    MSNBC's core audience is unemployed. And nobody bitches more then the left. In fact, one of the biggest complaints about conservatives is their uncaring nature. They don't riot. They don't protest. They don't hold large rallies. Until the tea party came along, they basically went about doing their own thing. That's one of the reasons why the center right in this country has not been held accountable by it's constituents. Because they never say anything.

    But back to my main point, if you want to change the system RCG, get involved! Move down from the cheap seats and get on the field.

  2. Mav, could you please find a single post where I have in any way complained about our system? I love our system:D

    And having been on the field, being there does not in any lasting way change the game. The game is changed by the people who de facto own the field. These owners make the rules. Getting on the field means nothing Mav, and you of all people should know that.

    RCG, this might come as a "small"' shock to you, but not every post I make is addressed specifically to you. Many times I'm addressing an entire group of people. Go figure. So please do not take all my posts as a direct statement to you specifically.

    I never said "you" complain. I'm speaking about the liberal community. I didn't know you were a part of the liberal community. I thought you were in the libertarian community? I'm confused.

    Anyway, in general, I have noticed that the people who complain the most, do the least. This applies to the left and the right.

  4. Well I admire the message you are trying to convey to these types, but having been on the field for all of my 20's and a big part of my 30's, good luck with that.

    I don't need luck. The message is simple, if you want change, don't elect change, be the change! You know, hopey changey is just a bumper sticker. It wasn't suppose to do anything.

  6. Listen Hello,There is a difference between taxes and jury duty.Taxes pay for my safety from attack from other nations,the roads I use,for my food to be safe etc,jury duty is stolen labor.I have no problem with jury duty,but a person should be paid for loss wages ,until then I wont do it

  8. No contradiction at all.There are many liberals who will vote for Paul if he gets the GOP nomination and Obama if he doesn't

    So you love paying taxes, even though most of it is squandered with little to show for it, but you won't sacrifice income to serve your community.

    Again, I can see why you're a liberal.
