Interesting ... input is derided as, in itself, authoritarian ... Nonetheless, the challenge stills stands ... has any critique in this thread, per se, addressed, the context of Capitalism outside of a Consumerism paradigm... if the intent is not clear, it obviously lies with the reality that Smith was a Christian and the nuanced challenge herein would invite some interesting discussion ...

Before I get all authoritarian, has anyone taken any time to actually comprehend the context of Adam Smith and his intent behind a Laissez Faire system of economics? Or should I just ASSUME that a thread such as this will only elicit inflammatory content as opposed to informed nuances that evidence a less than grey appreciation of how humanity should live in economic harmony based on the resource at hand?

Well that was the turn in the sandbox that allows us to close this welcome to the newest member to our community. I hope you choose to post with a constructive and respectful manner Emma.

I am indeed grateful for the energy and trust in sharing in one's experiences.

http://www.theinquirer.net/inquirer/review...untu-test-drive I thought this Ubuntu article from The Inquirer might be of interest in respect to this current discussion.

As the game is on the verge of release, speculation threads that top the 500+ mark are great, but shortly no longer needed. I suspect someone may shortly start a thread or two that includes a Spoiler specific one and one that is more generic vis-a-vis game-play.
