There are some good things in this and some clearly silly thing, don't dismiss ideas just because they come from a section of politics you disagree with, there have been on occasion some Conservative and Liberal ideas that I have got behind, because they were good ideas, it doesn't mean I've suddenly turned to the Dark Side :-)


Frankly I dont care what you think, as you are not an American citizen and have no say in the matter anyways.

I do appreciate your input though, thats why I responded and answered some of your questions, hopefully that helps clear up any confusion.

The Socialist Party's wants don't look to be much different than the Democratic Party's, maybe just taken to the Nth degree. Clearly they are just brothers from different mothers. Very scary!

Not much of a leap from Liberalism to Socialism.

Huh...sign me up?

My favorite as got to be :

Financial penalties to be imposed on private companies for toxic spills and waste"
Really, how can you be against this, are you mad?
Who's gonna pay for the problems those companies caused? PUBLIC FUNDING?
Why is THIS suddenly OK to use public funding in your vision of reality?

Believe me or not, capitalism isn't the way to pave humanity a road towards evolution, space traveling and immortality. If you remove the fear and usual consequence of total domination of abusive power and greed by the leaders, communism is actually a very efficient economic system.

Nothing is ever only dark or only light.

I have questions for the ATS community about this.

After seeing this, are you ok with the way the teachers unions have infiltrated our education system?
Are we going to continue to send our kids off to school hoping everythings gonna be ok?
Are we still cool with the LGBTQ gay marriage agenda?
Are there alot of these things on this site that drive us mad every day that we are going to just put up or shut up and keep living our lives like it doesnt bother us?

Theres way many more questions I have for all of you. But that would take pages and pages of stuff.

Also, sorry gay people, dont mean to pick on you.

I don't see a problem with teachers unions. In most systems teachers are underpaid, and have to deal with terrible parents calling to complain about their kid's poor grades at 8:00 at night, etc., crazed administrators... The list goes on. All for about the same pay as the mailman.

If we're not "cool" the the gay marriage agenda, then we should leave the U.S., and go to a nation who supports social control by the government to fit a particular group's agenda. Saudi Arabia and Iran come to mind as possible destinations for people with such anti-American thinking. How anyone who wants the government to decide how people live their lives dares to call themselvves "conservative" is beyond my comprehension (or maybe they're just thoroughly confused about the idea of keeping the government out of people's personal lives being a key part of being Conservative.

To the OP, I'm not sure I understand the premise of your thread. Are you saying because ofba post you made on ATS they changed their website? There seems to be some information missing, which seems to be why this thread is nothing more than a discussion of Socialism as opposed to how the socialist party website was changed because you were getting on their nerves.

Let's see what you've found....

Subjects include, sex ed young children including an education on LGBTQ.

I have no problem with this. In a perfect world, parents would be smart enough to teach their kids not to hate other people for frivolous reasons like the person's sexual orientation or gender identity. Unfortunately lots of parents are window-licking retards, and still think these are suitable grounds for hating/discriminating against people. So it falls to the rest of society to pick up their slack, sadly.

Free birth control for all at the cost of tax payers.

This is fine. I mean, what do you want? More humans on my planet? I don't.

Labor Unions for prisoners.

Here I'm with you. This is a ridiculous idea.

Destruction of Capitalism and the Constitutional Republic of the United States

I'm going to need details.

Exploitation and special privileges for minoritys

Specifics, please. What do minorities get that you're not allowed to have, in particular?

Exploitation and special privileges for women and children

See above.

Mandatory allowances for children

If true, yes this is crap.

Abolition of Parental consent

Consent for what?

Lowering the voting age to 15

I doubt any serious political party would suggest this.

An unrealistic demand to abolish racism, sexism and homophobia

Okay.

Increased Section 8 housing

Yeah this is awful. We should just let all the homeless people die of exposure. That'll fix the problem.

Control of all rental units

New York seems to be doing okay.

End of foreclosures

Details, please.

Community based housing

As opposed to hermit-based housing? What the living # are you on about?

A national Rail system

How is this a problem? Lincoln didn't seem to be opposed, seeing as how his administration build a national rail system.

End of Interstate system

Please prove this one.

Federally funded car insurance

I'd be okay with this.

Public ownership of airline industry

I'd be okay with this, too. At least let me vote for the bastards who keep losing my luggage.

Full residency for Illegals living here for over 6 months

Residency != citizenship. News flash: They're already residing here.

Rights for prisoners to vote

Depends on the crime, I'd say.

Greater access to all media

Is this bad? The more information you have access to, the less likely you are to end up being an ignorant Teabilly hick. Sounds like a win-win, to me.

Limits on election donations

This is fine with me. Let the corporations have as much say in every election as any anyone else.

Public Financing for political candidates

We already have this, but yeah I'm fine with it.

Free access to attorneys

Aside from a spike in the number of scumsucking lawyers, this won't produce anything bad.

Closures of supermax prisons

Totally evil. Why shouldn't we have enormous prisons full of pissed off people crammed like sardines into spaces meant for half as many of them? Yeah the way we run things now is probably fine. Let's just go back to sleep, nothing could possibly go wrong.

Abolishment of the death penalty

Iran and the rest of the 3rd world completely agree with you on this.

Destruction of media outlets

Wait. If we destroy all the media, how will people have more access to it? I don't understand.

Government ownership of cable and satellite companies

As long as they don't own the content, this is fine. I don't care which empty suit is in charge of shuffling the paperwork.

Public Funding for Newspapers and Magazines

Meh. You're kind of sounding like a broken record at this point.


Continued next post....

Oh, ok. So it's the government that knows best. Why do we even raise our children anymore? The government is so much better at it than parents are. We should just give our children to the government.

Also, if you did any research at all, you would know that Kevin Jennings' disciples taught kids as young as the 3rd grade about fisting. Don't you think that may be an irresponsible thing to do, given that kids are monkey-see, monkey-do?

Lastly, how is it that any and all sexual acts are now considered A-OK? The propaganda is telling us that anyway...
Is the argument that if the sexual deviation (notice I didn't say deviance) exists in nature, it's ok for us too?

"The Government" is of the people, by the people, and for the people. It isn't some alien parasite that floated down from outer space and rules without any responsibility. You do know what Democracy is, right? So in that the government is the People, yes it knows best. It's just an agency we have organized among ourselves to oversee our own society.

I don't agree with Kevin Jennings' approach -- although it should be noticed it included teenagers, not "3rd Graders." His philosophy of eliminating prejudice and bullying based on sexual orientation is completely commendable, though.

All consensual sex acts between adults are A-OK, yes. If nobody's getting hurt and nobody's a child, then just shut your puritanical mouth and live and let live. You are not allowed to dictate to anyone else who or what they are allowed to do in the privacy of their own lives. Nobody's making you do it, so it's none of your business.
