    Progressives don’t believe in the American Dream because they have never lived a life without it. American Progressives have no understanding of the sacrifices that the men and women of previous generations have made so these spoiled little brats could live in the decadence that they live in, and since only 2 million of them will ever have served in the military in war, most of them never will.

  2. geofiles Says:

    Progressives are Godless, and they are Soulless. They are hypocrites. For a Progressive, any law to control people is okay, so long as it doesn’t apply to them. For a Progressive, it is better to live in safety as a slave than to live in danger with Liberty. Progressives feel they are entitled to all of the best that life has to offer whether or not they contribute to their own success. Progressives are the cancer, the plague that will eventually destroy mankind and any remote concept of Freedom

  3. geofiles Says:

    Progressives think they are the ones with the answers, and they are. It’s just that their answers are all wrong. Progressives believe in the concept of “too big to fail” in a country that has always celebrated the little guy, the underdog. Progressives believe government and men can give rights when those rights are granted to each of us at birth by God.

  4. geofiles Says:

    Progressives are the ones who created the idea of an American Empire, and later a global authority that is referred to as the New World Order, but we know it as the United Nations. Progressives caused every economic collapse the United States has ever seen from 1920 to 2010. Progressives broke the back of the US automakers, and created our dependence on foreign oil.

    @geofiles its always easier when you have someone to blame (Nazi). Progressives caused the earthquake in Chile. Progressives killed Jesus. Progressives ate my cereal.

  6. DojoNDude Says:

    Sounds to me like geofiles is describing republicans. I haven’t heard so much hatred and misinformation spewed about a type of people since Hitler started the holocaust! Geofiles is probably firing up the ovens right now. Good thing moderates read that filth and decide to vote democrat.

    also, capitalism is the best system humans have had… but that does not mean helping people in need is a bad thing

    So you are willing to forget about all of the government failures from the past?

    NAFTA – failure

    Social security, medicare, and medicare part D have unfunded commitments over $100 TRILLION.

    Response to Katrian

    Post Office is in trouble while fedEx ad UPS are doing well.

    You are nuts if you trust our government to control more of your life or take care of you when they can’t take care of what they are doing.

    Wake up and set the kool-aide down.

    Both of you, RebelRouserMC with his ongoing spam posts and tyu3456 with the uninspired retort, need to present some findings. Insinuating that the burden of proof is on your audience is intellectual dishonesty. It is also an ineffective means to present a case. Come back when you have something substantive to add to the discussion.

  15. maskedphrogg Says:

    It is government regulation that is the direct precursor and cause of the problems present in Health Care delivery. Further and more restrictive regulation is merely a tightening of the shackles upon that market.

  16. maskedphrogg Says:

    The discussion here doesn’t revolve around *your* student aid. The point that needs to be seen is that over time all this monetary aid has given incentive and reward for raising the price cost of secondary education. It is not that you receive aid but that because so many thousands upon thousands receive aid that education costs so much more than it would in a market w/o that government granted aid. This program props up unnaturally high tuition and helps ensure tuition remains at that level.

  17. maskedphrogg Says:

    You don’t. Taxes for road maintenance are collected at the Point of Sale of petroleum products used to power your vehicle. If you don’t buy gas you don’t pay the tax.
    Glad to clarify that point for you.

    what seems to be rarely mentioned is the issue with middle and upper lower class students.. especially those students who don’t have help from their parents.. fortunately my parents have been very helpful in my education, but i know a handful of students who don’t qualify for grants but have to pay for college by themselves because their parents won’t pay, i understand that it would make it easy to trick the system if there wasn’t some regulation on it but it seems that there should be an

  19. lindseyjunebug Says:

    an option for those students.. i know of a student who wasn’t even living with her parents for a couple of years and still couldn’t get out of excluding her parents’ incomes, even after they weren’t claiming her on taxes.. this just doesn’t seem fair to me..

  20. tyu3456 Says:

    I would love to have substantive, informative discussion on youtube comments. I agree completely that to present a case, you need to present proof. However, RebelRouserMC obviously thinks that he can post an outrageous comment and think someone will listen to him, so I responded to him in kind.

  21. maskedphrogg Says:

    Check that.
    RRMC has been posting that simple minded line for days if not weeks
    Over and over and over again.
    One, this one anyway, begins to suspect that Rebel is a disinfo agent. Play badly with others and ensure your anti-social behaviour is associated with your enemy, or some target if not a specific enemy. The target here being those that have suspicion that Obama is not a natural borne US citizen.
    I take issue w/your reply as OP’s is neither stupid, unfounded, nor a conspiracy theory.

  22. tyu3456 Says:

    you’re right, it’s not stupid or unfounded, but I believe it still is a conspiracy theory, here is the dictionary definition of conspiracy theory: “n. A theory seeking to explain a disputed case or matter as a plot by a secret group or alliance rather than an individual or isolated act” so the theory is that obama actually has a fake birth certificate and is called Barry Soetoro and the secret group would be obama’s buddies/cabinet/staff, because obama could not do such a thing alone

  23. maskedphrogg Says:

    I fail to see such a conspiracy among the group cited. The crux of the matter lays in the fact that Hawai’i has document disclosure laws that prohibit the public disclosure of Birth Certificates without a request from the Subject of the Birth Certificate. Barack H Obama has made no such request and thus Hawai’i has made no public disclosure. Whether such a document even exists remains a mystery. Blood relatives have made public claims of a birth in Kenya. The veracity of those claims is opinion.

  24. tyu3456 Says:

    The fact that there are a multitude of questions that need to be asked and verified in order for this to be even believable makes this a conspiracy

  25. maskedphrogg Says:

    Self fulfilling claims now is it.
    The very existence of a valid Long Form Certificate of Live Birth has been called into question. Where is the hardship or difficulty in providing it? Hawai’i prohibits such disclosures independent of the Birth Cert Subject. Why is BHO holding out on requesting it himself?
    All other candidates for Elective Office are willing to make such document disclosures. What is it about BHO that gives him leave of providing reasonable evidence of his birth place?
