Welfare state or Warfare state......

Recommended Posts

Just out of curiosity, which one would you rather live in? I'd take welfare, just cause I'm a lefty that way.

I just wish all the dudes that dig the Warfare state ESPECIALLY all those Young Republicans cheerleading for war ... would sign up ... instead of expecting other to do the dieing in their place.

War is extremely expensive in both blood and gold. There is a very small segment of manufacturers that make a LOT of money off war, but in general, it drags everything else down.

I'm not a fan of welfare either, but a society that let's its poorest individuals starve or live in the streets isn't a great one.

There's a balance that has to be maintained either way.

Welfare feeds the needy but doesn't kill people.
Warfare feeds corporations, but does kill people.

I dunno. Killing people seems kind of a shitty way to make money.

Which "truth" is that, the one where you lie about how my views are the same as the AF Academy?

At least welfare gets spent here in the USA and actually stimulates the economy without killing innocent people.

But who should get welfare and why is an entire other thread.:P

And Jeannie and Mike, stop trying to change each other's minds. It's New Year's Eve. Have a drink and be thankful.B|

I would absolutely sign back up if I met the criteria.

So much you have to learn about people - Remember the whole assume thing?
And the question, which you probably couldn't fully understand, was which of the two, if the only two choices were available, would you choose.

Try going back and reading again - it would likely help, I'm not too sure how much, but we can always hope.

You should... they are the future of your party... and are doing the same things all the other rePUBICan chickenhawks Like Cheney et al have done since the 1960's

War mongers.. who refuse to actually go to war.

I've posted in support of the DADT repeal and neutrally on gay marriage. I've posted that I haven't attended a church in decades. In return, you've inferred that I'm a religious zealot, a sexual deviant and that I have homosexual tendencies.

Yeah, I 'get it' - we all do, and we've 'gotten it' for years.

Then why the fuck do you keep voting for those who hate anyone who is gay.... and are religious zealots..That just makes no sense at all


And PLEASE do not give me any crap that you did not vote for people like Bush and his political cronies.. you have hundreds of posts supporting them and their policies.


And the SEVERE case of ODS you and the usual suspects exibit daily and you yourself just trotted out with the religious overtones about the president...

Yeah I am betting you or your friends are incapable of voting for anyone even approaching the appearance of being a RINO let alone a Democrat.... please do not keep trying to blow smoke up that elephants ass

Can you point to the candidate that ran on the "I hate gays" platform? I can't seem to find it.

Or it could just be more projection on your part.

Backlash from 8+ years of rabid, foaming BDS.

Yes, because no atheists have EVER used bible quotes when arguing with the religious, no... :S

There is NO national republican candidate able to run that I know of in the last 15 years of the religious right controlled party able to do ANYTHING other than support anything OTHER than anti gay legislation..

You know.. fun folks like the mayor of Spokane... anti gay shit all over the place.... while trying to get his gay lovers jobs working for the city.:S:S

The legislation of morality for you guys... with all that lip service for Family Values... uh huh.... What were those lips doin after hours...

That is a long list of every violation AGAINST anything even resembling family values.

FACT

I voted for Nixon

I voted for Reagan

I even voted for a couple Republicans in the last election and have split my votes between parties based on the BEST candidate in any given race.

I am sure you and Turtle would call any of those moderate Republicans RINOS in your world though

I have voted in EVERY election including ANY local elections in any place I was a resident since 18 year olds were given that right in 1971.
If I was going to be absent I made damn sure I had an absentee ballot.



I would lay odds that has NOT been you or any of your fellow travellers actions in voting history. In fact I am betting on your voting for idealogues just as you post here in SC.
