WE DO NOT HAVE A FREE MARKET. Hello, Obamacare? What have these principles done for us? Hooray, we won't win another election but we'll have our principles! We'll never actually change anything, but we'll have our principles!Vince wrote: Yeah, you have to destroy the free market to save the free market. Honestly, if you want to know what those people accomplished, they got majorities in the House and Senate and at least threw up a speed bump against Obama for the last 6 years. While Trump was still making donations to the ones that were getting in OUR way. Making the country whiter has nothing to do one way or the other with replacing the ACA with something equally bloated and centralized and in federal control. I really don't understand what the point of winning elections is if we're just going to abandon our principles and become liberal socialists in practice "because Trump". I people that used to call themselves conservative keep debasing themselves to agree with Trump on his big government schemes, there will be no difference in the two parties within a couple of years. It'll be about jerseys rather than ideas and principles.
Would I like to live in a free country? Hell yes. But I don't have that choice. I have a choice between living in America under Hillary or America under Trump. America under Hillary means more immigration and amnesty and millions more Democrat voters to whom the enlightenment means nothing: it's all GIBS ME DAT.
You COULD make a case for "the worse the better." I would actually kind of agree with that case. But you're not. You're making the same tired, worthless, loser argument about "principles." Ok. You're playing by a set of rules that the other team isn't following. Good luck with that.
