Quote from: Praying Jestis;1364261I never get why so many people are scared of socialized government, is it like residual misinformed hate of commies from the Cold War or something?

I think people are just afraid of the government having too much power.

Because government shits things up. Government is a monopoly, it can get away with doing a crappy job because it can't go out of business. Private industry does nearly everything more efficiently.

Not only that, but it is an invasion of rights. The USA is not a socialist country, and it is not the role of our government to take people's money, churn it through an inefficient bureaucracy, and give it in various forms to people who did not earn it.

Slurpee

the two front-runners are both p. cool I'm voting for oabma cuz he's black and prolly listens to jay-z but it really doesn't matter to me bc 1) california is not a swing state and 2) they're both pretty cool. (unless mccain picks romney as his running mate because if you consider his age he's liable to die soon and mitt creeps me out.)

I think Obama vs. McCain is kind of a question of whether you want to to be badly fucked at home, but possibly with some improvement, too, or just a little fucked at home, but have our reputation abroad confirmed and worsened.

Anyone who thinks Obama would make a better President than McCain is clearly I'm a edgy teen imo.

Lately I've been shown that they're both around equally bad, but I'm still voting Obama because I've never seen him completely freeze up and say he doesn't have enough information to answer someone's question. I've seen McCain do that in three entirely different clips, along with his whole "im totally computer illiterate" deal. Plus the fact that he did graduate 5th from the bottom of his class. That says nothing about his intelligence now, 700 years later, but it's still not good.

Pure Capitalism is no different. The stockyards of Chicago were the best example of this.

Invasion of rights? The biggest rights violation is not giving health care to all people, there is no greater violation of the right to life and the pursuit of happiness.

I see no difference between Barrack Obama and John McCain. Their voting streak is nearly 70% identical. Their written strategic plan for Iraq with the exception of an over-optimistic and an under-optimistic time line is nearly identical. Not to mention when somebody who wants "change" votes for wiretapping. It's all a world of rhetoric. The only advantages the two men have is quite simple. John McCain has more experience so he's a little more fine tuned in the art of bullshitting. Obama on the other hand is clearly a much more attractive man and this projects a sexier image of America. Both I want nothing to be a part of in the voting process. That means yes I'm going to throw my vote to the candidate I most believe in even if I know he's going to lose.

You can't have "pure anything", hes just saying that bigger governments are less efficient, but its still necessary. Therefore, a small government is the most efficient while still providing the necessities that a government should provide. (In my opinion, thats primarily safety of a persons body and property)
Please tell me you're not on that "no health care" train? Thats one of the biggest lies ever. If you're in a dire situation from an injury and may (or may not, maybe just in pain or something) die, hospitals HAVE to treat you, its ILLEGAL to not help someone. Yes, they will charge you money since it usually it is costly, but if you really can't pay the government pays for you. Thats one of the complaints about illegal aliens is because they take advantage of this and never pay anything back in the form of anything.

But that's the thing, these people shouldn't have to wait until they're close to death to get health care.

People who would vote for Gravel just because he wants to legalize weed shouldn't be allowed to vote.

People who would vote for any candidate for their stance on just one issue shouldn't be allowed to vote.

People don't reserve the right to be healthy? How does that support the pursuit of happiness?
