So, here's a cool thing about Western governments. All Charities, non-profits and publicly traded companies have to release these things called financial statements on a rigid schedule. They are all publicly available (some smaller organizations don't publish them, but you can still request them).
Here is one such statement from the American Red Cross:

Basically, jgordon, everything you have ever said from the time you joined this site and were playing mafia has been a lie. Instead of ever posting actual arguments, you will usually post a side-swipe e.g. "your point is ironic, because of ...", "your post is good, but have you considered it?". These types of posts are totally meaningless. It would be better if instead of an arbitrary mystery statement that nobody understands but you, you actually posted what you meant. The rare times you actually have something to contribute, you send it by PM, like a skulking KKK Grand Dragon that doesn't want his black niece to know who he is.
In this thread, we have the rarest of occurrences: jgordon makes an actual point (that contains "facts") in a thread, instead of by PM, like a pedophile priest. The brilliance of it is that the facts are totally wrong and not based anyway in reality, but rather than revising a viewpoint or presenting evidence of the facts, jgordon just repeats himself (and probably sends some PMs, like a homosexual hockey player).
Jgordon, until you get a fucking clue, stick to the Bible. Once you have accepted Jesus, you can leave this world that you obviously don't understand.
