Yes, I am voting for SCOTUS.
This is the reason for voting now. Today's presidential choices are mediocre to bad and the much worse choice...
Yes, I am voting for SCOTUS.
Then vote third party. If nothing else, that shows the major parties that you're a voter whose vote they COULD have had. The losing party might even consider why and what it would take.Yes, I have already decided that I won't be voting. Neither candidate represents anything I can vote for with a good conscience.
Agreed, but . . .I wasn't going to bother participating in the perpetual farce, but I don't want an Obama free from fear of re-election consequences picking the SCOTUS. The Constitution is a piece of toilet paper now but I don't want to see it used to wipe his butt and shoved down our throats.
+1 for honesty. Good ol' graft, take money away from someone else and give it to meeee!Im going to vote for Obama. Atleast I know, Financial Aid for college won't be hindered in some way. Unlike Mitt, I cant just "borrow money" from my parents to pay for college. Derp.

As long as you in turn agree to make your education count and then pay high taxes for others to enjoy the same opportunity, you can add integrity to honesty.
You mistook me, I MEANT +1 for honesty. Far too often people say "We need programs to help the poor" when they mean "We need programs that help ME". And yes, I am paying higher taxes so that you can go to school. We all are. From where do you think that money comes if not taxpayers? (Well, the portion that isn't borrowed from the Chinese and other foreign entities.) The money has to be raised via higher taxes, as for ALL social programs, both for the money to loan out and for the administrative costs.OH, so we should end the Financial Aid program....
Hmm, how do you suppose Americans pay for college then? You know, cause..Im just some leech sucking up all the money from your paycheck so I can go to college for free. I can just ask my two rich parents to help me pay the $20,000 it costs a year to go here.
Lets get rid of home and personal loans...I shouldnt have to pay taxes so some couple can get the money to put up for their first house. I shouldnt have to pay taxes so two lovebirds can afford a wedding, etc.
What a joke.
You don't know anything about me or anybody else who has financial aid at a University right now, how dare you tell me that Im leeching?
And who exactly is paying for my education? You? Are you paying higher taxes just so I can go to school?
I have loans, not a free education...I am paying for this, just not all at once. I have an awesome job, I make good money for a college student and I pay my bills.
Basically, fuck you and have a nice day.
