Do you understand we already have a volunteer army(best kind); firemen(many volunteers as well; policemen and EMTs? Do you also understand that the majority of voters are happy with their traditional culture and are not interested in Barack Obama's totalitarian restructuring plan for their nation? >this "socialism" you speak of is mainly to provide an army, policemen, firemen, emergency medical technicians and water and sewer. It is a matter of society working together for the greater good. Do you understand that?<

=== "It is a matter of society working together for the greater good." === Society, as a whole, will never work together "for the greater good". Under communism and socialism, it is society working together for the greater good of the incompetent, corrupt, greedy and repressive leaders. In a free, capitalistic society, it is the successful, honest and principled that work for the common good, while most others, like liberal or left wing Democrats, are just in it for themselves. In Obama's case, if he wins, I can assure you that America will change into a society struggling under repressive taxes, and government regulations, that punish the successful and reward those that add no value to our economy. Obama means CHANGE, for sure, but a change from a strong, successful, and safe country, to one weak and economically failed, and one that will be much more open to attacks by the criminally insane Islamists.
