You know what? I was a worker bee. I loved my job. I worked my ass off. Then life threw me a curve and one of my kidneys failed and nearly took the other one down with it. Now I'm disabled through no fault of my own, so stuff it with your bull---- about how the poor have no personal responsibility.

European country citizens have already learned this lesson: You don't get if you don't pay. Hence the 20%-25% VAT taxes that EVERYONE pays, rich and poor alike. No one complains, unlike the whiny greedy left here in the US.

So was Darwin (evolution, the eugenics of natural selection), the early 20th century left-wing progressives, and Margaret Sanger (founder of Planned Parenthood). Do you think we should eliminate birth control because that essentially evolved out of a belief in eugenics?

I think a women has a right to choose if she wants a child or not since they are quite expensive. I am not pro fetus I am pro life. Also I don't care early 20th century progressives believed there ideology of racism doesn't color my beliefs you might have some common ground with them on that though.

Evolution. Natural selection. According to evolution, you shouldn't even be alive. That's not a judgment on you. People die in auto accidents every day, too, through no fault of their own.

Eugenics isn't racism. It's simply a matter of abiding by the theory of evolution. Why is today's left opposed to evolution?

Evolution isn't something you oppose it just happens... The difference between the left and the right is the left wants to build and a better world and the right wants nothing to change or if they do want change its to undue all the progress leftists have made.

Yes, I'm a believer in the theory of evolution. How very shameful.
