Ali, we're all owned, you as well pal. Why are you selling things ?. To pay for other things ?. We all have to pay.


No, you muppet, ownership is about control. What you are talking about is the benefits of trading and not who has control over you or your trade. You've been owned for so long you think it's not for you to decide and that's why you are a slave. :-|

Skull, you've obviously not got a clue what I'm talking about. All you seem to think about is the Taxi Trade

I didn't specifically mention the taxi trade.

Try this: From a very early age, you are taught to apologise, make excuses, give explanations, to ask for permission, and to allow others make your decisions for you and to give away any control you might have. It's simply a part of your social conditioning.

In private schools like Eton and Fettes college, they learn the opposite.

In short, they are taught to lead and you to follow. :-|

It's no accident the way you are Fairplay, you never had a chance. eusasmiles.zip You do no more than you are programmed to do.

How important is "Ownership". There were people who "Owned" shops in Leith Walk that went out of business because of the Trams. Sometimes there are factors that are outwith anyone's control. Ownership, what does that mean ?. It does not mean you are in total control.

Are you a Leader Skull ? you're the man that applied for 2 Plates, with the sole intention of selling them on for profit.
Oh, wait a minute, that wis' the Systems fault... You wonder why nobody takes you seriously ?

It's not manners. It's a habitual or programmed response when confronted by people perceived to be in a position of authority. You don't think, you do, and you have little or no control over it. :-|

Control is a dynamic, there is no such thing as having total control at least not for a prolonged period. :-|

you might not have control.... I take it you're speaking from your own personal experiences.... but from my own personal experience.... I do OK.... and as for your version of ownership.... owning a car can give a person freedom.... sometimes you give the impression of having led a very sheltered life.... and read too many books :wink:

So that's why you are a trade Uncle Tom, because you have control. Is that not contradiction in terms? :?

no... the reason why I am a trade Uncle Tom.... is because I am good at what I do... if I wasn't I'd soon be gone.. :lol:
