Quote from Brass:
They already do! Every time I explained Keynesian policy as Keynes had intended (rather than how it was merely blamed), my remarks are either ignored or purposefully taken out of context. I refuse to revisit that rabbit hole. Your question wasn't really a question, it was a posture. And I choose not to give it legs at my expense. Seriously, mav, I've had my fill of you for a time. I have less trouble responding in kind to guys like peil and phoenix because I never respected them.
See, I agree with you that both sides do it. Never said anything to the contrary. My question was why do "you" do it? Again, this is a message board. There really are no rules per se. But if you willingly wish to have a discussion with someone, there has to be back and forth. And don't try to play the "quality of content card". This is ET where even the "serious" trading threads above have little to no quality content. The basement is usually expected to be worse. So no one here is expecting top shelf dialogue. But we do expect actual dialogue. I mean that is the minimum bar we have to hit. I have tried in the past, and in some cases came awfully close to having an intelligent conversation with you. Then you get to the point where you pull a Bachmann and start reading the teleprompter. That will obviously frustrate anyone trying to talk to you. And that causes the dialogue to degenerate.
Just something for you to think about.
