I'm still amazed at how, frankly stupid, that person actually sounds. It's not possible to SOUND this stupid without actually BEING this stupid.
You have had the opportunity to see inside the mind of a genuine dumbass.

People should actually visit that discussion to read more insane remarks from the posters and how a couple of other people agree with that poster's insanity.

You can get an idea of the quality of the author’s thinking by the way he puts words together. He can’t. Complex thoughts dissolve into incoherence. People like this run our government and teach in our universities.

Libs live in a fantasyland. If you try to shake them out of it, they try to bite you.

The liberal democrat is so twisted that normal right thinking that actually works well is an obamanation to the leftwing marxists. They are all fools of the worst sort and will destroy all of us if we do not stop them. Long ago, I came to the conclusion that liberal democrats are either idiots or a**holes. One or the other, sometimes both. As an example, statements made by just one of many liberal relatives, a brother-in-law:
Within five years, all cars will be electric powered. You should get rid of your gasoline powered cars now before they're worthless.
I'm investing heavily in solar panels. I'll save thousands on electricity bills.
I'm investing money in pre-fab houses made from recycled materials. Everyone is going to want one of these to live in.
Obama is going to get us to the Moon again. He's all for space programs.
And so on, too many idiotic statements to repeat. He's the idiot type liberal.

I think even the people at DU would like to distance themselves from the poster I'm quoting.

Einstein said insanity is doing the same thing over and over again, and expecting different results.
By this definition ALL Socialist or Statist are insane. Statism in one form or another has been tried over and over again for over 400 years, and in all that time there has not been once case where it has worked. The results are always the same for it leads to shared misery, poverty, and death. Socialism has killed over 150 million people in the last century, more than all wars, disease, and religion. As Margaret Thatcher said, socialism only works till it runs out of other peoples money.

Now imagine that the richest 2 or 3 percent were instead to vanish over night? Would we even notice it as we rose and went to work? As far as I know I would still have a job and my business would still run as usual. Clueless and wrong. It may take a few days, but you'd be out of a job by the end of the month. He obviously has no idea how the economy, how businesses, really run.

The results are always the same for it leads to shared misery, poverty, and death. Though not necessarily for the statist. And, therein, lies its appeal.

Liberals will never allow themselves to believe that. So, they are doomed to repeat the mistakes of the past.

Uh, with 10% of the population paying what, 70% of taxes. And the bottom 50% paying NOTHING, this guy would go to work for about 2 weeks and wonder where his paycheck went, Why the business closed,why schools are closed, there's no police or firemen, nobody to pay his unemployment, why the utilities are being shut off, etc.
Does this cretin understand WHY he has a job? Because some "rich guy" had an idea and started the business. The "little guy" and the poor didn't.
