No two or more humans can ever be equal.
No matter what you do to try and balance it they won't be, one will always have more money, better looks, more authority...etc.
Satan wanted to be equal with God and look at what that story has to say.
All animals are equal.
Some animals are more equal than others.

You know there isn't such thing as satan or God, right? This reminds me of people on reddit/facebook who quote the bible verses as if they are fact, makes me laugh.

Humans might not be equal, but they should treated as equals.

And no, animals aren't equal, many species, but you can treat them all as ethically as possible.
 
I'm talking about any human.
Giving out checks to people(dosen't matter what race they all do it) who can but wont work while taxing the crap out of everyone else is completely detestable.

You know what I find disgusting? A guy like you from a state like Arkansas. Did you know your sorry ass little welfare state takes $1.53 from the federal government for every $1 you pay into the tax system? Your state the 10th on the list.

How does that make you feel? Failure comes to mind. You should cut off your face.
 
Onceler you little fucking bitch come back here and eat shit. Your pathetic little state TAKES from ME. You should fucking order me a pizza or some shit. I'll pm you the address to send it to.

95% of what's said here about liberals is wrong or lies, I can't remember the other 5%.

Quite wrong. In fact, the 'idle rich' are the real agenda of the Republicans.

I really wish people would stop wishing violence/death on other forum members. That says more about you than the person you wish to hurt.

Disagree with him? Fine, tell him so and that's he a moron, whatever. Telling him to cut off his face, kill himself, <forbidden acronym> is not OK.

Feel free to ignore me though, I am living in Arkansas so apparently what I think or say doesn't matter. Regardless of the fact that I'm not a bigot or radical right/left wing.

It amuses me the people here that show bigotry towards the state of Arkansas for the minority of people that are still bigots in this state.

Cutting taxes on the richest 1% who are parasites on the 99% so that their share of income shoots up from 8% to 24% while the first generation in US history is worse off than the previous generation is what's detestable. Cutting the incomes, wealth, rights, freedom of the 99% for the benefit of the 1% who increasingly need to reduce democracy to protect their having such a huge share of wealth is what's detestable.

Relax, its a quote from a movie.

Wrong. Liberals want to enforce equal outcomes.

I'm a liberal, and I advocate equal opportunities, not equal outcomes. My liberal friends think the same way I do on this topic. Furthermore, I'm not aware of ANY liberals in the public eye who advocate "equal outcomes."

Is it possible that you're wrong on this?

First thank you for your service.

What sacrifices?

As far as I know we still have a voluntary military so it was your choice.

Speaking of choices.

What proof do you have of any of my choices being poor?

I've heard this bullshit line a zillion times from the radical rich righties on here before and not one can show proof of "wrong" choices.

I am not crying either, I continue to soldier on as evidenced on here.
 
We're all trying to achieve the same thing. It's how we get there that liberals and conservatives disagree on. That said, legislated equality via entitlements and constraints on markets is what Greece, the former Soviet Union, and China have all tried in one form or another. None of them succeeded.


Free markets, despite imperfections, have still produced the most prosperous societies we've ever known.


No, it isn't exactly fair, but there is no utopia. America is among the most well-fed, literate societies on Earth. You can't legislate fairness and prosperity into existance. It isn't possible, and all that entitlements ensure is the equal distributrion of poverty. History has demonstrated that any argument to the contrary is absurd.

I agree tax breaks for the rich are bad, all that taking from the hard working and giving to the lazy.

edit: You did read the same "Animal Farm" I did?
