    From the other site: "You're already using force to maintain private property..." It's force to keep what one has earned, but it's not force to take what one has not. That's how the game is played.

    Some left-anarchists believe in expropriating the 'means of production' to redistribute to 'workers.' Of course, since they're ambiguous about the meanings of those terms, they can apply them to virtually any situation (which is the point).

    I started a thread on compulsive hoarding a few years ago which you mind find interesting.

    I recommend the Turtle Beach Ear Force X12. I've owned it for several years and the sound quality is excellent. I paid around $45 for it. If you're looking for professional quality sound then I recommend the Audio Technica AT2020 USB. It's around $100.

    I first heard about this show in the late 1980s when I was in my teens. A friend told me about it and had the show on VHS. It's among my favorite shows. The first episode I ever watched was The Girl Who Was Death (with the famous pub scene). There are some fascinating interviews of Patrick McGoohan on YouTube in which he discusses the show and its meaning. The 2009 miniseries was garbage.

    Who determines what is productive and unproductive, and how is this determination made?

    I was going to point that out but you beat me to it. It's meant to belittle both Stef (as a smug dismissal) and Olle Persson (by insinuating naivete and credulity).

    Apparently, this isn't the first time that this sort of thing has happened. A woman claims that she was also violated.
