Socialism works until you run out of other people's money.[W:954]

FYI, I'm still
working - I run an adult family home (with several employees) and I'm also a Foster parent of a medically-fragile child. I stay pretty doggone busy, thank you very much.

And where would you personally rather work as an employee - in a first-world democracy, or in someplace that doesn't have strictly enforced on-the-job safety rules?

Whats that have to do with your generic and inaccurate claim that corporations put profit over safety ?

The lack of safety is expensive in the 21 century, very expensive.

And companies have gone above and beyond the mandatory standards set up by the Government.

To the point of absurdity. It has nothing to do with your twisted world view.

And unrelated but I read your response to another poster concerning austerity.

Just so you know, austerity was never suppose to " fix economies", it was and IS an effort to pay back massive debt.

You libs shortsightedly claim its destructive when its simply the cure to destructive policies run amok.

Numerous European Countries in violation of the Maastricht Treaty ran up massive debt, borrowing off future revenues in amounts that exceeded the standards stated in the Treaty.

And the libz think MORE borrowing is how you address multiple European Countries bonds falling into default ??

Lol...

Obviously, debt was an issue when the Euro was set up as a all encompassing european reserve currency.
 
So you say that austerity is the way to national prosperity? Would you like to show me an example of such? Because I can show you lots of examples where austerity did real and lasting harm to economies. Your 'math is math' is too simplistic by half.

More dishonesty. I said exactly what I said, which had to do with the mathematical fact of deficit/debt reduction. I said nothing about "prosperity" or "austerity."

If you're so right, you should have to be so dishonest. Your posts are a tremendous waste of time.
 
I would agree to ONE and ONLY one socialist move.

Nationalize the Federal Reserve!

A private bank has no authority to print our money under the constitution.

Taking control of the central bank is the ONLY way we'll ever get an audit and find out how many trillions they stole from you and me!

Then send Navy Seals and Delta Force after them for repayment ;)
 
What alternate Universe are you living in ?

On the Job safety has evolved into an almost totalitarian concept.

To the point where safety is over emphasized and over implemented.

How long have you been isolated in your bubble of retirement ? 30 years

So now job safety is a bad thing.

Ah, the tea party psychology.

depends....if you talking about federal authority then they only have such authority in d.c. or federal property according to the constitution.article 1 section 8 ......second to last clause

anything else would be a of state authority.

The same tired old tea party meme. Like clockwork.

Since the SC disagrees with you, your crank theory isn't worth much.

really? ...lets turn to the constitution.

"To exercise exclusive Legislation in all Cases whatsoever, over such District (not exceeding ten Miles square) as may, by Cession of particular States, and the Acceptance of Congress, become the Seat of the Government of the United States, and to exercise like Authority over all Places purchased by the Consent of the Legislature of the State in which the Same shall be, for the Erection of Forts, Magazines, Arsenals, dock-Yards, and other needful Buildings"

Another aspect of tea party crank theories is quoting out of context.
 
"Socialism DOES work right up until you run out of other people's money"

Once the money is gone, guess what you end up with?
 
but would not matter who i post of the founders on the issue ...you will dismiss them all.

Why don't we just stipulate that you will quote them out of context and mischaracterize them, and pretend you're making a real argument. It saves time.

sorry you cannot accept the truth, that the federal government was not given authority over the people.

i know you love command and control government.

The SC says you're wrong. Case closed.

The Supreme Court has NO authority to 'legislate'.
nor does it have authority over internal states laws, only over interstate commerce.

Show me where you think they got the authority to ABUSE authority!

Just because our government, all 3 branches, are doing illegal things, does NOT make it constitutional.
Precedence in illegality does NOT confer rights or power to CONTINUE in illegality.

Just because you got away with it doesn't mean you WILL get away with it! Or are ENTITLED to do it!

Come-uppance is COMING!
 
Well the first has the one child policy the second outlawed honosexuality hmmm
may this won't be so bad after all :tongue4:

So you're saying China and Russia aren't perfect countries. Wow, this is deep.

But what does it have to do with GDP again?

God I love this crank theory. Like clockwork.
 
would you care,to do a little exercise and scan the constitution, and provide where it states government has authority over the people...to make them do as the government will's.

No, no. If I do you'll just repeat your crank theory and deny it. Better just to stipulate to the fact that you won't accept what the Constitution actually says and leave it at that.

so your saying you will not even try to find where the constitution says where they have any authority over the people.

if you would, you would find the federal government only has authority of 4 classes of people, pirates, counterfeiters and traitors, and with the 16th ..tax cheats. other than that they have no authority.

Actually I've provided you amble citations on other threads. You simply denied the words. It's what tea partiers do.
