America's Welfare State fails

[Valmy]

I'm not sure everyone would consider it a priority...unless we are defining everyone very narrowly.

Not everybody would consider elimination of poverty and guaranteeing high levels of employment a high priority?  Sounds like a winning political legacy to me.

[Valmy]

If the state hires all unemployed people you have no unemployment.

Again if that plan worked everybody would be doing it.  But somehow it has always proven to be rather unsustainable.

Garbon is a Republican.

When I'm speaking about myself, I think I'd make that clear. I was thinking that everyone encompasses a lot of nations on Earth.

It does indeed.  But more telling is your view of what most people on the face of the earth would think.

Telling of my negativity? Sure but then that's always been a given.

I choose to believe that there once was a young garbon full of hope and joy and good feelings, before life so cruelly beat those sentiments out of him.

[garbon]

Now, no. Negativity doesn't mean I don't have joy and good feelings.

Could have fooled me.
