Askville: politics
"Is Government the Solution, or Is It the Problem? Or What?"
I'm reduced to typing one-handed for now. Political discussion isn't worth the hassle and time, particularly as I'm quite sure that nobody's mind is open on this subject.
Maybe when I'm out of this sling...but even so, I'm starting to believe that life is too short to waste any of it on pointless argument.
Most "political" argument is really religious argument. To right-wingers, government is the Devil - period. It's the root of all evil. This is the core of their faith. As such, it is not open to question.
What's the point in arguing with fanatics? What could it possibly accomplish, other than frustration?
