[QUOTE="ByrdC130, post: 1857802, member: 4993"] And I agree that America needs to keep going forward, I just disagree with some peoples definition and direction of forward. I listend to a speech by Richard Wolf, ( The New York Times Magazine has named him "America's most prominent Marxist economist." [url]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_D._Wolff[/url]) entitled "Has America Outgrown Capitolism?" Of course he says yes, that the middle class are "wage slaves" to the owners of business'. Well it seems to be reasonable enuff that someone has to do the dirty work, the middle work and the upper leverl work. The difference is that this guy thinks the Gov ought to own the company and provide all us lil wage slaves all of our needs equally. We'll all feel apart of the big machine and we'll all be happy because we won't need to think for ourselvs, freeing up more time and energy to pursue more moralistic goals. This is an example of a fwd direction that I don't particularly care for. There are countries around the globe with the ideas that are being preached already, if someone likes those and thinks "Gee, I'd like to live under those circumstanses." Then fine, move to a country that has them. Let the folks that like the values and morals that the USA was founded on remain here to dwell in our own consertave stew and be backward. You see, to go along the lines of liberalism, you have a choice of many countries to choose from. But there is only one country that had freedom of choice as one of it's greatest assets, if you don't agree with it, please feel free to let us simpletons stay here in our conservative ignorant bliss and go to a more enlightend thinking eutopia somewhere where it's already established and become the shining becon to the universe! Don't change my country to become just like another country that doesn't work as well, please, that's all I'm asking. [/QUOTE]
