Want me to not vote Republican? Call the socialists for me and let them know that if they, instead of having wealth redistribution in the form of social security/medicare that's raping my income, supported just a base level of care (an apartment and cat food maybe) for old people who failed to plan for retirement so that I didn't have to pay 17% of my f'in income (regardless of how much we make!), then I might not take homos making out in public so personal and I'd vote Dem. Until then, I'd rather vote Satan into office.

(Oops, forgot: They have to stop trying to take my guns.)
Oh boy...throwing that out should fire up a few *******s

BRB...gotta make some popcorn and grab a beer

I smell the stench of a freemarket worshiper.

You need to Mod Cut about Socialism you have no idea what it is, and therefore should refrain from talking about things you don't understand.

Ah....hate to mess your rant up with the facts...which party controlled congress and voted the "re-distribution" checks??

BTW...take a look at Obama's increase in wealth (last eight years) and explain to me who "benefitted?"

It's kind of funny to sit and watch the divided and conquered bicker amongst themselves. For the most part, I've concluded the Military-Industrial complex can have the lot of you. If you can't save your own as*, won't save mine, well, you just aren't worth saving.

So I guess you're saying that intellectual cowardice, moral bankruptcy, hypocrisy and backwardness are things that accompany aging.

No thanks, unlike yourself my values and principles are incorruptible.

I have the capacity to do pretty well, but I drastically limit my income to reduce the amount of tax I pay. I refuse to pay for old f'in morons who spent their retirement money on projects instead of having it saved. I'm not paying 17 f'in percent (which needs to be raised immediately to save the programs) to support them.

America should be turning them into soylent green at age 65.

I'm a big fan of capitalism, but not laissez faire.

Lawdy me! Is that the rage of an unfulfilled sense of entitlement I smell? Do tell where my ignorance is betrayed on the socialism. Hurry now... I've been waiting to feel superior.
