Answer 1

Fascist, apparently. People cannot advance in the system of evolution if we keep reproducing with other human beings who have certain physical disorders. The solution? Keep a strict law against sexual activity between the disordered and the originals. The disordered die out, and the human population continues its evolutionary trek. Survival of the fittest.

Answer 2

Some days a communist and some days a capitalist depending on how broke I am that day . Would hope no one could ever say I was a facist but probably have rubbed a couple people that way. I'm also in a union so I guess I've got my socialist side too. Just a political mutt I guess.

Answer 3

I am an Anarcho-Capitalist(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anarcho_capitalist) out of principle and an Anarcho-Capitalist or Libertarian (haven't decided yet) in practicality.


I think that belief in restriction for the common good (although most of the time admirable) is counter-productive to our individual freedoms (and the common good) both principly and practically.

It is to say (principly) that others own you(though they rarely use those words) (thus you Life, your Liberty, and your Property) more than you do. If individuals do not own themselves, then nobody owns anything.

This is not just in the context of ownership of money or land. This is also in the context of your right to life and to be free. How can I own you more than you own yourself? This is a violation of your rights. Whether it is another individual (me) or a thousand (society).

Practically, there is nothing that spreads more peace and prosperity than freedom. Individual freedom.


In principle, I am an an-cap because I believe that our rights (Life, Liberty, Property) will be infringed on by any State (no matter how small) because that is the very nature of the State.

In any effort to govern us (even democratically, even for our own safety) infringes on our rights. Whether it be economic or social, it is still restrictive.

The implementation of any State (for any cause) is a violation of our rights (though some may believe it is a necessary violation, I still believe that it is a violation nonetheless).

Because I believe that the protection of our rights is the most important (and only) responsibility of any legal system we create, this system and a State cannot co-exist. Even the existence of a State to enforce this system is counter-productive to the goal of the system.

Therefore, the only alternative (that does not go against the PRINCIPLES of freedom) is voluntary action/exchange: free market. This is not an argument in favor of greed, or favoring the rich. This is an argument in favor of the only thing which truly does not violate your rights.

Many are afraid of the free market because of big business. I ask you this: why do you run to the State, the biggest business of all and the only MONOPOLY ON certain industries, most importantly FORCE ?


Practically: Can the free market avoid corruption? No.an it avoid it more than the state? I think so. Limiting the centrality of control (and the monopoly on force) also limits the capability of what the corrupted can do. This is why I am slightly still Libertarian as far as practicality is concerned.

Answer 4

between capitalist and socialist... much like America... except I'm a little more socialist... so much like Sweden...

I think there are aspects of a capitalist society that are great, but some aspects need socialism... capitalism needs some checks... it abuses workers if there are no checks...

I mean that's why socialism was created... the rampant abuse of the working class...

Answer 5

Honestly *and this will sound horrible* I'm communist. When the country is doing well, everyone is doing well. Of course, it's like affirmative action... GREAT on paper... implementation, however, has never been done correctly. I believe a country should work to better itself as a whole before going for the individuals. Of course, this is only in a perfect world, with no corrupt people.

Answer 6

I am a capitalist.

By first ensuring the success of our nation, we have a chance at caring for the less fortunate among us. Think of it this way, the rich man can pay for the poor man's meal even if he doesn't like him. But a poor man cannot support his neighbor even if they are best friends. Charity, giving back to one's community stems from success.

We need to provide justice and protect freedom. But once we presume to modify the outcome of a fair and just process, we are no longer just.

Answer 7

I'm a capitalist because I believe the sweat from my brow will provide all that is needed for me and my family and I won't have to come to you for a loaf of bread.

I believe those that take the risk should enjoy the profit from that risk.

I believe, give a man a fish feed him for a day teach that man to fish feed him for a lifetime.

I've never cashed a paycheck from a poor man.

Answer 8

I'm a human being because I was born like that!!! and a proud American.. that will make me a Capitalist.. If you check the history it will tell you that all of the other have fail.. Good luck!!

Answer 9

Moderate, because like all candidates, they say they are Democrat or Republican, everyone is Moderate. You cannot wholeheartedly agree with what everyone has to say, so I chose to be moderate because you're in the middle. I only agree with the issues and views the candidates are fighting for, no matter what party, man or woman, any race, it's about the issues.

Answer 10

This is only in response to that one fascist. My oldest son has CP and it's not hereditary. He was born premature. They will NOT die out, and my son has every right to procreate like the rest of us.
