Happy May Day comrades!

Living wage eh? What do people do to EARN this wage?

No low wage in Britain? Ah I suppose you have 0 poor people then correct?

No cuts for what? If it's "anything" then what great amounts of fraud and waste you'll enjoy!

No privatization for what? Again if it's "anything" then you won't mind my squatting at your home...oh YOU won't have a home, the public would.

Re-nationalize mail & rail? Why so they can be a black hole for tax dollars?

Austerity is needed to avoid bigger issues

Ah the good old NHS...you guys ever buy private insurance or do you never have a reason to buy it like for example if you needed a drug/treatment not available/provided by the NHS?

Workers are necessary, but it's kind of pointless to be all "Up the workers" if you don't have a place of employment sooooo the guys signing the paychecks at the end of the work week are fairly important as well......IF you want to get paid

Yeah fuck all those private people that make all that money, it's not like their taxes pay for your NHS, mail & rail, living wage, fluff.



I'm on the side of the individual...I need no collective, I shall blaze my own trail thank you very much.



Hey I hear tell that Billy Bragg is down for the struggle....let's pop by his modest abode and...



.....so THAT guy is a socialist Ok well nevermind him let's see who would be down for the cause....um Tom Morello!!! He's always down for the struggle!!!


Ummm...ok well that's fairly big AND in LA, but he's TOTALLY down for the worker right?

....oh he's a rich asshole, well damn....ok, ummm let's try oooh MICHAEL MOORE, he's certainly going to be down for the struggle!
Opinion: The Height of Hypocrisy? Michael Moore Owns Nine Houses, Worth More than $50 Million | Watchdog Wire



....well fuck me he talks a big game but $50m & 9 houses....hopefully those houses are filled with refugees and workers on strike that Moore is feeding and taking care of because holy FUCK is he a hypocrite if he's just keeping that for himself.



But go on, you were saying "the workers"

[El Kabong]

Oh I forgot Russell Brand!





hiding behind a woman when he's caught dead to rights being a hypocrite....fucking cretin that dumb bastard. If he was on fire I wouldn't piss on him to put it out

Blaze your own trail on your own then as an individual. Stop hassling your fellow comrades.

Master let's say we were in the same class together. Let's assume that you're really awesome in school and you make straight A's. With those straight A's you can get into any university you please, and make straight A's there and go on and have any job, any profession you like ok?

Well if the schools you went to adjusted their academic policy to match the economic policies you love and cherish so much then you being the 1% of top grade earners would have to sacrifice your great grades for lower grades so that your entire class would be on the same level yes? And with that happening you go from straight A student to C student...being a C student limits your options for university. Being a C student at university limits your options for employment.

You worked for A's, you EARNED A's....yet you're telling me that you're going to be happy with C's because you've got solidarity with the useless fuckwits who sleep in class, don't study, don't try, don't assert themselves? You'll be happy providing them a safety net? You'll be happy when those same useless folks come to you with their hands out asking for more?

....in my version you could keep your straight A's open a business, give those formerly useless people jobs, set standards for those people to reach so that they may improve themselves and provide for their families thereby giving them a since of ownership in their own lives....but nah man, solidarity, so many people have been lifted up by the soft bigotry of low expectations.

[Master]

You really have a warped view of socialism. My view is as Green beans says it. There is no need to have vast inequality and unfairness where people are going to food banks, children in huge classes and people not having access to health service.

[Spicoli]

Please invade me. We'll fight with every ounce..and will resort to biting if need be. Or not needed. Why be picky.

Austerity is a stick to beat people with.

What do you propose in its place?

Reminds me of the ol' times when me and Kirk use to debate these things here. This issue of left and right has been muddled just a bit too long by the old cold war rhetoric. Darn, both sides have been stubbornly sticking to their extreme positions but believe me, when all the dust of the cold war has settled down, people will debate this issue in a more objective manner and they will find the right balance where everyone gets what is best for them. That's how it is and how it will be and nobody can stop that. But by the way it's going now, it'll probably take another thousand years or so...
...make it another hundred years...
