Exactly, I've always thought it as a tug-of-war with no decisive winners.

Pure capitalism is bad, pure socialism is bad. A mix of the two is the best.

I think that it should be obvious too much of anything is bad...especially in politics. We have two factions who literally have control over our lives. Given the power available to those in the current system. I don't think that there should be any question about one party or political philosophy possessing all of the power. What a nightmare we see, historically and in the present those nations who are held captive by dictators and theocracies.

But the hard core reality is...I genuinely believe to the core of my being that a statistically significant number of people right here in good old America, despite them seeing the devastation caused by despotic systems in other countries...STILL would reduce our government control over to a single party/ideology.

Ignorance is the most dangerous social enemy known to human kind. Just because we are in the 21st century...we are still at risk of being a nation ruled by people put in office by people who are ignorant.

"It appears that the U.S. government no longer fears its citizens. We are becoming more and more powerless to effect real change in our system of government. We are fighting each other while supporting increasingly aggressive, corrupt political parties and an ever growing government.

We should 'all' direct our outrage at Washington, not each other.
Divide – they have. Conquer – they will." ~ Maxcy - NoPC~
 
As per the OP... no.

But there have been times I've thought we'd all be a lot happier if we split the USA into two autonomous halves, and let the leftists have one and the righties have the other. Wait a hundred years and see whose policies are most effective....

Why should the USA government fear the citizens? The citizens have shown they are willing to be bought off.

I was thinking more along these lines....

Slavery....get's **** done.

we can just enslave our 7-12 million illegals, cheap labor and illegal problem solved! kill 2 birds with one stone...

Don't we already have "laboratories of democracy" at the state level?
 
Who would I argue with? Life would be so much less fun without some of the conservatives around here to argue with.

To be honest, I would bet neither. I think a mix of liberal and conservative policies, and change over time is the ideal. The emphasis should just be on liberal policies.
 
of course i dont want people who disageee with me to perish.
 
When I see some of the posts and questions I just shake my head and wonder how some people get the way they are, and ask, do some of these people torture puppies, were they abused as kids, what happened?

This Poll falls into the questionable category .
 
People say they won't, because they're on a public forum.

Ever wish to know the hidden truth?
 
Deep down, we all would.

This question is similar to asking:

"If you could control time and space, would you steal money from casino vaults, etc?"

Of course on here we'd say no. But deep down, Hell yes we would, with style.

If you could control time and space, what use is money?

At one time perhaps. However, the Federal Government has grown so powerful and pervasive that the States are kept on a very short leash. There really isn't the room to maneuver that would be needed for a real set of "laboratories of democracy" to be going on... and hasn't been for at least 50-75 years.

Because after I place $6,000,000,000 in a special hidden vault, I can unfreeze time and, well, shop.

YEAH BOYYYY!!!
 
Definitely not. A variety of political opinions are one of the things that makes this country great.

And I'm not arrogant enough to believe that I know best on everything.
 
From what I've seen, both Dems and Pubs, when they have full control of all branches of government, tend to make a total fracking hash of things.

Go Gridlock! :mrgreen:
 
I would like to see certain views themselves be eradicated but not the people who subscribe to those views.

Doesn't that take us back to square one? Who decides what views need to be eradicated?
 
Nope.



Seeing how the poll question is directed at the individual then it is I who decides.

To eradicate views of those who don't agree that his or her views need to be eradicated. That might force you to make the decision as to whether or not to eradicate persons who don't want his or her views eradicated.

So, IMHO...back to square on.
 
I cannot stand a democrat. They are evil babykilling perverts in my eyes. They are thieves. They are rapists.

Aside from your name calling. Can you tell us all how to solve your described problems with any and all democrats. Would you consider imposing genocide of sorts of all who don't subscribe to your political philosophies?
