1. You mean like the irresponsibility of Cheney giving noncompete, costplus contracts to his firm, Halliburton, who then proceeded to steal ON TOP OF THOSE CONTRACTS? You condone such graft and corruption from the rightwing? Why? 2. If you don't like organizations, then GET OFF THE GRID. Why don't rightwingers ever take this advice to heart? They whine and moan that it's socialism and collectivism and communism all the time but they FAIL to get off the grid and live INDEPENDENTLY. I would applaud any rightwinger who goes off into the wilderness, without the products and services of 'collectivism' and lives off the land. I think rightwinger hunter gatherers have been out of date for way too many centuries and they should be making a comeback. After all, if you hate collectivism, then don't use the collectivist streets, postal service, sidewalks, bridges, electricity, water, clean food, police, firemen, hospitals, internet, etc. etc. Why don't you sit down and think clearly for once in your life. 3. Communist China is growing at 3 times our rate and is likely to surpass us as the world's largest economy (It's the Middle Kingdom rising!) in a few decades. Meanwhile, rightwing America is hollowing out our middle class and turning us into second class power. 4. Thank your lucky stars that progressives and liberals are still fighting for this country as you have turned against it.
