The problem we have is that each side carries a poison pill of statism/authoritarianism.




Fascism, communism, socialism are all anti-individual at their core and merely different iterations of left-wing statism.

Obama is a statist. The only question that remains is what flavor of statist is he.

I agree. The Christian Conservative who wishes to force his or her religious beliefs on others is no different than the goose-stepper in terms of statism and destroying the liberty of the individual. That's not all Christian Conservatives, but only the ones who can't separate their religious convictions from political.

Both sides have enacted their statist will on the individual under the guise of "protecting" people.

Is it so bad to let people make wrong decisions and suffer the consequences? It's like aggressor said earlier. Greed has to be balanced by fear in the market place. Bad decisions must be punished with failure and loss. Nothing is more damaging to liberty than dependence. We should be treated as adults. The Statist wants to treat us like children. The left wants to tell us what to do with our money and the right to wants to tell us what to do with ourselves.
