Technical win? You really cannot let go & even just ignore the issue. Sad, very sad.

Actually, I take that back. You don't even get a technical win, since you didn't bother to use the full quote, conveniently leaving out: "And while I'm sure one could come up with some extreme examples, I know of no type of business, be it of production or service, that can be started without a capital outlay." Unless of course, you want to argue that a Stone Age economy isn't extreme in the modern world.

I don't need to, you next sentence is the one that is an issue. "So, without capital, you have no way to create a means to employ labor." You made a conclusion, using the previous statement, that is unsupported by it (full or otherwise). I can employ labour without capital, have done so when trading my skills for others (not every skill needs a physical tool). Vice versa as well when others have employed me recently, purely by dragging the trash from out the back of our place. I would hardly call physical labour an "extreme example"

Of course, I knew you'd be unable to let it go. Your history on the forums shows how allergic you are to doing that. Predictable as the sunrise
