Your point?

"If you consider yourself a liberal, YOU need to take a close look at how thoroughly yesterday's liberalism has been bastardized into communism."

And hence my first message. Liberalism has been bastardised into communism?
So liberalism is now a classless, stateless social order based on common ownership of the means of production?

It states, more or less, that communism is masquerading as liberalism.

About your signature:
Communism is a classless, stateless social order based on common ownership of the means of production.
Liberalism is a class-society based on private ownership of the means of production, and a government whose tasks are limited to protecting civil liberties and creating equality of opportunity.
Yes, that's totally the same thing!

Saw your post in the thread "The rich SHOULD pay a higher tax rate" -- just FYI the 106.8k cap on earned income is only for the SS portion of FICA. SS is the big piece of FICA, but the other taxes in FICA (medicare most significantly) aren't capped.

Great posts today!! My compliments to you.

Dan...you and I are seemingly closely aligned, politically...uncannily so...and, I just wanted to drop by and tell you that I enjoy your posts.

I LOVE your sig !!!!!!!!!

hey dan, listen. When two sides argue what is done? It's time something is done. I suggest, why don't you teach me? I know really know nothing on how to talk to people, online or offline. I'm a liberal at heart, but I see conservative needs. But, neither side is going to get anything done until we work together. What do you say?

Hey Dan I dig your responses to Kessy in the Obama thread. Especially when you said to her that you wish the Obama administration should stay out of the free market. I agree. He is a bane to our system of government.
