I'm not a fan of what's happening, but I have yet to see any viable alternatives proposed. Unless you've got one, shut the fuck up, all you're doing is complaining to hear yourself complain. Besides, it's only been two months. Things won't get better overnight. |

When someone's solution to fixing a fire is to throw gasoline on it, you bet I can complain. Saying this happened because of Republicans is stupid and shortsighted.
Also what about the viable alternative of letting businesses who ran themselves into failure... fail? |

Main Entry:
1ob·li·gate Listen to the pronunciation of 1obligate Pronunciation: \ˈä-blə-ˌgāt\ Function: transitive verb Inflected Form(s): ob·li·gat·ed; ob·li·gat·ing Etymology: Latin obligatus, past participle of obligare Date: 1533 1 : to bind legally or morally : constrain 2 : to commit (as funds) to meet an obligation so... Unless you don't pay rent, then I guess you are obligated to someone. Among other things, of course. Work, for example. again, is this something to be proud of? not morally bound to anyone? Must be really lonely. Although I would say you are obligated to take care of your dog... |

this "selfish" crap is just a way to spin things to suit your own dogma. you can go ahead and pretend you aren't obligated to do anything, you "choose" to do it but any rational, sensible person with half a brain would realize that's such a tremendous load of shit. Are you not obligated to your family in any way? Are you that selfish? Like if someone in the immediate family dies are you not obligated to go to their funeral? Seriously, stop being dumb. You're injecting the word "choice" into a word that according to the dictionary, which you instructed me to reference, has nothing to do with choice. You can choose to ignore obligations but they're still obligations. Just because you can choose to honor/not honor something that is an obligation, viz a viz, rent, (which is a committal of funds to satisfy a legally binding contract) doesn't miraculously mean it's not an obligation. Or were you instructing me to reference the Nimrod Dictionary of American English because I don't know where I can find that. Last edited by Trotskilicious : 04-01-2009 at 09:54 PM. |

a contract i voluntarily signed! seriously you can't be this dense. you just can't. when have i ever led you to believe that i didn't believe in legally binding contracts signed voluntarily? they are also providing me a service... it's commerce.

haha
you are still reading meaning into the word obligation that isn't there. there's nothing that says it's not voluntary or by choice. i'm not sure how you think you become obligated to something or someone but, there really isn't a lot about your mind that makes any kind of rational sense. marriage is an obligation of choice. having children is an obligation of choice. seriously guy, you lose. you might as well delete these posts because you just look like an utter tool. |

nimrod, just because you're willingly shortsighted in regards to you relationship with the rest of the planet, doesn't mean you don't owe anything to it.

You seem to be espousing how people are born owing other people monetary compensation simply for existing.

I don't think even you know what you're talking about anymore, you're just trying to troll and argue.

Nimrod shouldn't have said that you can get by living in a city without obligating yourself to someone at all. If someone is wanting to be hypercritical about it and take it painfully literally, then sure, that statement is wrong. There is a baseline level of obligation you must submit to in order to get by in modern society even if you're just out for yourself. But on the other hand, everyone else has been shifting freely between specific moral and legal obligations to you and yours (eg. pay your taxes, support your family) and vague, pie-in-the-sky, "everyone's all in this together" BS and treating them as though they're the same concept. In reality, those are two different things with two wholly different sets of implications. I don't think you have to reject the former to reject the latter. Perhaps what Nimrod meant was "Perhaps you're not aware but it is possible to live in a city and still not be obligated to everyone else." |
