The Single Biggest Weakness of the Constitution:

[CowboyTed]

When you say communist you say you are a brainwashed functional GOP moron... Nobody is for communism.

He at least respects Obama... He thinks Trump is a child...

 

[Freiheit]

"Stupid is as stupid does" Forests' mom was certainly right about you. You are too stupid to even talk to.

So no argument just stupid talking points and insults. Very impressive

Here read the article on socialism in Wikipedia and you'll find it agrees with me as do everything outside your bubble of BS propaganda, dumbass.
Socialism - Wikipedia on

Socialism killed 120 million and yet Sanders tells us we ought to be socialist? German parents had the brains to stop naming their children Adolf after WW2 so why doesn't Sanders have the brains to stop calling himself a socialist?

capitalism let's people die every day, simply because they have no capital.

Well many right wing economists says there is no conscience in capitalism , nor should there be.

What is a conscience other than the perception of what is "good"? "Good" to one may be "bad" to another. Who is the arbiter of what is universally good? "Good" to a capitalist may be anathema to a socialist. "Good" to a communist may be "evil" to a religionist.

Conscience is about right vs wrong.
Capitalism is about self interest.
Socialism is about interest of everybody.
The capitalist need remember he/she needs other people around to be happy.
The socialist needs to remember people are incentivized by the opportunity to improve ones own conditions.
Greed is the opposite of apathy; both extremes are harmful.

The Single Biggest Weakness of the Constitution:

It's actually conflict of interest for the poor to be voting since they are merely voting for money (democracy as theft) in their pockets rather than for the commonweal. This points to what turns out to be the biggest weakness of the Constitution. It has no conceptual arguments. It should say, for example, you have to be 35 years old to be president and to vote to insure you have enough wisdom and experience. Similarly, the 10th Amendment should clearly say liberal central govt is illegal in America because monopolistic liberal central govt has been the source of evil in human history. Without conceptual arguments the Constitution has little meaning.Liberals can turn it into a living communist Constitution. If the concept of the 10th Amendment had been as clear as the percept of the Second Amendment America would be sitting pretty today instead of staring down the barrel of Sanders, Warren, Waters, Booker, Ocasio-Cortez communist gun.

As Ben Franklin aptly said, the Constitution will be as good as the moral fiber of the society which tries to uphold it. Then once that moral fiber is gone, the Constitution will go accordingly.

And we have seen this over the years with such things as FDR locking up innocent Japanese Americans, something no one questions as being unconstitutional, yet no one stopped it.

Once the nation became a nation of men and not laws, then the laws really don't matter anymore.

We have a Constitution for a reason.

The single weakness of the Constitution is the childlike presumption that men are going to obey the laws that they profess to adhere to, and want everyone else to knuckle under to.

Didn't take but until the Whiskey Rebellion -didn't even make it through one prez- before that rag got disregarded.

Thank God for the Constitution, protects us from fake Patriots like most GOP voters...

You worship the duopoly who shits on the constitution daily.
Take your welfare check and go buy some awareness, dumbfuck.

 

[Marion Morrison]

The problem with The Constitution, is that it can't up and bitchsmack leftists when they try and say it says something completely opposite of what it does say. Therefore somebody needs to do it for The Constitution.

 

[danielpalos]

Our welfare clause is General not Common.

 

[jbander]

Thank you for the detailed response. Instead of increasing taxes, we should probably just cut spending, but governments are incapable of doing this. I guess my biggest question has always been why create universal government programs when targeted spending such as food stamps and medicaid have been effective? You must admit that government programs are more expensive and less efficient than if there was competition. Going back to the OP, I think it is fair for the bottom 40% to at least make a token contribution, get some skin in the game. Do you not find it odd that many who go to pay their taxes actually come out with a net profit? It can not be positive that people can vote like it is Christmas without a bill. Politicians pay for votes, and the ones who pay the most ALWAYS win. I'm not saying it is impossible to have a highly successful big government program, but it is pretty clear with our politicians that that is not likely.

No problem at all, I'll pick where to cut those programs. You hate our country you hate our government and you hate democracy. They are elected to decide these things. Much has to be changed but the system is doing what is paid to do, just to many haters right now but they are on the way out because of demographics .The browning of America will take care of much of our problems it will not vote for the group that has treated them like shit for decades/ just look in the mirror and say good bye.

We have a Congress; why do we have any problems in our Republic. They have the power to Tax.

We have a Congress....the very reason we have problems in our Republic. They misuse and abuse their power.

No joke, I could use some 'free' money too. I'd go to BK and blow the rest on hats.

 

[Markle]

Yup, why should me and my neighbors have to pay for people to keep a roof over their family and food on their table when the two adults are both working 40 hours and need food stamps to survive and other support to do that. So business can make more money, why is it my responsibility to have to pay for their golden profits.$15 an hour is a start but it always has to be enough to feed a family no matter what the wage level is. Who in the hell saves money at wall-mart if they have to pay for one of their workers to survive. That what the right want for this country , it's just another way to hand everything they can to the wealthy and big B

Why do you not believe in personal responsibility?

Well, good luck with that. When the democrats 'help' you, you are in real trouble. They destroy everything they touch with good intentions. Since policies don't care what color you are (only the media), I hope you resolve all your racial problems. I still think it is common sense that buying votes is a huge problem.

 

[Markle]

Did I hurt your feeling buddy. I don't give a flying fuck how much they pay in taxes ,Since 81 corporate profits were 200 billion , now they are up to 2 trillion a year and Since the trickle down bozo lie, nothing has gone to anyone except the few at the top , so their profit is up 10 times what it was in 81 , the golden few that the trickle down lie was written for got it all. Just this one year they received 1.8 trillion more then they earned in 81. But no one else got a thing. Maybe a good number for taxes with these people would be double or triple what they pay now. It wouldn't even dent the extra 1.8 trillion they received this year extra over what they got in 81. Tripling it wouldn't even make a dent. My point about needing to be rich to get the freedom that this country stands , you figure it out big guy.

Please show us your reliable source and link. Thank you.

 

[Markle]

I forget who said it, but some wise person pointed out that when the People realize that they can vote themselves money from the public trough, Democracy is doomed.

And they are doing just that when they vote for politicians who promise "free" medical care, "free" college, guaranteed annual wage, and things of that nature.

In my opinion, Voter's ID's should be passed out by the IRS, and if you haven't paid at least a thousand dollars in FIT, you don't get one. And that includes retired people......ESPECIALLY retired people (I am one of them).

What could be fairer than that?

Every citizen should be able to vote. Your sympathy for the greedy idiot rich GOP is touching, super duper dupe.

At what point does someone become an evil rich douche? What is the magic number? Let's say a teacher earns 30k. Is he or she evil and greedy? What if two teachers get married? 60k. Evil and Greedy? What about mechanics, construction workers, accountants? What is the magic evil, greedy, douche threshold? I'm guessing it is anyone who has a job.

Anyone have a clue on this tripe???

I should have said greedy idiot GOP rich, that's the difference. Democrat Rich are fine, they want to pay more in Taxes and invest in Americans and America for a change...

socialism isn't killing millions a day either.

See North Korea, Cuba, and Venezuela.
