He paid you? How much did you get?
So are you saying people can't make voluntary agreements until they are a certain age, or are you saying if you don't like the agreement others have made or if the agreement is held to be generally reprehensible by the given society it occurs in that it is not a voluntary agreement?
Or are you saying you suck at backing up your points and quickly go to distractions?

Sorry if I was unclear or mistaken. If you pay for somebody by your choice, regardless of their age, I have no problem with that.
If a system is implemented that insists others pay for somebody against their will, I have a problem with that.
If a system is implemented that forces private business to bend to an arbitrary age limit set by government what do we have then? Why should government decide what a private business will do any more than they should decide what a private person would do?
If government left business alone, there would be a market need waiting to be met, a business opportunity would exist. Market needs are fulfilled by the free market, not the controlled market.
Artificial manipulation and regulation of free markets is the problem, not the solution. For example the "war on drugs" has created an artificial market. Without government intervention, pot prices would be much lower. Take regulation away and the truly free market will drive prices down.

Not all 17 year old males spent their high school days crapping their pants and reaching into their drawers to make cave drawings on the tile walls of Wendys.
If a 17 year old male (a minor) made a consensual agreement with a hot 21 year old woman to get it on, is it a voluntary interaction?
What constitutes voluntary? The act a person agrees to or whether other people would also agree to it ?
BTW- You can't argue for shit, Poopy Pants.

I think I said you made a voluntary agreement with "the bad man".
As far as I know you created the rest.
However you could now describe to me what you believe a voluntary agreement consists of and then we could discuss that.
So....what makes an agreement involuntary and what makes it voluntary? Scared to debate? I think so.

I think you meant "which age" .
You seem obsessed with this line of questioning and completely unable to answer the questions I've asked you.
Also, it's a little creepy to think of you and the bad man. I suppose you must have really liked Peanut butter and jelly huh ?
To answer, your question, I don't know. I suppose it depends on how much you liked peanut butter as a kid.
So, when do you come out with the "and I will leave the site forever thing"? I really miss those.
Which age do you think a person is able to make a voluntary agreement ?
Does the nature of a persons agreement change whether it is voluntary or not?

Sorry, but you can't have it both ways. ~Pro-Chinese purchases + Anti-Chinese rhetoric = Bullshit doublespeak~.

And BTW I have not confused the definition of any words - try google images of self-aggrandizing American, I bet his pic will be in the top 10 relevant hits.

In a sense I agree, but in his position there are other things to consider.

In a publicly traded company you are legally obligated to maximize your profits where you can without violating the law otherwise. I don't know how many of his enterprises are public, I don't imagine many. But you can also wind up with legal obligations to other investors to do the same thing in a private setting as well. I suspect he would not hide from this issue if it were raised to him.

That said, I don't think he has much of a chance, nor do I really think he'd be a good President. It seems like we're getting setup for another Clinton to be quite honest. None of the Republican candidates have a chance I don't think.

The fact you had to preclude such an accusation alone should be evidence enough of it being wrong

The "This is fucked up, but it's legal".. defense doesn't hold much weight with me, personally..

It's more than legal, it's the law. You are legally required to take the lowest bid on the same product. I agree that it isn't right. I wouldn't worry about Trump either way. He's a side show for the time being and that's probably how he will remain.

He is supposed to be a sideshow. That's what happens when you hire Vince Mcmahon to run the RNC.
Im kidding. But it does seem like the WWE. Scripted

It is simply not true that a publicly traded company is legally obligated to maximize profits, and only when they are violating laws can they not seek maximum profits.

I can list, off the top of my head, a dozen publicly traded companies whose sole purpose is NOT maximizing profits.

but it's a great right wing talking point though. one of them says it and the rest of the idiots repeat it.

in reality...

http://www.quora.com/Corporations/To-what-extent-are-U-S-companies-legally-obligated-to-maximize-profits-for-shareholders

The requirement is that the management is obligated to act in the interests of the shareholders. In most cases, the courts will defer to the judgment of management as to what the interests of the shareholders are, and management has the authority to decide not to maximize profit if they do not think it is in the best interest of the company.

There is one narrow exception to this which is the Revlon rule

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rev....

If the board decides to auction off a company, it must to do to the highest bidder. If you decide to sell off the company, I bid $5/share, you bid $3/share, and you sell to someone else, then the court may rule that you should have sold the company to me.

This is a very narrow holding. If I go up to a company and offer to buy them out, they can say no. However, once they say yes, then the table is open for any higher offers.

Trump is a terrific self promoting buffoon.

Regardless, the media still finds the need to egregiously misrepresent the facts regarding Trump and his controversial pronouncements.
https://sharylattkisson.com/fact-check-the-washington-post-on-donald-trump-and-john-mccain/
It makes me wonder why they do not report the truth regarding Trump and his wayward tongue.

At least Trump is shaking things up.
Turning traditional political behavior on it's head. This guy actually says what is on his small mind...refreshing in any event.
IMO, this is a good thing, even though Trump has less chance of becoming POTUS than Bernie Sanders.

Lets just see if trump hangs in there, it's early and his numbers are climbing like Bernie's and I would look forward to a debate between Trump and whoever it maybe. And I am telling everyone right now, if Trump is the only one that would legalize pot in all 50 states I would vote for him.

I actually would enjoy Trump receiving the nomination as the GOP candidate. I actually register Repuke just so I can vote for that kind of shit in the primary. GOP has nothing to offer, so why no Chump ...oops Trump.

Now when the General election rolls around ;)
