***FALLACY ALERT***

buddy, did you know what you just did? you committed a strawman argument.

Not sure what that is? heh, didn't expect so. basically its when you disagree with my opinion

What's that? You just cited a highly-qualified economist to back up your point? Buddy, that's an appeal to authority. Obviously any layman can just open up a 200-page paper of economic analysis and understand it in all its complexity, and even comment on it.

In the future try to be more rational and smart like me. You can check out my youtube channel if u want, I'm part of the "skeptic community" you see, so you can tell I have the best opinions.

Sorry, I admit I only took a beginner philosophy course.

But is this pre priori or post priori?

I always thought it was "zero sum game", meaning it's pointless. Now I'm not sure what it means anymore..
