My ideology has not been implemented. What we currently have is a hybrid system that I think is destine to fail. If you have been reading what I have written you would know that. Your pattern with me is to respond to what you think I am writing rather that responding to what is actually written. That is one reason I rarely interact with you on anything other than the most superficial level.

but like i've said before, arguing with you is like playing chess with a six year old. there's no challenge and it's not interesting.
I was a pretty good chess player when I played - I doubt you would have a chance if we ever played. You are far too emotional and reactionary to be any good.

look at the figures. you are bothered by deficits, start with repealing the bush tax cuts. stand down on the republican-friendly "war on terror"---which obama buys into---along with the whole of the national-security state apparatus.

you aren't serious at all. this is nothing but cheap political posturing.
See what I mean. What are you responding too? Certainly not that I don't trust the people in Washington. Did you notice I used the word "Washington". I did not use the words "liberal", "Democrats", "Neo-liberal", "socialist", "Keynesian" - I use the word "Washington" and I did it for a reason. Currently, Republicans are trying to respond to the trust issue, Democrats are not. Read what I write or stop wasting your time!
