<!--quoteo-->QUOTE <!--quotec-->So when I offer yet another source for information, Adam Smith is after all the father of capitalism, and quite possibly the greatest text I can offer you (which was offered to me by someone I greatly admire...not a book club), extend to you knowledge is power....the "open minded" liberal slaps it away and then plays the victim .... nah...thats not par for the course or anything.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
All I have to say to you Hemi is that you are seriously obtuse. What BT meant is that you insulted him by suggesting that he should read a book that anyone with any economic knowledge has read. Shit man, do you read his posts? BT is an intelligent person, of course he read Smith. I fucking read Smith, along with probably 75% of anyone who went to college. It's very condescending of you to make that suggestion.
Of course you don't even see that, you assume that BT only reads what supports his view. That is the most insulting notion of all.
You are so blinded by your assumptions that you cannot see what BT is even telling you.
You've lost a lot of credibility. You really need to step back and process things a little better, otherwise what you think is rational thought is just dogmatic ranting.

Some men are born mediocre, some men achieve mediocrity, and some men have mediocrity thrust upon them.
