Unbelievable

I've just been told by certain people that just because my parents my bad planning, or were unable to fund me, that I shouldn't go to University if the government had to pay for my course (ergo someone is paying for me). Unbelievable! Apparently, to them this is a level playing field, that the mistakes of the parents should burden the child. I am really in awe at how selfish some people are out there.

Hehe, lemme take a wild stab at this: were they conservatives? They have no concept of level playing field. They think a flat tax is a level playing field, as if losing 37% (which is what it would have to be in the UK to maintain current public spending) of your 20k is just the same as losing 37% of your millions.

That statement is almost as unbelievable as us having a new thread. Well done Pooey, your hereby promoted to minister of propaganda. I mean truth. Ahem.


Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy, its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery.

What's get me is that they think that they have the moral high ground... how the feck?

Selfish is right on.


If you want the country to go to hell in a handbasket, then vote for the one who can drive you there blindfolded.

Seems like our new mod Protostar is very Right wing. One of his latest posts said
Quote:
Drastic times call for drastic measures, and these are indeed drastic times as far as the amount of debt this country has aquired. To help pay off this debt, certain programs need to have fund cuts or be abolished altogether. I feel that if you are so shortsighted as to not plan and prepare for your own retirement out of the belief that the government will AND SHOULD take care of you, you deserve whatever suffering you have coming to you. That mindset is ignorant and foolish. I too am forced to pay into SS but am already beginning to put funds away. Sure it may not be alot, but it's a start. My point is you should always have a plan B.
Wow, such compassion going on here.

He also said that hospitals are a business and that they should be able to turn away anyone they want...
Unbeliveable, how can there possibly be people who think like that out there?
