Well, you just lost any image of intelligence. I could denounce that in hundreds of ways, but I'm going to bed. I'll bash you tomorrow maybe. Trickle down economics DOES work, and has been proven by statistics showing an increase in federal reserve revenue after tax cuts. |

"Well, you just lost any image of intelligence"
Lol, ignorance of the fact that roblox is profitable and the fact that you can't argue with those statistics so you open up with an attack on character. Nice, lol. I actually wouldn't be surprised if you just let this thread die. Also funny how you're relying on the "you don't agree with me so you're dumb" logic. Real nice tactics there but I honestly was expecting that.
An increase in federal revenue doesn't prove that the money is going to the poor... In fact, as a working poor who is forced to rely on financial aid so I can go to college as my job doesn't pay me enough to cover both living expenses and college, I can tell you from self experience that it is not going to the poor. I can also tell you through the teachers and police officers, who even with their education are getting paid dirt wages to do their jobs.
Also if trickle down economics works, then why is the job market bad? Surely if the rich is off doing so much good for the poor, they should surely be creating the jobs we're getting promised that trickle down economics ensures that they are making for us right? Oh they're not? Damn. Thought that trickle down economics actually worked for a minute.
Listen dude, you're 16 years old with 1 trimester of economics education(I'm sporting 2 years and don't even consider myself well versed enough in the subject to be making such wild claims against people who have more education than me.) to back you. You're like that one guy who take an introductory course in psychology and thinks he can diagnose everyone around him and provide treatment. Don't be that guy. |

ROBLOX earned a lot more from DevEx by getting media coverage and attracting more members than it actually gave out.
If you really think that a company would do something that doesn't provide profit in some way, then you seriously haven't learned the first thing about companies.
They always want profit.
People that own companies don't have trees that grow money, they earn it in any way possible. |

Romuluz, your entire argument is based on shotgun argumentation (and countless others). I don't respond to fallacious arguments. When you are willing to have a mature and logical argument with me I will be happy to do so, but until then I have won. |

It's actually not.
Here I'll even post the definition:
"A fallacy is incorrect argument in logic and rhetoric which undermines an argument's logical validity or more generally an argument's logical soundness."
I'm bringing up a very valid point, and I find it funny that you wait an entire night claiming at first that you could "disprove it in 100 different ways" and come back with this.
What this tells me is that you actually have no idea what you're talking about.
Thanks for the info, lmao. |

It actually is:
Shotgun argumentation – the arguer offers such a large number of arguments for their position that the opponent can't possibly respond to all of them. (See "Argument by verbosity" and "Gish Gallop", above.)
Just stop, you're digging a deeper hole for yourself.
I'm not reading your 5 essays and then addressing all of the points, I have better things to do. Either make a quick and solid point, or be gone. |

Wierd, I got my definition from list of fallacies, lmao.
Also I do believe that I only brought fourth one point against trickle down eco.(2 if you count the other one in my other post) And finally if you're against logical fallacies so much, don't use them yourself buddy.
Now c'mon, bring forth an argument like you said you would, lol. Seems like you're avoiding the topic due to a lack of knowledge more than anything else. |

Also if 1-2 points counts as shotgun argumentation, then every single essay I've ever written for school is riddled with argument fallacies. Crap, better go my teachers they taught me wrong and I wasn't even supposed to put any points in my essays. |

OP makes me want to facedesk.
Roblox would not be alive as big as it is today if they didn't know economics. OP please, stop trying to make Roblox seem bad at economics, they seem to be doing just fine, their platform is growing, and profits are as well. |

You are using a Nirvana Fallacy @Above
You are saying that because my solution isn't perfect that it's bad. |

And that because Roblox's economy isn't bad, it's good. That's also a fallacy. |

^Nope.
According to OP, his 1 trimester of economics education trumps anyone else's degrees or levels of edu.
Oh, and btw according to him you're using logical fallacies. |

Oh my god, lol. He's not saying it's not perfect, he's not even really taking a stance.
I'm out, you're obviously just going to stand here all day labeling people who disagree with you as using logical fallacies because you have no actual education to bring up valid points. |

Lol, please quote me where I said that one trimester makes me a professional. In fact, I believe I said the exact opposite.
The fact that you need to twist my words, deny proof of fallacies, and on top of that use Ad Hominem attacks shows just how low you are, and how ignorant as well.
My 129 IQ "trumps" all of your education. |

"My 129 IQ "trumps" all of your education."
lmao, a 5th grader can test with a lot of IQ and still won't know as much as someone with more education.
Education is the true measure of knowledge, not faulty IQ tests.
Not even gonna touch the rest of that or else I risk being branded as using "faulty logic" incorrectly again. |

Also if you're going to debate this get back on topic. You obviously have no idea what you're talking about and insist on TWO points being made being "too many points" and "shotgun argumentation" when the common essay contains at least 3 points. |

IQ tests have such a high correlation to salary it isn't even funny. GPA on the other hand has almost none. I'm not responding to your stupidity any more. Unfortunately I can't force you to be intelligent. You are a lost cause. |

"You are using a Nirvana Fallacy"
This sounds like Sigmund Freud's defense mechanism of "Denial".
"My 129 IQ "trumps" all of your education."
IQ scores become less relevant the older you get (as it is based off of the equation mental age/chronological age). For example my IQ score could be lower simply because I'm older. And it also depends on what IQ it was (WAIS, WISC, etc.). |

"IQ tests have such a high correlation to salary it isn't even funny."
Correlation doesn't prove causation. Doesn't really mean much other than a general trend in society. |

OP a little advice for you, don't try to use big fancy words in all of your posts to make yourself seem smarter than the rest. All of my English teachers hate it when their students try to do this in research papers and such.
And Death Row is Still the Label that Pays Me! |

My IQ was 140+ when I was 12 (a year ago) and it doesn't mean I could explain any of this. |

Lol kids when they can't give their actual IQ, and just say IQ is XXX+
Your IQ isn't supposed to change, so thanks for the proof of lie by saying "when I was 12"
I'm smarter than you, you're pissed; I'm sorry that my natural superiority makes you mad -- I can't help it.
And correlation doesn't need to prove causation this situation. I take AP Stats and I would know much more than you would. Given that people with higher IQs tend to have a higher salary, I can conclude that given multiple people with a higher IQ, they will tend to have a higher salary. It's extremely simple probability. |
