Last words of Uncle Monster (William Lassiter)?

[bob_villa]

They're shaking their heads and saying. "Same shit-different day...they should be doing good for others with their time"!

[rbowman]

Lockheed Martin, Northrup Grumman, Bath Iron Works, whatever Erik Prince is calling his merry band of mercs these days. It's a toilet alright.

[Roger Blake]

That makes you a thug. The State is nothing more than another violent, murderous "your money or your life" criminal enterprise. Once you take away the State's "special" status that the proles have been indoctrinated with and judge it as you would any other organization this becomes clear.

No, he was not. Jesus spoke of individual responsibility, not the collective.

[Shadow]

Yes I know. I lived during the 64 dictatorship. We were careful over what we DREAMED about. Only a fool would actually say what he thought.

He dictates all the time. His secretary says it's quite easy to type what he says. +1 on his dictations.

Sorry. I though Maduro was elected by the "demo" (that's the people, not the devil Trump). And that Guaiviado didn't receive ANY votes at all. Let me look it up.

<insert study>

Yes, Maduro was elected President. Guaiviado (as we call him) was not. So what makes Maduro a dictator ? In your own (rather amusing) words, please. TIA []'s

[Shadow]

OK, I understand. You need to consult with your fellow bible thumpers before you can reply to my question "In your own words". I'll wait. []'s

Bible Thumper: Evolution is a communist plot !!!!. I don't believe we evolved from irrational animals. Wise man: We finally agree on something. I don't believe you did either.

Here is what you are missing. Socialism only works on paper. When the fruits of your labor are taken from you, you do the absolute minimum that you are forced to do. So to get Socialism to work, you have two choices to get folks to act altruistically. Force them with a police state. Or throw a war. That is why Socialists are always looking for a boogie man.

Now it is very common for regressives to accuse the other side of what they do. Rules for Radicals, etc.. This is where the Bolton and Pompeo shit is coming from.

If anything, America is far to timid to respond to threats. Takes us forever to wake up and it gets us in far too much trouble.

For example: how did the Zipper (Clinton) turning down the offer of Bin Laden head on a plate help America? Just ignore it, it will go away all on its own?

As I said, gets us in far too much trouble.

Yippee!!!

Which no one else was following.

Moral of the story. Don't f*** with us. We can f*** back!

[jacko]

Worked fine in reality for Norway.

The benefits of socialism were actually delivered to Norwegians.

You may well operate like that, but plenty don’t.

Now odd that Norway did neither.

Now odd that Norway didn’t.

They clearly are both war mongers.

How odd that it has done the exact opposite in the South China Sea and now with Iran and North Korea.

Pity about Syria.

Not what happened in Syria or with North Korea.

It didn’t with Syria or the South China Sea.

[Scott Lurndal]

Again, you people don't seem to understand the definition of the word Socialism.

A capitalist economy with a social safety net isn't, and never has been, socialism in any way, shape or form.

[devnull]

Socialism only works for lazy people, ambitious people not so much.

[jacko]

You clearly don’t.

That isnt what Norway had. They had the government do their oil and gas and most of their power generation and that is socialism.

and never has been,

But getting the government to do their oil and gas and most of their power generation is.

[jacko]

Nothing lazy about Norwegians. They have been involved in the maritime industry for more than a century now, particularly as crew and its not an industry for the lazy.

Clearly worked very well for the ambitious Norwegians.

[Oren]

Don't feed the trolls. Please. You to Todd.

[Oren]

The time you spend on these clowns, you could be out fishing. Right?

[Shadow]

Just look up the definition of socialism and the various types. Social Democracy. Social Liberalism, etc. []'s

[Shadow]

And again, check which States suck most of federal taxes. Hint it's the Red (that's a commie color, right ?) States. . And which work the hardest and pay for the leeches (Hint - it's the Blue States). FAUX has a recent report on it. Google it. []'s

[Rod Speed]

Easy to claim that's what they are.

Not with tests in this country they didn't.

Irrelevant to what happens here and obviously one of the reasons that your healthcare costs are twice what any other modern first world country has.

And we do them mostly in the state capitals because they will normally do a stent at the same time as the angiogram like they did with mine, and if a bypass is needed, its done in the same bypass specialist govt hospital, although not normally at the same time, within a couple of days, with the same hospital admission.

[T]

Now that hurts!

:-)

[rbowman]

I don't think Stevens is much of a communist...
