Fifty years ago most Republicans and most Real Etate agents had good old fashioned moral turpitude. Today most realtors have no morals. One of the presidental candidates admitted he cheated on his wife, but what he didn't say is he applied for a marraige license to wife #3 while he was still married to wife number two.
Moral turpitude is conduct that is considered contrary to community standards of honesty and good morals.
I experienced the "Regan years". They were not good time for me or my family as his failure to support alternate energy projects cost me a business. I have no respect for Ronnie Raygun. I have nothing but contempt for the Republicans that followed. Greed driven warmongers each and every one.
So you are in favor of unregulated gambling, prostitution, drug use, abortion, and use of firearms, using assets to benefit the economy and society as a whole?
Are you absolutely confident that every single person will "learn responsibility"? What is to be done with those that don't, or are still undergoing the learning process?
Having these regulated,has these problems gone away?NO
yeah right..........Democrat liberals are just as greedy if not more so.
"creed of a Democrat liberal"....they owe me,where is my free government check?.What will they do for me?Life isn't fair and the Dems will make it even for me,they are there to take care of me.
Back in my parents' day, Republicans stood for fiscal responsiblity, small government and integrity. That thought probably brings a tear to older republicans' eyes, I'm sure.
Now that that's all out the window, what exactly is it that Republicans stand for?
1. Say one thing and then, do another.
2. The well being of the Saudi "royal" family comes first, second and third.
2. Keep the population distracted with wedge issues and religious fundamentalism and rip everybody off while nobody is looking. (They've taken that one out of the Saudi playbook).
3. Bankrupt the country with runaway borrowing and spending.
4. Squeeze every dime out of the middle class.
And the Dems have yet to prove they're any better.

Of course, you refused to answer my question and proceded to an incorrect assumption of my intent. I never implied that they should. But, like drivng a car, they are adventures that ought to be restricted to people of demonstrated responsibility, and have the potential to harm society if widespread and unregulated. Reguylating these activities will not, and is not intended to make them go away, but rather to protect society from harm that can arise from their excess or abuse. My question was, Do you favor never having any regulations concerning any of these activities, or anything else? Just answer.
Are you from the school that argues that "I can control myself and act responsibly, so what's the problem? I can keep my knees together, so why do we need birth control or abortions or even maternity wards? I can earn six-figures, so why do we need public housing and medicaid?"
