For freedtraders the ultimate measure of all things is money and profit.

Really? Which free traders said that? Where?

It is visible - they put market principle over others again and again. If it were not true you could present which principles they put higher than market profit or financial gain. If you think it is otherwise SHOW ME! I challenge you!

Why would you not?

Adding 400 million Muslims would be bad. Adding 400 million poor people would be bad. Adding 400 million people who didn't speak English would be bad.

Are there some principles higher than personal gain?

American culture is important. Something that would so radically change it should be decided by the voters.

You just can't provide any examples.

I challenge you!

Nice try!

Do not hide behind US flag. If free market ideology were true it would apply to other cultures as well. Show me what principles, the free traders put above free market?

EASY try. I know that you are wrong and YOU know it. You are not able to come up with the answer.

What is free market ideology?

So prove it.

Let me try this one on you, if you insist on discussing philosophy. I do not burglarize my neighbor's house, even though he hasn't been home for weeks, and I could even call him to make sure he's at his other house.

I could profit immensely from doing so, at literally no risk. Yet I do not burglarize my neighbor's house. Why?

That's what happens when banks and insurance companies run things. You get alot of fat fast talking jerks living off industrious folks and thinking it's their birthright.

I do not know as it seems inconsistent. Can you tell me?

What? Prove that you do not have higher principles? Well, I cannot, you might have some but well hidden. If so could you share this mystery with us?

My challenge was to find out if you have such higher principles or not. So far you keep evading it.

Frightening. I'm imagining someone sitting terrified in the dark (or in front of a computer), waiting for a free-trader to break-in and steal the peanut butter.

While it has its problems, this makes MUCH more sense than giving blanket amnesty to millions of invaders and criminals.

Prove your original claim.

For freedtraders the ultimate measure of all things is money and profit. The only reason why they would not bring "400 million Muslims to the US" or did not convert to Islam is that they might consider it risky or unprofitable. Simple like that.

Please include sources for all your proof. Thanks.

I guess that explains why he prefers socialism. No peanut butter to be stolen.

But A.Pole IS a SOCIALIST! He can't help it. In his heart of hearts, he longs for the days of Communist Poland and wants those same dictates implemented on all Americans.

Of course I said "free trade" not trade.

I like what you said once: "Why should I move to Mexico? I have a maid and a platoon of gardeners here."
