This is what I found most objectionable in yesterdays decision besides the woman's issue. the Supreme Court found that closely held corporation are equivalent to a person under the constitution. this has far reaching consequences.

    I know what you mean. Oil companies, Walmart, McDonald's, arms dealers, Halliburton. I'm a pacifist, so I think I should get a rebate on wars of choice run by liars. As an atheist, I'm against the welfare of the churches, to the tune of tax breaks of some 81 billion a year. And, yeah, I'm also a Malthusian, so I'm against tax breaks for people having kids. Birth control, I'll pay for. It's cheaper, more effective, more fair, and less damaging to all of us.
    But, mostly, I'm against giving special status for corporations to make laws. There's a word for that. (Well, several). The one that comes to mind is fascism. Look it up.

People would have choices to make and pick a health care solution that fits their own personal beliefs rather than being told the have to have this such insurance which covers such and such. Why should anyone pay for any part of insurance if they don't need it? Individual insurance companies can and used to create programs for people instead of the government.

  • Alex McDowell Right off the bat, this is subjective and needs to be read "with a grain of salt":
    "Conservative Vs. Liberal

    At the core of it, Conservatives base there ideology on what they see as reason and logic and it is individualistic by nature, whereas a liberal's ideology is based on emotion and ideals and is collective by nature. A liberal is interested in curing society's ills by social engineering. A conservative is interested in curing society's ills by individuals exercising their own choices to better themselves. Because of this, conservatives view centralized power with deep suspicion. Liberals on the other hand see centralized power as an opportunity to affect great change for good."

    Conservatives, for instance, have no problem with centralized power. They just choose to not recognize it when it shows up as monopolies or market manipulators.

  • Alex McDowell "The Liberal View

    A liberal wants the government deeply involved in our lives. It is often seen as a parent to us all—or the big tent. They believe that the government can force society to confront its ills and legislate and enforce the cures. A liber    al point of view diminishes the individual's responsibility and believes people are victims or victimizers. This point of view does not see individuals as having power to rise above their circumstances in large numbers and therefore a savior must be found to "level the playing field."
    The Conservative View

    Even though the conservatives share with liberals the desire for a better society, they differ sharply in what role the government should play. In a nut shell, conservatives view the role of government as "the less the better." Since they see the combined strength and sufficiency of the individual as the only honest cure for society they believe that the role of government should be restricted to functions that support and protect individual liberty. They are very suspicious of government interference in individual rights, and they do not see differences in socioeconomic groups as a bad thing since, in their view, it is every individual's right to change those circumstances by choice and action."

    Unless, of course, you're talking about vaginas or collective bargaining.
    Hell, throw the whole damn salt mine at it.

Bad Guys, Good Guys, and Critical Thinking

  Bad guys can convince most of a nation that they're the good guys. Happens all the time. It's why we have advertizing, and why TV ads are so powerful. They can lie straight to you and make you believe they're the most honest people on the planet.   The only bulwark against that is critical thinking. Experiment, observation, reason. Not a preacher's authority, not what "feels right".  And, most definitely NOT authority.   We can get the Bush White House telling us Hussein was part of Al Quaida, and that cutting taxes on "job creators" is the route to a strong economy.   BP can run all the ads they want about how they're helping the Gulf come back, but they're doing everything they can to not spend a penny more than they're legally obligated to unless it's in PR dollars. When they do their job right, you almost forget that the damage was due to their criminal negligence.    The Koch brothers can hide all their ads and pr
