Yep, the far righties (the hard right). You guys are not conservatives, not mainstream Republicans. You are fakes and posers, and you just hung yourself and your silly crew.

It can be a different question, but it is not relavent to this discussion.
You confuse (or obfuscate) an economic theory with a politcal system.
Let's discuss obfuscation for a moment. What was your reasoning behind bringing in religious fanaticism?

That means he has insight others do not.

Do you think many, implied majority want a police state?

Of course not. Which was his point.

Chairman Mao agrees with you Frank.



"We stand for active ideological struggle because it is the weapon for ensuring unity within the Party and the revolutionary organizations in the interest of our fight. Every Communist and revolutionary should take up this weapon.

But liberalism rejects ideological struggle and stands for unprincipled peace, thus giving rise to a decadent, Philistine attitude and bringing about political degeneration in certain units and individuals in the Party and the revolutionary organizations.

Liberalism is extremely harmful in a revolutionary collective. It is a corrosive which eats away unity, undermines cohesion, causes apathy and creates dissension. It robs the revolutionary ranks of compact organization and strict discipline, prevents policies from being carried through and alienates the Party organizations from the masses which the Party leads."

Taking care of the old and the sick is not "communism."

Spending government money on education, healthcare, research, and infrastructure is what drives an economy.
To your second point..BULLSHIT.
Federal government has NO BUSINESS in local affairs such as education. Unfortunately, local officials saw the carrot of federal aid on the stick and grabbed it. And of course all the strings attached to the stick. Now local educators are stuck with federal money because they have learned to overspend while counting on the flow of federal dollars. And the interference.
The federal government has NO BUSINESS in the health insurance area. Another gigantic and expensive bureaucracy has been created with absolutely zero positive results.
The reason why programs such as medicare exist is because the federal government decided to meddle in how insurance policies are written.
Insurance became expensive because government involved itself. The govt took away all forms of choice and eliminated competition between insurers by creating protected markets. Imagine how expensive homeowners and auto insurance would be if the insurers did not have to compete for business across state lines?
Senior citizens who require financial and health matters assistance should receive benefits. They worked all their lives. They paid taxes and funded the system. They are richly deserving.
The disabled should also receive assistance.
Here's the rub. Social safety nets are being crushed by waste, fraud and those who game the system. We must draw the line somewhere. We must draw the line before politicians of a certain jersey turn us into Greece.
You sit there in your easy chair wagging your finger at those of us who are sick of government waste, fraud and bureaucracy. You people believe we should be duty bound to fork over our earnings without question.
Ya know what.....If government didn't feed itself, didn't throw our money down a rat hole while demanding we owe them more, few would ever balk at paying their taxes.
Government is over stuffed and far too comfortable. Workers are arrogant and believe they are untouchable. That breeds mediocrity among the employees. They do just enough while putting in their time waiting for the day when they can start drawing a pension.
If you think this is productive, you're living in a parallel universe.
