anyone else notice a contradiction?

when was this the issue?
I'm pointing out that sovies collapsed because of economy, and that the corruption that ensued was because of that economic collapse. it really has nothing to do with government
although I dont agree with you on that point  

How can corruption have nothing to do with government. Please explain this, really please, use your oh so much supperior knowledge of politics and poli-sci to explain to my poor commoner mind.

when any government would have the corruption

oh come on, you don't need my obvious superiority to understand this.

I really do Oh Great Schem, tell me what knowledge of the world you posses that allows you to make all of thse fool-hardy assumptions. Please tell me where your knowledge comes from so I can drink from its pool with the golden ladel of Ignorance.

they aren't foolhardy, they're well documented and supported.

for someone with a halfass arguement in just about every thread, you sure are arrogant.

Show me the documents, show me suppor that isnt yours.



Never denyed it did I? No, and its not part of my real arguement. Its just a simple crtique. Which you keep dodging. Wheres your "oh so mighty" suppor that always seems to win?

what again am I dodging? the fact that communism would have done as poorly?
as for proof:
I'll get it tomorrow. one more post and I'm hitting the hay.

No, where do you get this sudden knowledge of everything. It seems every single thing we discuss you seem to know so much about. Its amazing how I keep up with a genius like you around....

well, great emperor, some Americans seem to know about everything =D i found this type of person on other forum as well. Their get their facts from government pages, their historians(never read another just Americans), they think they info is never wrong and trust what they being told a 100% without questioning. So they come to places like here and argument with they truth.
Ignore them.

If am wrong about you schematicsninja, please tell were do you get your info.

College courses. thats how.
except the economy related stuff, that comes from growing up with a Financial Advisor as a parent (trying to keep money from being put in the bank is IMPOSSIBLE)

from being a frigging genius!

hey, wiki is international! (and a rarely use it. but when I do need info its more than reliable enough)

and I know these types. the Euros who think everyone around them (especially those damned degnerate americans!) must be lesser.

we all have our flaws, so lets stop pointing them out.

Ok college courses and you dad thats it? ok thats good, but that one side of the story,have you read any russian books or news or talk to anyone that live there and have a very good knowlodge of russian society?

probably not but you talk like you actualy did, thats what i want to tell you.

Ps: wiki, is not good since a ot of articles are not impartial.

You use it rarely?
Really, almost all your proof seems to spue out of that place. Its like your version of the Bible.
Hm... hypocrit



Dont try to lie, I have taken some myself, but there is no way you as a sixteen year old will be able to take college courses at anything better then community level.

*raises hand* Right here, and I agree on a lot of things, some of Russia is like that.

Seems that the ace of all trades, is also the ace of stereotypes.

as opposed to "I knew it from birth"?
yeah.

its relatively reliable and a wide database.

I asked you to stop pointing out flaws. Now I could call you a hypocrit, but because I asked you to stop pointing out flaws (NOT because I'm a hypocrit, which I'm not) I won't

try MIT bitch

whu?

I'm sorry, but like what? I dont go there looking for the history of canabalism.

Ahaha, my teachers call it the 'fools source' for the reason that any idiot can get an acount and change all the information on almost any page.


Americans



Dont think so, I need proof. Barely anyone gets into that school with well conected parents. What makes you so special?

its a shitty source, but not a bad reference. I have plenty of people (teacher or otherwise) who will support me on that
and again, who would bother posting that? I'm not looking up prolific articles (such as G. W. Bush)

ahahaha... who is the hypocrit, you say?

they are independantly funded for gifted high school students using MIT staff and profesor resources.
i.e. MIT classes without the MIT bottlenecking.

Thats is exactly something a hypocrit, trying to defend whatever credit they have with the community, would say.



Not quite proof. At least of such a programs existance. Then we can discuss what makes you so special.

I'm just pointing out that you're the one "king of" stereotyping.

and what do I give a damn about what the community thinks? at best I try not to embarress other people too much.

where else would I take a course on relativity...

try the fact that I'm not making an ad hominem arguement?
or is it that I'm just not losing anyhow.

Any community college with a physics program.



Firs off, if you to going to put question marks at the end of a sentace, at least try to phrase a question

Next off, your starting to bable and your post make little sense to me. Please illiterate.

...
and I'm babbling

I think you mean "please iterate"

most courses at com colleges are crap (ones open to non-college students anyhow). they wouldn't allow a non college student into a course that would normally be levels higher.
my knowledge is a bit deeper than that.

Thank you for proving my point, there is no way they would let you in to an MIT course.

again misunderstanding.
the courses I take are college level (not MIT, but levels higher than other college's) but are held independantly of college.
therefore its open because people who can go have the opening.

thats not that hard to understand.

Lets revisit things shall we.



Does this sound familliar?

yes, and I'm right.

and you even act like MIT's admission's demands are difficult to achieve. top 10% of your class? 3.5 gpa average? at least a few APs? 3 SAT IIs? 3 AP tests???

THAT IS SO REDICULOUSLY EASY. its not that MIT would be a difficult school to achieve their standards, its the sheer backflow that would prevent me from getting into the college. so in the end its all about luck.
a shining star at any other college is one of the masses to MIT

Where did you get this from.
And yes you could do all that, and get in. But at $40000 a year.

Yes, but apperently earlier on you tried to boast as if you took classes at MIT, which in the end proved to be you trying to lie.
