How do you justify this lunacy?

[OrangeEmpire]

So you would not like free medicine on a personal level?

What does me going to a place eat and not have smoke in the room have to do with medical help?

What is so hard about this?

I do not agree with the smoking ban but I like it.

What is hard about that?

 

[allvol123]

Just asking. I assume you are not for free healthcare but you'll like it if it happens?

As I said, I hate smoking. But I hate the government infringing even more.

How do you relate the two?

Oh wait the asinine meter is going off!

I love smoking, but I hated listening to people gripe about smoking in the smoking area. I guess I am indifferent since the bar I go to allows smoking.

It is. I am sure that is a daily occurrence in your head.

I just prefer freedom of choice. OE is pro-government intervention.

 

[Fine Vol]

I will take a cancer gar.

1.) It cannot be related.

2.) You have no idea...........

Allvol wants to cut me because I do not like smoking........ and he blames me for letting it happen and not standing up for the private business owner.

Not cut you. But I may give your starting position to FineVol.

Anyone who would use the means of government to take something (anything, no matter how small) from a person who earned it and give it to someone who didn't is a Socialist. So, yes, Bill Clinton was a socialist too. So are almost all current members of Congress, Dems and Republs alike, and all US presidents and government officials that have ever existed. Calling someone a "centrist" or "progressive" or anything else doesn't change that. They are Socialists.

By this definition, aren't all taxes an instrument of Socialism?

I just had deja vu.

Good luck OE - I tried loosening the top of this jar a long time ago and had no such luck.

 

[OrangeEmpire]

Not cut you. But I may give your starting position to FineVol.

So in the end it all boils down to the private business owner and I am not outraged.

I do not like that government took control of the matter but I cannot say that I do not like it.

That is really it with this issue.

 

[OrangeEmpire]

I just had deja vu.

Good luck OE - I tried loosening the top of this jar a long time ago and had no such luck.

Either way it started a spirited debate....

I'm just glad I could bring you and OE together.

You accomplished your one good deed for the day!

Here here!

When are we going to start the 1-900 biz? I could use some extra cash...

 

[OrangeEmpire]

I forgot all about that............

We need a snazzy name......

Mhmm, but when it comes to a woman's right to choose, you're all about the government stepping in.

 

[joevol320]

the way the government taxes cigs, it seem they would encourage us to smoke. imagine if everyone on the state just stopped smoking and buying cigs. what would happen? the states would go broke would our taxes.

Because abortion and paying for someone's healthcare are totally the same thing.

Sorry, but you're not going to turn this into a "same thing" debate. The point is, you can't whine about the government interfering in certain things and not others. You can't have your cake and eat it too.
