Shoulda paid attention in history class. Slavery was abolished in other industrialized nations? Riiight. What industrialized nations are you referring to? The ones that didn't exist before the 1800s? Agriculture was the thing back then, mostly because the entire world was doing everything it...

Treat the cause, not the symptoms. Instead of asking for help to pay the high prices, wouldn't it be wiser to work towards bringing the prices down?

Slavery was common throughout the world at the time, not just America. Wealth doesn't preclude wisdom. I don't have a response for the thing about them being dead. I guess that makes them a bunch of useless dipshits. Stupid people, giving up their lives for us so we could insult them hundreds of...

Rather than repeat myself ad nauseum, I would invite you to just, you know, READ the thread. So you can see that what you are saying now, the issues you are bringing up, have already been addressed. Ask yourself this question. Why are medical bills high? Then ask yourself this question. How do...

Wikipedia? really? Ok, even wikipedia indicates that there are multiple definitions, definitions that are used and discarded with the passage of time.

Survival of the fittest. Fit meaning competence, intelligence, wisdom, strength, determination etc etc. Meaning you survive through your own abilities, succeed through your own hard work. You know, all that founding fathers bullshit that I keep spouting.

What catch phrases? You should be responsible? You should work hard to succeed? I think they call that being American. Is that a political party? The Americans? If so, I'm in. Stop trying to hide behind silly labels and stick to debating the subject at hand. I repeat: YOU HAVE TO PAY YOUR...

Look, man, i don't wanna make this a personal attack, but you seem to be picking apart the thread and keeping only the parts you want. 1) You have to pay your bills, medical or otherwise. Get over it. Installment plan, savings accounts, whatever. This will bring down the crazy ass prices that...

He is too uppity for me. Or not uppity enough. Either way, I am clearly racist for using the U word (pssst--UPPITY).

Yep, you got me. That is exactly what I said. Exactly. Stop being poor you piece of shit! Considering I live in abject poverty, can't afford to move out of my parents back yard where I live in my pull behind camper, am considering selling my pickup and getting a motorcycle (despite my abject...

Fittest referring to being smart, competent, capable, hard working etc etc. Your definition seems to mean ''I can kill you, so you have to give me your women.'' This isn't Mad Max... Yet.

Stacked against them due to endless political machinations. Go ahead and read everything that I have said in this thread so far (notice I didn't say ''re-read'') and then come back and pick up the rest of this post. See, every time a stupid, corrupt and morally bankrupt politician (all of them)...

Yeah, that's... Boy what a loser. Glad I'm 36 :waah:

That is why we fail. It's admirable to want to help everyone. I have a particular weakness for stray dogs. I mean, the poor doggy cannot care for himself due to generations of domestication. But I eventually broke myself of bringing home strays (although I occassionally succumb, which is why I...

FTFY And Republicans, like all politicians, are corrupt, useless and generally held in contempt by true fiscal conservatives.

I would call it a nation that was founded on the ideals of freedom. Freedom of religion, freedom of speech, freedom of the press, etc etc. We are a secular nation, with clear delineations of church and state. It's largely coincidence, oppression, famine and a variety of other factors that...

Ahhh yes, because that is exactly what I said. My ''political leanings'' and there should be no rules. We should just be like the old west, guns blazing. That is EXACTLY what I said. Yep. You must be an expert at that game ''Jump to Conclusions.''

It looks like there might have been a collision there. See how the wild driver has to swerve back onto the road after passing through the intersection? He's almost on the sidewalk on the right side of the road. Looks like he got tapped, can't tell if the puff of smoke is from exhaust or impact.
