33 Uncomfortable Questions for Progressives (aka Leftists)


2. Because you can't use the same ID for both. That's why. In any case, you have to register for the vote and THEN show a special type of ID.


what SPECIAL ID Sallow?....i used my Drivers License....what is so special about that?...

How did they manage to vote in the 18th, or 19th centuries?

who the fuck cares?.....was Sallow referring to then or now?...i believe he was talking about today....now that is an interesting question though....why dont you start a thread on it?.....it was probably stricter than today i bet....

I was referring to now.

Plenty of people don't have or even need Driver's licenses. They are also expensive to get. Not just in money, but in time.

I personally think you should be able to vote on the net.
 
3. Why is it right for people who produce nothing to dictate the fortunes of those who work for a living?

Ahh is this the one where they pretend to forget that the majority of people on welfare also work?

Must be...
 
Things that make you go :eusa_eh:.

1. Why is it fine that Americans need to prove to the IRS that they have health insurance, but it’s wrong to ask immigrants if they are in the country legally?

2. Why is it okay if a welfare state office asks people for ID before giving them a check, but it’s “racist” to ask people to show IDs before voting for politicians who send out those checks?

3. Why is it right for people who produce nothing to dictate the fortunes of those who work for a living?

4. Is it wrong for someone who puts no effort into life to make a living off of those who have to work hard?

5. Why do people have to pay the state for their very right to live? (In other words, why are there “income” taxes, when there used to be taxes only on profits?)

6. If all cultures are equal, should all Americans value the abuse of women in many Muslim cultures, the abuse of workers in China, or the ill-treatment of gays in Russia?

7. If the only thing that a nation needed for the people to be happy was for the government to spend money and to buy its own debt, how come other countries around the globe didn’t figure that out earlier?

8. Is the way to alleviate poverty to get more people doing productive jobs, or to take more money from people who are already working who can create jobs?

9. Does it help or harm an economy to create unproductive jobs?

10. If the “war on poverty” continues for decades with no improvement, is throwing more money at the problem still the solution?

11. If the almost $3.3 trillion in debt accumulated under Bush was “irresponsible” and “unpatriotic,” is Obama responsible and patriotic for adding $6 trillion?

12. Can a nation be fundamentally racist when there the president is black and the American people watch sports, movies and TV shows featuring blacks?

13. Maybe the reason for poverty in inner cities is not because of capitalism but because of the lack of free market enterprise?

14. Why does the U.S. have a Department of Homeland Security that spies on American websites, but lets millions of illegal immigrants overstay their visas and cross the borders?

15. Why does the NSA illegally spy on millions of Americans, but can’t alert authorities of imminent terrorist attacks like the Boston bombing, even when the government is warned about the suspects?

16. Why are we creating a massive surveillance state to protect us from “terrorism,” when the Obama administration won’t even call the mass murder of U.S. soldiers at Ft. Hood by a confessed jihadist “terrorism”?

17. Maybe the nations worldwide that were poor before the U.S. existed and are still poor suffer because they don’t have economic freedom, and not because America is exploiting them?

18. Perhaps the reason the U.S. has been relatively wealthy is because it has been the most innovative, productive and adventurous nation in history, and not because it stole big screen TVs, computers, Internet wi-fi and smartphones from people?

19. Has the U.S. military liberated millions from tyranny and oppression or is it imposing tyranny and oppression on foreign peoples?

20. How much government debt is too much? Can the government accrue tens of trillions in future debt without negative consequences for people?

21. Do people generally have the right to determine the outcomes of their own lives? Or do Washington politicians and bureaucrats (i.e. other people) have the right to determine them?

22. Why are millionaire corporate CEOs railed against, but millionaire Hollywood actors and pop singers are praised and idolized?

23. Why is the GOP the “party of the rich” when there are just as many rich Democrat politicians as Republicans, and the wealthiest counties in the nation tend to vote Democratic?

24. Why is it that some of the biggest corporations in the nation (Microsoft, GE, Google) donate the majority of their political campaign contributions to the Democrat Party?

25. Why do the largest corporate media outlets in the nation support a political party that has continuously railed against corporations?

26. Why is it that a president who has praised wealth redistribution has seen through an economy where, as he admitted, 95% of the gains have gone to the top 1%?

27. Why Is Washington D.C. all of a sudden one of the richest areas in the nation? What valuable goods and services does that region produce?

28. Can power that accrues in a centralized government be used for evil as well as good? What does history say about this topic?

29. Is it really “progressive” to return to a state of affairs that America was founded to protect people against?

30. How come all of the “compassionate” programs of Democrat-dominated cities across the nation seem to lead only to worsening poverty, drug use and crime?

31. If democracy means “rule of the people,” why does the “Democratic Party” keep giving power to 536 individuals to decide the health, education, energy, transportation, retirement, employment, and income choices for hundreds of millions of people?

32. If Obamacare is so great, how come Congressmen who passed the bill want no part of it? (Even though they make at least $174,000 a year, most are taking federal subsidies to pay for their insurance plans.)

33. Maybe the reason the U.S. is in a bad spot is because many people don’t think through the logical consequences of their political positions?

Ooohhh..goody a quiz.

One that she doesn't want answered either..

:lol:

1. First off, the IRS is under a "Don't Ask/Don't Tell" rule about the ACA.then how are fines handed out Second, this is a non-sequitur as one thing has nothing to do with the other. of course not :cuckoo:Third? It's the height of stupidity to foster an underground economy in this country where you have over a million people living under the radar, not paying taxes, using services and not reporting crimes. so we don't enforce the law and allow this to flourish in sanctuary cities?

2. Because you can't use the same ID for both. well that's a lie. a picture id is a picture id That's why. In any case, you have to register for the vote and THEN show a special type of ID. And it's not free. As in a poll tax. Which is un-constitutional.

3. Depends on what you mean by "producing nothing". And most of the people who "made" their fortunes, did so by luck (Being born into right families) and questionable and possibly illegal means. LIke the Kennedys They also did so by utilizing government services we all pay for and the backs of others.

4. Depends again what your benchmarks for "hard work" and "doing nothing" are.. When I moved furniture I did harder physical labor than I do now that I work in Information Technology. I make far more now. I've seen cleaning people do harder physical labor than a CEO in a fortune 500 company yet they'll make far less. And CEO's sometimes wind up costing the company in very real money when they screw up..with no consequences. Take Jamie Dimon. Lost 9 Billion dollars at JP Morgan. He made 23 million dollars in 2012. That was so stewpud I couldn't read all of it

5. Think of it as "rent". or prison time

6. Because Muslim Countries, China and Russia are not a part of the United States. And there is protest in this country of those behaviors..otherwise you wouldn't know about it. then why do you want to be like some of these countries?

7. Who says that's going to make people happy? The right wing? Having some debt is actually healthy. It allows a country to build infrastructure, employ people and get things done. It's also good for banks and financial institutions. this is historically wrong, showing that liberals never learn

8. As both the Reagan administration and the Bush administration proved, cutting taxes on wealthy people doesn't create jobs. They didn't get wealthy through altruism. If anything it reduces jobs, because they use their wealth to buy off politicians that allow them to merge companies and off shore employment. good lord, you are totally trained. end reading of your non-sense.

9. It helps the economy vastly to create jobs like fireman, police and other needful positions. Building infrastructure is also a great way to stimulate the economy and keep it going.

10. The "War on Poverty" has been a huge success in the country. FDR's new deal created a Middle Class where there was none before. The biggest set backs were when Conservatives put their policies into practice like during the Reagan administration and the Bush administration. Real income has been flatlining for the middle class while growing wildly for the 1%.

11. To answer this question we have to start with the Truth. Most of the debt Obama is paying, was accumulated during the Bush administration with 2 wars. He put the that debt on a separate track called Emergency Supplemental Spending. Obama put that spending back in the general budget and began to pay it down. Additionally Bush started the Department of Homeland Security and the Medicare drug benefit.

12. Of course. And it's been showing it's racism and some profound and rather embarrassing ways. The first black President was made to show his birth Certificate. Both things are a first. And that's just the tip of the ice berg.

13. When did the Free Market end?

14. Homeland security was set up by the Bush administration. This might have been an appropriate question for the right wingers.

15. The bombers were Chechen and the warnings came from Russia who have a huge problem with these people. They warn about all Chechens, who have never shown any hostility toward America and in fact apologized for the bombings they had nothing to do with.

16. The shooter at Fort Hood has been sentenced to death. Is the concern here about semantics or how these events are prosecuted?

17. It's a little of both.

18. If this were a question then it could be answered. It's not.

19. Both. Depends on what nation you are talking about.

20. Perhaps you should go into the real negative impact the debt has had. Thus far all the consequences this nation has suffered has been from the private sector.

21. People have the right to determine their own outcomes. Washington should be there to provide the means to get the best outcomes.

22. Actors and singers rarely if ever bring the lives of millions of people, economic ruin.

23. You answered your own question. Republicans concentrate the wealth, Democrats spread it.

24. See 23.

25. See 23.

26. In a nutshell? Obama had to save those people to save the economy.

27. Most of the people that serve in Congress are millionaires. Is that so hard to understand?

28. History shows both.

29. Since it's not really doing that..this question makes no sense. America fought against a Monarchy.

30. The Economy began to take a "nose dive" under Nixon. Carter undid Nixon's crap and Reagan went ahead and really fucked things up. It's been a dog fight ever since.

31. Because it's in the Constitution. We aren't a direct Democracy. But a Republican one.

32. Part of Obamacare allows you to keep the healthcare you already have.

33. Absolutely. Ronald Reagan and George W. Bush's political decisions have had adverse effects that are still with us today.


There..all answered.

:lol:

blue added by me

Believe me..you didn't add much..

:lol:
 
Inheritance was already taxed when it was earned. If it was invested, it was already taxed twice. Now you want to tax the same money a third time.

Every time money changes hands it is subject to a tax

Actually in free countries, only economic transactions are taxed. That people can't give money they earned to someone else is a plank of the Communist manifesto and practiced only in socialist countries where all wealth is actually owned by the government.

Taxes aren't communist.

The absence of Taxation generally indicates a communist country.
 


That's a darned good question. Why is it the Paris Hiltons and other rich assholes who control half the wealth and produce very little personally, dictate the fortunes of the rest of us? Why is it that a few rich assholes at AIG and the Blackstone Group could crash the economy, put all of us out of jobs, sink the equity in our houses, and then STILL demand that we taxpayers bail them out?

Oh, wait. I don't think that was what you were going for, was it?

When was the last time Mitt Romney had a job or produced anything? Yet he was the GOP nominee for President.

Scoreboard.

I believe his last private sector job was concluded in 2002 when he headed 2002 Salt Lake City Olympic Games Organizing Committee, and before that he was CEO of Bain Capital. I know your leftist controllers have programmed you to hate and vilify Bain Capital, but CEO thereof is still an actual job. And since he brought it from near-bankruptcy to industry pre-eminence, I think anyone but a kneejerk leftist follower would consider that "producing something".

Now then, when has John Kerry EVER had any job outside of politics other than as a poodle to rich women? And yet this gigolo was the Democrat nominee for President, and is now our Secretary of State.

Score THAT, Sparkles . . . you know, if you ever butch up enough to actually enter the debate, instead of sitting on the sidelines, sniping safely with your compatriots.

Wealth Envy :lol: But only this time tho. I guess there goes the whole "rich people are rich because they are good" meme.

John Kerry was an officer in the US Navy and fought in the Vietnam war.

A war which Mitt Romney supported, protested for and then went to France to kill his passenger in the car he was driving.
 
Heres a question for you, Mamooth:

Debate honesty, and you'll get honest answers. You won't debate honestly, hence you get justifiably mocked. Understand that I don't care if that hurts your tender feewings.

When will you ever grow up? You've found yourself on the business end of a beating in a debate. And you can't refrain from name calling. You don't get honesty because you aren't honest yourself.

Only dishonest cowards use avalanche-o'-crap tactics.

You support such BS. 'Nuff said. If you could debate a liberal honestly, you would. You (and the OP) can't, so instead you ignore what we say, in favor of just telling the dirty liberals what we really think. Bravo! <Golf clap>

She proved my point; Romney hadn't worked for 10 years and the only reason he was moderately successful is because he was born on 3rd base but was convinced he had hit a triple. So by definition, he produced nothing.

Scoreboard.

As opposed to the left's meme: "Rich people are bad -- except for George Soros and the Democratic Party leadership. They're good and righteous and holy."
 
How did they manage to vote in the 18th, or 19th centuries?

who the fuck cares?.....was Sallow referring to then or now?...i believe he was talking about today....now that is an interesting question though....why dont you start a thread on it?.....it was probably stricter than today i bet....

I was referring to now.

Plenty of people don't have or even need Driver's licenses. They are also expensive to get. Not just in money, but in time.

I personally think you should be able to vote on the net.

so how do those people do things that require an ID?.....just wondering.....
 
No, fucknut, you answered NONE of my questions.

Have you stopped beating puppies yet?

Answer the question, you gutless cringing wonder, you spineless oozing thing that tries to pass itself off as human, you pants-shitting cowardly evader of questions you.

Now, you could try asking honest questions -- one at at time -- and you'd get honest answers. But instead, you'll keep raging that nobody is willing to play your dishonest game, and keep dumping your avalanche of bullshit on everyone. And in response, we'll keep laughing at you. After all, you've made it clear you're far too chickenshit to debate honestly.

So, you've now earned yourself a spot in the "comic relief" roster. To change that, try being honest. Or throw another tantrum, for our amusement.

They're quite honest, and your inability to think that quickly also falls under the heading of "Not My Problem".

I've "earned" myself a place on your roster? And who, precisely, do you think YOU are? Gloryosky, a chickenshit liberal is trying to pretend he can't answer me because he doesn't take me seriously. I've never heard THAT dodge before. :eusa_hand:

Stop waving the white flag. I see it, already.
 
OP- It's called the law- or just total BS...

For example, W's debt was 5 billion, not 3, and Obama's debt is 90 per cent averting a full depression and helping the victims...but thanks for 4 years of mindless obstruction and bs fear mongering, hater dupes...
 

Because to Progressive Leftists, it's the INTENTION that counts, not the actual results of their meddling. When the results do not match up with the intention, they simply seek to meddle more. And if you point to the results or question the meddling, you're simply a racist or whatever ad hominem they care to throw at you. Emotionally-based reasoning, no logic.
