Kill the Death Tax

what is intellectually dishonest is your constant confusion of the purpose of this board. We are not limited by what the law is, but we have the right to say why it ought to be changed. You like the current system where welfare socialists buy votes by promising the "poor" that others have the duty of paying for all the social programs the poor want. I think that is a system doomed to ultimately fail as it creates more and more dependent sloths whose parasitic cravings grow faster than the bank accounts of those forced to fund the expansion of the dependency classes

Honest question: at what point do you say to yourself "I have floated this idea hundreds of times in different ways in many different threads for some time now and it is not going anywhere. In a poll I got my butt kicked by a vote of 50 to 4 and even one of the 4 admitted to voting in error. Every time I do it just catch flack for it and I am convincing nobody. Its time to give it a rest."

At what point do you decide that over the top hyperbole using phrases like

"welfare socialists"
"dependent sloths"
"parasitic cravings"
"dependency classes"

are really there to provide red meat for the already converted to your cause and really do nothing to further debate or stimulate any sort of honest discussion?

Do it then. Do it.

I am not the one who works in the same gd talking points no matter what the subject, no matter what the thread, no matter how many times it has been refuted and voted down. That would be the shell man. I only repeat when refuting you.

As I have said to you several times, take a rest from your party line for thirty days and watch and see the reaction from me. I cannot respond to your same old same old if you do not first foist it upon the entire board.

You mention me by name , you get me in the street. You got that? Maybe that is not how they do it in the fine gentleman's clubs in the precious Ivy League but it is where I come from. You mention my name - you got me to contend with.
