Hehe, I love it how the hive minded socialists can't think for themselves.
I'd be afraid to live in a country in which if I get cancer, I'll have to sell everything I own for the treatment? Actually most Americans (90%+) had health insurance before Owbowmacare came along.
Where everyone including the mentally ill have guns? "Everyone" doesn't have a gun - yes we do have gun laws to keep guns out of the hands of violent "mental" people.
Where shootings resulting in fatalities among civilians are common and mainstream? I suppose you would prefer knives? How about hammers?
Where if I get caught with a certain plant I can get jailed for life? Actually our states are legalizing recreational weed just like Amsterdam
Where everyone is so alienated and dehumanized by a culture blasted on TV and radio 24/7 that aggravates insecurities and celebrates the lives of low IQ, dysfunctional whores and assholes that they just conform and degrade themselves to suit? Where are you from where there's no TV? No social media culture? Probably some shit hole
Where highly intelligent and genius citizens can't afford to go to college? Obviously college isn't everything- Ask Bill Gates or maybe look at the US Average Household Wealth vs other countries
Where if you're not born rich, you're not getting rich? More lies from uninformed socialists-America has more rich than the rest of the world (Most did not inherit their wealth)
of course they can't think for themselves, thats why they're SOCIALISTS
he probably lives in his moms basement, too scared to come out because the "world is scary" lol

I see higher scale restaurants, hair stylists, fitness centers, dentists, apartment complexes, ect. all being run and owned by corporate entities.
It's bad for several reasons, it takes opportunities away from local residents, and it also takes the money out of the regional economy. Once again, this was NOT the traditional capitalistic model in the US, this is capitalism taking a turn for the worst.
We already know what the Wal-Marts and Targets has done to small town main street, I don't see it stopping any time soon.

qman said: I read a great article in my local newspaper a few weeks ago, they interviewed the owner of one of my favorite local restaurants, he's an Italian man in his early 60's, but it knew his stuff.
He had owned many restaurants in the past 35 years, but he said he could never open up a new one in this current environment, way too much regulation and way too much corporate competition.
The corporate lobbyists are the ones that created all of this excess regulation to keep out the small business man and drive away his competition. The corporate companies have no issue with the regulations and also have no issues running at operating losses to bleed out the local competition.
The very rich and their corporate lobbyists created this regulatory environment to grab more market share, and to destroy small businesses, mission accomplished.

I'm not pretending to know everything. I have an opinion that I support with facts
You don't have an opinion. And you certainly don't have facts to support one if you did.
All you have is "liberals lmfao." Let's see how far that gets you.

I just love me some Bernie.
-------------------- In Hebrew, the words "wine" and "secret" hold the same numerologic value. When wine comes in, secrets spill out. Do you think the person who said that knew mushrooms? When mushrooms come in... Is there anything beyond a secret?

>And what's wrong with that?
They don't use it for good, it becomes just more money for the govt to burn through.
-------------------- “A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until the voters discover that they can vote themselves largesse from the public treasury. From that moment on, the majority always votes for the candidates promising the most benefits from the public treasury with the result that a democracy always collapses over loose fiscal policy, always followed by a dictatorship.” (attributed to Alexis de Tocqueville political philosopher Circa 1835) Trade list http://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/18047755

winner winner chicken dinner!
just like with the tobacco taxes, used for the Schip, they wanted people to stop smoking, and it did deter some from smoking, or quit, then the revenue goes down, and then they have to subsidize it... its a fucking scam... like every other liberal program, bilks the taxpayers and govt skims off the top...
