You can't claim that an argument is based on a "simple" understanding of the
issue, implying that you speak from a much greater understanding of the
subject, then just use emotional arguments to support your position. Where
is the evidence that the basic principles of economics that Leebase is
presenting are overcome by some other, more sophisticated factors?

(I could just say that there are "Haters" out there, who are arguing in
opposition, without regard to any actual knowledge or information that would
enlighten the issue, but I think the term has been hijacked to apply in only
one direction.)

Well said, Ken. I 100% agree.
