Eaglesmack get serious I am more left than right actually but when the left goes
off the deep end I have no intention of going with them same for the right. I do
believe there must be a balance in politics and when the right self destructs I
don't follow them either. To suggest I would belong to the Tea Party is laughable
For example I support Government health care one hundred percent but I also
support the idea the plan has to be paid for not just now but down the road and all
too often that does not happen. I also believe the social safety net is an investment
but I do not support abuse of the system and safeguards have to be built in.
All too often programs are done on a wing and a prayer, its not the program that is
a bad idea its how it's administered that is the problem.
Do I believe people must be accountable Absolutely. The real left believes that too.
Tommy Douglas in Saskatchewan brought in most of Canada's social program ideas.
He also knew how they were going to pay for it. What happens to the programs is,
instead of being for people they end up being about short term gain for the party in
power. As for the Tea Party they are for gutting the system as we know it and that
is not the best policy either..
