If those are your beliefs, then I think you're a fascist. Not even the kind of fascist that has fun with it either, but the sort of useful idiot who toils away for his master as long as his diet for reactionary sentiment and a good witch hunt is satisfied. America is not so much more advanced than the rest of the world, you know. We're not Africa or anything, but the totally indigent in America are worse off than most of the industrialized world. The working poor are worse off than most of the western world. To be poor in America means having less in a country where everything costs far more. And people like you keep it going.

    But whether you're serious, or joking, or just don't give a shit, its all the same to me. This is the Backroom, and I'm happy to have a discussion with you no matter how much you offend me. Which really isn't that much. Opinions are like assholes, everybody has one and they all stink.
    How am I making it worse? What have you proposed that would elevate them from their condition. You are just giving a dying man morphine in an attempt at charity. Only they aren't mortally wounded, they are just con artists who care more about getting you to keep giving them the needle than they care about their own dignity.

    I don't think it is inappropriate in this thread for you to propose your idea of a good policy and see if I oppose it. I would like to legalize nearly all drugs. I believe that our policies harm these ner'do-wells and would prefer not to duplicate the severity with which they destroy their own lives. I believe in funding organizations that assist the mentally Ill to lead productive & fulfilling lives. I believe in technologically advanced educational standards for impoverished children and high quality preventative healthcare for them. In real work training programs as a requirement for handouts. Nothing would make me happier than to see no more filthy bums on the street and gypsies stealing from people. Even the worst people would love nothing more than for these wretches to reform themselves and stop dragging us down with them.

    "That rifle hanging on the wall of the working-class flat or labourer's cottage is the symbol of democracy. It is our job to see that it stays there."
    -Eric "George Orwell" Blair

    "If the policy of the government, upon vital questions affecting the whole people, is to be irrevocably fixed by decisions of the Supreme Court...the people will have ceased to be their own rulers, having to that extent practically resigned the government into the hands of that eminent tribunal."
    (Lincoln's First Inaugural Address, 1861).
