What a strange wingnut response. Somehow moral responsibility is "ridiculous, misguided, needs to be buried, and fallacious." Somebody's gears are all rusty and needs some lube. :( Luckily I've gotten used to your type. The first post set the condition: America bombed Afghanistan and promised...

Never have I seen a thread with a bunch of people so full of themselves... Finally a rational answer. The majority of abortions are not related to rape or incest, you can google any fact site you want they will all tell you the same thing. In such cases, I believe the woman should be allowed...

The problem is that we've all nearly forgotten these people (and therefore who is willingly going to donate to a forgotten cause?) after so closely building bonds and friendships (along with bombing away their country). :p The only way to live up to an old promise is to just do it, instead of...

:p Not a chance! I just wanted to see if punishment for broken promises would align with what Ron Paul stands for, but its overwhelmingly no for reasons already listed. Its sad, it only costs about $20,000 to put a brand new school fully furnished into a the hands of 5,000 very deserving...

Why are we always assuming the target of the Mumbai attacks were British and American citizens? Reports I saw showed that two US and one Brit confirmed dead among the near 200 Indians; and our prayers are with their families. Those numbers alone show that the target of the attacks could not have...

-- "I want NO bailouts.. because they are all theft...maybe you dont get it, the big picture...In a Constitutional sized Government.. it is a cold machine who does all the monatanous, boring, administrative stuff.. nothing big at all.. " My topic was about a real government, not the kind found...

So by our own logic of laissez-faire, we are not going to punish the US for this broken promise, so that it can repeat again and again? How is it that you can object to the $750 billion bailout plan then? Yet, agree that the US deserves a bailout when it cannot pay what it owes? Either way, no...

Hmm, I completely agree with the fundamental reasons for not sending over foreign aid to, for example, Afghanistan. I agree that it should not be done at the hand of governments, but I think my topic wasn't properly phrased. I'm not so interested as to how the money reaches the northern villages...

That is EXACTLY what the media wants you to think. When in all fact of the matter, the US is in no danger until it chooses a side in the conflict between Pakistan and India. The media loves feeding this unfounded terrorist shit to sheeple. When the question of "Why did this attack happen?" Has...

Excellent reply. This war between India has nothing to do with the US. They were fighting the Kashmire conflicts for a long time and blood from that struggle has never stopped dripping.

So we all know and agree on Dr. Paul's noninterventionist foreign policy and I think its great. I also agree with his trade policy in that we shouldn't grant special favor to any special group. But we all know this world is far from ideal, and even if Dr. Paul were to be elected into the White...

One question to your rebuttal. If rights were amended giving same-sex couples the right to be wed, would you sue your church for not performing a wedding for you and your same-sex partner? I dislike grouping individuals as much as anyone here, but unfortunately that's the system we live in...

I'm hesitant to post input cuz I didn't read the entire debated thread, but here's my opinion. Clearly, its a freedom of religion vs gay rights battle. The problem rests with the state not issuing marriage licenses to same sex couples. Which is understandable because only a church has the right...

@spudea --- "the government pushed mortgage companies to expand lending practicies." That's sort of an oxymoron isn't it? To force somebody to act more freely. --- "You state that free market can "sink hardcore". The periods of expansion and recession of the business cycle is caused by...

The main reason I included Brazil was because of the market reforms that were influenced from the Chilean "Chicago Boys" during the 70's and 80's under the dictatorship. No markets are in the world were ever free, and imo can never be free because of Milton Friedman himself stated so during an...
