The military is an inherently socialist enterprise. The government takes money from everyone to pay the salaries and benefits. The mechanics of the funding and payments are very similar to welfare, food stamps or any other government income redistribution scheme.
Yes it's just like food stamps, welfare and other gov. income distribution schemes... except people in the military actually work for their pay and many of them risk their lives for the safety of others.
You only answered half the question. Care to address the other half? What were Federal income-tax rates like in the 1950s? Particularly top marginal rates.
Why do you feel people are too stupid to care for themselves?
Of course, you could exchange "(neo)conservative" (because there are no actual conservatives in American politics anymore, and certainly none in the GOP) with "liberal" in the above sentence and be saying something every bit as valid and accurate.
The Dems suck, but the Repubs are just as big into nanny state crapola as the Dems.
All the way down to deciding which consensual adult couples can marry and constantly interfering with the personal reproductive rights of people.
The GOP is every bit, 100% as invasive and intrusive into the rights of private citizens as the Democrats.
Why, do you think he should die in the gutter if he is?
That sure would make it a lot easier. Today's liberal Democrats are the scum of the Earth and I have a really hard time having any pity for them even in situations where they're in need through no fault of their own. When you go out of your way to hurt other people like today's liberal Democrats do it's hard for me to get upset when they get a little of what they deserve in return. I don't tolerate intolerance and today's Democrat party is built on hate and intolerance, I say let them fend for themselves since they created these problems.
Don't worry, he won't die in a gutter, we now have Obamacare.
Exactly, he's got nothing to worry about. Millions of Republican voters will be forced to pay for him and millions of Democrat voters just like him. Remember Romney's 47% comment, he was right and people hated him for it.

OK, so you're on the record as wanting anyone who disagrees with you politically to die.
Congratulations! You've now placed yourself firmly outside the realm of civilized debate.
