You think it's OK that the richest 1% pay 95% of the taxes?
As for the poster....It's stupid but I would never punish someone for expessing their thoughts.
1st Amendment RIGHT.

Which amendment promises health care? :wink:
I do. We have the richest of the rich in this country with 37% of the worlds top 1% living here.

We don't need an amendment, we're about to do it. Thank all that is good.

Maybe that document ain't so special after all. I mean, come on! It had a good run, but certainly it's time for a change in light of the recent corruption and injustices. Revolution's on its way, sooner or later. :P

I was going to make a a rather long spiel about how foolish the joker poster is, but I couldn't help but a appreciate GP's point: Why so serious? So I'll keep it short. I know you haven't seen the Dark Knight, Freak, but Christopher Nolan's joker was an maniacal anarchist. Socialism is what Sweden does. Sweden is cool.

I just saw it a couple of weeks ago, BTW. Great performance by Ledger. I wasn't that impressed otherwise.

And I don't have a problem with changing the Constitution, but you're supposed to do that BEFORE you seize powers it doesn't give you. :wink:

What did Lincoln do that was tyrannical? I'm not defending him, I just have only a vague idea of who the hell he is (old president is about all I know). So many presidents, and since I don't even know a 10th of Canada'a past prime ministers it would be rude for me to know more about some other countries leaders!



Who was the president that tried to conquer Canada? How did he end up remembered?

Wrong era, but a little detail like that never stopped the fan-fic writers before. :wink:

Obama is compared to Hitler, as well as the Joker, during a DC march against the President. I feel really stupid to be an American these days.
