There is a certain thing called legitimacy. I do think that debate on this forum is not limited to politeness as our RAT competitors would have it. Debate is raucous and we should be also. When I see BS I think the proper way to respond is by naming it such. When I see a drunken stupor in the middle of a debate I think the right way to respond is to tell my opponent to sober up and call me in the morning. Am I wrong?

Well I am in over my head on this thread as some of you seem to be educated economists. So you are in a much better position then I to spot a Bull Sh*ter. And I have no problem with calling a BSer a BSer.

That said, Southack, does play fast a loose with his arguments but he can be nailed down. I know this because I have nailed him once or twice myself on this very thread. So I while disagree with his world view I find him consistent in presenting it and reasonable in his arguments. But like I said, I might be easily fooled on this topic, and have to google to fact check.
