Poly Sci
 

So, I'm taking a political science class. I'm sitting here reading this text, and it's comparing the basic difference in viewpoint between conservatives and liberals. Here:

All I keep thinking is that, according to liberals, Johnny Bliss is capable of reason and rational thought. This defies the obvious truth of the matter... and brings me back around to Johnny being a liberal-bashing conservative.


Guys, the whole system is irrevokably fucked. :3

Thanks, Moe.

Mr. Yoseph,

You must understand that all of these people are out of their damn minds. While Republicans "Conservatives" (as they call themselves) claim we're all FREE (see: cumbaya mufukaz), don't realize that being free to dick your boyfriend in the ass as far as next door and doesn't effect your household should be a crime. Liberals claim that the government stealing your paycheck before you see it (see: federal withholding) and giving it to any other person (working, not working, another country, etc...) is all fine and dandy, while any private citizen doing the same thing would land them in the clink for robbery.

In the end, your teacher must realize that she'd be honored to have me speak to the class, and after you whippersnappers went home, she'd bow down to these nuuuutz.

Re: Poly Sci
 

She's about 60. I daresay she'd love your bowzack, Steve, but only if you indoctrinate her lyrically.

Re: Poly Sci
 

"Oh ----, I forgot my lyrics were so explicit" O0


She might be 60, but my cutoff is 6-2 ziggen. Clear that up then I'll swing by.

You know what Davis.

My poly sci professor was a retired judge. He explained to the class why he was a republican. He was God loving,self righteous and proclaimed wealthy man. I showed up to the class maybe 10 times and on the final he asked if I was even in the class. Had 3 tests that was the whole grading of the course walked out with a B and joy that I didnt have to hear the bullshit a 65 year old white man proclaims is the logical choices regarding government/life.

Re: Poly Sci
 

the funny thing about politics is that the left wing and the right wing end up connecting after awhile....almost like a circle....

Re: Poly Sci
 

anytime bro.

Re: Poly Sci
 

I remember all that ---- from freshman year of college. I though I knew everything about politics and could suddenly talk intelligibly about it. Ah, they grow up so fast.

Re: Poly Sci
 

poly sci classes are a joke.

take the political world as you see it. don't listen to someone's made up interpretation.

poly sci, and poly sci professors are clowns

Re: Poly Sci
 

Johnny Bliss just might be on to something here.

Re: Poly Sci
 

ok

Re: Poly Sci
 

There's some interesting ones and some wacked out ones. You can learn from either if you take it for what it is.

Re: Poly Sci
 

Political Science is in itself an oxymoron. :S Politics aren't an exact science. :3

Although I prefer...

Re: Poly Sci
 

I could care less about policitcs, thank god I'm not required to take any poli sci classes. I'd rather study heat transfer... barely.

Re: Poly Sci
 

I really enjoyed Poly Sci... it was very interesting.

On the issue of conservative vs liberal, it's getting tougher and tougher these days to distinguish the two sides. I am for LESS government involvement, less government spending/programs, and thus less taxes. Ron Paul's idea of taxing money being spent instead of income makes a lot more sense. I think this would promote saving money (something this country is horrible at doing), and boost the economy.

Re: Poly Sci
 

you are right about your first two points, but saving money does not boost the economy. its quite the opposite.

Re: Poly Sci
 

We need more capital goods spending and less consumer spending. That's something that will change with time, hopefully.

Re: Poly Sci
 

We need to work on the trade deficit.

Re: Poly Sci
 

You work on the trade deficit by buying/producing capital goods and then producing consumer goods with them :1

Re: Poly Sci
 

Work on trade deficit by not shopping walmart and buying lead-laden toys for the children.

Re: Poly Sci
 

You cant blow all your money at Wal-mart when you've invested it in capital goods :1

Re: Poly Sci
 

this thread spells the end of orange chicken

Re: Poly Sci
 

ok

Re: Poly Sci
 

but nobody does that.

Re: Poly Sci
 

we need to send those ------s back to afrika

Re: Poly Sci
 

A lot of people do. You just don't notice it because it's not conspicuous.

Re: Poly Sci
 

I always try to consume conspicuously, so that the people around me can learn by example. It works on television, so why can't I start my own viral meme?

Re: Poly Sci
 

because your too ------- old to say things like meme and understand things on tv

Re: Poly Sci
 

A won't argue with "a lot," but definitely nowhere near a majority.

A majority are stupid
A majority don't care
A majority are too poor to buy American
A majority don't realize what buying foreign junk does

A minority cares enough to shop somewhere else

Re: Poly Sci
 

Give us some time. If we get a chance to clear out the socialist and unions america will be prime for production. It's almost already getting to the point where it's cheeper to make things here rather than shipping them from asia.

Re: Poly Sci
 

My generation coined the word, and spoonfed you all our canned concepts via television. You are a derivative of my generation, and I assure you nothing unique or sophisticated will arise from you.

Re: Poly Sci
 

bang bus is pretty sophisticated

Re: Poly Sci
 

The dudes on bangbus are our age. They are the ones driving the bangbus, and doing the -------. So what if every 17-19 y/o girl to ever turn Yuriney down appears on an episode? It's still a product of our generation, not his.

Yuriy is an idiot and no doubt pronounces it "mee-mee". :3

Re: Poly Sci
 

Anyway, this is an online class and the instructor just made a post referring to socialism and communism as forms of democracies because they are of the people. I just asked her to clarify, cited where the text excluded (by omission) communism from taking democratic form. Also in the text it cites socialism, feminism, liberalism, and conservatism as turning to democratic means as a preferred method of effecting change, whereas communism prefers "revolution." I'm curious how a democracy can be of and by the people when it siezes the means of production from the people?

I dunno, it sounds good in abstract theory and everyone who reads it gets a warm fuzzy, but that Marxist ----, "from each according to his ability, to each according to his need," makes me think of the already extant masses of fools expecting me to make their chinese kitted shitwagons to work for them. The last thing I need is mob rule where fools tell me what my business is. That is ------- disaster.

Re: Poly Sci
 

socialism and communism ARE NOT of the people. you are right, its obviously not.

when the few in power in the govt have the power and are not elected, thats not "the people"
