If the "others" jumped off of a cliff would you jump off the cliff too. Why do you have to be a follower, why can't you be an individual or a leader? You are pathetic.

It would have been much better had the States been given the freedom to exercise reform on their own, like Mass. did. But time is running out and O-Care is all we have. -Greg

Well, others did "jump off a cliff" when they decided to use their (and my) tax dollars to get embroiled in two pointless wars that have cost thousands of lives. Just as you don't want your taxes to pay for the less fortunate, I equally opposes using them to pay a) the more fortunate (tax breaks for the very rich), and b) to get involved in unjustifiable wars on the basis of lies. But you just don't see it, do you? |
