Yes indeed, like working the year's first 150 days for someone else and the residual 100 for your own sake. (assuming 250 working days in a year with a 60% effective tax rate)


Enjoy Sweden

Healthier than who, americans? There are lots of countries where you can achieve that without having to support lazy red necks, hippies, immigrants and general slackers.

You are sexually depressed.

You know how people hunt animals to keep populations down?

Why don't we do that with people ? Our population is out of control. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Y'all are crazy with this Socialist Democracy bullshit.

I suppose I would be for it if I wanted a group to make all my individual decisions for me, but big Abacab here doesn't roll that way. I don't want a government much less majority society tell me what property I can buy, what my taxes are going for, if I can eat this, if I can put this in my body etc.

The problem with most European socialist democracies is the lack of individual freedom, for example Germany is cool and lets me drink alcohol way before the USA ever would, but if I protested that the holocaust never happened I'm getting raped in German prison, and I find that troublesome because I do not have this Marquis De Sade level of libertine exposure.

So it's easy to look at all these economic upturns for healthcare and general wellness of a society by bloating the tax scale up so much, but you'll never have complete freedom in a semi-socialist society because the government is making the decisions for you.

Vote no on socialism, vote yes on narcissism y'all

I would rather have a fat, lazy, cancer ridden, morally bankrupt society over a healthy, productive, energetic, and righteous society if the former meant I could do as I wish.

If people could do as they wished, you would create that former society you were talking about. We have rules and laws so that later society can flourish. If you assume that people are capable of making the correct decision for themselves, then you haven't been outside for a long, long time. If you allowed people to do something such as pay taxes voluntarily, it would be up to the morally righteous to do so...the others would not. Therefore, in order to have the type of people that would enable the former society to grow, you would have to have law and rules in order to produce them. Catch 22.

I hate quoting myself, but I wanted to let you all know I am not for Socialism and I am not a democrat. However, I am not an Anarchist or Libertarian either. We need government whether we lie it or not. The only other option would lead to chaos such as in Somalia; where the closest thing to anarchy exist.
