http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=389x6387892

So 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.

This will never happen.  As long as you are giving away 'free' stuff those receiving it will never take care of it.  They have nothing to gain by taking care of 'free' stuff.

Exactly what I was going to say - Housing projects don't start off in bad shape - there are some residents who systematically destroy the property because they aren't responsible for it. And if they can hock the ceiling fixtures for 15 bucks each, and leave behind a lightbulb hanging from a wire, why not ? Its just free money, may as well grab some.

Pretty much every single one of those idiots is saying cut defense spending.
Compare their wish lists to the average conservatives wish list and you will notice that we aren't wanting a bunch of stuff paid for by other people. In fact we are called greedy because we want to provide for ourselves with the money we make instead of handing it over to Obama so he can take care of us.


My wish list,
Low taxes and responsible govt spending.
Strong defense as granted by the constitution.
Public assistance by the states for those truly in need for temporary help not as a lifestyle like we currently have.
An end to sin taxes if people want to enjoy a legal product they shouldn't have to pay uncle sam for the privilege.
An end to career politicians, we need real people in office who know what life is day to day as an average person.
True equality, end affirmative action and data collection by employers of what race you are. A color blind society where we are judged by who we are not what ethnic background we are from.

40. I'm thowing down the gauntlet, big boy. I bet I can out LEFT you!
   
Here's what I want more than anything..... what our last liberal president (Nixon) proposed... a living wage for EVERYONE!

Imagine.... no more foodstamps... everyone would have the money for that necessity.

No more subsidized housing..... everyone would have the money to afford that necessity.

No moe LEAP.... everyone would have the money for the necessary utilities in their area.

What a concept....

See? I told you I could out-radicalize you.

Nixon would be proud.

:rofl:

While we're at it let's make living wage 10 million dollars.  That way we're all millionaires.   Woohooooooo.....I'm RICH!

I must differ with the Bard.

Kill the moochers first.
When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.

65. Here's what I also want
   
-Replace PBS, NPR, and VoA, with a Federal decentraized public broadcasting service. (American Broadcasting Service) Paid fully by our taxes.
-Implement Public Service Broadcasting regulations for all television and radio services.
-Depopulate prisons and reserve them for real criminals, make them regimated and structured so that idle time and prison gangsterism eradicated.
-Universal Free basic Wi-Fi for all.
-Replace the MPAA's CARA and the ESRB with one government regulated media classification system that protects children but outlaws censorship for adults (except for child pornography and incitement to immanent lawless action)
-Universal social security: Everyone gets a check for $400 a week if you are unemployed over 16 or a student.
-Expand Amtrak to every town or city with a population of 5,000 people. Make all public transportation free of charge (except for High-Speed Acela-like services and overnight sleeper services)
-Outlaw firearms except for hunting, pest control, and sport. Disarm the police in urban and suburban areas and restrict fire arms to armed response units.

-Get rid of the jail bond system, and release suspected defendants on recognizance or remand.

Ughhh and this idiot is allowed to vote.  :banghead: :banghead:
Free internet, free checks every week, free rides everywhere, free tv, and disarm the police.
