What are your political viewpoints? Not in regards to current party in power, but rather overall.

i'm both and neither.

as far as freedoms go i am very liberal

fiscally i am more of a conservative

before bush won in 2000, before christians and muslims ruined the world, i would have considered myself much more conservative, but now the right is tainted by so much wrong

You are given the right to choose, and even if none of the candidates gives you an erection, you can pick the least evil one.

If you do not vote, then don't bother to bitch.

I agree. I hate being a fiscal conservative getting lumped in with everything else now associated with it.

I'm pretty close to that. I'd say I'm right down the middle.

How anyone can tow the party line no matter what is a farkin' idiot.

I'm probably pretty close to commie..

I wish natural resources, transportation and utilities were all nationalized and owned by government instead of private corporations.

All the profits could then be put back into making our country better and we could all get any type of health care we needed as well as free university.

I wouldn't call it communism tho as under my political system there would be about 50 referendums a year so all major decisions could be decided by a popular vote.

Ya I'm an idealist...sue me.

When I was a student, my views were much more to the left. Then I entered the work force, saw more of the world, and my views swung to the right.

But as far as I can remember, I've always thought that what you've stated should be what our country should be doing. Everyone in this country owns the resources of this country, and we should all benefit from them. They are not something that an individual put time and effort into creating; instead, they just "existed", and should be shared equally.

this is a natural thing for 90% of the population (not to go right all the way but to be less left)

i was a huge rage fan in the 90's, considered myself a commie (hadn't yet seen the poison that is working for a union)

and i thought likely many of the things that bukkake thought. why is it fair that so many people have it so hard and the few that have it good have it so good?

why is it fair that companies make billions of dollars while some moms can't feed their kids?

the answer must be re-distribution of wealth, right?

but then i thought through it, and my thinking changed/matured (NOT saying being left is immature but for ME i couldn't hang onto the ideal) i realized that "fair" is a bullshit word that exists on the same plane as a christian god or the easter bunny. i realized that although not "fair" to have so many people having it so rough, you couldn't just divide everything amongst people or there would be no reason for people to excel if people who sat at home were just as well off

i realized that the government is HORRIBLE at business and projects the government did/does took twice as long as if private companies did it and cost twice as much. i realized if there is no greedy owner/CEO shitting on people the bottom line will never be profit/success

so yeah, i kept my beliefs that ALL drugs should be legal. i kept my support of legal demonstrations, i kept my support that adults should be able to fuck/marry/hang out with any consenting adults they choose to, and i kept my dislike of american foreign politics and canada acting like an american puppet. alot of the other shit flew out the window
