If RT required it, and the majority of us agreed that everyone who read or posts here had to contribute to a fund to pay Ty a little sumthin’ sumthin’, and you refused to pay, should you still be entitled to post or read for free?

How about if you work as a bartender in a restaurant and the owner requires that all tips are pooled, and you think that your hard work shouldn’t subsidize lazy people like Not Bob (a hipster server who wears a pork pie hat)? Do you think that you should be able to opt-out of the tipsharing and still expect to work at that restaurant?

someday, and I hope that day never comes, you and i may be on the opposite sides of a file. I will destroy your arguments, your client and your very standing in your firm. I will not savor that action, but will be compelled to do so by the dollars being paid me.

A happy point is that i am not paid to post here, so i do not need to respond to this drivel. happy birthday.

What can I say? There’s only you and me and we just disagree.

That's kind of the point of everything that a government does.
