While I am dissapointed in the Castro regime, to call it a "waste of time" is cold and ignorant. Cuba has one of the best education systems in the world and zero homelessness. I'll agree that "free speech" is a problem there, but would you rather have it that way, or would you rather they have the "freedom" to starve and shoot at eachother? Hasta la Victoria siempre!

Even at the peak of an ice age, you will have small "warm spells" this doesn't speak for the overall trend though. Again, if you look it up (I'm rather computer illiterate so I can't post a link), you will note that the earths temperature has with a few exceptions been getting much warmer since long before industrialisation. There has actually even been a theory going that sudgests that it is this warming trend that has madfe it even possible for human civilization to blossom.

Pay for your own pot; geesh. I don't mind you smoking it but pay for it yourself; dont ask us older generation to pay for you younguns to party all day and forget to work. I was referring to the really destructive drugs. But yeah everything from marijuanna, to education should be free. Don't work all day, forget to party and then get on my case about it!

The NDP are capitalist and are therefore,on the right side of the political spectrum. There are no viable options for the left in Canada. The middle class is a myth, we are all bieng robbed of our existences by the rich. You must be a complete fool to believe that anyone is without a job because of being lazy. Most people don't have ties to the establishment, or parents that can provide them a post-secondary education. As for unmotivated, it would be foolish for anyone to be motivated to work at McDonald's or 7/11. The poor are part of this "we" you speak of, no matter how much you'd like to marginalize them. What's the point in working to get ahead if there is no way to enjoy your wealth? Education is for the rich. Health Care is deteriorating. Acsessories seem to be outdated the minute you buy them. Are you actually against the Liberals? or are you just jumping on the banwaggon?

^^ As a Vancouverite who has lived the experience, I can speak for those in Vancouver (except maybe Shaughnessy, or the BP's) alot better than I can for the rest of BC. And no, I don't believe in freedom of speech for the rich, so thier concerns fall on my deaf ears, continually.

That has got to be one of the more silly canards spread about "evil corporations".Many, many other people did "business" with the Nazis, and the American corporations listed above did "business" with many non-Nazis. BD, the argument above is tantamount to saying that Ford Motor Company sold a car to Al Capone therefore Ford Motor Company is a gangster. Or, Richard Nixon bought shares through the New York Stock Exchange therefore the NYSE is crooked. I have heard that every US $100 bill has traces of cocaine so anyone who has ever had $100 is somehow involved in the drug trade. I suspect that the arrival of anonymous markets several thousand years ago changed the simple religious morality of good/bad. Having never really understood markets, the Left not surprisingly sticks to that morality. However they will not do business with "communists". Are communists "more evil" than Nazi's?

It's true though, even the crusades were of a political nature.

I would be somewhat concerned with ozone depletion for the sake of skin cancer. But other than that, if you look it up you will note that the earths' temperature has steadilly risen since at least 500 years ago, before industrialisation.

I was mentally ill long before I ever did any drugs. Matter of fact if we were to legalize all drugs and more importantly make them free. What would be the incentive for pushers to push?

^^^ I'd sudgest replacing it with a system that actually deals with reality. If we make it so that people don't have to cheat, steal, brown-nose, or brutalize in order to survive, then people will begin to understand the trivialness of thier violent tendencies. In short, I believe in a society without hierarchies. Human interaction is much more complex than that of a wolf pack, and therefore we should strive to make that so.

Alrighty, because I used a word that has upset the administrators of this forum, my post was deleted do to lack of political correctness. Even though there are many white supremacists on this board who have extremely harmful view points. Here we go again. What I never see raised in the American debate over gun control, is the issiue of exactly why it is considered constitutional. The American revolutionaries were in favour of an armed citizenry, and the right to form militias, so that you could "throw the bastards out" if they started to act like an empire. As they have since at least WW2. The right to bare arms was not meant to be reason for white bigots, to use them against minorities who happen to live in their nighborhoods. As is often the case, hence the "protecting my family" argument they always give you. Liberal enough?

It means they love the cowboy thang, they believe strongly in feudalistic family values, and are proud advocates the American boot-licking way of life. If you think they are irrational now, just wait until that oil money moves elsewhere. I'd sudjest they move to Saudi Arabia to escape Canada's communist tyranny.

Fucking couldn't agree more! The worst is how righteous they get about the new generation. "Oh you guys are so violent just like the greasers!" And then they have all that undeserved nostalgia about the 60's! :angry: I mean give me a break, just because black people can piss in the same toilets as white people in the southern United States (which, don't get me wrong, is great!) doesn't mean that racism is anywhere near strangled. Liberals and conservatives can now cover-up their racist motives with politically correct jargon, and all of the sudden everything is right with the world .

The real ironic thing about that, is that most real communists are more worried about real threats like fascism, rather than nonsense paranoia like global warming.

I was more arguing against out and out environmentalism. I'm not denying that we are fed propaganda all the time. I agree that fossil fuels being used for the automobile industry is beyond retarded, however we need these fuels to make many of the plastics fundamental to our lifestyles. This means that drilling (destruction to the environment) will need to happen. The only possible way to free man kind from an eternity of poverty is industrialization, and if a whole load of species that in no way help sustain human existence have to go extinct, I'm regretably all for it. Just think, tens of thousands of years from now, when hopefully we have humans travelling around in space, do you think it's even nearly concievable that we will give two shits about the siberian tiger, or the duck-billed platypus? Me and/or you may care for this animal because we are still a very young species and still very closely connected with the natural environment, but it's irrational to get in a huff over something that is bound to happen.

Better yet let's go communist. We'll rip down all religious buildings that have no historical significance. We'll put an end to wage slavery, and prostitution. Free evreything for everybody. We'll also put an end to marriage, so no need for a ring!

What is Alberta?: American cultures' middle finger to Canada!

English is the most prominent language because England made some of the biggest gains of all the european powers directly after the industrial revolution. If a God existed it would be necessary to abolish him or it! If Hillary Clinton or any woman became president of the United States, it would only bother me for the sake that she could act just like Margerat Thatcher. She could be a completely horrible fascist, and everyone would champion her for it simply because she had a vagina. I'm no liberal I'm an anarchist.

So I'd imagine you reject scientific and factual evidence, it's people like you that get me thinking Stalin was not a bad guy.

Yes the liberal extreme right bother's me. But the NDP are moderate center. More liberalism is not gonna help the situation. I can't speak for the rest of BC, but Vancouver has get it's sights on liberating itself fron Canadian colonialism, if we ever want to have control over our lives.

When people see that the only way to resolve issues is through brut force, it becomes almost an addiction for some. The end to police brutality, authoritarian schooling structures, "free" markets, historical glorification of those that commit genocide, and over sensationalization of violent crime in the media, will make a drastic difference in violent crime. Yes the end to the violent political structure, will make a difference.

Oh yeah, and seeing as I haven't really adressed my feelings on the abortion issue, here goes: I believe that it would be great if people didn't have to get abortions. In reality however, our society doesn't provide for everyone, let alone make so that everyone can provide for themselves. It is in these circumstances that abortion is necessary to lessen human suffering. I love how the "pro lifers" get all in a huff over an embryo, and then once it's an infant they see fit to let it starve.

What are you personally doing to help out in the man made Iraq disatser!

Canada is overun with moderate shit for brains politicians, all that seems to do if throw us deeper in the pockets of the Americans. We need a revolutionary left coalition, we don't need any political party except maybe the rhinos . Boregios elections are a dangerous waist of resources.

English is the most dominant language in the word, regardless of what "the book" says. "The stranger that is amongst you shall rise up above you very high , he shall be the head ,you shall be the tail . he shall lend too you ,you shall not lend to him." Couldn't that also mean that women will rise up, take the moral high ground, and the majority of men will be resentful? Sounds great to me! You are clearly some sort of evangelical white supremacist. I am rational.
