Governments have set wages and prices by edict since at least the time of the Roman Emperor Diocletian. That's a bad idea, too.

You're an anarchist, I get it.

Do you realize that this is a CONSERVATIVE forum and that the owner DOES NOT allow the homosexual agenda to be advance here?

Do you realize that you have NO RIGHT to advance your belief in homosexual marriage here?

One more time: FR's constitutional conservative activism agenda!!

One more time:

As a conservative site, Free Republic is pro-God, pro-life, pro-family, pro-Constitution, pro-Bill of Rights, pro-gun, pro-limited government, pro-private property rights, pro-limited taxes, pro-capitalism, pro-national defense, pro-freedom, and-pro America. We oppose all forms of liberalism, socialism, fascism, pacifism, totalitarianism, anarchism, government enforced atheism, abortionism, feminism, homosexualism, racism, wacko environmentalism, judicial activism, etc. We also oppose the United Nations or any other world government body that may attempt to impose its will or rule over our sovereign nation and sovereign people. We believe in defending our BORDERS, our constitution and our national sovereignty.

Free Republic is private property. It is not a government project, nor is it funded by government or taxpayer money. We are not a publicly owned entity nor are we an IRS tax-free non-profit organization. We pay all applicable taxes on our income. We are not connected to or funded by any political party, news agency, or any other entity. We sell no merchandise, product or service, and we offer no subscriptions or paid memberships. We accept no paid advertising or promotions. We are funded solely by donations (non tax deductible gifts) from our readers and participants.

We aggressively defend our God-given and first amendment guaranteed rights to free speech, free press, free religion, and FREEDOM of ASSOCIATION, as well as our constitutional right to control the use and content of our own personal private property. Despite the wailing of the liberal trolls and other doom & gloom naysayers, we feel no compelling need to allow them a platform to promote their repugnant and obnoxious propaganda from our forum. Free Republic is NOT a liberal debating society. We are conservative activists dedicated to defending our GOD-GIVEN rights, defending our constitution, defending our republic and defending our traditional American way of Life.

Our God-given Life, Liberty and freedoms are NOT negotiable!!

For God, Family, Country, Live and Liberty!!

If you cannot live with the above, fine, but keep your mouth shut about it. Don't fight against us on ANY of our deeply held beliefs!!

DON'T TREAD ON ME!!

Anti-Life and Liberty trolls will be ZOT on sight!!

Whenever the left wants to advance their evil agenda they do a poll and then push the belief that something is right because they were able to get the majority of people to go along with it.

Today is Good Friday, the forces of evil used polls two thousand years ago too.

Funny they should continue to push these lying polls. Everywhere in the country, even in what are reputedly the most “liberal” states, whenever these questions have reached the ballot, we have won. Every time. More than thirty times, in fact.

At the last election we the people here in Iowa had our chance to express our will. We threw three of the judges who imposed this immoral policy on us out on their black-robed rears.

And yesterday, our best five state representatives filed articles of impeachment on the remaining four.

Gay marriage is supported mostly among the young, whihc makes sense because gay marriage is only promoted through popular culture and public education.

But people's attitude's change as they get older.

They’re lying.

Just trying to level the playing field. They could never advance their agenda if they told the truth.

Opposition to government wage and price controls makes one an anarchist?

Even here in Massachusetts the left can only keep homosexual “marriage” alive illegally. If we were allowed to vote it would be gone.

Exactly!

They couldn't even get this through on the ballot in California in 2008. Now, the left tried to somehow blame it on the Mormons, but the facts don't hold up:

2008 California Presidential Results: 13,743,177 votes were cast and Obama received 61.01% of the votes.

2008 California Proposition 8 (defining marriage as between man and woman) Results: 13,743,177 votes were cast and 52.24% voted in favor of it.

This means that millions of people voted for Obama and also voted to define marriage as being between a man and a woman. This means that even on the left there is strong opposition to homosexual marriage.

If this were true, advocates of same sex marriage would be trying to get it on the ballot. They aren’t. Why do you suppose that is?

"Precisely my point."
It's a good one. Just not too popular.

Apparently not, judging from the last wave of responses....

Like I said many have been coditioned to think that a piece of paper from the state determines if one is married or not. Just like state involvement in charity and education, it usurpes the role of faith, at least in modern times.

Another point is that the pro-life movement is really growing among young people. I think the same will happen with the “gay is good” lie. People will wake up, the more they see and find the truth about homosexual life and agenda. And more and more kids are homeschooled, too.

It’s government “entanglements” in the form of judges with the occasional legislature forcing faggot “marriage” on people who, time after time, prove that they do not want it.

Polls are invariably inaccurate. I used to get Zogby polls emailed to me, and they got worse and worse. There was no way on earth to answer truthfully. And many are worse than Zogby.
