Dont start on the hippy, cos like i said i dont give a f*ck ! Everyone has a right to an opinion and i expressed mine..so telling me to stfu is you trying to deny me that right lol

Just look up the multitude of religious nuts that are anti gay yet are still homosexual, they're own self hatred is what has pushed them into the position they are in, its all because the can't control their own urges, so they must hide eveything from everyone to keep from tempting themselves, but it only makes ther urges that much worse.

Thats the point i dont want to know, the only time i get het up about politics(if you can call it that..cos its a joke really), is when it concerns myself. I get that the government is there to control the people, to mantain order..i couldnt wait for the first time that i was allowed to vote(i voted labour, tony blair got in), but since then i stopped...because i dont believe theres any power in the majority. The British elections compared to Americas are like a barn dance being put next to a Metallica concert..wait Metallica are cool..hmmm okay White snake concert then

You failed to vote, you failed to have an opinion. One an doesn't change a thing, you have to participate in elections at all levels of government.

You think too highly of our elections, we're only slightly less fux0red then you are, we usually let the aussies copy you, then we try then the canucks follw suit...

For the record, I'm a pro green party, pro legalization of marijuana and cocain leaves, not cocain in drug form, pro guns, just not hand guns or other concealable weapons(I could care less though if you wanna walk down main street with an AK-47 on your shoulder and a full length katana on your hip, cause I can tell you have them) and pro breeder reactor(we need to stop the nuke scare so we can actually get rid of nuclear waste by reprocessing it and burning it down for power till theres nothing radioactive left in it, burying it under a mountain for 250k years and hoping nothing bad hapens isn't a solution) other then that I'm all for national health care, helping out developing nations, moving to green power such as wind, solar thermal and deep earth geothermal look to be the cleanest and cheapest options. Solar thermal is when you build a tower surronded by mirrors aimed at a central point, that poing is where you place a big pipe filled with liquid sodium, when its heated it can power a steam turbine, the same kind used at coal and nuke plants today to produce power for up to 3 days of overcast skies just fine. deep earth geothermal, drill a few deep ass holes in the ground far enough to where the ground is realy hot, pump in water and steam comes up the other holes, place steam turbine over the holes anf free juice 24/7. Only side efect is a slight increase in low level earthquakes at aroung class 3 at the highest, too low to be of any real concern, the places that have tried it have yet to see an increase in quakes that cause damage. Though the french tried it and pussed out due to idiots thinking france was going to fall into the med...

I go with the green party cause they're the most agreeable since I'm a hard mix to find...

WRONG !! I have an opinion..i just dont need to express it to the world for it to count for something.

Nope again..i dont think highly of your elections at all..i think its a completely shite 80's rock band type affair, totally over the top..maybe this is my Britishness coming out here and for that i dont apologise.

Jesus christ, this is what my children should look forward..if you had your chance to rule the world eh ?

The rest of what you said was actually agreeable..(kinda)

Nice to know you have such strong environmental feelings.. :note the sarcasm..

[Hell_bound]

DuoMaxwell you should learn to be humble, you may have an opinion but your opinion isn't worth any more then anyone's else unless you have substantial facts to backup your claims.

As to the topic at hand...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=INAGMSARPYw&eur

As stated by the congressman in the video:

Here's the facts. And we don't even talk about these things. On Thursday, at about 11:00 in the morning, the Federal Reserve noticed a tremendous drawdown of money market accounts in the United States to the tune of 550 Billion dollars was being drawn out in an hour or two. The treasury opened up its window to help. They pumped 105 billion dollars into the system and quickly realized that they could not stem the tide. We were having an electronic run on the banks. They decided to close down the money market accounts and announce a guarantee of $250,000 per account so there wouldn't be further panic.

If they had not done that, their estimation was that by 2:00 that afternoon, 5.5 Trillion dollars would have been drawn out of the money market system of the United States, would have collapsed the entire economy of the United States, and within 24 hours, the world economy would have collapsed. We talked at that time about what would have happened had that happened. It would have been the end of our economic system and our political system as we know it.

This happened last week, January 29th.

None really realize how close we really are...

This video is rather informative...well I think that much...

Whether you choose to believe it is another story...that's all I'm going to say

[DuoMaxwell]

You've still failed to have an opinion and make yourself heard, you must vote at all levels of government and you must contact those people when something comes up that you don't agree with.

As for your children being less safe due to firearms, grow up nannystater, an armed populace is essential to a functioning government as it prevents things from becoming as completely one sided as it has in your country where the government can release the military hounds and put you back in your hole. Guns also don't cause an increase in crime rates, just look at Switzerland where its mandatory for every home to have least one functioning firearm.

Even Ghana, one of the greatest pacifists in history saw the value of a gun, he also knew that just because you have it doesn't mean you will use it, but its a great thing to have when you are threatened by an external force. Like all weapons, the best one you can have is the one you never have to use.

And before you think a bunch of yahoos with rifles can't hold back a well trained and equipped military force if they had to, take a look at history, over the last 50 years it's happened over and over again that exactly that has happened, the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan are just the most recent case where a bunch of yahoos have actually managed to hold back one of the most powerful military forces on the planet and managed to hold them back for years using asymmetrical warfare techniques. Sure they where up against all manner of tanks, planes, bombs and boats yet are still there and still putting up a fight after all this time. You don't have to be more powerful, you just have to grind them down, one side will back down eventually, thats just the way it works.

And I also stated that there is no reason to have a concealed weapon, since how often is it that someone commits a violent crime with a riffle of any sort? Compare that to how often a handgun is used for violent crimes, notice that the handguns far outnumber the cases involving rifles? All of this is due to the fact that the small hand gun can be hidden away and carried on your person anywhere without anyone knowing its there, so you end up taking it to situations that could easily escalate.

As for the drugs, legalize at the very least marijuana and guess what? You've undermined the drug cartels biggest cash cow and it's also the one that causes fewer health problems then legal drugs such as alcohol and tobacco. Legalize cocaine in leaf form and you're also supplying a mild stimulant which will again take a deep cut out of the drug cartels again.

Drugs themselves aren't always that bad, its the way they are produced in an unregulated manner using any manner of hazardous chemicals that get tossed into the mix for whatever reason that causes the majority of the health risks. You wouldn't smoke a cigarette that had been dipped in bleach, formaldehyde and antifreeze would you?

So are you going to have an opinion or are you still content to let yourself be rolled over at every level of your government through your own lethargy, apathy and ignorance?



As for you hell bound, I refuse to be humble, I know full well what happened with our economic collapse and I had been saying that the way it was going it had to collapse 4 years ago, the old bastard just took longer then I expected to finally come to a grinding halt.

Just so you know, its not over by a long shot, the idiots that keep thinking we'll be out of it by the end 2010 are in for a big surprise. After years of companies lobbying to get all regulation removed and letting complete greedball morons take the to posts in almost every large corporation in the "western" hemisphere the deck is stacked against the world economy, the leeches will bleed the world dry for as long as they can. What happened is an epidemic that is much bigger then any one nation as all of the economic powers of the world are in on the game.

Don't try to bring up anything about the "free market" either, it does not and has never has existed since it depends on a well educated populace to make informed decisions about what they buy and who they buy it from. The local monopolies such as telephone and electric companies don't help either.

So instead we're going to be stuck with capitalism for the poor and socialism for the rich for a very long time to come.

I dont want to make myself heard..i havent come across anything where ive needed..wait once i did. I have no problem in standing up for myself..dont worry about that, but i only need to when necessary, which brings to my next point.

I dont believe in using extreme force. You want to carry a gun, thats fine, thats because in the U.S you have the right to bear arms..whoopie good for you. As for thinking my children are less safe..i do. Knife and gun crime is creeping up over here.. and really really hope to christ this doesnt mean that the police will eventually decide to carry guns at all times too, that day would be a sad..sad day indeed. The point is Mr..im a lover not a hater and ill never agree that everyone should have the right to carry a gun. Violence does not stop or prevent more violence, your just escalating it to a higher level.

First off..feck off. Second its your opinion that its essential. How is making everyone have a gun..essential to a functioning government ?? FFS

Guns have no value..other than there ability to end life.

The really want to go down this route..one of America's biggest mistakes in history..what good ever came from all that war...none...bloody none.

Are you listening to yourself here... Im not sure what you waffling about..are you saying everyone should have a rifle in their home or what ?? Make your point clearer please.
