Sure, I was wrong, does that tickle your pickle?

Getting rid of NAFTA will not bring businesses back, it will push them to even further markets with cheaper labor costs and thus raise consumer costs. You don't fear a race to the bottom? If the US were to drastically lower corporate taxes, who's to say other countries undercut theirs? Beggar thy neighbor policies and such.

It won't work, because then you start entering a prisoners dilemma. Trade agreements are good because they lower capital costs during production, which in essence SHOULD translate to lower costs for goods to end users.

And you dont think it has to do with the lower Iq levels among blacks or the perhaps there work ethic or there propensity for violence could be many factors do you think they should be hired just cause they black . ..laughable

Just so we are clear. This thread is going to end up closed because this asshole is a racist. We will not tolerate this shit on eroids. And if anyone cares to go back a couple pages this was just the tip of the iceberg. You can come back tomorrow but do not let me see you insulting anyone like that again.

Not trying to get banned too but I've seen these stats quoted in reputable social science. Maybe someone should counter his argument with opposing facts rather than banning him? Maybe IQ tests are biased? Maybe there are economic factors at play in crime? I don't agree with muscledawg's politics but he was a decent debater

With all due respect, if someone is wrong or ignorant you can counter their arguments with facts and expose their ignorance.

And I was enjoying lurking on this one, it was just getting good, I had popcorn popped and everything, damn...

The Impastable's picture

Describe reputable social science, because I have never heard this shit quoted... IQ tests are not a measure of intelligence, but rather a measure of test taking abilities.

Economic factors are always at play regarding crime, and the simple fact is crime is more prevalent in impoverished communities, regardless of race.

The Impastable's picture

You just proved my point, the fuck are you still going on about?

The Impastable's picture

They don't but whatever you say Steve. Not like you can be coached to get a higher score on an IQ exam or anything.

The Impastable's picture

IQ exams are just that - exams. They have a certain methodology behind their structure, and that methodology can be worked to gain higher scores.

But I'm done trying to reason with you stevie, you keep your IQ exams and your superior status, obergrupenfuhrer.

The most common I have seen quoted recently is "Race, Evolution, and Intelligence" by Linda Gottfredson

The Impastable's picture

I'll look into it, I can't say I've ever heard of it. I have heard of a similar study about race, evolution, and genetics and the author completely misrepresented geneticist data, to the point that over 100 of the actual geneticists came out and rebutted his shit.

Racial supremacy was almost a given in social science of past generations and it resulted in some really nasty shit happening in the 19&20th century. I think that because of that, we immediately dismiss any scientific discussion of inherited differences among different groups of people -race, religion, nationality etc. If there are real differences, we are not doing any good by ignoring them. That was my only point.

Pale's picture

You are missing the forest for the trees bro. We do not tolerate racism on Eroids, he clearly crossed over. And then instead of taking an overnight ban, he jumps right back in swinging. But truth is he was already on the mod radar for all of the incessant whining and shit stirring he did on the GBI SI. So the cumulative score is...

THE_MECHANIC's picture

I completely understand. He was obviously hiding some deep seated hatred, i was just hoping someone could prove him wrong. That being said, no need to put the site on the radar. Gear is one thing, being connected to extremist politics is a whole other level of scrutiny so I get it.

Not the right place for that type of discussion

Pale's picture

Arguing whether a race is inferior is an exercise in futility and it is one I am not going to entertain.

THE_MECHANIC's picture

Agreed. And if one were to be blessed with above average aptitude, it would be their responsibility to help the less fortunate rather than chest beat and point to their own superiority.

Fuckin Trump supporters, I keep wanting to like them.... and then they do this dumb shit

Pale's picture

And that is why he cannot and will not win.

Pale's picture

And now you are banned for good, good riddance. You are a whiney, racist and I am tired of seeing your name and your posts. Adios

tonytulo's picture

Did you say adios to prove your not racist or to suck up to me because I'm spanish lmfao

Pale's picture

Neither, I try to keep up on my simple Spanish in case I ever have to run. lol

tonytulo's picture

Lmfao right on.

The Impastable's picture

I thought cardio was a dirty word to you!

Pale's picture

I clearly said "in case"! lol

THE_MECHANIC's picture

hahaha, if you are going to an entire race's intelligence at least you the correct form of "their"

just my two cents

PIN_CUSHION's picture

This is why these type of posts shouldn't be allowed.

ironcarpenter52's picture

Exactly. This is some sensitive stuff to most. Politics and gear does not mix. It would have to be a real special blend. I'm independent also. Just on top.of that fence leaning one way to hear the other.

Pale's picture

Yea, you are likely right. If guys could just discuss without saying ridiculous, ignorant shit we could probably all learn something from each other. But that must be another crazy liberal dream of mine I guess. Truth is I am independent , but if you are not a tea partying, racist asshole, ready to go curb stomping the poor you are a liberal. Fuck it...

PIN_CUSHION's picture

All politics does is create a divide. Only thing we can do is vote. The way I see it my beliefs and values are mine and yours are yours. We could debate about it til we are both blue in the face, won't change a thing. Topics like this bring the worst out in people, because at the core we are filled with hate in some form or another.

The Impastable's picture

There was definitely some healthy debate in this thread, but Jesus fuck did this derail into a racist shit storm...

SenseiMiagi's picture

Sigh. This topic has derailed I believe.

THE_MECHANIC's picture

That's because they just get drunk, and then they get even...
Car bombs are louder than whining anyway
