I'd be interested in continuing the conversation about the chicken/egg relationship between religion and morality, but that's philosophy. As far as Politics, it seems to me that much that has been mentioned here has been mentioned before and has eventually boiled down to a partisan, polarized left vs. right battle royale...and that's not what we want. I'm going to still read this thread with great interest waiting for the holy grail of Politics: the convergent issue!
Edit: look over in philosophy in a few minutes for the religion/morality thread...

What about Universal Healthcare?
I know it was discussed previously and pretty much went down in flames; I am wondering if it can be brought up again.
Using this thread as a launching point, we know what we expect of each other.
We also might consider agreeing to some basic groundrules and guidelines for any threads that spawn off of this one. That way, we something mutually (well, for the most part) agreed upon that we can hold each other accountable to.
Whaddya think?
p.s. I think it is a bit lofty to look for the grail in the initial stages, but who knows how this will progress.
