Top 10 Signs You Might Not Be A Libertarian byDarkSydeFollowforDaily Kos Email 347 Comments / 0 New Notice a propensity of newly minted Libertarians showing up lately? Perhaps it's just coincidence their ranks swelled in inverse proportion to George Bush's approval rating, ditto that so many are mouthing traditional conservative talking points. But what about the everyday gun toting townhall screamers and taxcutters and deficit ...

Authentic: used to describe a candidate who is unaware of current events and doesn't read a newspaper, and is proud of it. Class warfare: a technique by which teachers, nurses, firemen, and cashiers are believed to be oppressing derivatives traders and CEOs, which includes unreasonably complaining that their wages aren't keeping up with the cost of their health insurance. Conservative: a person profoundly respectful of heritage, tradition, and old-fashioned values while preaching ...

From what I understand, Libertarians do not believe in government regulation or assistance. The West Virgina area recently had a chemical spill making all the available water totally unuseable except for flushing toilets. Hospitals, nursing homes, restaurants are all unable to do their jobs. An etimated population of almost half a million people are affected, as well as the animals. I wonder who all drank the water before this chemical spill was identifie ...

Just curious if any of my pros/cons match anyone else's. Been making a list (and checking it twice LOL) to help me decide if I should leave MT for good for a non-MT paid hourly job (entry level). PROS: Work in my pajamas - no makeup, clothes, etc expenses Tank of gas lasts a month - cheaper insurance (older car so no payments) Inside my warm house during winter (WI is freezing!) Home with my dog Home for deliveries Catch up on bills, cleaning, laundry, etc during NJA Flex time or ...

Well here in California, we have passed a prop that OK's the sale of marijuana in pot shops, although it restricts exactly what areas they can run these businesses. Such as they must be at least 1 mile from schools and churches. Other restrictions too. But evidently the people of California do not want to make medical marijuana illegal. So they are still in business. In my opinion, selling marijuana is beneficial for patients with chronic conditions, such as ...

before they shut the government down. VA staff has been scraping the bottom of the barrel since Oct 1 to pay rehab, educational, disability, retirement, survivors and family benefits from dwindling funds. If the shutdown goes on past mid October, those benefits for November will be suspended. Meanwhile, 7000 more VA furloughs just made things a little harder for them. Wonder why they didn't address this in all their speeching when they all went out (flanked by medi ...

in direct defiance of Koch Brothers' cease and desist decree. Governor Christie, the only potential presidential GOP contender so far demnostrating a slight hint of bipartisan appeal that could portend a viable candidacy, was notably snubbed as persona non grata by fervent zealots who declined to invite him. This Cruz caucus public spectacle illustrates how accelerated rates of ever-deepening partisan schisms is pushing the fractured GOP beyond the limits of their suicidal mission. & ...

I have been working at home as a transcriptionist for about 20 years - give or take a temp job from time to time. I would like to know if there are any social groups anyone knows of for those of us who work at home. I got into this field because I have a special needs child and needed to work at home. I have a hard time with the isolation of working at home and it seems like it would be great to work in an office, etc., but then I wouldn't have the flexibility and the other advantages of ...

Ok, I found out last week that a friend of mine is collecting survivor benefits from 2 dead husbands at the same time. Has anybody else heard of that? I have a call in to social security to find out. I am hoping that if that's the case I can start collecting on my late husband at 60 and then switch to my ex-husband's retirement when I'm 62 and keep working part time and collect from both of them. It says you collect 50% of the ex-spouse's retirement be ...

Scarey stuff. Many of us have been disappointed in our MT careers, on hard times, not enough in savings, outsourced, unemployed, dwindling paychecks, and entering that last 10 year (or so) push....need Social Security....now this.

Social Security is a progressive entitlement program created by Republicans and Democrats working together. Those conservatives ideologically opposed have always tried to get rid of it, but voters wouldn't let them because it has always served its purpose of protecting us from the possibility of destitution when we're too old to work. Now their tactic of destroying it by delaying necessary adjustments has successfully brought Social Security to the point of failure. Like a home ...

Obama says he cannot guarantee Social Security checks will go out on August 3 By Corbett B. Daly President Obama on Tuesday said he cannot guarantee that retirees will receive their Social Security checks August 3 if Democrats and Republicans in Washington do not reach an agreement on reducing the deficit in the coming weeks.

Hello, I love MT despite all the pay and headache-related issues of the recent past. I am disabled so I can earn my $1100 per month (which is the maximum Social Security allows) in a way that's feasible from me - from home. It's pretty perfect. It just has the drawback of social isolation. I am quite isolated and this is not good. I have been trying to think of ideas to allay this feeling of isolation (which gets so bad I am having an ECT consultation next wee ...

aimed at seniors and disabled (AKA "deadbeats") by imposing hindrance/prohibition on routine fund allocations unless benefits are cut or their payroll tax rates are hiked. They are too cowardly to do it in broad daylight, so they've decided to take cover under the House rules guise. The link further exposes GOP demonization of handicapped/disabled Americans. They must have gotten bored with beating up on the poor and immigrants. "Empathy," GOP style. ...
