As I suspected, although there are a number of posts in reply to this thread, NONE of the posts refute ANYTHING in Nugent's editorial!
Not a single one!
No one even tried!
There are however, twenty-one (21) Ad hominem attacks directed against Nugent or myself! Nothing, repeat, nothing in response to Nugent's opinion, save one or two posts in support!
There are of course a few posts which approach hijacking but that's OK; I hadn't expected much more. It should be remembered that the Ad Hominem attack is the last bastion of the so-c and therefore lashes out like a small child denied a cookie! I was a bit surprised at the venom expressed by the "liberals" in this thread, which I find rather odd as most of the people on this forum are hard-working independent businessmen and women, who I would have thought would have expressed just a bit more interest in the manner in which small business is being taxed, the individual is being taxed and the manner in which large business is being supported and even "bailed out" by the Obama administration but not a word.
Libertarians and conservatives THINK, while liberals "feel"; mostly around in the dark IMHO but that is another story for another day.
Sallly.
