Liberalism is unsustainable. when things go wrong in liberalism they pile more liberalism on top. pretty good example of what's wrong with the us budget, us healthcare. liberalism breaks it. government breaks it. they pile more liberalism on top of it until it eventually implodes, like obamacare is going to, or like social security is going to. all of these things, they're not sustainable, because liberalism isn't.

Mighty cultures never - are almost never conquered. they crumble from within. and frankly, i think that a lot of americans are acting like spoiled brats because everything that isn't working out perfectly every time.

..i find it incredible impossible not to cry when i hear stevie nicks's "landslide," especially the lyric: "i've been afraid of changing, because i've built my life around you." i think a good test to see if a human is actually a robot/android/cylon is to have them listen to this song lyric and study their reaction. if they don't cry, you should stab them through the heart. you will find a fusebox.
