This is true. We musn't be at one another's throats with Tennessee week so close.

To illustrate a point. What I'm doing is unfair. It makes an assumption that you are force-fed your beliefs based on the fact that you share one or two of said beliefs in common with conservative political pundits.
So liberals aren't force-fed as well? That's not fair to MSNBC and Huffington Post

The point is about fairness, not politics.
Again, why do you really care about my opinion and if it's "fair" or not?

Agreed. So stop worrying about my opinions so much

When I see 'em painting conservatives with a broad brush, I'm just as happy to call them on it.

Yeah, but seriously. Does anyone really get their news and opinions from these outlets? Like thirty or forty lamebrain assholes.

If I saw you out on the street and a group of guys decided that the way you were dressed made you look like a fig and they wanted to start pushing you around, I should just walk on by? Ignore what is, to me, an injustice?
Sorry, bro. I'm not wired that way.
ETA: I would point out that you aired your opinion on an Internet message board, where discussion is sort of encouraged, but that would be a bit obvious, wouldn't it?

Doubt it, but whatever.

Obviously enough to keep the lights on

That is obviously a completely different situation, being that it involves violence and all. An "injustice" on a message board is far different that a real threat of physical violence in the streets.

Of course. I don't care of you don't agree with my opinions. I'm not losing any sleep tonight over a message board discussion

Because it didn't fall into lockstep with your opinion, no doubt.
But hey, that's what makes a horse race.

I guess so. I don't read that shite.

It's an extreme analogy, I admit, but at the very core of the issue, the same principle is involved.

No, because I just don't think you would. For example, I don't see you criticizing the people who paint every corporation as bad or evil.

I just 'strike you as the type', eh? Besides. Corporations in and of themselves aren't bad or evil. That's like saying that a knife used in a murder is bad or evil.
They're only as cutthroat as the people who run them. If the executives care more about the bottom line than their employees, then they're pretty cutthroat. I don't know many executives, so I can't really say one way or the other. Scrushy struck me as the type who might care more about the dollar than the employees who help him earn it. Then again, Scrushy was a crook.

Certainly a better use of your time than talking on the Internet to me.

I just want to post in this thread.

I'm not big on protests, but I support this one. Our economy has gone down the drain. For the first time in American history, we will die with less stability and comfort than our parents did.

The Kappas are not the 1% now if they had done that in front of the Sigma X house then that would have made sense.

I was thinking that sign needed to be in front of the SAE house. Anyway someone earlier posted that Dubya was a KS...I think he was in one of those secret frats (Skull & Bones)...he may have been in a Greek one but I remember reading an article back in 2004 that compared Dubya and Kerry. Anyway this thread is going like all poli threads go...Retard

Occupy Wall Streets main point is to close tax loopholes for large businesses. Taxing those making over 1 million is basically just a repeal of the bush tax cuts which a a major cause of our deficit. Even a fricking child should know you cannot cut taxes/ revenue while trying to fund 2 wars over seas. Bush knew that what he was doing would lead too a massive deficit. That explains why Dick Cheney was infamously quoted in Bushes Presence saying "Reagan proved deficits don't matter." I don't know what those "hippies" are doing but real occupy wall street protestors are trying to fix what the previous republican administration messed up and demand some accountability from large businesses. Unlike the dumbass Tea Party members these people are actually mad at the right people. This is all way over those idiot Kappa Sigs heads though. I'm a Sigma Chi at the U of A too not some angry old head.
Are we forgetting what really got us into this mess in the first place?
Repeal of Glass-Steagal Act in 1999.

Its about socialism and unions pretending the current economic situation is caused by capitalism. Rather than the failed policies of rapidly turning socialist America
If only we'd all share what we have in this world and did away money then everyone would be equal.
