[QUOTE="zubenelgenubi, post: 4579635, member: 63706"] I wasn't asking you to choose, I was asking for clarification. In your OP you state a very unbalanced, extreme, opinion of the United States being an "overpopulated cesspool". You support this by offering more highly subjective, overly simplistic and extremely generalized views about people sucking ass because they argue over what they watch on the morning news. You suggest that the only way that this might ever change is if half the population dies in some cataclysmic event. But then you change course and suggest that maybe we won't suck so much ass if we just focus on the simple pleasures of life, in contrast to fighting over the big picture ideas that we believe in. This doesn't seem to leave a lot of leeway for a balanced approach to life, enjoying the little things and caring about big picture political issues. Then you throw this out there: Then you act like I'm giving you an ultimatum because I point out the obvious contradictions in your own thoughts. How do you suggest we demand a better candidate? How do you suggest we come to a consensus on what a better candidate is? If you think America will be less of a cesspool if people spend more time at the beach, and less time engaged in debate over timely issues, then how, exactly, do we go about getting better representatives to choose from? You seem very conflicted. I am just trying to understand what it is you actually mean. [/QUOTE]
