The day I vote for a socialist is the day I willingly invite the Devil himself into my own home.

....Hardly. The government by large is far too corrupt for it to ever be salvaged. It is only a matter of time until the whole shebang comes down, or an armed revolt by the populace, one of the two. Unless, of course, something Else happens before then instead.

(cont from last) One man isn't going to change anything. Remember Obama's promises? I don't see where he made good on much of any of them. Fact is, he made some things Worse.

@azumarill64 Who the hell is paying for that college?

That's the biggest issue with socialism: it's all fun and games until you run out of other people's money. Let's also not forget that the people using that free college didn't necessarily earn it, and that Bernie would for the most part continue the destructive policies of Obama that got us into this mess in the first place.

@Xylia Of course one man can't change everything; it would take several good presidents and a cooperative congress with just as good goals to undo everything that's happened in the past 8 years.

I can see this spiraling out of control. I think I'm done.

That is, unfortunately, the problem with discussing political subjects -- everybody is angry, nobody likes the government, everybody wants to change it, but... the people IN the government do not want it to change because they lead nice extravagant lives. (cont)

There are some who want to get in there and clean things up, but they are met with HEAVY opposition because the incumbents want to keep the status quo, because they like it. Why should they care the 99% are unhappy? They're the 1% and they are Quite happy and they don't want us getting any of our money "undeserved".

I do agree with your post three up with one note: not everybody hates the government. I'm sure most people on welfare who literally live off of the government want more government.
