    When did America start its downward spiral towards socialism/fascism?

    Gabriel, you do know that "Fascism" is a form of National Socialism right? It's just that you seemed to indicate that Fascism and Socialism were wholly different.

    Teacher Salaries By State

    Not only should public school teachers make less. They should should make nothing. Our public schools have done more damage to the United States than all the Islamic Extremists and domestic terrorists combined. Government Schools are the worst, most expensive, least productive institution in the...

    Libertarians: which do you identify with more, the Left or Right?

    I think of politics as a North/South rather than Right/Left. North being Libertarian, South being Authoritarian. I don't really care whether the nation is swinging right or left, so long as they are moving North. Both Democrats and Republicans love Government, it would seem. Republicans think...

    When can/should a wife become involved in the husband's work-issues?

    I don't know. I might be pissed. Business relationships are important and you never know what bridges you'll need to use in the future. I'm always weary of burning bridges in business. When I lost my business after the housing crisis, I did everything I could to keep good relationships with the...

    The Worst Presidents Of All-Time

    I agree. However, you've got to look at the big picture. Unlike FDR and Johnson, Lincoln had many redeemable policies. Yes, Lincoln pissed all over the Constitution, bullied the press, and destroyed a great deal of Liberty, but he did end slavery and he did hold the union together. The way he...

    The Worst Presidents Of All-Time

    You do know that this is a ridiculous response right? That's like saying, "So It's a good thing for Islamists to murder Americans", when people comment that they think George W. Bush was a terrible President.

    Subjugating American Government

    There are a handful of incumbents that I would vote for, but I don't have a single representative in North Carolina that is worth keeping that I can vote for.

    Subjugating American Government

    We just threw the Republicans out of office because of their irresponsible and lazy governing. Now we're about to throw the Democrats we replaced them with out of office. If the Republicans retake the Congress and fail to do a decent job, we can just throw them out as well, until some group of...

    Grade the Obama Administration

    It's the government that is "bad". We've got to destroy partisanship in this country. We need a cultural movement that is antagonistic toward the Republican Party, the Democrat Party, the United States Congress, and the Federal Bureaucracy. If this government can't be efficient, then we need a...

    Subjugating American Government

    Not if the American people view themselves as unified in their disgust and hatred of the United States Government itself. Let's stop blaming the parties and start blaming the government from the top down.

    Subjugating American Government

    I don't know about that. I don't think people are hungry for nationalism. I think they are hungry for freedom. I think people are finally realizing that every time they give the government responsibility for something, whatever it is, the government screws it up and then punishes the people...

    Subjugating American Government

    The United States Government is unsustainable, corrupt, arrogant, and despotic. For decades, every time one party has led us down an irresponsible road, we've "corrected" course by putting the opposition party in power, hoping that a change in Party would result in a change in circumstances...

    Grade the Obama Administration

    With both parties entrenched in all of these problems, why do you think the American people keep putting up with their government?

    Grade the Obama Administration

    I agree, but the legislation had popular support and the Congress pushed it through. It's not only the President that has no regard for the US Constitution, but a slight majority of American Citizens as well. We must ask ourselves, if the American people don't care about the Constitution, what...

    The Worst Presidents Of All-Time

    While I liked his opposition of the national bank, his attitude and behavior toward the Natives was unforgivable. He did lots of good things, but sadly & RIGHTFULLY, when you do something as horrible as what Jackson did to the Natives, all your good deeds go relatively unnoticed. I'd say Jackson...
