I, myself are mostly a centrist. I would have voted for John McCain, had the Bush and the Neo's not knocked him out of the primaries in 2000 by calling people in S.C. and saying he fathered a baby out of wedlock. Just goes to show the lengths to which the extremes go to get their grasp on power. But, to attack Realist and call him a socialist is plain ridiculous. Anybody with any brains can see what he wrote is that their is a place in government for certain regulations when the private sector cannot regulate itself, and, the private sector will NEVER provide assistance for the least fortunate.

Having assistance for people who cannot provide for themselves by no fault of their own (handicapped/disabled, etc), should be able to rely on the government when they don't have family to help out. Able-bodied, lazy, people have no place wasting my tax dollars, nor do Un-wed mothers who keep having kids to collect more assitance. I believe the family is still the most important thing. Government shouldn't be regulating a lot of things that you would say they should be. You cannot have it both ways. You cannot tell the government to say that they can legialize discrimination against certain segments, but then say, they cannot regulate industries such as ours to keep it clean and legal. Their is room in our industry for both points of view, but, to attack somebody is just plain stupid, and I hope you think a little before you write next time.

and,
you have a nice day.
