Yeah, we need socialism!!!!

Hey bob, you're still kind of new to the Freerepublic so I'm willing to cut you some slack.  You're forgetting the rules.  This is a conservative forum and we believe in freedom, self reliance, lower taxes, and smaller government.  You've got to always remember that many poor conservatives will starve if the government doesn't tell the rest of us where to shop --that's why only a traitor would want his import taxes cut.

I, OTOH, am NOT a newbie and I think those who oppose free tread ARE espousing a form of socialism.

The idea is to make Free Trade work by making it free.

PS: This is also a conservative forum of people who know how to argue and ad hominem attacks are considered to be gauche and "against the rules."

If you wish, I can point you to sites that deal with argumentation and logical fallacies. I am sure I can get someone to give you a test that will prove you have the ability to post on this forum. A this point you fail miserably.

"..that's why only a traitor would want his import taxes cut."

I don't understand.
