The Great Experiment

OK, a couple folks have mentioned lately that all we do is fight and name call here, so I want to try something. In this thread, you can not call people (or groups) names, cuss, or be mean in general. You can disagree, but only if you do it politely and with respect for the other persons opinion. We are all Americans, and I think we can do this. Seriously guys, let's give it a try. Who's first? Oh, and if someone does say something mean and nasty, they will be forever labeled a dooty head.

I noticed I was becoming as much of an evil tempered bastard as anyone.

Life's too short.

I was born this way. And no thread posted by TD will ever change that.
The good Lord made me a sarcastic bastard. If you take issue with that, go talk to him.

D-Ray, you might be the person to ask for obvious reasons. What will become of union heath care after Obama's plan is fully implemented? Will they still take the 8 bucks out of my check, or will they put it back on my check and let me buy my own insurance? I haven't been able to get an answer from any of my union bosses.

and more to the point. You mentioned the U.S. moving toward Canada and Europe with the "huge Gov't and no responsibility" of those countries. I stated and asked>

"we already have huge gov't and no responsibility (really ramped up about 30 years or so ago) and places like Canada, Europe and some Asian countries have left us in the dust with like to education, healthcare......"

I'd like to hear your rational, non partisan thoughts on why this is?
