http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=389x6387892So lemme get this straight, you want to work less hours and make other people pay more taxes.
You want healthcare for free.
The military gutted and all but disbanded.
Intelligence totally dissolved.
Your pot legal and your Cheetos for free.
The govt to control banking
and public (I'm guessing you want that free as well) transportation.
You aren't as much loony as you are lazy.

5. According to the righties, people like you are.....
.........Fascist Communist Acornist Trotskyist Racist Reverse-Racist Leftist Marxist Socialist Empathyist Sorosist Leninist Hitlerist Euthanasiaists who are stupid, lazy, hate America, want to offer therapy and understanding to terrorists, want to ram agenda down throats, don't read the bills they write, want to suck on the gubbermint teat, and are angry and unhinged.
In my opinion, you are just an average American.
Yep when an insane man sees another insane man he rarely will say that person is crazy.
