You bring up an interesting point; who is more conservative and who is more progressive?
I think that's pretty easy to figure out, based on the issues we support. So instead of simply making a claim that someone is more conservative than you, add evidence along with the claim. For instance, do you support universal healthcare? Universal college? Student loan forgiveness? A new green energy deal to advance clean energy technology? Campaign finance reform? Financial regulations? Etc. or not?
Based on the issues, I support the progressive position on all of them. Do you?
I also liked the post brah. That wasn't enough of a clue. Sigh.
Universal healcare is a right of every citizen. Healthy citizens are more productive. Who are willing to do so because they feel they're appreciated. Those who worry about their health tend to become synical and want to lash out. They give up, becoming bitter, which ends up feuling a never ending cycle of greed and hate relationships by both sides who consider each other as mutual enemies, rather than neither could survive without the other.
It's a hard work toiling your labor away for what you consider isn't appreciated. It's also hard to take a business risk. Both sides should respect each other, but the employer should have even more respect for their employee considering their potential for the ability to fuck over your life so hard.
The one with the most power has a duty to reassure the subordinate, but at the same time doesn't give the subordinate an excuse to take advantage by not trying the best to their ability if given proper respect.
College needs to be available for all, providing you have the talent. Anyone with the proper aptitude should be given the same opportunities. Making college so expensive makes that impossible. So students don't abuse such a wonderful gift, government, and employers.need to work out a plan which guarantees future employment. Otherwise everyone wastes their time, especially the student who has no clue what employers really want.
Which is why student loan forgiveness is a must for students who were tricked by predatory universities who give them false hopes what "education" they offer is going to pay off. If by after say four or five years after not being able to find a job which is enough to pay your loans and also live a life worth what you couldn't have without that education financial burden, the loan should be 100% forgiven
That way universities will have the incentive to prove an actual service for students by working together with government and business in the manner I described.
Green and clean energy is because we all live on the same planet and have a collective responsibility to preserve it through renewable resources for generations to come which we took for granted as a given before the industrial revolution proved was no longer true.
Money should be out of politics completely. Everyone should go to an event, they explain who they are, what accomplishments they've done, and what they plan to do. Then give like a month or two to decide. If they screw around while in office by not attending votes, not actively forcing other politicians do what they promised, and participate in consensus agreements with those who don't fully agree or even at all, they're removed from office immediately and replaced by the one who got second place.
The rich need to provide guarantees that they aren't gambling away money others have entrusted upon them when their risk is minimal, especially considering they can make up a ficticious entitity whom they call is a person who has minimum association with themselves, while having the ability to declare bankruptcy upon the fake person, with almost no consequences to themself personally. While any ordinary person doing the same ruins their life for years to come doing the same as a real person declaring bankruptcy.
So you tell me. Do I get a Yay or Nay for, "Am I a Trump supporter?"
