Do we need to start reminding you, too, about cats? @NinjaQuick
Cats?
On an aside, we've (humanity) got a foot into becoming the Borg.
Because once the united states becomes socialist, the programs will fail horribly. Then the government will put more socialism in trying to fix it. Then that fails. Etc. Until its Venezuela where every single political figure is socialist or communist and any replacement of one person brings another socialist/communist.
Then naturally the united states will shrink in power.
Except we're a much more disparate nation.. and it's gonna take a helluva lot more to completely shatter it. Look at the debacle of Obamacare.
Yet it's still there.
And every democrat wants to expand it.
Governments never shrink. Once the democrats win an election we are stuck with their policies and mindset.
It's been reduced piecemeal, perhaps not as rapidly as one would like.. but partially dismantled.
And there has been *significant* reductions on regulatory overruns.
It's been slowing down new regulations not removing current ones.
For example the tax code needs only to be 15 pages long at most.
Yet it's in the 10s of thousands, and every page will never be removed.
Or medical regulations, they should/could be cut by 95 percent and drug prices would lower massively.
Yet you miss that many many others *have* been removed.
. 1 percent at most.
With a growth of 4 percent
the vast majority of medicine won't help you.
it's mostly psychological
I'm a constitution-liberty-pro empire-ist.
good
is there even anything else?
Mix of constitutionalist libertarianism and pro empire.
like, exepct anarcho-monarcists.
But libertarian only on economics and only some other issues.
You seem hopeful.
Well, due to the nature of how the system is set up, he or she will be limited by the other branches. The system takes time to get into gear one way or the other.
Look at what happened in Virginia... or in Washington state before that.
So you think that seperation of powers will always hold socialism back?
so far vemon is cool
but there are starting to throw in some slight sexual jokes
In the foreseeable future, it'll keep it under some limitations.
i may have been wrong
Don't get me wrong, though, it's not all sunshine and daisies.
It's just that I'm more optimistic about the robustness of our system against those influences.
Well I do believe that we can get through it I don't think it'll be as easy as "seperation of powers"
