    If stealing someone's work product isn't the same as "spending someone else's money" then what exactly is it, @Maurice??

    It's OK for a "capitalist" like Ted, but not OK for a "socialist", right? Your hard-wired pre-baked accusations are simply ridiculous.

    @Maurice: Nice weasel response. You had no problem with "getting into the cetusnews dispute" when you said that "But I guess in the socialist mind, spending someone else's money is hardwired."

    Now how about simply answering the question?

  • @PennyBonds Tells us a lot about your value system: You have no problem with someone arbitrarily denigrating another as a "socialist" but get all righteous when that same person is shown for what he is. General attacks on those not kowtowing to your personal beliefs are fine, but any response is a "personal attack". I guess it works for you and Maurice.
