Both of these concepts are the destruction of Western civilization. World government? Seriously? The world does not have the rights that we do. The only way for world government to succeed is to begin removing individual rights. I will gladly give my life defending those rights before I would simply give them to other entities that cannot appreciate them. Socialized medicine is the antithesis of medical research. Everywhere socialized medicine exists, cures and treatments are not generally found. Why is it that when citizens of countries with socialized medicine get really sick....they come here? Until members of Congress agree to socialized physicians and to be treated by RNs, LVNs, ODs, and the like, I ain't hearing it. I find the pursuit of this discussion to be pointless. Equality in general is a useless discussion. It really can't be achieved to everyone's satisfaction and not all people even agree on what it means. Should we require the NBA to hire more white players? Should we demand the Nobel Institute give more awards to Africans? And what the hell is religious equality? There is no such thing. In this country, there are factions who would like to eliminate religion altogether. The only thing we know for sure is that across the globe today, muslims are at the heart of hate and killing and terror. Is there no case in which it is appropriate? Are there any anti-social deviants who the world would be better off without? I don't hunt. I do like to fish. I'm sure I annoy well more than half. Why? Personally, I think people should have the right to determine when their life has come to an end and they no longer want to suffer. I actually agree with much of this. However, I would say that aggro-men AND women are part of the problem. What do you find in the middle of a Hostess Fruit Pie? A Ding Dong? A grilled cheese sammich? Soft, gooey, immobile "stuff". The middle does NOT get anything done because they lack passion and the work rate to move the masses. What you are doing, IMO, is equating extremes with everything to the right or left. It's a continuum, not a singular point. Not all cons are extremists, and not all libs are extremists. They do however, get most of the attention and the nitwits in the middle get stuck fixated on them as though they own the conversation. Learn to ignore the bluster, and focus on the talent.
You aren't afraid to wear your stupidity on your sleeve are you gramps? Don't you have a few must have beer goggles Cougars to buy drinks for and strike out later with waiting on you somewhere?
Careful your envy and jealously is starting to appear on your sleeve, I can see it from here. Actually they bought the drinks cause I agreed to ski with them and help them learn to ski. BTW gramps ate at the Y with one of em, no wont tell you which one. I am 70 years old and I hang out in Breaux Bridge and Lafayette playing, dancing and shooting competitive pool. I hang out in The Atchafalaya Basin in the fall fishing and hunting and I ski 45 to 60 days a year in Aspen and Vail you couldnt hang with gramps on your best day much less handle the girls that I seem to attract. Just a sampling below of some of my female friend who adore me, better get on steroids and industrial strength viagra to hang with me sonny boy.
