Many people have asked me what political party I support. Well, that is a tough question because on some issues I tend to lean towards the liberal side and others I tend to lean towards the conservative side. So, I will let you be the judge of what party I should belong to. The following are my views on hot topics in today's society.
1. The Death Penalty - I'm all for it. In fact, I also believe that this life without the possibility of parole should be done away with and converted to the death penalty. If you did something bad enough to spend the rest of your days in prison, you deserve to get whacked.
2. Same Sex Marriage - I could care less. If two gay dudes get married it doesn't mean my wife and I are any less married.
3. Guns - The 2nd amendment says it all. I absolutely loath anti-gun pussies who are always spouting off this "guns kill people" bullshit. Guns are inanimate objects as are the bullets you put in them. Left alone they do nothing. It is the person who picks the gun up, loads it and fires it that is to hold the responsibility. We do not need to outlaw firearms. We need to get rid of dumb asses and bottom feeders. For every tear-jerking story you show me about some innocent person being shot and killed, I can show you another where a law abiding citizen used a gun to protect themselves or another innocent person. If you are anti-gun, you merely lack the backbone to protect your household and loved ones at any cost.
4. Legalizing Drugs - I have mixed feelings on this. Harsher drugs like crack, meth, heroine and so on should stay illegal in my opinion. Marijuana on the other hand, It isn't any worse than drinking alcohol and I have never heard of anyone over dosing on weed. Legalize it, control it and tax it like alcohol.
5. Abortion - I am not a big fan of abortion unless there are some extraordinary medical circumstances involved. However, I also believe very deeply in minding your own fucking business. If aborting a fetus is murder and is truly a sin, then you will have to answer to god for that, not me or anyone else.
6. Welfare - I have a real problem with the current welfare system as well as the "entitlement" mind set it has cultivated in our society. Too many people actually feel as if they deserve to be taken care of by society with out contributing anything to society. Furthermore, the government is taking my money and giving it to people I don't know. Now, if it's a single parent who got laid off and is in real bad need of help .... that's fine. I got no problem helping out someone like that. But, if it's some lazy fuck who wouldn't get a job if there were plenty for everyone or some lazy bitch who gets knocked up all the time and pops out a new unit just so she don't have to work ..... fuck them. Kick their asses out on the street and let them starve. I used to deliver pizzas for a living. We had several public housing projects in our delivery area. Many times I would deliver to apartments there and the tenants would bitch about not having enough money and wishing they could find a job. I would tell them that our pizza shop was hiring just to see what kind of response I would get back. Nine times out of ten the response would be something like "Oh hell no. I'm not working some bullshit pizza job." This always pissed me off because basically what they were saying was that they had no problem living off of my tax money that I busted my ass to earn, but me and my job were beneath them. Fuck these people. They need to be kicked to the curb to fend for themselves.
7. Prostitution - This is a subject that never made any sense to me. Providing you are 18 or older and anyone else involved is also 18 or older, you can give sex away for free anytime you want. Also, providing that you are 18 or older, you can be paid to perform in adult movies. So why the hell is prostitution illegal? Use the Nevada system as a model and legalize it everywhere.
8. 21 For Everyone - I realize the drinking age is at 21 because the government wants to keep alcohol away from high school students and at 18 many are still in school. However, I believe that, at the age of 18, if you are mature enough to vote and elect our public officials and you are mature enough to join the armed forces where you have the possibility of taking a human life or being killed yourself ...... you are mature enough to drink a beer.
9. Illegal immigrants - I don't care how old they are, where they come from, how long they've been here, how many children they gave birth to here ........ send them back to where they came from. We have a struggling economy and a lot of other problems with our own people. We do not need millions of illegals flooding the country to add to any already out of hand problems. Secure our borders 100% with fences, troops and any support the troops need.
10. Policing The World - Stop doing it. I agree with Ron Paul on this one. Pull our people back home. Close down our overseas military basis and consulates. We have problems here at home that need addressed and need everyone back here to get them fixed. As far as the rest of the world goes, we cannot play "big brother" to everyone. They're just going to have to stand up and take care of their own business.
11. Socialized Medicine - Horrible idea. This is a capitalist society. If you want socialized programs where the government tries to take care of everyone, then move to Europe. Enjoy the financial collapse and the hyper inflation.
12. Social Security - It should be there when you need it and it should not take forever to get it. Social Security is not a welfare program. It is a program where you pay in while you work and then when you retire or get sick and have to stop working, the government pays you your money back. Individuals who are not legal citizens or have never worked to pay into the system should not ever get a penny from it or any of it's affiliate programs.
13. SSI compensation - SSI is often confused with Social Security Retirement benefits or Social Security Disability benefits. This is not correct. SSI stands for Supplemental Security Income and is intended for aged or medically impaired people who have little to no income. Like the reality of it or not, it is another welfare program. It is a program I have mixed feelings about. On one hand I believe elderly people or those who have honest medical problems and cannot work need some help because being old or disabled does not make you any less of a person. However, like many other government programs, SSI has became too watered down and too exploited over the years. It has went from providing help to people with problems like being in a wheel chair, having epilepsy, having a serious heart condition, being mentally retarded and so on to providing help to people who have bad teeth, can't read, claim to be bi-polar and a lot of other nonsense. And that is no exaggeration either. My wife used to live next to a guy who got SSI because he couldn't read. My school of thought on that is .................. you don't need teeth to work, hooked on phonics is cheaper than handing out a $600 a month free check and bi-polar is bullshit. Everyone, to some degree, is bi-polar. You feel great one day and maybe the next day you're in a pissy mood and feel like kicking someone. Stop using it as an excuse and get a fucking job. The SSI program needs to be audited and greatly over hauled.
14. Labor Unions - I'm sure my opinion on this subject will piss of a lot of people. Labor unions were formed decades ago when workers were forced to work extremely long hours for very low pay in facilities that were unsafe at best. In today's society, we have agencies on federal, state and local levels that ensure work place safety along with fair work hours and minimum wage standards. Labor unions are no longer needed. All they do in the world today is drive up the prices of goods and services to consumers. I have experience working with unions in the construction industry and can tell you with a clear conscience that when you compare a union crew to a non-union crew ......... the non-union crew will finish the job quicker, at a lower cost and with a better quality of work.
