I guess I'm a radical. Never realized it before.
   
Someone posted a link to a quiz. I think it was between "0" (fascist) and "500" (communist).

And it told me that I was "extremely progressive (345)."

I guess I am. This stuff seems pretty radical here and now.

Everyone should have a roof, food, and medicine. And clothes. And maybe even a little spending money.

That's considered radical today.

Why only maybe a little spending money? Cheetos and pot don't buy themselves after all.  :lmao:

I believe in something truly radical, every able bodied person can work and take care of themselves and choose to help others if they want too.

3. yeah, I think a whole lot of people are more "liberal" than they realize
   
Demonization of language and all. :(

I may be slightly liberal when it comes to social issues other than abortion but, at heart I believe in the freedom that conservative ideas bring us.

5. You are a radical if you think that everyone who wants a
   
roof, food, medicine, and clothes aren't lazy good-for-nothings who don't value work.

:(

No just those who won't take jobs beneath them, can't pass a drug test, or make govt assistance a life style not just a hand up during hard times.
The truly disabled are not included in that category because most of the truly disabled end up on disabilty as a last resort when their bodies simply can't take it any more. People like the DUmmies apply the first day they wake up with a slightly sore back.

I agree...to a point.  Get out get a job and you can have all of the above.

DO NOT expect the Federal Government to reach into MY pocket and pay for your lazy ass however.

Man shall earn his bread by the sweat of his brow.....unless he votes democrat.


Everyone should have a roof, food, and medicine. And clothes. And maybe even a little spending money.....then why in the hell should anyone have a job?

That's right. If you're a progressive, for sure you are a radical and obviously hate the current Free Market System.
If someone works for a living they can go out and spend on what they wish. Those things you listed are not rights, those are privileges. You work and earn them.

and make it near impossible for those of us that 'donated' our hard work and money all our lives to get it when we truly need it!

The least amount of time I'm lookin' at is 8 months! That's of course after they turn me down the first time, which I guess, is the norm! Pathetic! Or in other words, our tax money at work!!!!!

Yeah, DUmmies, it ****in' hurts! It hurts all the  ****in' time, 24/7! Not like you're snivelin' paper cuts for which you profess entitlement to our money! Did I mention I've paid into the fund for 40 ****in' years and not likely to see half of what I've paid in?????

Wow.  What a "broad" range to test within.  On one end, you have your leftist, big nanny-state government system where a gub'mint bureaucrat tells businesses how much of what products they are allowed to produce, and what they are allowed to compensate the proles that work for them.  And on the other end, you have your leftist, big nanny-state government system where the gub'mint owns the businesses, and a gub'mint bureaucrat says how much of what products they are allowed to produce, and what they are allowed to compensate the proles that work for them.


Gee, I wonder where I would fall in that scale of theirs?  :lmao:

Everyone who earns it is entitled to it because they've earned it.  Are you, my dear DUmb one, saying everyone should have these things without having to earn it?

Even if the govt paid every single bill the DUmmies had and gave them a hefty allowance to buy their pot, they would still bitch that it wasn't enough.

Yup because someone down the street from them would have one more disability or two more kids and get mreo from the Gov't than they do.

DUmmies fail to realize that the Socialistic Utopia doesn't fix class envy...it just encourages it.

Where on earth did the DUchebags get the idea that fascism and communism are polar opposites? As pointed out earlier, the two concepts are exactly the same except Hitler ran one and Stalin ran the other.

Oooooh, sorry, Syrinx, that was the test for "Dipshit," not "Radical."  But I suppose it's a natural mistake for a dipshit to make...

How pathetic to have to convince yourself you're a radical. When every Marxist at the UN and the leadership of the country thinks like you do, DUmmie, I'd rethink that whole radical thing, you've simply joined the status quo. You are the establishment. In order to be a radical, you have to hold different ideas than the powers that be. Radicals are generally capable of independent thought instead of parroting crap everyone else says. Have an original thought now and then.

Also encourages your neighbors and kids to turn you in if you try to get a little extra on the side!

Yep, a society of Rats, just what every country needs!!
