    Yep, ignore the actual findings (they’re hard and there’s maths) just smear the guy.

    The actual findings? The “actual findings” are skewed and incomplete.
    And when a clown like Krugman praises the book in these hysterical-girly terms, you just know it’s shit:
    ‘Columnist Paul Krugman said it was “the most important economics book of the year — and maybe of the decade.’
    and:
    ‘He all but ignores both the huge overall advance in prosperity in the last century and the societal benefits that come with a prosperous and property-owning middle class. ‘…He thinks a great deal about how governments have taxed the rich less in the last few decades, but pays almost no attention to how the authorities have helped the relatively poor.
    Such gaps lead to a picture of the world that is barely recognisable. Sympathetic readers may be willing to overlook Piketty’s many blind spots. But their uncritical enthusiasm could easily make them look foolish. Ultimately, Piketty-worship will weaken the reasonable political case for pay restraint.’

    We realize leftards are desperately looking for a red messiah, but Picketty ain’t him.

    “He all but ignores both the huge overall advance in prosperity in the last century and the societal benefits that come with a prosperous and property-owning middle class.”

    If you can explain how somebody who calls himself an economist can do that and pretend to have a prescription for fixing anything more complex than a pound hammer then do tell us, Sargent Brown.

    The advance in prosperity is a consequence of state investment in education, healthcare, infrastructure, R&D and so on. The sort of things you hate.

    BAWAAAAHAHAHAHAHA! http://falfn.com/CrusaderRabbit/wp-content/plugins/wp-monalisa/icons/wpml_yahoo.gif
    That qualifies as this year’s most pig-ignorant, gibbering clown wrong-headed assholic comment.
    Congratulations–your signed copy of Robert Mugabe’s essay on economic theory is in the mail. :lol:
    Perhaps too, you should check what’s written at the top of the right sidebar>>> (the right is on the same side as the hand you probably use….never mind. Why belabor the obvious?)

    This little gen pulls the mask off-
    “A lot of progress can be done at the national level, especially for large countries like the U.S., which has one quarter of world’s GDP. So we don’t have to ask permission of other countries to move in the direction of a progressive wealth tax. The United States could transform its property tax system into a progressive tax on net worth without asking permission to the rest of the world.”

    That is hardcore wealth confiscation and nothing more.The property tax system is the most evil and insidious tax of all and it has been used to destroy more wealth belonging to the middle class than any other tool.They want to tax you on property you own that was acquired with money you have already paid taxes on.Furthermore they want to continue taxing that property over and over year after year and always at an increasing rate.If you can no longer pay the tax,your property is taken from you and now belongs to the government. Of course the lie used by the left to justify this is “equality and helping the poor” and “will only affect the richest 1%” yet invariably it always hits the middle class hardest.

    Kim Jong Un, the hero of the left! Actually he’s beginning to grow on me a bit……… :mrgreen:

    North Korea calls President Barack Obama a “clown”, a “dirty fellow” and somebody who “does not even have the basic appearances of a human being”.

    “He is a crossbreed with unclear blood,”

    “still has the figure of monkey while the human race has evolved through millions of years”

    “It would be perfect for Obama to live with a group of monkeys in the world’s largest African natural zoo and lick the bread crumbs thrown by spectators.”

    “Helping the poor” eh…..the poor get more than enough effing help:
    ‘Half of families receive more in welfare payments than they pay in income tax, new figures reveal.’

    http://www.news.com.au/finance/money/half-of-families-pay-no-net-tax-if-welfare-benefits-deducted-new-figures-reveal/story-e6frfmci-1226910739573

    What socialist scum will never admit is that all welfare does is destroy the middle class and the recipients. But socialists do very nicely out of churning other people’s hard-earned money through their bureaucracy into the welfare system. By the time a dollar reaches the end-users, it’s worth around 28c.
    Bastards.

    If government had anything to with the improvement of living standards, then how do you explain “The Great Leap Forward” made in the West during the 19th century when mankind jumped from the Age of Agriculture to the Industrial Revolution made possible by millions of rugged individualists without government aid?

    1. The only Economics book everyone in the world should be required to read – Thomas Sowell’s Basic Economics. I forced my kids to read it as a requirement for them to continue living under my roof.

    2. The fact that socialism has never worked, anywhere it has been tried, ought to be a clue that there might be a bit of smoke and mirrors in Piketty’s theories.

    3. The fact that Obama, who has done more to transfer wealth than any President in our history, is also presiding over its worst post WWII economy (and even that is only because the fed has the printing presses working 24/7) ought to be a clue.
