Title: Is the Broken Window Fallacy ignored because of rich elitism?
Post by: MrBogosity on April 30, 2014, 01:49:58 PM
Okay, so, kid breaks a window, guy has to fix the window, can't buy a suit as a result. The window is seen, the suit is unseen.

But for many of us, it's not always unseen. Case in point: yours truly.

I have a few things I've been saving up for. For example, there's this gizmo:

(http://tascam.com/content/images/universal/products/799/main.jpg)

It attaches between a tripod or other mount and a DSLR and gives the DSLR everything it's missing in audio, including multiple balanced/unbalanced mic inputs, monitoring, peak protection, etc. And it has a cable out where you can plug it into your DSLR's mic in, without having to record it to a separate track and sync it in post (as I've been doing for years).

Awesome gadget for less than $200!

So I'm coming home from dropping my daughter off at school when the Check Engine light comes on. Turns out, I need $400 worth of work done to my car. No DR-60D for me. :(

I feel this kind of stuff all the time on a budget. If I were as rich as statist morons accuse me of being, I probably wouldn't notice as much. I could afford to fix my car AND get the Tascam.

So, how come I notice this kind of stuff all the time, and they deny it even when it's spelled out to them?

Could it be that THEY'RE the ones being rich elitists?

Sorry to hear about that, man. :(  And yeah, projection is pretty much the MO of statists.

Coming on top of the YouTube troubles definitely didn't help.

well, things will hopefully work out. Have you heard anything back about the whole "can't upload long videos" bullshit?

1. Shane, what does that thing do?

2. Of course Statists are going to be the rich elitists, so are the very poor, the one doesn't want you broadcasting anything against them, the other is jealous of what they do not have.

3. My best wishes for your success.

Nope. Worst case scenario, as long as they don't slam my channel with false flags again, I'll get it all back in six months...

well that's bullshit.

that leaves one question then: is it possible for a youtube account to have two different money accounts? so that a video would go towards filling one account's coffers, and another another coffer? if so, then I think I have an idea.

No, I think it's all tied to the individual.
