What makes arguing with liberals so frustrating : D

[jelly]

I see this over and over. Conservatives are for limited government. Just because we say we don't want government doing things where government is inept, counterproductive, wasteful or whatever, does not mean that we should shut it down totally.

Yes, we do need roads, bridges, power stations, motorways, jails, schools, the military, standard weights and measures, courts, etc etc. But not every aspect of the country's infrastructure needs to fall under the remit or stewardship of the government. The conservative view is that the government should be a useful servant of the people's needs. However, you give it too much money, power, authority it becomes the worst kind of master.

Plenty of proper liberals are wary of big centralised government and bureaucrcies and too much state authority. Plenty of liberals don't think much of socialism.

[jelly]

But those black sheep among the left who don't think much of socialism (or haven't yet been assimilated) are far outweighed by their 'comrades' who subscribe to and espouse its destructive ideology. And I disagree, in that from my experience most "proper liberals" (whatever that entails) do lean towards a big, all-powerful centralised government.

Is this where I say jelly is BBW?

[StraferJack]

Even if it isn't.

I am almost certain that "jelly" is a troll of some kind.

A Trolley?

[jelly]

Then you'd be wrong. Unless your definition of a troll is someone who can't get their head 'round the tried and failed ideology liberals shove in everyone's faces.

[Otta]

So anyway, which political party are supposed to be liberal these days?

Jelly

Define your terms. Yours is an American misuse of the term 'liberal.' I fear you have tried and failed.

Liberals are not necessarily lefties. Liberals don't believe in big government. I'd suggest you get a better understanding of Liberalism before trying to start such a debate. At the moment it's all a bit silly.

I'm just waiting for the use of 'libtards'.

Is this where i say "jelly is Rick Channing" even if it isn't.

[woodrot]

if the "liberals " like socialism so much, then why dont they go and live in North Korea?

[Loz]

If Liberals like liberalism so much, then why don't they go live in Liberia? Eh?
