Instead of fostering a system that enables people to help themselves, America is now saddled with a system that destroys value, raises costs, hinders innovation and relegates millions of citizens to a life of poverty, dependency and hopelessness. This is what happens when elected officials believe that people's lives are better run by politicians and regulators than by the people themselves. Those in power fail to see that more government means less liberty, and liberty is the essence of what it means to be American. Love of liberty is the American ideal.

Dayum! Didn't realize anybody thought this way anymore. Evil capitalist trying to force freedom down errbody's throats. This fool has no clue about economic justice, social justice, gender justice, speech justice, reproductive justice, or religious justice. This running dog bourgeoisie will soon be ground under the heels of the proletariat.

Well I just don't agree that it's the only solution.

I'd like to stop voting Democrat in every POTUS election but when the Supreme Court decides that open bribery is the answer in an ideologically split 5-4 decision I feel I have no choice but to continue to support them in the hopes they might change the balance to 5-4 the other way and we can get our Republic back.

So, Thomas Jefferson's political philosophy being 'right' and those of Mao, Hitler, Castro and Kim Jong Un being 'wrong' would be laughable to you?

I have an opinion on their views, I certainly know who I would side with here (in before lame arse joke about me siding with Mao), but at the end of the day it's all just our subjective opinions based on our experiences.
