About

Buddha teaches us to choose our company carefully, that a solitary existence is preferable to be accompanied by fools. He writes, in the Dhammapada, "It is better to live alone, there is no companionship with a fool; let a man walk alone, let him commit no sin, with few wishes, like an elephant in the forest." Luckily, I am not Buddhist, but I understand the ideal. Complications will be the death of a man, or at least the death of a man's worthwhile existence on this planet. But, I like complication. I like material things, and sexual gratification, and good food. I suppose I'm willing to work in order to get them, thus more or less cutting myself off from any form of spiritual enlightenment, all of which seem to ask us to deny the physical for the metaphysical.

But, y'know, that doesn't mean I really want to ******** talk to you. So don't PM me for no goddamn reason, ya mouthbreathing sonnuvabitches, capische?

Ban, I pose an economics question to you.

Let us say that a service is provided in an area (let's say protection via mercenaries) by a variety of private industries. If a group or individual was to constantly buy a great majority of the services (75% of the total protection services offered in the area, leaving 25% for the rest of the population), but do not buy the companies themselves, is it considered a monopoly?

Out of curiosity, what field (ethics, theology, epistemology, economics, politics, biology, etc.) do you tend to specialize in?

Economics is my weakness, but when you say 33.9% increase in the last five eyars, that means it was lower than the 6.2% profit margin last year, correct? Also, what exactly are revenue streams? Simply sources that provide income to a company?

Happy Birthday. Now I deserve something for my effort in saying something, though this is my perception. Seriously though, enjoy another year closer to death.
