What About Common Sense??

[Jarhead]

I just want my life the way it was in the 90's. Never having to worry about finding work if I needed a job and not worrying about paying my mortgage.

its still like that if you have the skills to be in demand........

i havent been without a job since bush sr.........

and i picked a great house where even at its lowest point, it is valued at 50k more than what i paid for it.........
must suck to have made bad life choices like you did.........

Damn - that must be a huge fucking double-wide.
Do you and your mother have seperate bedrooms in there, or do you guys just pass out in the easy chairs every night watching COPS?

lmfao...

You are good!

What about the thumpers?? Their rule book says to sell everything and give it to the poor

What about the rich people?? They are on average making 75-100 times what an average worker earns.

What about CEO's making 550 times what an ordinary worker earns when in 1948 they made 10-15 times what they earned?

What about China? They are exporting 50 times as much to us as we are to them

What about the fact that we have 500 companies making money off of sick folks?

What about the fact that in spite of that we rate 37th in the world on average health and death statistics?

What about the fact that we still have American troops in Europe and Japan and that war was over 66 years ago?

Republicans just want one thing.....EVERYTHING

I thought the bible required follower to tithe 10% not everything?

What bible passage tells the followers of the bible to "Sell everything and give it to the poor"?

I'm just curious and since I dont know if the bible says it or not i'm asking you to back up your claim.

It's not necessarily the "followers of the Bible". But what he was referring to was this passage.

Book of Mark Chapter 10

The Rich and the Kingdom of God

17 As Jesus started on his way, a man ran up to him and fell on his knees before him. “Good teacher,” he asked, “what must I do to inherit eternal life?”
18 “Why do you call me good?” Jesus answered. “No one is good—except God alone. 19 You know the commandments: ‘You shall not murder, you shall not commit adultery, you shall not steal, you shall not give false testimony, you shall not defraud, honor your father and mother.’[d]”

20 “Teacher,” he declared, “all these I have kept since I was a boy.”

21 Jesus looked at him and loved him. “One thing you lack,” he said. “Go, sell everything you have and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me.”

22 At this the man’s face fell. He went away sad, because he had great wealth.

23 Jesus looked around and said to his disciples, “How hard it is for the rich to enter the kingdom of God!”

24 The disciples were amazed at his words. But Jesus said again, “Children, how hard it is[e] to enter the kingdom of God! 25 It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of God.”

OK I see. Using the Herman "It's your own fault" Cain analogy.

Who is at fault if you don't succeed in life?

Who is to blame of you fail to educate yourself?

Why is personal responsibility such a bad thing to you liberals?

If you buy a home with only 10% down and the value goes down 25% and you have negative equity...

Is it your fault for not taking into consideration that the value of the home may go down before you bought it with 90% credit or is it everyone elses fault for not keeping the value of real estate up?

I just dont get it. Why is being in control of every decision you make deemed as a bad thing by the left?

do you cling to your guns as well Goose?

 

[LordBrownTrout]

Have you seen what that asshole posts around here??

Oh wait, your another liberal hating neocon that thinks everything is to be blamed on individual failures.

I hope you have to walk away from your mortgage to. I hope your wife starts fucking a gangbanger, leaves you and charges you child support. I hope you get your checks garnished and you end up in the street to die in the cold.

All you neocon assfucks deserve what you dish out in kind, arrogant parasites on society is all you are.

And if all that did happen you would still be a miserable bitter wretched fool.

And if it did happen, something tells me you would review what happened, determine where you went wrong, and ensure you didnt let it happen again.

Am I correct?

Exactly, Jarhead. In his twisted scenario, I would have failed on everything. Accountability and responsibility prevent the likelihood of that occurring.

Brain damage perhaps?

yeah, to one person... what on earth does that matter?

What about the rich people?? They are on average making 75-100 times what an average worker earns.

So?

What about CEO's making 550 times what an ordinary worker earns when in 1948 they made 10-15 times what they earned?

What about them?

What about China? They are exporting 50 times as much to us as we are to them

Yeah, that's what happens when our labor costs are inflated.

What about the fact that we have 500 companies making money off of sick folks?

Id be more than happy if pornographers went out of business. But the first amendment protects them according to the case law of the United States.

What about the fact that in spite of that we rate 37th in the world on average health and death statistics?

What about it?

What about the fact that we still have American troops in Europe and Japan and that war was over 66 years ago?

seems dumb doesnt it?

Republicans just want one thing.....EVERYTHING

And Democrats don't?

Why would you wish ill will towards someone?

Because he's a sick little brat.

How many of your kids have different daddies?

Go ahead and lie. Fucking tool.

Why on earth would she have to lie?

It doesnt make sense to me either. I want to be in control of my decisions. I want to take responsibility for my life. I cant comprehend people who want the government to do everything for them.

Federal workers that are UNIONIZED make double what thier private sector counterparts do.

As to our military being in places where wars were fought over 60 years ago? We have treaties with those places and they have requested we be there...or do you think we ought not to honor such treaties as the Constitution stipulates?

When you locate the well of 'common sense' after you remove yourself from the class warfare mentality?

Do be sure to come here and let us know, will you?

It doesnt make sense to me either. I want to be in control of my decisions. I want to take responsibility for my life. I cant comprehend people who want the government to do everything for them.

A couple of words: Lazy...and ignorant.

But it's in our best interest to be aware and take responsibility for ourselves.

Couldn't agree more. I'm tired of carrying people that are able to work but won't. I despise moochers. I absolutely LOATHE the politicians that Enable the behaviour.

Of course you can show linked proof that.....

1) Unionized federal workers make DOUBLE what their counterparts do (and whatever the hell their "counterparts" even are).

2) That we were actually requested by other nations to put a military presence within their borders.

 

[editec]

I come from the common people.

Based on knowing these people very well I have to tell you that COMMON SENSE is a myth that the ignorant like to tell themselves about themselves.

The common man is ignorant.

The sense that they understand complex things intuitively is usually a conceit.
