Look ChemEng,
Personal responsibility is to man up and take the blame for screwing up and I see so much effort by people looking for some one else to blame for their mistake or circumstance that it's sickening or sitting around for Uncle Sugar to come thru with money instead of getting off your butt and start to make circumstances better.
We obviously have a generation gap thing or something going on here and it being Friday and I’m sitting here at home with a cold one, I’ve done beating my head against the wall, cause at 4:30 everyday, the internet is turned off and I spend the evening enjoying my outdoors and family.
Now my outlook on life is pretty simple and being an evil conservative it’s pretty black and white and very little room for excuses. I'm not a nuance type guy, who tries to dissect every word and statement so as to twist it around. I can read between the lines on folks and don't require all the t's crossed and i's dotted, so I'll try to keep this as plain and simple as possible.
I’m very fiscally conservative and think you cut spending before you add an additional tax load to the public. Adding taxes is the lazy and dumb man's way out and should be the last option considered. We all know of the vast gov’t waste. And it takes some serious thinking to come up with some creative ideas, instead of reaching into the successful person's pocket and givng it to the lazy man. Anyone can come of with that and I expect more thinking from our Prez, than "Lets raise taxes". I can't raise taxes, I have to cut my spending.
I believe that if someone needs help and is willing to work for it, then it is Gov’ts responsibility to help them better themselves. I actually do believe education should be a lot more available, but they must maintain a B average and repay any loans, even if that means garnishment of wages.
Charity begins at home and I believe sending our tax dollars to any government that isn’t friends of ours should be stopped. Europe and the other countries could stand pick up the load and doing more of the heavy lifting instead of always pointing all that is wrong with America. That alone would free up billions of tax dollars for our programs.
I believe in human rights and any violation should be stopped, but we can’t do it all, so that’s a whole other can of worms and a discussion for another time, but they’ll always be evil in this world and the best we can do is protect our country first.
I believe if you do the crime, you do the full time, no if’s ands or buts. I believe strongly in the Powell and one of the Bush doctrines. If someone says they are going to harm me or mine, then I’ll be sure to get the first punch in with everything I have. My word is my bond. I have never backed off my word. And anyone that hits a woman, child or animal, should be tied to the nearest tree and horsewhipped.
Now this whole conversation has really turned boring, especially to others here on the forum. because I am who I am and you are who you are and nothing will change that. And last of all, I’m not politically correct.
Now you can spin or nuance this anyway you feel like, you’d make a good lawyer, but I tried to keep it pretty straight forward and simple, so there would be no misunderstanding.
Crack a cold one and chill out man, it’s the weekend.
It's 4:32. :laugh:CB
I'm kind of scoping around for a quick pick up on a good house deal, so I'll always be needing more capitol around, both now and especially later. I don't want my money robbed by Obama's taxes. Happy Weekend, everyone
40 degrees here this morning, I may have to start a small fire in the living room downstairs just to take off the chill. Not worth running the furnace yet.
I'll keep your discussion technique in mind for future discussions. It'll make things must easier on me. :laugh:
