Conservatives..You don’t ever question when some Right wing talking head on TV tells you that liberals want a government like Venezuela or?

Question

the Soviet Union? It seems you’d have to be pretty gullible or just plain stupid to believe something like that particularly when liberals will tell you that’s not what we want. Even those who call themselves socialist will point to actual examples like Sweden or Denmark. How you characterize your opponents on...

Answer 1

yea we're gullible yet you believed all obamas BS for 8 years and still do

Answer 2

I don’t think you all have researched the Scandinavian model. The way it works is that everyone has a high tax rate. They do not tax the rich heavily, instead they tax the middle class at 35 to 45 percent. All the food you buy at the store is taxed at an additional 12 percent. Gas prices are over 8 dollars a gallon. There is a wealth tax. Its 31 dollars for burrito, chips and a drink which is taxed at 25% and a tiny apartment is over 1500 dollars a month. So it actually sucks and you can not save any money each month. Yes you can get your pension at 67 but you will not be able to retire early. A house costs a lot more and they are much smaller, plus there are tolls on almost every road. Would you really want to pay an additional 25k a year in taxes to get a health care system where you have to wait months for a sleep study or an MRI?

Answer 3

To be fair the left never questions anything they are told that is why conservatives are asked how racist they are. And it's not as if leftists haven't been asked thousands of times what they believe and they turn away and say they don't want an interview.We know that you don't want the fall out situation that Venezuela is experiencing but that is one of the things that happens with a Socialist government that and millions of deaths.

Answer 4

I am liberal, but listen to Limbaugh, Fox, etc. to hear the other point of view. One thing that really bothers me is the constant "liberals hate America" rhetoric. I love this country! We both want the same results - for our country to be prosperous and at peace - but we just have different ways of getting there.

I don't hear liberal media accusing conservatives of hating America...

Answer 5

The thing is, when Venezuela was doing good for a short-time under Hugo Chavez, I remember lots of Liberals coming out publicly telling us how great Venezuela's socialism was.

Answer 6

No.

Answer 7

That is what your Dem leaders have stated

Answer 8

There are far too many stupid people in the world.

Answer 9

I don’t listen to a “talking head” on tv. That’s obviously a liberal thing which is why you think everyone else does it too. I have enough common sense and knowledge of history and the way things work today, to know what to think on my own. The reason liberals can’t see reality is because they are wearing rose colored glasses from all of brainwashing. It’s your eyes that is having the “wool pulled over it”. You can not compare us to Sweden and Denmark. They actually have MUCH different policies than the socialist here gave AND they have a much higher percentage of the population contributing to the programs. You do know that Sweden does NOT have a national welfare system.

Answer 10

We only need to listen to what your side says.

You are making the same promises and pushing the same ideas as Hugo Chavez.
