Conservatives built nations, traditions, industrial wealth.
Agriculture, industry, construction feed, employ and house the population, not Wall Street and Hollywood.
Police state, racial wars, homeless youth, what a progressive US nation. Thanks, but no thanks.

The origin and nature of political correctness.
Multiculturalism: its real nature and origin
Justice dept. statistics about black on white race violence

Civilization defined and explained in plain English
Homeless Youth, the root causes are ignored
What motivates socialists

Whether you agree or not, as an American, you have a responsibility to be versed in both sides so that you're able to form an intelligent opinion that's worthy of the position you have as a voter.

political correctness is infectious madness. it even spread to russia
- a country with 90% title ethnicity is now called multi-cultural and multi-ethnic
- very old and never considered as offencive word "негр" ("negr" in latinic) is now replaced with "african-american". it's used to any black man, even that never visited americas north or south.

Don't be too hard on them. It's hard to recognize the contradictions inherent within the indoctrination by the education system.

For the last week, I've been mouthing my way through Locke's "Second Treatise of Government". It's hard to understand what America is about when you're searching for the meaning on your own... It's even harder when the mainstream is encumbering your efforts.

Which side of the political spectrum has the highest percentage of highly educated folks, Left or Right?

Why on earth should I care about the random and non-supported observations from an individual who admits to struggles in life and who has become an internet blogger?

What insight does he have to make these "pearls of wisdom"?

I love this part of his explanation about how he came to realize that poor people "hated him for his class:"

"To my delight, a boy who was smaller and younger than me, moved into the street, and I knew that it would only be a matter of time before I could demonstrate my superiority to the newcomer. And when the gang resolved to have a boxing competition, I felt that this was my chance. Previously I would have been omitted from such a competition as being too weak to match in a fight, but now there was a possible partner, and as the gang split up into matched pairs I was pitted against the new boy. And when it was our turn to box, I gently, but firmly, displayed my clear superiority. Alas, when the judges, the oldest boys, declared the result, it was not me, but the new boy, who was deemed the winner. I was stunned."
