Wait so the solution is perpetual population growth to fuel perpetual economical growth?

There might be a flaw or two in that plan.

Also not really following how socialism/central planning "takes money out of the economy". What happens to that money? Do they burn it? Doesn't it go back into the ...

Contraception being only one part of this whole discussion but I believe a very relevant one. America falling much into the same boat but we still have a higher replacement rate as well as high immigration levels.

I wasn't talking about the reasons why people have chosen to have less children ...

Much of Europe has too much Socialism. When more money is taken out of an economy it makes the people poorer. This is why we need to fight high taxes here. When individual citizen have less of their own money they then spend less and then businesses have less revenue, and pay people less or even go ...

I thought I should share this pic I took of a bunch of Union thugs this past Sunday. I had to turn around to get a picture of that sign. I am sure he is the only one who thinks that way. LOL!

What was the second wrong again?

(I'm being serious)

The 2 wrong drugs he took did not make it right?

... Portion of a letter sent to GOP reps in Wisconsin:

"We feel that you and the people that support the dictator have to die. If you and your goonies feel that it's necessary to strip the rights of 300,000 people and ruin their lives, making them unable to feed, clothe, and provide the ...

Your initial comment was "trying" to understand what occurred that put our state in this situation. (your 1-4 over generalized & uninformed statements) I clarified what illegal & unethical activities the previous Gov did for years to put us here but obviously you would ignore that.

Just curious, what exactly was the loophole which allowed them to pass the bill?

If anything, its possible issue will have the same affect on Democrats that health care did to Republicans. In Wisconsin and the surrounding states that is.

Still, its hard to believe this chain of events actually ...

What a surprise! Who would've thunk that he really was only trying to remove workers' rights, and had no real concern for the budget.

At first I thought Walker took away workers "rights" given to them by almighty God :-s Then I realized the privileges were given to them decades ago before they ...

Yes, I agree it's about time they passed this because Miller and the others would not consider any concessions offered over the last couple weeks and closed off negotiations on Monday. The state needs to get back to business and the era of gravy train ...

Your right, Clinton was pretty bad too. Sorry I left him out.

Walker....."WINNING!"

And, no democracy is not just something that happens on one day. People CONTINUE to have a voice, even after an election. And, as I stated before, being elected doesn't mean you are suddenly God, to decide whatever you wish. I fully realize that many politicians are under the mistaken impression ...

That was classic!!! I just got a call from aflcio taking a poll. (I asked him who he was with) They gave me their 1 minute lecture and then asked if they could "mark me down" that I agreed Government officials in Wisconsin needed to look out for the worker. What an over generalized question leading ...

it looks like $1 out of $5 campaign dollars for the missing 14 Dems comes from Public sector unions. For some of them it's over half. I am sure that has nothing to do with all this. It's all about workers "rights" even though they still would have more bargaining power than all federal employees ...

If the members really care so much about having their money spent like that, then they should reconsider their membership. If your job forces you to be part of a union, get a new job . Of course finding a job is easier said than done, but thats an argument made by conservatives for those pesky lazy ...

You will have to show me evidence of even a single school district that passes out condoms to 8 year olds. Here, not even high schoolers get them in school.

Your school district must not be "progressive" enough then but it sounds like they give you a 'real education" as opposed to those pesky ...

Define your view of "real education". I did not realize 8 year olds needed sex Ed to survive and be productive members of society. I sense your distain for my parental rights given to me by God to educate my own children.
Your comment shows how little you know of the education you criticize. And ...

It is interesting that these "rights" to collectively bargain do not exist for any of the federal employees under Obama who seems very passionate about these "rights". Also, about half of other states public employees don't have these "rights" either. Wisconsin's new law will still give more ...

Juan - your definition of right does not apply to any of the rights that I think we have in the US. For example, arguably we have the right to life, but that can be taken away by anyone including the government (whether directly or indirectly).

I think maybe what you mean is that a right is ...

It's not a "right" if it can be taken away. You guys are suffering from a lack of English-language education. What you guys call "rights" everyone else calls "privileges."
So while I'm forced to continue paying taxes, I have no right to the privilege that you guys say that I'm paying for... which ...

It's alright Phatscotty, it really does not matter what you say to them. They are all just so pissed that conservatives won many elections and are trying to deliver in what is supposed to be a representative republic. All their liberal hope and dream comments they were making after our immigrant ...

See, at the same time he is cutting unions (NOT expenses.. note the unions already agreed to the expense cuts!), he is also offering corporations a tax cut (according to several interviews I heard from the absentee legislators).

If he doesn't cut the unions now when people realize how luxury ...
