@hmt741 he is simply too extreme for me.

define = it's hard narrowing what it quite means but what you mean is equal or larger/ smaller let's say you're X and you're comparing to Y are you equal? theoretically you're = but in reality you're not. X and Y are unknown they've got no relation. You've got no relation to Y.

@dane7902 Libertarian get this completely, Republican and Democrats both fail at this idea but in different ways. Democrats, at least in there claims, are more of person freedoms and equality, where is Republican are more for economy freedoms and tax equality. Both parties fail are being for these freedoms, on the whole, but I think your views are what is conservative and liberal is twisted by your own views. Check out the LP's Are you a Libertarian? Quiz, it makes the point very well.

FINALLY SOMEONE FUCKING GETS IT!!!

Corporations look at this video and laugh. "The only thing in this country that has rights is the almighty dollar."

I agree. Many of these things, like police and clean water we pay for already via taxes. The only difference being that we can't withhold payments or seek an alternative if we think the public sector is performing poorly.

@jarvy251 i agree in principle but so long as it is brought to its natural conclusion. a mother owes nothing to her children. the child has no rights to the fruits of her labor. a woman has no rights to the fruits of her husbands labor nor does he have the rights to hers. nobody has the rights to police unless they pay for the police. clean water must be payed for, product safety is the job of the buyer, etc. after all these are property rights we are talking about.

@CurryCobra I don't even watch Fox or any other "news station" since I don't have cable. I only "waved my flag" because I disagreed with JoshBoschke's claim.
Since I'm on the inside looking in, I'm having trouble thinking of any groups conservatives pander to. Could you name a few? And try not to confuse establishment Republicans with everyday conservative American citizens.

@dane7902 Yes that is the philosophy of utilitarianism, do the action that will produce the most good for everyone not just you. Basically, if everyone was doing it, would it be good or bad?
But no, it is not Liberalism.
@JoshBoschke Wrong! Conservatives by far get this more than liberals: it's the very basis of the conservative ideology. It's liberals who pander to special groups of people rather than reinforcing individual rights and responsibilities.

@dane7902 It's sad to see such extreme flag waving. If you dont think conservatives also pander to special groups, i am very sorry for you. Dont get me wrong, democrats do it too. But to say one side is innocent is completely asinine. I think the best thing for you to do is to not watch any "news station" but rather go out and do your own research.
