    Are Rights Fundamental? Or are they determined by the Government that you live in?

    Re: Are Rights Fundamental? Or are they determined by the Government that you live in I, personally, feel that they are determined by the Government you live under. Rights are granted by society and are not inalienable.

    Freedom Or Fairness

    When you watch Star Trek you cheer for the Borg don't you?

    Two visions of America

    Even if the GOP didn't filibuster, Obama still faced opposition within his own party, both from the party's right and left. The Democratic Party is hardly a united bloc, they are a loose coalition of people with various beliefs and viewpoints and they don't often agree. Obama had to face...

    Should There be TV Coverage of Open Supreme Court Sessions?

    You may very well be right. I don't see what good could come from this, but I do see several problems.

    Should There be TV Coverage of Open Supreme Court Sessions?

    I could see how it could cause problems. Honestly, though, as someone who has read Supreme Court decisions, I have to say I doubt many people would watch either way. They tend to be rather long and dry reading. As James's post above, trust me they go into great detail when it comes to how...

    Wow, you must have been on this site since it started, because you are the most arrogant poster here.

    Rick Perry ends White House bid and backs Newt Gingrich

    I've actually heard some people speculate that if Gingrich wins the nomination he would make Perry VP. It could be a decent strategy, since Perry could help Newt with the Evangelical vote.

    Christianity makes nations great

    What about the USSR. it fell, yes, but it was a great nation for decades and was officially an atheist state. In this context, great means powerful.

    Should “equal opportunity” mean free college?

    You've hit on a great problem in our society. People seem to measure the value of a another person based on how much money they make. People don't seem to realize that those English majors they attack have contributed a lot to society.

    How Can People Deny Trickle Down Economics...

    No they aren't. Now if those societies had significant sections of the economy under worker control, then you could say they are "infected" with socialism. Government run services for the poor have existed in various forms for centuries before the concepts of socialism or capitalism were...

    Left-leaning Libertarian vs Left-leaning Libertarian

    Of course he is feeling like a victim. He always plays the victim in his posts, it's ridiculous. I'm glad there are plenty of other libertarians on this forum, because he gives their lean a horrible name.

    Left-leaning Libertarian vs Left-leaning Libertarian

    Do you really expect any to believe your claims about being an assistant to one of the leading political scientists of the last 50 years? Here's some advice: Unless you can back them up, stop making outrageous claims on the internet, because most people won't buy it.

    How Can People Deny Trickle Down Economics...

    Sure you can use the term, but that doesn't mean it is correct. Any system where the means of production are held in private hands is a capitalist economy no matter how regulated it is or how strong the social safety net is.

    Left-leaning Libertarian vs Left-leaning Libertarian

    Why does anyone bother arguing with you? All you do is throw around terms like "welfare socialist" "statist" "reactionary" etc. when you have no clue what they mean. I swear, your ignorance is painful. I'm fine with people disagreeing with me, that's why I joined this forum, but I and...

    Left-leaning Libertarian vs Left-leaning Libertarian

    Ahh another post full of childish insults from Turtle that adds nothing to the discussion. You know, you would get a lot more sympathy for your viewpoints if you backed them up with logic instead of insulting everyone who disagrees with you. Not to mention your use of the term is inaccurate...
