    CONservative governMENt

    Our government is the potent, the omnipresent teacher. For good or for ill, it teaches the whole people by its example. Crime is contagious. If the government becomes a law-breaker, it breeds contempt for law; it invites every man to become a law unto himself; it invites anarchy. - Louis Brandeis

    They've got the best beer and the most choice of beer in the world! Can't let a country like that go down!
    And I forgot the chocolate. And they have Bruges, one of the most beautiful cities in the world.
    I can't pick on France because of Paris, the Alps and the women are so chic.
    Poland has Krakow
    Czech republic has Prague
    Can't pick on Italy obviously
    Portugal - nope
    Holland has Amsterdam and great coffee shops, so I obviously can't choose them
    Germany has Berlin and Bavaria but they were close
    Austria - mountains, Vienna and The Sound of Music
    Spain - Madrid is OK, Barcelona the most over rated city in the world. Beaches full of British chavs every summer and cranes everywhere you look.

    On the other hand if Spain develops these financial problems ... fuck 'em. :lol:
    no!!!cos they are speak spanish and its hot!!

    What happens if your country doesn't accept the terms? Will the outcome be worse or stay the same?

    don't bother explaining it... if you haven't noticed yet the OP's train of thought goes like this:
    healthcare = socialism
    education = socialism
    seniors assistance = socialism
    maternity benefits = socialism
    .
    .
    .
    etc.
    and socialism = bad
    therefore, healthcare, education, etc = bad.
    (oh and Canadians hate our healthcare system!)

  • the problem is the modern world is made up of the worst elements of socialism AND capitalism without very many of the positives of either. runaway corporate power AND the welfare state are unsustainable and will collapse on each other.

    Understand? I criticize both forms... and I find merit in both forms.
    I just thought you were one of those Tea Party types who believes the the government should stay out of the private sector, that the market should decide and that anything Socialism is somehow related to Hitler.

    Well you thought wrong....that's just the little box you, scb and gimmie try and shove me in...Even after I say I am not the person you guys try to make me out to be.....I am involved in the Tea Party mainly because I do not see any other movement trying to do something about the corruption in Washington.......I don't know how many times I have tried to explain this......

    That's great... first time i've heard it.
    I'm glad you also feel that the Tea Party has been taken over by douchebags that tag everything they don't like with the 'Socialism' label and that Socialism does have many postive facets about it.
    And that Capitalism is not a synonym for Patriotism, is not a cure all and that markets need regulation because they have too many times proven that they are incapable of regulating themselves.

    ok i was going to stay out of this thread but this is the FOURTH TIME you have drug my name into threads that i am not involved in...i am sick of this. if you have something to say to me or about me pm me. you always try to talk down to me and say i don't have life expereince because i am a liberal and i dont have kids.... i put you in the moron patriot teabagger box because that is all you talk about, and how health care reform is socialism and bailouts are unconstitutional and obama is kenyan and we need to be cautious about a mosque going up 2 blocks away from the big fucking hole in the ground that 9 years ago was the world trade center, etc etc...your posts speak for themselves. if you want to be perceived as intelligent and reasoned and "middle of the road", post intelligent and reasoned and "middle of the road" thoughts...if you align yourself with extremists like the teabaggers and post rightwing talking points and obvious right wing articles like the one in the mosque thread you are guilty by association.
