Re: Cognitive Dissonance
[ QUOTE ]
It is illegal for me to perform my current job w/o one. If the point of your posts is that I live in the USA and abide by its laws means that I fully endorse its laws, you can stop now. [/ QUOTE ] I'm just saying that the socialist argument is that your neighbors' debt is your problem because you have shared finances via social security, which by the way you voluntarily signed up for and by continuing to use you continue to endorse. personally I think it's fraud but that's just me. |

Are you and Nielsio seriously telling me that in AC-land people would have the right to sell products under other people's brands? |

How is it a fraud if I know I'm buying a replica? If we know it's not the real thing, how is it being sold "under other people's brands"? Appearance is protectable intellectual property? How far are you willing to go with that? The first guy to sell a brown purse gets a monopoly on brown purse distribution? People don't have a "right" to sell anything. That's different from someone else having a right to stop them. |
