Questions for Lurkers; Post 'em here
« on: February 16, 2011, 11:56:24 AM »
QUESTION: If the government provides services for the American people that cannot/should not be provided by the free market or individual citizen because they are so absolutely, fundamentally essential to our civil society why do liberals support unionization of government workers that allows those workers to withhold those services based on subjective demands?


QUESTION: If government demands the authority to regulate tobacco, sodium, trans-fatty acids, cholesterol etc because over indulgence of these substances can lead to inflated healthcare costs being spread throughout the balance of society then why won't liberals condone regulations against unmarried/serial sexual relattionships when single-parent pregnancies lead to poverty, lower education, increased public welfare, higher crime and rampant STDs?

Just so there is at least one reply to this because no liberal can or will have the balls to sign up and answer.

Not gonna see a single DUmmie register here to argue those or any other questions posed to them. They need their echo chamber of DU.

Four lines in the first question and five in the second?  You have a MUCH higher estimate of their reading comprehension than I do, you wascally wabbit.

Crap, wrong board.......
You see, I don't care you how feel.  I really don't.  More importantly, neither does anyone else.  Only about 200 people on a planet of 7 billion actually care about your feelings, and that's if you're lucky.  The sooner you grasp this lesson, the better off you will be.  And since almost no one gives a damn what you do, say, think, or feel, appealing to your feelings when you encounter differences of opinion is not only illogical, but useless.

1. Cheeto dust, what's the half life?

2. Pizza boxes, years to decompose in a dank and low light basement?

This one can only be answered by a handful of DUmpezens.

3. Standard size bathtub, do you fit?
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.
