No, we like living in a country where everybody has a chance at the American Dream whatever that may be to an individual.
unless you are black, hispanic, gay, poor, disabled... then you really don't have those chances..
Now, we USED to have that, when we had good union jobs and fair wealth distribution... Now the american dream is starting off with a shitload of college debt you can never pay off, waiting until 30 to have kids... that's all kinds of fucked up.
If you are successful at whatever, you are treated no differently than the garbage man. Government takes most of your money away and you are not that better off than before your success.
Hah... want to hear something hilarious.. A kid I grew up with got a job as a Garbage man in Chicago, and he makes about $70,000 a year. And he sits in his garbage truck all day listening to Hate Radio, kind of like you do, and is racist and right wing as all shit.
And when I pointed out to him that if it weren't for the Democrats, if the people he supported got his way, he'd probably be replaced with a private company that pays people $18.00 a hour, he was very, very upset.
Funny thing. I think the garbage man should be paid a fair and decent wage... he does a lot more good than the ass-kissing middle manager at an investment company.
Yeah, you served in the reserves or something, and now you protest America at every turn. I'll say my patriotism surpasses yours tenfold. I say this is the greatest country in the world. You say differently. I say this country gives you the most opportunity than any other in the world. You say differently.
Actually, I served for 11 years, six of them active duty... Got out at the rank of Staff Sergeant... And up until about oh, 10 years ago, I was more right wing than you are... Than one of those ass-kissing middle managers fucked over my career because I had a medical issue and boasted, "This is why I'm glad I don't have to deal with a union!"
In America of 50 years ago, that wouldn't have happened. In Europe that wouldn't have happened. That's where America has been kind of fucked up.
I honor our Constitution and the founders that created it. You call our founders slave owners and reprehensible for the creation of this great nation.
I call them slave rapists, because that's what they were. They owned slaves. That's the original sin of this country, that we talked about Freedom, but the constitution was designed to protect the political interests of those who owned slaves.
And gee, sorry, guy, "Saving us from the horror of being Canadians" is hardly something to get excited about.
We win every election without cheating. You just don't like the rules of the game.
The rules are cheating the concept of holding an election... why hold an election at all if you just ignore what the people CLEARLY said?
