My vote:

"None of the above" for all answers.

They were all said by one person.

Scary...

because Hilary Clinton was my first guess before you even gave me the hint. I was like, "Oh, fuck, that's got to be Hilary."

What makes you so scared of woman you spent your time producing this kind of propoganda?

Mother issues perhaps?

Um... in context none of these are really all that disturbing. Number one is maybe too blunt, but honestly.....

Taxes are taken from everyone at a fairly minimal amount and pay for a very important social safety net that covers things like employment insurance, parental leave, health care, education, roads and infrastructure.

What's the problem? Are any of those observations incorrect?

I know; anyone who ever told me life would be fair, lied!  

So, I'll make up my own question:
:question: What are the three biggest lies in the world? :question:

Based on her own statements, seems to me Hillary Clinton is either a socialist or a communist.  Take your pick.  Personally I plan to vote libertarian if there is a candidate on the ballot but I am afraid with her massive war chest of campaign funds, she's already got the nomination and the election in the bag.

And what is so wrong with a mild dose of socialism? Canada is moderately socialist, and we're doing pretty well all things considered. Health care for everyone, decent public education, social assistance when needed and no one dies from hunger, poverty or lack of access to medicine. And at the same time, if I understand correctly, our taxes are just about equivalent to yours - we're just not spending ours on war. We encourage immigration as immigrants fuel our economy and work bloody hard when they get here (as a broad generalization).

And hey, who's dollar is worth more now?

As one of the few people who thinks a little collectivism never hurt anyone, I wish Hilary were a little more to the left. But anyhoo....

Question... What is up with America's Love hate relationship with this Woman?Nothing in the world starts conversation like "so how bout that Hilary huh"  She appears to attract as much vitriol in the US as The English Rugby side does here. Whenever I have been to your neck of the woods and her name has come up at dinner parties and such all i have heard is words to the effect of THAT BITCH. Followed by depending on which side of the left right divide my fellow guests are arguments like:
-Worst thing that happened to America, Ball breaking left wing feminazi, etc
OR
-Does not go far enough, should have left bill, yuppie sellout of all ideals etc
.
 yet it appears she is leading in all the polls.
I am very curious. What gives with the Hilary thing?

I used to wish our voting system was similar to australia's, i.e. voting is mandatory. At least you can abstain when you get there and draw a giant cock on the ballot, but you have to show and cast a vote.

But then I realized, do I want all of the idiotic yahoos in this country who *don't* want to vote exercising the power at the ballot? Probably not. So fuck em.

You would actually be surprised at how few ppl actually do draw a dick on the ballot or bin it. Most just figure since they are there and actually genuinely vote. But yes assclowns do come out in force. How else to expalin 11 yrs of john Howard? at least Americans know that when they vote for a terrible guy like bush  (thanks to most not voting at all )
eventually he has to retire. i wish we had fixed terms.

BTW Castle- Are you the only person in Sanfransisco that votes republican????  or was that sign a gag?
So is the Hilary thing that she is considered the best of a bad lot? Cause a lot of ppl seem to like obama but he is not polling as well
