Well, what are they?
Mine was far-left authoritarian, except for on war things where it said I was more on the right side.
(The first thing was probably due to all the anti-capitalist answers. I hate capitalism)
So what are yours? -
tongue NewbieLet me take it again real quick and I'll get back to ya.
-
tongue NewbieI am a left social libertarian. I'm a liberal basically, which I knew.
-
Demonjoe NoviceAppayipyip42, what's wrong with capitalism?
I scored as a right social libertarian, I am a libertarian basically which is something I usually score as. -
A lot of things-
It prevents equality.
It prevents us being united as a nation.
It's a huge cause for many of our issues, without the capitalism we would not be freaking out over the economy, and could move on to other issues.
See healthcare? You need insurance, aka lots of money, to get it. Why? Capitalism. If we got rid of it in favor of socializing healthcare, we could make a dent in unnecessary deaths and sickness. -
Hi
-
That's just what I think of it, think whatever the hell you want.
-
tongue NewbieI think it's better to have restraints on capitalism than to do away with it all together.
-
Mine didn't give me a specific party, just extreme far-left authoritarian.

Demonjoe NoviceAppayipyip42, if it prevents equality it is because some people worked harder than others and they got better jobs so they got more money. Having to work to get money, that's sounds perfectly fair to me. Socialist economies don't work out very well. If you're a regular guy and you live in a socialist country, you're not gonna want to work hard because you already your paycheck is going to get raped for it and given to some lazy douchebag who wants to live off the government, plus there are the hate mongering, class warfare promoting socialist politicians who are rich people themselves who bash you on TV. So when all of the rich people finally become "equal" with the middle or lower classes then who are the poor going to mooch, I mean get money from? Socialism isn't even a permanent type of economy, Karl Marx(someone like you should be familiar with) said that it is a pitstop to communism and we all know how communism has worked out in the past.
Universal healthcare doesn't work. In America if the governmnt can't run a freaking post office without it getting near bankruptcy, then how the hell can it possibly run something as complex as your health care? In Canada there are delays for vital treatments and operations that can sometimes go over a year, and if you're not delayed, then you just flat out rejected. In the U.K. the waiting times for patients in hospitals became so bad that the government made a mandate that patients must be seen to in less than 4 hours, but wait there is a loophole in this law, the time for the mandate doesn't start until you get into the hospital. They don't wash the sheats in between visits, they just turn them over. In the U.K. half of dentists there say they won't accept patients using government health care, that has led to about 1 in 5 people deciding not to get it because of how expensive it is. The national Institute for Health cand Clinical Excellence or NICE's job in the U.K. is to let you know if your live is worth living, in terms of money.
So universal health care and socialism all together don't work. -
Well, I'm not going to kill you for having your opinion, but I'm sticking with mine anyway.
Denmark is a socialist country, and look how they turned out. #1 Happiest in the World.
If your argument is about "lazy douchebags" then how about we fix the "lazy douchebag" problem by training everyone how to fight from the age of 7? Then no one will be lazy as they're training to fight. In fact, we'd be the strongest warriors/soldiers of all because we wouldn't need to work like the devil to simply make 5 dollars.
There will always be two sides to the argument though, and I can't change that. -
Demonjoe NoviceAppayipyip42, what I mean by lazy douchebags is people who would rather try to game the welfare system when they are perfectly able to work when there are people who really need welfare. Just because Denmark is the happiest country on Earth doesn't mean the people are healthy. In the book 1984 by George Orwell the people were miserable, but didn't even know it and were happy.
Hikaru Katsu, if your comment was towards my post than that's kind of sad. I wasn't using fancy words, I wasn't trying to impress anybody, I was just trying to give my point of view. I'm not politically ignorant, I follow the issues and I read about them. If you want to know about ignorance, then read the comment you directed towards me, you must have dropped the F bomb at least 4 times. and personal attacks? Really? I was presenting actual facts I read in a book and I'm sorry if that pissed you off. -
NO, it was to ALL Political sh1tz.
-
And wow, if you can't handle powerful words then Politics isn't a good issue for you, now is it?
-
Demonjoe NoviceThey weren't powerful words, it was attacks, I can handle attacks, it just really bugs me.
Sorry by the way, I thought it was directed towards me personally.
