Call me Shard, confuse the newcomers :wacko:.
Aye Aye Shard.
They're trying to. At least, a few have. The problem is that we're a capitalist society that realizes that government involvement ain't all bad. This leads to government controlled corporations and a heavy involvement of regulation. And that leads to the dreaded IT'S SOCIALISM label, which automatically makes it unpopular. Because those filthy red commies are the only commies. Endorsing it has often been political suicide. I mean, just look at the way Obama is portrayed by some of the more vocal groups. It has pretty sizeable down sides, I'll admit. But it can work out too in certain capacities. It's certainly not the worst option available. And many countries realize that. The problem is that your country kinda made it a point that government control is evil and leads to the country becoming the USSR. Even when it's something like healthcare. Which is barely more complicated than police protection and the like, really. But that's another story.
Why complain about what should already happen I tell some people who can argue a point to hell and back. We always hear about the best and newest medicine in the works, then we look at out pockets and say "can't afford it". Well when a person proposes a solid plan to allow all Americans that luxury, Backlash forever. We'll make fun of y'all tax paid health care, but won't endorse it. Asinine I tells ya.
And the Socialism tag is only relevant if it was to violate core values of life. If government involvement helps society in whole, all the more too it.
Just no abuse, and no misinformation please. It really kills sound judgement in "controversial" subjects like this.
Going through some old record I got from a relative. Hilarity. :wacko:
Haven't heard the word "negro" since I visited old Nan's house.
I agree with Sword. We need a health care system like Canada. It's amazing how republicans can get people to vote against their best interest. If we vote Romney in, we are literally shooting ourselves in the foot. I'll join you in Canada Sword.
Yay! :flower:
Wow, Jazz. How old is that record? Does it say that it's sponsored by Pepsi?
Produced by Pepsi. Most of the others are dated as early as 1960 and as late as 1967.
Monaural :ahhh:
What blasphemy, I do Dolby :shades:
Oh. My mom was a kid back then. Wow. they might be a collectible item, Jazz. You never know. I've never heard of Pepsi producing records. Interesting.
It's still interesting. People collect weird things, Jazz.
I held a good condition of Dr. Martin Luther King's speech on vinyl.
Gave it to my aunt thought, she wanted it.
Apparently the line is drawn at health care and crown corporations. Once that happens it's straight to waiting in line all day for a roll of toilet paper.
Of course, no mention is made of the department of highways or government bailouts for failing (but necessary) industries. Nope.
I guess it's like that whole gay marriage thing. First gays get the right, next thing you know it's humans and dogs. Or humans and appliances. Rather than deal with it when it comes to that, it's a good idea to stop it before it gets even close. What? By that logic we should be banning heterosexual marriage? WHY DO YOU HATE GOD? UNPATRIOTIC! RAGH RAGH
And so on.
The information also has to be multi-sided. Everyone brings up the concept of "death panels". Thing is, death panels already exist. The question is, do you want people that benefit from you staying alive as a voter and source of tax revenue who are subject to strict regulation that forces them to rubber stamp your treatment unless it's blatantly a bad idea to decide if you should live, or do you want the people who are looking at it purely from a financial perspective deciding? I think the choice is rather clear. :wacko:
It's cool, Romney is all about the social health care and has a great record of promoting "european" policy. Oh wait, that's not the guy running? Well why the fuck not? The people in his state love the guy for his "just right of center" political leanings, and I can sorta get where he's coming from usually. Oh, right. Pandering to the far right. Well shit. At least he's not trying that "I'm a working man" bullshi- Oh for fuck's sake. :wacko:
The mystery of the vanishing naked photos of your aunt? :wacko:
:gnight:
Just paid £1.10 for a bottle of 500ML Pepsi. What is wrong with me?
This room is dusty as fuck.
Adjusting to new glasses @_@.

Pay day on Friday, woot woot.
