when the welfare state threatened to ruin them, which direction did they move? and no, they are not 'far more'

I gave up trying to teach you long ago. There is a certain truth about people. Usually people who have to wear their politics on their sleeve, maintain titles or other such public labels, are typically insecure. It is obvious you labeled yourelf free thinker because you are insecure about...

http://www.economics21.org/commenta...ents-equal-size Hey Ricter, just making sure you get the memo.

the parallels are very clear. liberals hate it, but it is quite clearly true. how about this one- some of hitler's early support came from university students. sound familiar? The need for order and control. For some it is god, for others it is government. Hitler had a vision of order...

the left would absolutely love it, thankfully republicans have enough power to block it for now. Will be revisited in about 10 years.

let me help you out dipshit, the sentence was too abstract for you nutmeg was pointing how 'you guys' are funny in how easily you have switched an blankfein

by the size of government (39% GDP). In spite of your constant harping for more government you fail to understand we are already extremely socialist. The problem with people like you is that you want to keep doubling down on failure...

PT said the journal was here, so that comments could be made. You can't read well apparently

No, the offer was also made to simply post screen shots of the account. PT offered that. RCG figures he can't make fraudulant screenshots I guess.

oh dear.... I shall just have to rest on the knowledge of your promise to grace this thread again

AARP has historically been the strongest lobby. They act like a union and bully congressmen all the time. AARP will accept no discussion of cuts, zero. Old people get about 12% of the GDP in benefits, and growing fast. What can you say other than it's greed. For example what person here would...

we are unique, uncharted territory Sweden and Canada cut taxes and cut services, they sort of grew up a little, Greece is being forced. One experiment to watch is California, and the question of the day is how long can monetary games and can-kicking keep prolonging the inevitable...

The entire notion of the majority's politics is about redistribution, not production.

The only people that have tried to fix this problem is the republicans. Republicans keep tripping over their own balls, but that's another story. Every proposed reduction is met from liberal democrats with hyperbole like "hands off MY health care", "Nazi", " grandma killers", etc. and then a...

The size of our government is Sweden-like, I did not say that the population is. The steaming pile of shit known as diversity is a consequence of liberalism in a country with a split racial makeup, it is not a pre-condition for liberalism. Europeans have rejected multiculturalism as a...

Direct takeover of the economy never ends well. The mob takeover is more old school. Modern lefties just want your profits, after all why bother with the cow when all you want is the milk. Certainly there is a large element of the left that would love nothing more than to nationalize...

First of all I never claimed to represent the entire 'right wing' with regard to my explaination, it is entirely my own. What I do claim is that fiscal conservatives in general offer the only sane path forward - cuts to government services. You claim it is nuts but offer no explaination why...

whenever congressional liberals are presented with the numerical reality all you hear is "food out of children's mouths", "old people on the street', "mean spirited Nazi" blah blah ... also why we have no escape, they are unable or unwilling to grasp the situation with any sort of clarity or...

your usual random monkey at a keyboard stuff thanks cornelius, but I'd rather you go play with your digital watch, the rest of us would like to do grown up stuff

oh and if you give me the plate of shit about marginal tax rates in the 50's, keep this in mind also about 1950: Federal + State + local government = 24% GDP Pensions + Health Care + Welfare = 3.3% GDP I say then yes, bring back the 50's. Imagine that, we all look back at one of...
