Ok fellas, other than CW no one has given me his side of the story. There have been little snippits here and there but mostly just cutesy one liners, and trying to belittle me for even asking such a question. Would seem your ideology has blinded many of you. The difference in ideas on how our government should function between the two sides is monstrous. The simple fact that the folks on the left want to take money from people they deem to rich and give it to those who are not is the basic premise of communism. The fact as stated above that we have had some forty or fifty years of taking from other people, in the form of taxation, and trying to eliminate poverty has shown that it will not work. We have more poor now than ever before, billions of dollars later. The plan was never to eliminate poverty, but to create a dependant society that eventually would never vote to bite the hand that feeds them. If in fact it were the later poverty would have been gone years ago. The government has proven many times over that it is incapable of running anything efficiently and you seem to want them running more and more of our lives. There are many flaws on both sides but I will still stand with the ones who want to live free from government intervention into our lives, let us work for our money and keep it, and educate our children with money actually going to educate them rather than the unions trying to figure out how to put more teachers on the payroll. Many of you have done nothing more than state how you despise my kind of thinking, but have failed to state why you think your ideas are better and how they will make all our lives as americans better in the future. I can only conclude that it is more a hate for the right than it is a belief that what you have to offer is better. I am an old duffer and what is coming down the pipe will not effect me so much, but I have children and grandchildren who will be overwhelmed by all this and I fear for them. My hope is that many of you will put the future of our country ahead of ideology, put our selfishness aside and consider do we really want go down this socialistic path. Eventually we will run out of other peoples money.
