I don’t think debate has anything to do with it. People are being crushed under Big Government.

We are 31 spots behind Uzbekistan and 33 spots behind Cambodia.

Yeah, I hated moving out of my Mommy’s house at 15 but, she couldn’t tell me what to do anymore and I was free to make my own decisions....

That 12% is not so cutely close to the 1 in 9 scotus votes on such important constitutional issues. One mo time is all the clown needs.

Too many people have forgotten why our ancestors came to this country in the first place. Too many people don’t appreciate freedom until they have lost it. Too many people take our freedom for granted. We are headed toward a tyrannical government and too many can’t see it happening.

“Freedom has its life in the hearts, the actions, the spirit of men and so it must be daily earned and refreshed — else like a flower cut from its life-giving roots, it will wither and die. ~Dwight D. Eisenhower”

I read that article several times and still have no idea what it means. I don’t even understand the question. Does it mean people want to be free and don’t think they are? Or does it mean people aren’t happy being free and would trade less freedom for more econmic security? Or is it simply an indication that people think government is corrupt and inefficent?

To some extent this makes sense. As the demonic-rats see the results of their choices and the consequences of their actions; perhaps it would be better to have other people make decisions for you.
At least then you can bitch about it without being a hypocrite.

I think its just due to the advancement of the police state. People are finally waking up and seeing that its affecting them personally now not somebody else.
