Would they be so fast to push for that, knowing that liberals tend to inherit wealth while conservatives tend to make their own fortunes?  Look no further than the Roll Call richest Senators/Congressmen if you don't believe me, lurking DUmmies.

I guess Hollywierd counts as "earning" it.

15. It is primarily our economic system which is not sustainable.
 
A rational production system where things are produced to meet people's needs and not to generate profits would go a long way towards lessening our load.

As per population, capitalism begets poverty for the majority and poverty begets higher replacement rate.

Yeah, just like the collective farms of the old Soviet Union, where the farmers' personal plots were tended well to feed their families and the state portions of the farms were tended poorly and produced little. People aren't going to bust their asses to feed or produce for some faceless "other" they don't know. Especially with no evidence that that other is pulling his or her own weight.

Those who do not learn from history are condemned to become DUers.

Without profit what would they tax? Government programs don't just pay for themselves.

I think we should redistribute the DUmmies dope stash....confiscate all the pot, pills, crack, hash, etc. and spread it around...doesn't matter wheather you use it or not... take it and spread it around....if you don't use just flush it down the toilet...hell, that's what the government does with your money when they take it from you and give it to the DUmmies.

I think it's time to move this to the DUmping Ground's "Posts that stand alone" or to Mind Numbing Stupidity.

Raise spending above 100% of GDP, tax whatever's left and then claim its the system that's broke.

That's kinda the approach the old Soviet Union took.  Ever see a ruble from back then?  Stamped out of aluminum, no intrinsic metal value at all.  Worthless in foreign exchange, which (Aside from the inherent inefficiency of a command economy) had a whole lot to do with why we kicked their ass so badly in the economics of the Cold War.

And alot of these "others" I actively despise, such as DUmmies and other assorted internet trolls who loathe the capitalist pigs who seemingly ignore a "collective greater good."  

I will give one DUmmie credit concerning this thread.  He said "This is by far the worst thread I have ever read on DU."
