How To Turn a Liberal Into a Capitalist - 101

Doesn't wash... the typical "liberal" is more concerned with justice and equality than they are with the mere "redistribution of wealth". So no, ripping off their business would only prove to show them you are a typical Republican selfish prick. Not to say that YOU are a typical republican selfish prick... I'm saying that's someone who willfully rips off a business, just to prove a point.

Only the tip went someplace else, not what was due on the tab, which has profit built into the price. No one was ripping anyone off or was being selfish; quite the opposite.

Oh, my bad. What could be more Republican than making a proletarian work for free, while supporting their corporate overlord.

Let's face facts.

Conservatives think they can go around screwing the "other guy" without screwing themselves. Try going back to that same restaurant, and see how you like it when faced with the consequences of your actions.

Conservatives = short sighted & selfish

explain how Obamas redistribution is any different?

Please provide fact based links of the redistribution you are crying about.

Your entire seed is predicated upon a myth (lie) and you offer no proof. Taking a page out of the Faux News playbook or just emulating Glen Beck?

Hell, I'm willing to bet you don't even know what form of capitalism you support.

explain how Obamas redistribution is any different?

No, it is you who needs to explain, first, what IS this Obama redistribution you speak of. Taxes were much higher under Saint Ronnie, remember those halcyon days of economic prosperity?

Second, How is it that you think you can decimate programs like Medicare, Social Security, Food Stamps, Unemployment or the Affordable Care Act without in the end decimating the programs you yourself will take part in. Can you say Ayn Rand? Remember her?? The hypocrite who spent her life denouncing such programs, and in the end, found herself forced to partake in the very same programs she denounced in order to not become homeless. "Welfare queens" "leeches" and "do nothings" are always the other guy. Whenever it's you who use these programs, they become necessary.

I am there at least three times a week... and it is a bar...

I'm guessing the place is big enough to where you can get away with stiffing the bartender and still be able to get service. But most places pool tips and it's a one for all, all for one camaraderie among employees. You'll never realize you've been stinkpalmed until after the fact. Even if you drink bottled beer, there is ample opportunity for someone to slip a nasty finger along the rim of that bottle. And there's always an opportunity for the bartender to turn his back to you. Have fun!

It's not exactly theft of services. It is very comparable to expecting to be taken care of without having paid into the system. Gee, where have I heard that before, Ayn? Congratulations, you have become the very type of leech you spend your days deriding.

Well, captain,

What is obvious is that you have no idea either what a liberal or a capitalist is since you confuse a political ideology with an economic concept.

In other words - FAIL!

Having been a bartender and a server, I can say with near certainty that you are full of @!$%#.

First rule of bartending - No politics; no religion; sports only if you are in a sports bar and know your audience.

Secondly - a 50% tip? Unless you're buying $2 beers - or you really don't understand what capitalism is - the majority leave a buck a drink.

If you do do this then you're simply an ass and deserve to be treated like one.

once they understand how redistribution affects them personally...

instant capitalist.

Yep!

SOoo...

You say they've run off all the liberal bartenders. And you run a cash tab which you pay for all at once at the end of the night.

So adding 2 + 2, your story is just a bunch of hot air. Or do you run a tab all night, except for when it's the one liberal bartender in which case you pay for your drinks on the spot, even though you're running a tab?

I smell some Texas B.S.

• So there are no liberal bartenders at this place anymore.
• You run a tab until the end of the night.
• You only stiff the liberal bartenders.
• The bar pools tips.
• It's no fun to stiff a liberal for just one drink.

It's kind of fun to watch you b.s. your way around like a typical Texan. Oh, and nice editing my words without the elipsis, Chris Wallace.

Awesome analogy COS.

The central core of of modern liberalism has always been "helping" people with everybody else's money except their own. Your skit validates that they'll never put their own money where their mouth is and expose them as the hypocrits that they are..
