AmericaFAIL: Majority of Young Voters Favor Bigger Government

So does every so called "conservative" I've ever met.

AmericaFAIL indeed.

To those who favor big government - its math - do you understand numbers?

:sorry 2:

Everyone favors big government. Reagan doubled the debt, Bush doubled the debt.... Why you all uptight about liberals doubling the debt, but you love when conservatives double it? I don't understand you so called "conservatives".... Why no honesty?

I'm a conservative, and I think that most people (democrats AND republicans) want big government. The only difference is in what your huge government wishlist is.

It's so obvious to an independent conservative like myself. I see you neocons, and your hypocrisy is sad to the level of pathetic.

It's because of public schools, really.

I went through public school in maryland, graduated in 2006. The indoctrination was ridiculous. College was even worse.

All the naive kids eat it up

I am a small gov libertarian - not a RINO in any way

Not surprising. When you don't have God in your life, you substitute government.

I didn't want to belive it but this last election proves most Democrats are socialists and communists and a large percentage of Democrats who are not are idiots who fail to comprehend what is and is not socialism. Wealth, including income, is the fundamental means of production and when leftist politicians steal it to redistribute it to people/entites who provide no products or services, it is socialism. Anytime government goes beyond taxing only to pay for goods and services necessary to run government into seizing wealth or control of it to steer it for wealth redistribution purposes (e.g. affirmative action lending risking investor wealth to give away loans or free insurance via Obamacare) then it is socialism. However, the definition of socialism that everyone labors under, incorrectly, is original socialism where government owns product manufacturing at all times instead of seizing only the wealth it wants at the time it wants - the Third Way. The US and other countries have been stuck in the Third Way brand of socialism for many decades and they can't escape without war because more than 50% of voters are socialists, whether they know it or not.

in defense of young people;; old people fucked up.

if government has less power then that means old ppl with money have more power;; i mean i know it is corrupt all the way around but we are tired of our parents spending money frivolously when we are trying to save the world.

fuck the gov. though there are no leaders. and fuck u old ppl cuz u left us shit srsly...

Thread: The United States is not facing bankruptcy, it is bankrupt.

I have pretty broad shoulders, and I'm always prepared to forgive the debts of others should I find them to be genuinely contrite. Beyond measure, what I find most difficult to reconcile is how hell-bent those who favor large government are in marginalizing me and forcibly co-opting me against my will to participate in such destructive behavior. I'm sure DHS defines self-preservation to be characteristic of a terrorist. I'm convinced that the IRS concurs. In traditional New Hampshire fashion, I'm afraid I have to side with Gen. John Stark. Ironically we fought against the crown for our freedom and subsequent liberty on two occasions; And now, Americans can't run back to it fast enough.

Isn't the definition of "stupid" performing the same act using the same set of variables twice and expecting a different outcome the second time? In another thread, someone posted the question "what is a libtard?" If I have to say more, you are undoubtedly a product of today's public schools and the remarkable system of values that abounds.

Of course. Because young people are dumb.

Hell why do you think they recruit 18 years old in the army??

The portion of the male brain affecting taking risk is not fully developed until about the age of 25 on average.

Krauthammer: 'Easy to Win Elections When You Give Away Candy That You Borrowed from the Chinese'

[link to dailycaller.com]

There have always been people expecting something for nothing. What concerns us is that this mindset of everything should be free has become a way of thinking in our era on a global, generational scale. One might trace it back to the success of a startup and service called Hotmail. Hotmail gave away free email accounts. It was the beginning of the search for “eyeballs” and valuations based upon the number of employees and the pedigree of the investors. Hotmail was wildly successful from a financial standpoint. Free became a powerful strategy.

The Internet itself has promoted and fostered this concept. Content should be free. A generation grew up expecting not to pay. It should not be surprising that massive deficits and unfunded liabilities have been brushed aside by the cult of “free”. Despite the hard evidence to the contrary, the media continues to spin that the global economy is in the midst of a recovery. All is well.

Historically, the perception of “free” is sustained by conquest and confiscation. Once there are no more people to conquer or wealth to be confiscated, the system collapses. It can take centuries as we saw with Rome. We do not think so this time around. The world is too interconnected and too interdependent. When the wheels fall off this financial bus, it will devolve rapidly. The cult of “free” will find out that the costs for the selfishness and irresponsibility are astronomical. Unfortunately, the rest of us will be dragged along.

If one has wealth to preserve, the time for action is now. There are no pitchforks or torches visible yet, but there will come a time when the “free” mob will demand that governments consume all wealth. Real assets, particularly gold, silver and agricultural real estate have historically been considered safe ground. Switch out of fiat money and fixed income before it is too late. It is your best chance to stay wealthy and emerge from the old financial system not only intact, but perhaps wealthier than you ever imagined.”

The Romans had their own experience with “free”. In 123 B.C., Gaius Gracchus pushed through a policy of charging a constant price for grain throughout the year. It was not so much a policy of free food as it was intended to provide insulation from wild shifts in price....

“In 58 B.C., a politician named Clodius went further and established the practice of simply giving away the grain. By the time that Julius Caesar came to power, one-third of the population of Rome was receiving free grain. The practice continued until the end of the Western Empire some 500 years later.

The grain was not free. To someone living in the City of Rome, it appeared to be so. The reality is that it was being brought in from the provinces, particularly North Africa. It cost a great deal. Conquests were fought and many people perished. Slave labor was employed throughout the Empire. Labor, income and accumulated wealth were confiscated and used to give the appearance of free to those not interested in the source of their gift from the emperors.

Young voters want to be dominated and told what to do...with someone who can really enforce what they say.



They are ripe for the picking and will be excellent tools.
