This personal waterfall shows you all of Moderatemark's arguments, looking across every debate.

Americans are British. They just don't realize it. They think the same, they fuck the same. A lot of fucking shit in common. They're just not as good at being British as the British are. There are niggers and Jews in both countries, so both will ultimately fail. Fuck 'em. There's always Canada.

Religion was invented because Adam had a small penis. He was the first Man and God hadn't exactly figured out yet the he'd need a cucumber to satisfy the bitch.

There are no original ideas. There's nothing new under the sun. Your ideas have been bought sold and bought again. Accept that.

The chief difference between Government and Business is that a business MUST make a profit, while a public service is provide because it meets an overall social.... you know fuck it I'm tired of arguing with fucking people. Fuck you! Fuck you! Fuck you!

Please don't even go there. I'm financial professional, who's traded commodities, currencies, and stocks for 20 years. I've worked for some of the biggest firms on the Street. I have an MBA and CFA. This is what I do for a living! When it comes to THIS, I KNOW what I'm talking about.

Honestly, it's the kids that I knew who grew up in families that we're like "here have a drink" that had a better relationship with alcohol in the long-run than those who never drank when they were young. Most of my friends were from German Catholic families. It was no big deal at all for them to have beer or two when they were as young as ten. Because they grew up with alcohol, it wasn't any big deal to them. It was just a drink.

I grew up in a conservative Baptist family. I didn't even smell a beer until I was in college.

And because I had never drank I didn't have any clue on how to handle it. It got ugly... Stayed ugly.

Well, I supposed it's existed this long without my knowing about it. So, it's just as easy to believe that it will continue to exist without my caring about it.

Really, really f*ing stoned. We're not talking about Grandma's glaucoma medication. We're talking about like a week at a Phish concert.

And if the dollar hadn't lost any value, it would currently cost the Europeans 2.7 million Euros to buy a $30,000 U.S. car. American exports would be virtually non-existent because no one would be able to afford anything that we make. We think we have unemployment problems now: imagine a society that exports nothing! We'd no longer be the largest economy in the world. You can't just look at the dollar. You have to look at it in terms of the world market. This is why it needs to be regulated by people that know that they're doing!

They're jealous. They haven't been able to get a hold of the good stuff.

Yes, it keeps the currency in line with the global economy and insures that we don't become less competitive because our currency is overvalued.

No, I'm sorry. I looked at the photos. All I saw was bunch of stars. I didn't see a lion or anything. I guess I'm just not that highly evolved.

Everyone I've met who's seen a ghost had something else wrong with them at the same time. The doctor switched my Aunt's medication one time and she asked me to go into the living room and to ask those people in there to leave. Of course, there weren't any people in there. My aunt was hallucinating. Not everything that people see is real.

I don't think that we should pay "teachers" sixty thousand dollars a year to hand out dodge balls to children. I think teachers should "teach" a core curriculum of grammar, reading, mathematics, science, and history. Everything else should be taught on a elective basis by community organizations. No one should should fail school for failing art or music. I think children should be free to explore elective topics that they're interested in.

It could be a sport, it could be music, it could even be religion. I just don't think that these things should be taught by teachers. You can go to the YMCA or a civic center or the Church of the Offkey Choir.

I'm going to go as Mormon missionary, running for Congress.

I have really only heard one semi-effective argument against Obama.

Mostly, what I hear is that he's Muslim, Kenyan, or Black. Frankly, if he had blond hair and blue eyes, the outcome would look a lot different. When I'm surrounded by just white people and they feel a little more relaxed to use the N-word, that's mostly what I hear.

I don't watch a lot of anime, but I like the old style Godzilla steps on Tokyo kind of shit.

Sure, no one actually has to live in LIechtenstein, right? You're free to emigrate out of the country?

Star Wars... Is that pure imagination, or did Ewoks reveal themselves to George Lucas at some point in time? Avatar... Did mystical indians really reveal themselves to James Cameron? Spiderman... Did Stan Lee encounter a web-slinging boy who was the victim of a freak accident? Is it your supposition that everything imagined had at some point revealed itself to those who imagined it?

It really began in the 1960s. A preponderance of the Civil Rights Acts was drafted and put in place by Democrats. Furthermore, blacks benefited considerably from the social programs of that time. When you're poor, you tend to like Democratic programs because they're more socialist in nature. The wealthier you become the more you tend to dislike them. Look at Herman Cain. A billionaire black man! What party is he with?

Honestly, I don't think that most people --even those who call themselves Christians--- actually believe in Jesus. I think it's just more of a cultural tradition, something you sign up for (like auto insurance) just in case. I think most Christians actually have a good number of doubts about Jesus as their personal savior.

the Dream is Over

It's politics and there's less than 70 days until the election. It's time for shaking babies and kissing hands.

The idea of "group currency" sounds like a good idea, but there are a good number of reasons why it is not. The ability of your central bank to set interest rates needs to be commiserate with its ability to access credit risk. You have a number of different economies that are under one umbrella (when clearly they are not the same type of economy). So, they have different credit risk. Spain, Italy, and Greece are still largely agrarian in nature, while Germany is more of an industrial economy. France has a little of both but is significantly larger. Putting everyone under the same currency does not homogenize the risk. It simply shifts risk to a central bank at a less than favorable rate. Germany continues to drag its feet, because apart from saving the Euro, there's nothing in it for them. It's a lose-lose scenario.
