As opposed to a wacked out conservative majority. I wish both polar ends of the political spectrum would just shrivel up and die. Why can't the moderate voices be just as strong as the wackjobs on the far left and the stupid teabaggers on the far right.

Folks hate Obama.. They hated the Bushes.. They disliked Clinton because he got a BJ..
But ALL OF THEM have the same advisors, the same people running most of the larger departments. There is no difference between them. Turn off any for profit news station. Especially anything owned by Newscorp. As far as socialism... Its been here, longer than you have. You are probably here alive today because of it. Public libraries, roads, bridges, police, fire stations, EMS, schools, social security, medicare, parks, even your utilities, and your precious world wide web are ALL SOCIALIST (in the beginning, most are now controlled by for profit companies) Hell, even the farm subsidies, that provide you with cheap food are socialist. Capitalism is the problem IMO. (before you bash that statement, hear me out.) A government wants to build a road. It used to directly hire the individuals to build the road. It used to buy the materials to build the road. The government would build the road. There were once good paying government jobs, with benefits, retirement, etc. Those people tried to do a good job, in order to keep their job. With capitalism, A government wants to build the road. It wastes time getting bids on the road. Goes with a company who may or may not be the lowest bidder, maybe the CEO is a college buddy, or a company the elected official previously worked for. That company, out to make a profit, hires the cheapest labor, buys and uses the cheapest material, does a rush job (because there's more money to make elsewhere). We end up with a road, that needs repaired the year later. Its not in that company's best interest to provide a long lasting quality job. Its better for the industry if they dont. That company's interest is in making money, and not serving the people of the country. The government ends up paying more money, for a road of less quality. Thanks to capitalism - * * Our tax dollars subsidized the creation of the internet, paid the utility companies to lay the lines, and yet that company still charges us to access the lines WE already paid for through tax dollars. * * Our tax dollars help pay for the power stations, the utility lines, including emergency funding after a major storm, and yet we still pay for profit companies to have the luxury of turning on the light? * * Our schools in most states now have for profit companies that provide school lunches, run sporting events, run the school bus systems, and even hiring 'educational consultants' to determine curriculum. These area all companies that are creating profits by providing less. If I send my kid to school with 2 bucks a day for school lunch, why in the fuck is she getting 30cents worth of food? How much does it really cost to make mac and cheese, bean burritos, mashed potatoes, or 3 fish sticks? * * A portion of every home owners property tax is used to pay for things like local hospitals, zoos, city beautification, * *The Obamacare policy forces people to pay into FOR PROFIT companies to buy insurance, or be penalized through the IRS system. If Obamacare was an actual socialist policy, it would be a non profit system that is controlled and owned by the public, and not 'for profit' companies. By definition, socialism is an economic and political theory advocating public or common ownership and cooperative management of the means of production and allocation of resources. Why wouldn't you want to control the things you already pay for? To have some say in how your money was spent. This is money your already spending. Emptying your pockets of your hard earned money, and handing it over to for profit companies. If you remove the profit, you get the same thing, for less money. | ||

In the end it doesnt really matter who did it.
Did it really matter who started the reichstag fire? What really matters is what the right-wingers did with this golden opportunity. To be honest, im going to NYC in 5 days and i will look at it sorta like someone would look at the titanic before it floats away towards NY. Im not sure american democracy can survive one more terrorist attack like 9/11. And if 9/11 was an inside job, its only a matter of time. | ||

What eccentrica said ^^^
I always get a chuckle when my american host in NY talks about obama as a communist, as socialist as if it was evil (and as if obama was anything other than a center-right politician). I know i only have to use this argument to completely demolish his viewpoint, but i leave politics alone when i visit the US. | ||
