I have been reading a lot of threads lately and people seem to make comments such as America is communist and then refuse to defend that position with comments like Your brainwashed and wouldn't understand or I am not going to discuss it with you because it is pointless? Why is that?

If you make a statement, defend it. Even if you are playing devils advocate, either support or dispute the statement. Don't puss out!

There are other threads where this happens and quite frankly it is quite annoying, but again this is America and all have the right to do as they please.

Him and another who is professing to be leaving the USA because it is communist and moving to Europe where they are truly free and non-communist.

You have to be educated to back up your position, that is why.

I hope you're not referring to me, when I said that America is BECOMING more and more Socialsit/Communist...I clearly stated that I believe in PURE, LAISSEZ-FAIRE CAPITALISM, not the watered-down version we have today.

I am against Affirmative Action, Welfare, Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, and any other government "hand-out" programs...I think children are the ONLY ONES that have a right to aid, since they cannot work and take care of themselves...

chesty, like I asked on the other thread, have you read any Ayn Rand books...drop me an e-mail, I like a lot of the stuff you've been saying the "We're all racist" thread...
