4. Kinda worried
Because addicts are treated like waste ,and all the novel forms of flu,and since the RW has a eugenicist past,wants to blame the victims,and wants to eradicate the poor and value property over people and the ****ers want to ruin especially poor black people's lives, since there is a bit of clandestine ops concerning crack hitting the streets and the "war on drugs"..... well just saying..
We all know that most of this is completely untrue, especially given that the RW are the main contributors to charities while the LW feels that Uncle Sam should support the poor by taxing the rich...but I did wonder about the eugenicist past. So I did a little research...
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EugenicsThe modern field and term were first formulated by Sir Francis Galton in 1883,[10] drawing on the recent work of his half-cousin Charles Darwin. At its peak of popularity eugenics was supported by prominent people, including Margaret Sanger,[11][12] Marie Stopes, H. G. Wells, Woodrow Wilson, Prescott Bush, Theodore Roosevelt, Emile Zola, George Bernard Shaw, John Maynard Keynes, John Harvey Kellogg, Winston Churchill, Linus Pauling[13] and Sidney Webb.[14][15][16] Its most infamous proponent and practitioner was however Adolf Hitler who praised and incorporated eugenic ideas in Mein Kampf, and emulated Eugenic legislation for the sterilization of "defectives" that had been pioneered in the United States.[17]
We know that Margaret Sanger was into eugenics and abortion to keep down the numbers of black people.
Marie Carmichael Stopes, D.Sc., Ph.D. (October 15, 1880 – October 2, 1958) was a Scottish author, palaeobotanist, campaigner for women's rights and pioneer in the field of family planning.

Doesn't seem to be right wing
George Bernard Shaw ...An ardent socialist
John Maynard Keynes...Keynesian economics has provided the theoretical underpinning for the plans of President Barack Obama...
Doesn't seem very right wing
John Harvey Kellogg (February 26, 1852 – December 14, 1943) was an American medical doctor in Battle Creek, Michigan, who ran a sanitarium using holistic methods, with a particular focus on nutrition, enemas and exercise. Kellogg was an advocate of vegetarianism
Right wing?
Well, that was enough for me. It looks like the LEFT WING have pretty much dominated the field of eugenics. Surprise, surprise...not!
