Hello? Can you answer the question about, "our government"? Do you mean local, county, state, federal? Do you even understand what you have said? You cannot bury the question underneath posts, Maverick. I will keep you freshly reminded. Take you time while you think about what you actually meant.
Ron, I used "your" own posts to answer "your" own question. Obviously, it all went over your head. Read your posts again. You already said it.
Thank you for a forthright response Piggy. Now down to the discussion of liberty. Our government today is the creation of attempts over our nation's grand history to get the words of our forefathers in line with actions of governments on the local, county and state levels. Because these lower governments found it routine to deny liberty to women and brown people, the federal government needed to step in. Conservatives want to return to states rights to these lesser government can go about unleveling playing fields yet again. No one is fooled by this.
RCG, you are lying again. I would equate the Taliban to be closer to your Occupy terrorist movement than the docile Tea Party folks. It has been American capitalism that has advanced the world the last 100 years. You socialists and communists would take us back to the dark ages. Millions, if not billions would starve to death.
All of that when all you had to do was use your own words to answer the question? A rather inefficient way to respond, don't you think?
Hardly. Only conservatives want to go back to insane things like policies from antiquated holy books.
No, I wanted to show you that you already knew the answer to your own question as you posted about it repeatedly. Power Ron. Power. The fucking local government doesn't have power. What? A local parking attendant is on the same level as the UN, your fav tri-lateral commission, the FED? Really? The state? Are you serious? Does the state of Illinois control interest rates all over the world? Does the state of IL wage war? Does the state of IL control the actions of people in Europe? Come on Ron. Those videos you posted. Your long conspiracy conversations. Are you seriously wiping all that from your memory? Well, I put it back out there for ya to ********* your memory. My God man. Man is not enslaved by his local city council. LOL. Or the state of IL.
Try to think before you type RCG. Are you going to tell me that American capitalism has not been the engine of inovation and advancement in the world for the last 100 years?
Conservatism is a social movement, and you are trying to deflect by talking about capitalism. But since you are talking about capitalism, it works best when everyone has the same opportunity to do the same things, that has never happened in our history. We are a great nation, but we can always do better in this regard.
