Why zot JasonC? That last post of his was excellent and to the point.

If you call persistent ad hominem attacks on those with whom you disagree "excellent and to the point", you're on the wrong site.

FR is Jim's site, he can zot whomever he likes.

BTW Jim, I'll be a monetarily contributing member again, as soon as my promotion kicks in. It's been really difficult trying to cover the bills and college for two kids on a GS-7's pay, after being unemployed for 12 out of the last 24 months.

Persistent ad hominem attacks are nearly a trade mark of FR. Is something changing? The only place I’ve seen that enforced is on Religion threads.

What is “excellent and to the point” is that populism is dangerous to liberty. Jacksonian populism leads in a direct thread to todays modern liberal/Leftist. It is something to be avoided and many conservatives seem susceptible to it.

Corporatism is a direct outgrowth of big government. We need to be conservatives, not radicals, surgeons not butchers. We don’t want anarchy, but improvement. Those are the points that JasonC makes.

I don’t like his attitude and he’s misdirected his wrath at me. His social skills are very low. Yet, I’ve not seen him warned as the Religion Mods do to cease and desist.

This isn’t a thin skinned site and he posts facts to attacks in a 20 to 1 ratio easily. Take a look at his posting history. He knows more and is more accurate than most posters on economics, finance and the history of economics.

That FR is Jim’s site is tautology. I believe in private property and appreciate Jim’s incredible work sustaining and increasing conservatisms voice in America. He can zot whomever he likes. Thus my appeal to him to reconsider in JasonC’s case.
