A bit on socialism.

  1. That not anything new. Liberals tend to stay in a constant state of confusion for most of there adult lives. Its only when they get old does the confusion tend to wane cause thanx to all of the pills they loose the ability to think all together.
     
  2. I don't think this is about liberalism vs conservatism; they are two sides of the same coin, no? And, if I recall correctly, I posted a reply to a thread you made about Al Jazeera and never got a response on the matter...

    So I think it's fair to say that both liberals and conservatives are retards, for picking sides and fighting with each other like it actually matters at the end of the day. Cooperation always yields better results than competition, but people are lost traversing through nonsensical rhetoric, babbling about things that have no relevance to reality, which is that the powers that be always win, whether they channel their influence through the left or right.

    Open your eyes. :eek:
     
  3. I didnt even know u posted in that thread I completely forgot about it. I will go check it out now. As for ure statement about conservatives and liberals I agree that's y I am libertarian .
     

  4. Liberals and conservatives are the same, but libertarians are somehow this magic other?

    I don't get that. I'm a liberal, my political views are almost completely opposite of what conservatives and libertarians want. Libertarians share a LOT in common with conservatives. When speaking of politicians, they are all more or less the same, with some differences (i.e. some liberal politicians actually do adhere to liberal beliefs, some libertarians the same).

    If you were to say all politicians in the U.S. are sides of the same coin, it'd make some more sense, but honestly, calling libertarians the only ones not part of this flawed system is just foolish.
     


  5. Of the three, we're the only ideology that doesn't worship the state, so yea.


    This is assuming you're talking about neocons and neoliberals.
     


  6. You really should learn more about libertarians on somethings we are to the right of the GOP and yet other things we are to the left of the DNC. As aaronman said we libertarians dont care much for government. We are pretty much about personal freedom and personal responsibility. Take some time and learn about libertarians you will see real freedom is something you just wont find in the GOP or DNC.
     

  7. Hahaha I heard of something like this happening while I was in. I'll attest, though, that when I was in and relying on the government for my healthcare (TriCare) It kicked the shit out of what I have now.

    So wouldn't the question be how we make that system work for the rest of the country without the negatives? And shouldn't we be working on a solution that delivers the positives without the negatives?

    Care to explain that to me because it made literally fuck all sense?
    I think capitalist systems need to be regulated.
    I also know they are going to disagree with me.
    Hardly contradicting.

    edit * I didn't say it was capitalist, re-read the messages.
     
  10. The point is not a contradiction, it is an attempt to make you see the repercussions of implementing the system that you advocate.

    The government is yet another corporation when it is used to "regulate big business" and "redistribute the wealth". Indeed, the government has helped redistribute the wealth, from poor to rich, and regulate business, by bailing those that are "too big to fail" out using the collective Average Joe's checkbook, among so many other things.
