im sorry you feel that way. i think it has been productive since we have agreed on the very important, but basic premise that giving people money alone does not lift them out of poverty. ive not changed my position and I don't think you have changed yours either, but the discussion has helped reconcile our differing perspectives. we have succeeded at communicating ^^
the big difference between our arguments, is that I am unhappy with my conclusions and could continue the discussion indefinitely if it means there is a chance I could invalidate them, whereas you are very pleased with your conclusions and do not wish to see them invalidated. that's not a slight either, just an observation and it a reasonable position for you to take if you believe are right. my conclusions are bleak, uninspiring and depressing at face value. there is hope nestled in them to though, so it not all bad ^^
