In my opinion, you're an idiot if that's what you actually think.Conservatives want 100% pure unfettered capitalism because they don't actually grasp what capitalism actually is, not to mention the fact that most of them are closet authoritarians. Having "socialist" elements within a capitalistic system (as we have now) actually provides competition for capitalism itself, keeping it on its toes, fixing the parts that need fixing and improving the parts that need improvement. This should be something they would support. An example, the USPS being a "socialist" entity inspired entrepreneurs to start FedEx and UPS because they felt they could do a better job. Of course the USPS still exists because it works, we are still benefiting from FedEx/UPS.
I've noticed that a lot of right wingers (more so libertarians) hate, HATE any element within our society that helps each other. They would much prefer living in a society full of selfish assholes who never, EVER help anyone, everyone fends for themselves in all situations, if someone's house catches on fire -- they have to put it out themselves, they want a society with people who go after criminals themselves, they want all libraries to be closed permanently, they want the government to do absolutely nothing, etc. They want hell on Earth.
Please show us the source and link that says, and I'll quote you: "Conservatives want 100% pure unfettered capitalism because they don't actually grasp what capitalism actually is, not to mention the fact that most of them are closet authoritarians."
If you cannot, you are lying and the rest of your post is likewise...worthless.
Source: usmessageboard.com, Fox News, Right Wing Hate Radio, Conservatives across the country, etc. Happy?
Yes, I'm happy, YOU FAILED TO DO SO. Which means you lied.
Lied about what? My opinion? How can someone lie about their own opinions? I realize conservatives often confuse truth with opinion, so maybe that's why you're so confuzzled. It's confusing stuff, isn't it?
