have you been born into extreem poverty in the United States to make your argument? Or been in a situation where your only hope for a full belly is free school lunch and food stamps or your only hope for bettering yourself is public schools? There's a reason that liberals push for social services that so that all citizens have at least some hope of opportunity.
and as lafiel stated,.. conservatives would be more than happy to regulate things like definition of marriage to ensure only their very narrow view of what it means to be an "american" can have access to the protections marriage provides a family.
the war on drugs was and continues to be a tool for discrimination.
the obvious flaw in conservative thought is that the world is fair and merit based outcomes is how the populace is rewarded or punished. it's a nice ideal that i wish were true but it isn't. |
Actually, yes. I was born into poverty. I didn't go to a public school, and was homeschooled... Got a fairly good education from it.
The problem is that I've done private chairity work and helped those in need. Directly. I've found that one-size-fits-all government services typically renders worse services than liberals chime in that they're supposed to accomplish, and clamor for more services time and time again. Speaking of education - why is it that we see the most expensive public schools performing the worst in America?
Back from the dead, I'm afraid.
