brianw Posted December 14, 2004 Report Posted December 14, 2004 I believe that everyone should be spared the self-righteous right wing hypocricy that preaches the values of hard work and self reliance: values that are fine until life or the right wing controlled economy decides that you are not to have the opportunities: decides that you are to stay on he floor after fighting the good fight vainly. It is your social government who throws people in the street for failing to meet their set quotas. Why didn't you answer that? It is your social government who jails people for having the right to work. Why didn't you answer that? It is your social government that charges rental fees on private property (which means a poor person can't even grow a garden to feed themselves without paying state rent). It is your social government that charges a shelter tax. It is your social government that charges a fee for people to be allowed to build shelter. You keep claiming that we need to be socially responsible yet you seem to support such anti-social behaviour. If a homeless individual were given a home would that help them? No because they would be treated as a criminal and sent right back to the street for failing to meet your social responsibility. Can you answer these basic social questions? Quote
Hawk Posted December 14, 2004 Report Posted December 14, 2004 I doubt he can, he is interested in preaching not listening =p Most socialists like to hear themselves much more than they enjoy listening to others.. and god help the man who questions socialist doctrine!

brianw Posted December 15, 2004 Report Posted December 15, 2004 Brianw, if your questions made the slightest sense, I would gladly answer them. How do I draw pictures on this forum? Let me try a little slower for you. Government throw people onto streets to pay for boondoggles how is this socially responsible? High taxes hurt poor people how is this socially responsible? Government charges rent on land where poor could grow gardens how is this socially responsible? Government charges shelter tax (as part of property tax to clarify) which hurts poor people how is this socially responsible? etc... etc... etc... It is really hard to talk slowly on a computer. I tried leaving spaces between the words but they did not show up. The questions may not be worded the greatest but come on who are you kidding? Quote
Guest eureka Posted December 15, 2004 Report Posted December 15, 2004 Let me help you speed up your thought processes. First, "boondoggles," as you call them. do not throw people on the streets. Second, we do not have high taxes. And, high taxes do not hurt poor people unless they are directly aimed at the "poor people." Third, "Goverments charge rent on land where poor people could grow gardens" is a ridiculous statement. Fourth, why would they not charge property taxes on rented property? Fifth. I don't know what etc., etc., etc., means. You will have to stop stammering. Instead of leaving spaces between your words on the computer, try leaving a few in your head for the light of truth to enter. Quote
brianw Posted December 16, 2004 Report Posted December 16, 2004 First, "boondoggles," as you call them. do not throw people on the streets. Now I can see why people must keep telling you to go back and read the posts again. It is the governments who waste money on boondogles that throw people into the streets. Second, we do not have high taxes. What do you consider high tax? Anything over 100% maybe. And, high taxes do not hurt poor people unless they are directly aimed at the "poor people." They do not have to be directed at the poor to hurt the poor. High taxes to place a barrier in the path such that it is very difficult for poor people to break through. Third, "Goverments charge rent on land where poor people could grow gardens" is a ridiculous statement. Is it now? If you pay a fee to be allowed to keep possesion of something (land, car, TV, and so on) isn't that rent? If the government charges you a fee to keep possesion of your land isn't that rent? Many poor people could feed themselves quite well with some land and a garden. Ridiculous to allow people to feed themselves that's what we have heroes like you for correct? Fourth, why would they not charge property taxes on rented property? Where did this come from? Maybe you should read twice post once. Fifth. I don't know what etc., etc., etc., means. You will have to stop stammering. Noun 1. etcetera - additional unspecified odds and ends; more of the same; "his report was full of etceteras"sundries, sundry, whatchamacallit, whatsis, stuff - miscellaneous unspecified objects; "the trunk was full of stuff" Adv. 1. etcetera - continuing in the same way and so forth, and so on, etc. Need me to look up any more definitions for you? Instead of leaving spaces between your words on the computer, try leaving a few in your head for the light of truth to enter. If I had empty spaces in my head would that make me left? Is that what you meant when you said: Do I want to change people to suit me? Of course I do: Would I be like you? Quote
