Total government control is looming

Dale, of course our current government's actions aren't defined as capitalistic or constitutional by the intellectually honest. However, they ARE defined as "payback" by the common Dem voter. The wealth envy club has been successfully promoted and used in this past election and is now controlling the mind set of the left wing voters. Intellectual honesty has nothing to do with it. This is just another example of the "no common ground for compromise" that exists between the two major political perspectives. (socialist and conservative) Three other concepts that fall into the "no common ground" category are individualism, responsibility and accountability.

Class warfare is code words for the ignorant. This LTE is oozing with right-wing propaganda i.e. "government control, socialism, higher-income earners, elitism, class envy, wealth redistribution" heard throughout the airwaves daily but only believed by a smaller & smaller group of citizens and here is why: Government exist to establish/maintain order, protect and provide humane services to its citizens, which is paid for with tax dollars. Of course the rich pays more, because they have more, but its designed to "promote the general welfare" of the ENTIRE country. In many circles, (including worldwide) Capitalism is being exposed and the majority of American citizens don't support the "rich" being unregulated to take advantage of poorer citizens. Which IS a government function. "Government intrusion" is smoke-free zones, seatbelt laws, restrictions on firearms, abortions, etc, which a majority of citizens support, but to say the USA is "Total Government Control" is an exaggeration to incite fear not reality. The fear comes from the rejection of Republican lawmakers & their ideology & approach to government and until (R) understand that fact, the party will survive only in the south.

Justus, what country do you live in? The constitution of the US defines what the government is supposed to do. "HUMANE SERVICES" is not in the constitution. When government wants to set salaries, tell businesses what to produce, regulate the finnancial markets, can seize private property and decide what is "best" for the citizens you have approaching total control! When the wealthy leave with thier busineses you will have Zimbabwe under Mugaby.

"Class warfare is code words for the ignorant." Oh man, my IRONy deficiency has been rectified.

Yes, justus, you describe total government control as the function of government. "No common ground". Why are facts codewords?

Help these scared white people please Lord.

Yes, fruit, your attitude is EXACTLY what we've all said it was..." ...you wouldn't understand". Skin color over country.

And thank you for SAVING patriciathomas, he is a new creature I claim it in Jesus name. I am yet believing God is going to save your soul patriciathomas. Great is the Lord.

From your mouth to God's ear, fruit? I think you overestimate yourself. Maybe you should be concerned with your stye before you worry about anothers mote.

Come on people, leave the blind and deaf sheeple alone. They will only realize what our wonderful, spendaholic government is doing, has done to our wonderful country when the actions of said government personally bites them in the rear, which is inevitable.

I yet believe God is going to SAVE you patriciathomas, you can run, but you can't hide, no matter what. The grace of God is sufficient even for you. You are SAVED in Jesus name, as well as your household.

Do you think God will do anything about your mental problem, fruit? Maybe you should be concerned with your stye before you worry about anothers mote.

I think God is touching your heart patriciathomas, I think God in time is going to move mightily in your life. I've been redeemed and washed in the Blood of the Lamb and before long you will be my brother in Christ.

If people like Justus4 would take the time to read the history behind the writers of our constitution, he would understand what this country was founded upon. The idea of this nation is based on the fact that everyone deserves the freedoms granted to us by our creator.For the atheist, we are born with individual freedoms of choice. Our founder's philosophy was that the Government shall not infringe on these freedoms. The government is not responsible for our well being, We the people are to make our individual choices to determine our well being. Please read the declaration of independence!

While God is washing you, fruit, could you get him to give that brain an extra rinse? Maybe then you would have a cognitive (look it up) thought that's on subject.

Jackfruit, I would suggest you read the Bible, and you would find that redistribution of wealth is not a biblical principle.

I'm fervently praying for you patriciathomas, have been and will continue, you are SAVED and washed in the Blood of the Lamb. God will reign in and over your life. You can push against the prick but for so long.

Who's talking about that Milton not me, I'm talking about something far more greater, God saving patriciathomas and his household.

fruit, come back on subject, come back. You can do it. Try to concentrate on the subject of conversation. Look in a mirror and say, concentrate, concentrate. I think you can find the religious conversation on another site. That's a good boy.

"Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free. The wretched refuse of your teeming shore. Send these, the homeless, tempest-tossed to me. I lift my lamp beside the golden door". Just lip service to most of you? I guess we know who does not " Leave the lights on".

colcamp1, don't wanna be increasing our carbon footprint anymore, leavin' that lamp burnin'. lolz.

See God is penetrating already, patriciathomas know this, somebody is praying for you and standing in the gap on your behalf before the Lord. Know that somebody is believing God has already saved, deliver and set you free in Jesus name. You can say what you want, mock even, but you can't run or hide from God, you are SAVED in Jesus name.

colcamp, giving a person the opportunity is not the same as carrying a person. "Leaving the light on" seems to mean different things to different people.

fruit, take your meds, you're rambling. Call a friend and ask them what the conversation is. That's a good boy.

Justus is big into "code words". Those who don't recognize Obama is using the Marxist ploy of class warfare are unbelievably jaded and ignorant. I am not saying he is a marxist but his strategy is text book definition.

Colcamp read the parable of the talents! Also, this nation is founded on individual freedoms if people do not want to help the poor then that is their individual choice granted by our Creator The government is not to infringe on our individual choices, as our Creator does not infringe on individual choices. I don't expect the ignorant to understand what the founders of this nation were proclaiming.

Looks over at patriciathomas and whispers Jesus, Jesus, Jesus.

JUSTUS, the Kremlin just called to congratulate you on your post. You had just the right amount of venom and ignorance in it. You didn't mention the "non-minority" media for a change. Thanks for that. The only thing you didn't include was "From each according to their ability, to each according to their need." Do you know where that quote is from?

You know I'm sure numerous races post comments here but you can't tell if they are hispanic, asian, or caucasian, BUT every black poster is blatantly obvious and each makes sure everyone knows. I find that very psychologically revealing.

Jackfruit this is exactly why our founding fathers did not mention anyone but the Creator. Even our founding fathers had different religious views. Please read the Declaration of Independence, and the Constitution. We The People are not to be controlled by the government, but the government is to be controlled by the people. To create a bigger government and excessive taxation is the very reason why we separated from England.
