Conservative party being bred out of America?

Quote from BSAM:

Dems focus on necessary, my ass.
Yeah, their version of "necessary" is stealing my money to give it to some worthless shit who won't work.

Join the club, they've been stealing my money forever and wasting it on stupid wars, oil company subsidies, Haliburton and their ilk. Might be nice to be able to allocate what money goes where, but we live in a democracy, and don't get to do that.

I know you're trying to be a wiseass, brother Bill, but I actually agree with you on this point.
You ever heard me upholding what the government does?
Ha...Now what you got to say?

I like you actually agreeing on this, these, points. And, yes, being a bit of a wiseass, but the truth is, we live in America, and take the good with the bad.

At least we don't seem to be looking for ways to hide income, and avoid taxes like some our other buddies on ET. I don't mind paying, and yet would like some more control over where it's being spent.

Of course it's their version of necessary, just as it's your version of evil. You have got to keep in mind, they disagree with you just as much conviction. I know, I know, you're right and they're wrong. They say the same.

So, you agree with theft?
Yes or no.

You call it theft because you think it's evil. I call it necessary, since without it people would "freeride" on, for example, national defense.

So, you are okay with theft?
 
Quote from Ricter:

No, I'm not. But not all taxes are theft.

Thanks for finally answering the question.
I agree that "not all taxes" are theft.

We have achieved nuance, time for a drink! Crap, I'm at the office.
