If you knew an obsolete military industry existed that was operational, but useless, would jobs alone be enough to support it?

that's less of a check on someone's understanding of economics and more of a demonstration of stupidity on the part of the person asking such a ridiculous question.

why? It shows a baseline understanding how economics work in a society. Are you the guy who thinks poverty would go away if min wage were a million a year? Please say yes.
I also notice our favorite racist sock-puppet likes a lot of your posts, kindred spirits and all that I guess.

never said disabled people were non-productive, in fact, i've said the exact opposite. By non-productive I mean non-productive. I'm not a liberal so I don't speak in code and I'm not politically correct. You don't have to try to read into what I said to find out what I meant.
I've been poor, fortunately I had family I could live with until I straightened myself out. What my family would not allow however, was for me to not have a plan to rectify my situation. Those that don't have the family support I had need help from other avenues, but not in the form of raising the next 4 generations (like our war on poverty has done, think about that, 4th generation welfare, maybe we are doing something wrong). I believe in training programs geared toward someone's interest and ability. I also believe that if those avenues are open to you but you decide to be a leach anyway, we poor salt on you.
I think all law abiding American citizens should have the constitutional right to own and bear guns if they so choose.
Why punish the law abiding citizens for the mistakes of the few?

I don't know his stance, but you're a freeloader. That's why you're a progressive. So no, it's not generalizing what beenthere and Freedomworks says. In nature you'd be eaten. But that's not how humanity works. I'm polite, so I'll say it first. You're welcome.

Actually, guns were the topic turbo. Nature eats me all the time. People like you are incapable of so much higher reasoning.....it is unfortunate. Ironically, if you said that to me in person I assure you would be applying for disability once they reattached your tongue.

Now that's funny. You can beat me up, but can't get off your lazy ass long enough to find a job. Progress for the win!

Thanks to old conservatives who broke the economy!
Fun facts:
States run by conservative are more poor than democratically led states. Red states are generally the "takers" everyone complains about. Liberal states have to pay for the poor ignorant conservative states. Welfare is used more often in red states than blue states.
I leave you with this to think about:

Your problem not mine. Blame your parents for faulty genetics. My parents were losers on the dole like you. But I overcame.

You became a twit who trolls disabled people that got injured in a car accident. Fuck off. Stem cells will cure this and we will see who the loser really is.

People like me are the ones who do that research. My tax dollars pay for that, you don't even say thanks. You think I owe you. I don't owe you shit, pal. You're an ungrateful twit. Again, you're welcome.

Dude You don't have any money to steal.
You admitted to receiving EARNED INCOME TAX...big sign that you make under 32,000 a year. You do also understand that when you receive EARNED INCOME TAX CREDIT you are getting FREE money from your government. Don't sound to self-sufficient to me. In short you don't even pay taxes. Do you need me to link your quotes about what you have said in the past ???
