[QUOTE="bacha29, post: 5717345, member: 58386"] Ok. so let's do the math. If you were a registered Democrat in 1978 today you would be at the minimum 63 years old. That means that you are either currently or soon will be drawing old age benefits from Democrat sponsored and passed legislation. Now if the Democratic party and the legislation it supports is in your opinion so contrary to the best interest of the nation as a whole then why would you apply for those benefits ? You don't have to apply for those benefits if as a matter of principle you are opposed to them. And don't give me that "I paid into it" BS. Before you could draw benefits it first required legislation that was passed despite heavy GOP opposition. Even in light of that fact you still don't have to apply for benefits. Now look. BOTH parties have extremist elements on it's fringes. The legislation they push very seldom even makes it to committee let alone get out of it. The thing I've noticed about you people is that you never discuss things from a legislative perspective. Instead all you do is attack political figures who don't look exactly like you do, practice the same religion as you do, have the same sexual preferences you have or whose general overall pattern of living is not an exact duplicate of your own. Thanks to the speed and convenience of international air travel and a global economy America's diversification as a nation is a pattern that will not reverse itself. [/QUOTE]
