|kennethmw| Posted May 3, 2010 Report Posted May 3, 2010 [quote name='big_dish' date='02 May 2010 - 12:52 AM' timestamp='1272775970' post='885471'] Dude if you don't see that a few of the major draws for each party are social service giveaways (or whatever term you choose) for Dems, and personal responsibility/achieving the American Dream for Repubs, then I don't know what to tell you. Each of them have other good/bad ideas as well. And, if you dont think part of the democrats plan is to keep their voters in their corner by giving out more freebies, then common sense may not be your forte. Its politics pure and simple. Neither party really gives a shit about any of us anyway. Besides, nothing like this will be happening anytime soon, just a far off scenario. [/quote] Bullshit!! Let me help you out. Democrats traditionally believe that people should be entitled to a baseline standard of living, and that social programs like public schools, public roads, and yes, even welfare are necessary to help the populace. Republicans tend to believe that because we are a free people(supposedly), it is each individuals responsibility to provide for themselves, until said republican needs some social service, then they become very possessive of the Social Umbrella for their personal needs. That's why you had all the tea partiers saying "we don't want Government Run Health Care, and Keep your hands off of My Medicare!" It's also why the Republican Politicians have been saying the Economic Stimulus plan is not working, but they are the first ones at the ribbon cutting ceremonies in their communities posing with the big Checks that are the result of the stimulus package. It's Hypocrisy.

[/quote] Vol, see my problem is that everyone wants to paint all politicians with the same brush, and I think that is unfair. Yes, I am a Democrat, and I do believe in the principles that most democrats believe in. I do not, however, believe that all Democrats are right, nor do I believe that all Republicans are wrong. I also fundamentally disagree with the thought that Every Politician is only interested in what's in it for "them". Are there some? Most definitely. But to me the biggest problem isn't that the politicians are bad, but more that the people allow them to get "tenure", and never fire the bad ones. The people are Apathetic, and that's why our government is. It's hard to tell the truth when the people don't want to here it, and when everything you say is going to be dissected. The truth is that we can't decrease the deficit, without either increasing the revenues coming in(Taxes), or decreasing the outgo(cutting programs). The sad part to me is that I personally believe that we finally have a president that gets it, but it's hard to get entrenched views to be overturned, especially since many of them have the money to buy the "Facts" and since the people are so willing to accept what they're told.
big_dish Posted May 3, 2010 Report Posted May 3, 2010 For the record, I was for the stimulus (wished it was straightforward with no pork but whatever), for the bailouts for banks, for the bailouts of the auto industry... Did it all help? I'm not sure, but I didnt want to see what would have happened if there was no rescue whatsoever. For health care reform (but sure as shit not the one that passed and the way it passed), for reform of Wall Street (not sure what will happen though)... but am against over taxing of businesses which trickles down to hurt the employee and end user. I'm neither republican, nor democrat. As you can tell, my main issue with the Democratic Party is their willingness to take money from those to earn it and give it to those who have no urge to push themselves to earn their own. Thats not what has made America strong, but its one of the downfalls of a once great society. Oh, and the liberal viewpoint of rehabbing/freeing killers, sex offenders, child rapists, etc. Which only puts them back out on the street to do more harm to innocent people. Dont even argue this. My main issue with the Republican party is that they are too Status Quo, mix in too much religion, and are in general way to stuffy and "conservative" compared to the rest of the world (except for under islamic law). Not forward thinking enough often. I like that they are tough on crime, and hold personal accountability in some sort of regard. Ultimately though, I dont technically like either Party. I like whats best for my country. As to Medicare- yeah, they all should get it, if they paid into it. Thats the difference. If you pay into something, you should get it. If you didnt, why should you get any freebies from the rest of us? Why should I bust my ass for human wastes that dont want to EARN a better life for themselves? I get about 60% of my paycheck. 60%. Thats ridiculous.

Even the idea of Mandating coverage was republican, although since it's in Obamacare, most Republicans have forgotten that fact! I've seen him pursue a war that we should have been focusing our attention on considering that the folks that killed 3000+ americans came from there, while prudently removing our footprint from the Sands of Iraq, where we never should have been. I have seen a president that has criticized both our Allies( Karazi and Nehtenyahu) as well as our enemies(Akhmajineadad), while at all times providing avenues for diplomacy. He also supported a Republican led Deficit Reduction Commission bill, although once he supported it, the Republican co-sponsors all dropped their support and voted against it. Whoulda thunk. I must admit, he isn't perfect, and I wish he had come out with a DADT correction all ready, as well as not been so wiffle waffley on trying the terror suspects in NY.

[/quote] If you are asking me directly, my response is (and I thought I said in a post barring physical/mental disabilities)- no you are not a burden if it is not your choice to be a drain. Nearly everyone can make their way into higher education to give themselves and their families a better chance. I wont need medicare, but I still pay into it, which is fine. I am in a unique situation myself because while I pay for insurance, I also have healthcare for the rest of my life because I sacrificed four years of my life to the military (which also paid for my school).
