    That's the whole point. The money isn't "tied up" at all. If I buy real estate someone else gets the money and does things with it.

    Xenophobia? Do you not understand the difference between a legal immigrant and an illegal immigrant?

  6. They also believe that rich people have a vast hoard of bills locked in a safe somewhere, taking that money out of circulation. Instead of investing it in stocks and bonds - essentially letting other people expand businesses and hire people with it. Or even have it in a bank account, where the bank then lends it all out (and then some - fractional reserve banking). No, but rich people are evil because hoarding cash!

  7. It will be later not sooner. Generally people have to be starving before revolution happens. People are not starving today. Quite the opposite.

    Did you actually read it? The "hate crime" is making SJWs reveal their hate for white people.

    White nationalist meme because a Newsweek article quoted a single tweet? Talk about fake news. Why is it fine to say "It's ok to be brown" or "It's ok to be gay" but not "It's ok to be white"?

    You do realize music existed for tens of thousands of years before the music industry existed, don't you?

    And both Vivaldi and Mozart died poor. In fact if it wasn't for patronage they probably wouldn't have been able to spend time composing at all. But there's something seriously wrong with an industry that turns some dude into a gazillionaire because he wrote a single "hit" and then sits back to collect royalties until the end of time. If anything this discourages future creativity -except from people who actually like creating new stuff. But those people would do it anyway - they don't do it for the financial "incentive".

    While we're at it let's exclude all the people who get skin cancer because they worked outside and never used sunblock. Let's exclude all the women with breast cancer who didn't get regular mammographies. Let's exclude all the birth defects that weren't aborted in early pregnancy, let's exclude all the people involved in motor vehicle accidents because they are all preventable, let's exclude all workplace injuries for not following correct safety procedures, let's exclude...

    I mean, why stop just at your list? You want to find reasons to "kick idiots out", there are plenty of reasons to kick everyone out. Hey let's go back to medieval thinking: if you get sick it's your fault, you must have done something to deserve it/make god angry/let the evil spirits in.

    You responded to a call to remove one white male

    The comment in question:

    It would be a pretty limp revolution if only one white male could be removed, I see no reason why it should end at Trump.

    Private and secret are synonyms within the English language.

    Contemplate this next time you're on someone's "secret property". Words can have multiple meanings and just because they share one meaning does not make them equivalent. Yes and I see that thesaurus you are privating into your pockets...

    They never said secret. They said private. In the same way that airport business class lounges are private to pretty much anyone with a credit card.
