    You may lead off sir when the Jim has the thread set up


    How do you tell a communist? Well, it's someone who reads Marx and Lenin. And how do you tell an anti-Communist? It's someone who understands Marx and Lenin.

    The topic: government created corporations being funded by private enterprise; who then pass on part of the cost in the form of fees-- does or doesn't constitute a tax from an economic POV.
    Your statement isn't clear. Could you please clarify?

    Oh the Speeling Police are out!!! Please go back and review your spelling over the last 48 hours - Kat would have failed your ass

    As far as the wrong forum I did not know Jim started a Pond Scum forum where you could post and others could respond

    In the meantime please do me and most of the posters here and just STFU

    Was wondering myself, not looking good. I know RSR said he was going to be working some crazy hours, but I haven't seen him online posting since this debate started. He usually would at least pop in, even if for a post or 2. Hopefully things are alright with him. But yeah, almost time to claim a W via forfeit for The Log.

    Hey Log - isn't this the 2nd debate in a row where things stalled and the opposing member went AWOL?

    Log, and I are discussing topics for a one on one. We'd prefer something where we could each debate the opposite of what we believe, but having a hard time choosing a topic.
