The Garage...A building millions of people would love to have as a dwelling. Nothing to do with rent. The point I was trying to make was, we could and should feed ,clothe,educate,house and provide healthcare for the entire planet...

The we you referred to.. "Do we give people houses" houses are not tool or skills they are property..whose property is it to give.

You use the words equal and equates as though the world was an equal place.

There has never been more inequality in the world than right now.

That is why we hear so much about the 99% and the 1%

Just an afterthought...why don't the 1% elite pass on their skills/tools and insider knowledge to the 99% and then we can all be rich?

"Left" and "Right" originate from popular partisan terms in British Parliament.


Wait... are you tarnishing this perfectly good bit of inflammatory nonsense with facts ?



Sorry! I hang my head in shame. grumble :wink: laugh laugh

"we" should support the expansion of freedom and liberty and give people the chance to do those things for themselves.

slaves were given food, clothing, housing, education..

How was that working out for them?

You are advocating for the exact things you are saying you are against..

Nothing given to you is FREE..

Isn't that what the hippies were advocating half a century ago?

I often wondered why it is that Conservatives are called right and Liberals are called left.

By chance I stumbled across this verse in the Bible.

"The heart of the wise inclines to the right, but the heart of the fool to the left.

Ecclesiastes 10:2 (NIV)

Thus sayeth the lord...Amen

Can't get any simpler than that.
funny how foolish was it for Rep.Governor Haley Barbour to pardon 8 convicted murderers?So i guess your statement and the bible have 1 thing in common,they both are lies.
