  1. You setup the rules so "losing" lays at the feet of each person, as much as possible. There is nothing more fair. Like I said before I'm not against safety nets for those who truly need it. Fix the out of control spending, first and foremost. Cuts are necessary, and the same economists who say cuts hurt, are the same Keynesian economists that have thrown this country's value, and economy in the shitter. The same economists that decided the Fed backing houses for everyone regardless of credit was a great idea. The same economists that think the Fed backing everyones college loans is a great idea. These men are charlatans, and thieves, and they will always tell you shrinking the government, and cutting federal spending will be "catastrophic to society" because their coffers empty when the government gets less of your cash.

     

    No one should be taxed more than 17% effective, or get rid of the income tax altogether, and move to the Fairtax consumption tax.

  2. I agree with most of your suggestions on austerity, just not now. Every percent of government spending pulled out of the economy causes an equal contraction in GDP. Now is not the time to institute austerity. If any lesson from the European financial crisis can be learned it is that.

     

    A flat tax is, by nature regressive. Meaning it impacts poor people far more dramatically than the rich. A flat tax would put immenely more pressure on the middle class. As for the poor, it would create far more dependency on social safety nets or, as some conservatives would have it, old people dying on the streets.

     

    I'm not saying it is greedy to complain about taxes, I'm saying it's naive.

     

    I know we'd disagree, but if we ever get out to a meet or C&C, I'd like to pick your brain, and exchange actual views outside of the forum construct.

     

    I'm not saying it is greedy to complain about taxes, I'm saying it's naive.

     

    I would argue not voicing your displeasure about unfair taxes, and failing to act makes one naive about the good nature of the body attached to the hand in your pocket.

  3. You know what's fair? Taxing every single person at the same rate. You know what's not fair, the bullshit we have. Yet progressives always bitch about other people not paying their "fair share". As if the same percentage of more income is somehow less. Progressives love to tell people how greedy they're being while spending other people's money.

     

    The government is huge, and wasteful. Please folks, stop pretending like we wouldn't have streets, or clean water if we correct obvious, heinous, errors in our taxes, and spending.

     

    Drug War and prohibition. End it. DEA gone. Hundreds of thousands of court cases, gone. Millions of jailed and will-be jailed, non-violent drug offenders not burdening the tax-payer. Less prisons needed, and all of the overhead associated. There's a trillion dollars.

     

    Major reform of welfare, and all entitlements. Safety nets for those who absolutely need them, otherwise severely limited length of benefit. No more generations of welfare abusers.

     

    Close most if not all foreign military bases, bring troops home, and spend on actual defense. Troops can guard the borders, fucking Canadians.

     

    Hold politicians that vote themselves raises, and lifetime security detail accountable for not passing a fucking budget in years.

  4. Not sure I can accommodate the amount of possible shooters at my place and in the summer with all the fields planted it really limits where I can shoot. Plus Ive heard briar is badass.

     

    Also, gives us somewhere to cruise to. Unless someone has kickass property and doesn't mind a bunch of strangers.

     

    Sooo your saying you want to do a drive by shooting?

     

    :lol:

     

    :fuuuu:

     

    I said cruise then shoot, not and shoot. Though now I'm rethinking that. Cruise ... and shoot eh?

  5. She doesn't care what I buy.

     

    More gun porn.....

    :megusta:

     

    Has CR ever had a cruise then shoot day? Because do want.

  6. As pure carry pistols, it's hard to complain about either of the LC guns. I love my LCP when I need to pocket carry. I don't particularly enjoy shooting it, but for CCW purposes, comfort>enjoyment. Buy another handgun for range time. If you want range time, and carry, I'd go G26/19, or SR9C, or MP9C/Shield.
