Proof: there are no classical liberals alive today

posit: there are no classical liberals alive today.

evidence: all "liberals" belong to the democrat party; the leaders of the party are globalists AND collectivists. these are the exact opposite of classical liberal ideology. anyone in the party espousing classical liberal beliefs are summarily shouted down and told to get in step with the leadership of the party.

ergo: there are no classical liberals alive today.

We as Black people need to study this list hard, very hard.  We as Black people need to understand this list and exactly what it means. 

We Black people are standing behind Barrack Obama, just because he's a half-breed Black person. But, we are adults and we need to get over that simpleton thinking and look at what he's doing. He is doing all 10 of the things that I just said a classical liberal would not do.

It is a shame when grown Black folks act so dumb on a subject so important, simply based on race. We need to grow up and recognize that, that Black face is not the man you really want representing you.

Who gives a good god damn, that he's Black? Who really cares? Yes, people voted for Bush, because he was simple enough, that they thought they'd enjoy a beer with him. Yes, people voted for Clinton, because he was a simple redneck that they could relate to. But, this corruption in Washington has gone way overboard. We need to stop voting for president because he's good looking - we're not dating him. We need to stop voting for president because he's simple - he has got to be far more intelligent than that. We need to stop voting for president because he's common - we don't need a common leader.

Hell, they are all filthy rich. And, we need to stop kidding ourselves, thinking they are not. They are not common. They are not simple. They are not down with the struggling Black man. They are not your hommie. Your hommie does not drive a stretch armored limo, last time you checked? 

We are handing the keys to the kingdom to a man, that is in the position of the most powerful person on the planet, and we're being stupified into thinking he's a classical liberal.

The man has told you time and time AND TIME again he's a communist, socialist, globalist, cronyist, oligarchist, neo-colonialist, nannyist and bureauchratist.

No globalist is going to do a damn thing for a Black person. No socialist is going to do a damn thing for a Black person. No police state worshiper is going to do a damn thing for a Black person.

Hate the Rich, Love the Poor

All this "hate the rich" fanfair is completely stupid.

All this "the poor are angels" is equally stupid.

The so called rich create ALL the jobs.

The obama taxes hit people who create jobs and wind up causing them to have to fire half of their staff.

There is no VIRTUE to being poor.

A lot of people are poor BECAUSE of taxes, directly AND indirectly.

How? all the taxes add up to lower pay if they raise them on you AND - higher taxes means that employers get rid of people because of taxes. you lose your job, while living paycheck to paycheck ... HELLO POVERTY.

The enemy is taxes and socialism, NOT the rich.

A rich person, by being rich, has NEVER made you poor or even taken money from you, nor affected you in any way, BUT TAXES HAVE.

Those very jobs you complained about going overseas, IS BECAUSE OF SUBSIDIES PAID BY OBAMA TO SHIP JOBS OVERSEAS. put the blame where it belongs. half of you people must be drinking the cool aid of main stream news. we are paying tax money TO THE COMPANY to ship the jobs overseas.

Finally, if you've gotten this far in reading my comment, then the final truth is that 90% of these taxes are UNNECESSARY, they keep a giant government, bloated beyond the scope of what it should be in the first place. who would you rather take care of the poor, you and your church, or some government agency that makes that same family of mom, dad, child get divorced, prove they are poor, move them out of their family home of 3 generations, prove they have no funds in their bank account, including funds for junior's college education, and THEN give them $300 / month.

Instead of paying taxes, local groups, organizations and individuals would do a much better job of taking care of the poor, homeless, elderly, single moms, families falling on hard times, than any government agency.

Instead of paying taxes TO HAVE JOBS SHIPPED overseas, "in the interest of free trade" yes this is what they claim it is for, we could completely eliminate those taxes form ever being taken in the first place and stop giving it to companies.

Instead of collecting huge amounts, yes millions, from individual people, we could cut all the social programs AND programs that actual hurt the american family AND remove the loop holes.  I guarantee you the rich would love it.

50% of the population is either exempt on taxes, or gets a full refund at tax season.  that means they pay no taxes, because they are poor enough not to have to pay. that means if you actually are in the top 50% you can afford to pay taxes. any sane person would then go to their accountant and tax lawyer and make sure to pay the least amount of taxes.

There is nothing virtuous about paying for a government, that doesn't represent you, does not care about you, tries their best to take as much money from you, JUST BECAUSE.

Instead of defending the government and fighting about who should pay MORE taxes, you should be fighting for everyone to pay less and less and less taxes, every year.
