10 Political Philosophy Questions for Deprave, answered in one place for everyone. Please feel free to answer them yourself and also leave comments. Thank You.


1. Do you think that there should be a tax increase for American's making over $250,000 a year?


Not unless they are government employees, at which point they should be taxed at a rate of 100%. :)

2. Do you think there should be a tax increase for the upper class?


Violence is never the answer, no amount will solve our social problems no matter who the target is. No I don't think anyone should be taxed, certainly not differently from other people.

3. Do you think that there should be more government transparency?

Yes of course but they will not have it that way, never have, and never will..This "government transparency" is something completely fictional.

4. Do you think that 9/11 was an "inside job" or that we are to blame.


Indirectly certainly, perhaps our government, but not our people or the victims who largely understand again that violence is not the answer.(at least I hope) As far as directly, I am not sure its necessary to even go there, its not at all necessary to go into minor details. I think its likely someone conspired it and further likely that they work for a government since all governments are not made up of ethical people generally. Regardless I blame all immoral and irrational governments for being either directly or indirectly responsible and for thinking violence is the answer, essentially yes..I blame the mafias.

5. Because you don't believe that the wealthiest should be taxed more, does that mean that you believe that corporations are people or in "trickle down" economic theory?


Of course not, while these could be connected and they tend to be within corrupt republican rhetoric, with me as with many other they are not. I don't think anyone really deep down believes that Pfizer or Monsanto is a person or that they deserve free speech. This is part of the way they divide us, both the Democrats and Republicans into thinking there is these two factions when there really isn't. Glenn Beck and Rush maybe two of the exceptions.

6. If you had one suggestion to solve the current economic conditions what would it be?


Politicians need to put their guns down.

7.Who would you like to see win the 2012 presidential race?

The majority of the people I.E No politicians. I was rooting for Dr Paul because I felt this would be the people winning and it still would be. because of the simple fact that he shared many of our views although some views some couldn't subscribe to especially the religious.... but as a Radical and a Revolutionary I feel he has failed by pandering to the center trying to get inside. I do have my other qualms, but the main thing I feel is that radicals and revolutionaries do not speak this language called "compromise" which Rand recently firmly illustrated as the language that would be used with this campaign, I knew this all along and I felt maybe it could work but we see there is no place for radicals and revolutionaries among the authoritarians, the corruption runs too deep. I will cast my vote for Gary Johnson because I feel he is the best to represent the people against the authoritarians but I still feel he is just another politician.

8. What do you think about Koney 2012?

Its a scam.

9 What about treyvon martin?

Another scam.

10. And what do you think about global warming?

I think global warming is scientifically factual but I think that politicians try to use this to take our money as usual, so yes I think global warming is essentially a scam although I am well aware there is some scientific evidence that merrits its existence, I do not believe giving money to Al Gore is a good way to alleviate Global Warming.
 
deprave, what do you think might occur if instead of being enticed and brainwashed by the importance of politics, and the delusions of freedom and self gratification belonging to a particular political ideology brings to those entranced by such ideologies

what if folk decided in their masses not to endorse or empower any mainstream political movement by declining to vote
when voting day comes round just stay at home and have a nice relaxing shit or something productive like that

without a mandate to control the population via the electoral process what would happen ?
i have no idea what would happen, i know it has never happened before, in recent history or my life time

perhaps a change would be good

it does seem logical that not voting would send the strongest message possible under this system of democracy (demoncrazy) lol
it is basically saying none of you are any good you better shape up
instead of thinking all of the political parties are pretty bad but still choosing the least damaging or the guy they think will save them a little on tax
because folk feel obliged to take part in the system

peace

It does seem that way but no I don't think this would work. Even with a mass demonstration unfortunately, and regardless their fake votes would still be counted. You are overlooking the fact that more than 80% already demonstrate this for years but it has been in vain. I think that a strong third party would serve this purpose best as far as not voting vs voting third party. Their media will always tell the story as they want it to be told. Those who control the past, control the future, those who control the present control the past. With many voting third party a lot of their corruption would be exposed, like it or not, it would happen naturally, even should they control the media, in this time we have our free press - "The Internet".

Is that a question?
 
How can you say "violence is never the answer" ?.....I could cite hundreds of instances where violence was the answer, and the only answer...And what "scam" is the travyon Martin case"

Hello,

Violence is never the answer unless maybe its a counter to violence(defense) then perhaps yes, please indulge us. The scam about the travyon martin case is the fact that they are talking about it and making it to divide us, first and foremost people are murdered everyday or worse and they don't spend 20 seconds on it, much more gruesome events take place every single day. Secondly, the fact that politicians are even commenting on this is further indication that it is a scam.

General Rule of thumb, if the mainstream media is talking about something a lot, you can bet your ass its some kind of scam. Corporate media is out for ratings and to make money, they are basically trolling us.

General Rule of thumb, when politicians move their lips, you can bet your ass its some kind of scam. Politicians are out to get re-elected, in order to do that, they need to make money, they are basically trolling us.
 
I will just name a few..Libya revolts..The American revolution..world war I and II..Ever been to county jail or prison? You better get violent or be content with being a punk..My brother in law was getting out of hand and smacking my sis around, beat that dudes ass good, knocked 3 teeth out..no problems since..You can prtest and complain all day long but for the most part things do not change until people get violent, sad but true...and I do not think the martin case is splitting the country at all..I would guess 75% think Zimm is a douche bag that needs to be convicted.

funny as hell you start out with Libiya,,,but yes these are all self-defense really...cept parts of world war I when violence wasn't nessecary to resolve things.....point being...Violence is never the answer as its not really what solved these things necessarily and a lot changes without violence.

I don't know the in depth details of the Martin because I don't care enough to follow anything such as this were the media talks about it non-stop, I realize people are just being trolled. It is something the media repeats day in and day out so its obviously a scam to make money. Innocent people get killed constantly, probably thousands of them since this happened in this country alone, they don't even give one a nod and they talk about this all day because its controversial and it gets them ratings, what makes something controversial? When it DIVIDES PEOPLE. Therefore Dividing us makes them money. What makes politicians money?!?!? DING DING YOU GOT IT! DIVIDING US!
 
Agreed that the media and ALL politicians are scumbags, what makes the martin case different is that "stand your ground" law...and that police rarely react like this Martin case..martins daddy gets the police chief and the D.A. to meet in the middle of night..they both step down weeks later and one is ultimately fired. The 911 calls ...Race is a great way to distract the average joe from the facts...look at the gays marrying and abortion bills ..they are nothing but a smokescreen to distract people from real issues.
 
Corruption , Greed ..our bloated defense budget...lobbyists destroying this country..Marijuana..Prescription drug epidemic created by doctors..all the genetically modified food..cancer rates soaring every year..Politicians selling out their own country for their own personal greed..hundreds of other things...Blame the Dumb Dems for this mess...no! now blame the retarded republicans! ...smoke screen..they both suck and are controlled by the same people.

Oh so great your telling me this is associated with some legislation...Lol even more evidence...Is everyone rallying together to go against this legislation and/or root for it now or a new related bill? Whats hidden on that bill or the new bill?

this one is real simple - the fewer people that vote the more chance there is that someone no one wants gains power. Republicans know that the fewer people that vote the better their chances at winning - hence voter ID, purging and caging.

so...... you're a fan of voter fraud? believe it or not, dems can win an election without having to cheat, not sure why showing an ID isn't a good idea. (as an fyi, to vote in the democratic primary in MI you had to show ID and nobody complained, no reason to cheat in that one)

MLK would disagree.

there is no evidence and no proof of widespread voter fraud in the United States. SCOTUS found that in a single state, as many as 40,000 legitimate voters might be disenfranchised because of Voter ID laws. This is all a set up by ALEC in order to trim the vote, and you seem to be buying it cuase it sounds so reasonable, I mean, you have to show ID for everything right? Except that most of what you have to show ID for - are not rights.
 
I feel similar on many issues there.


  • 1. Do you think that there should be a tax increase for American's making over $250,000 a year?
    I'm not really sure. IDK know how those people are currently being taxed or what kind of increase we are talking about, but it seems unfair to me to charge one person disproportionatly than another. If taxes were the same % for everyone than they would still pay more money but equal to anybody else. That is a lot of money though and probably multiple times the national average. IMHO people who make that much money can afford to pay more taxes and still live a very comfortable life while the lower class people are struggling to stay alive.

    2. Do you think there should be a tax increase for the upper class?
    I feel that we would be better off heavily taxing luxury items than income. That way the people who spend their money on necessities aren't constantly screwed. People with lots of money are always going to buy expensive items like automobiles, recreational vehicles, property, etc. Otherwise what's the point of making money?

    3. Do you think that there should be more government transparency?
    Yes of course but they will not have it that way, never have, and never will..This "government transparency" is something completely fictional.

    ^ I will add that obviously full transparency would threaten our national security so I understand some secrecy. It's a catch 22 but they definitely abuse the system. Now when you have multiple government's representatives meeting in secrecy the national security excuse is no longer plausible. It's unacceptable period.

    4. Do you think that 9/11 was an "inside job" or that we are to blame.

    Absolutely. I no longer believe many allegations that I once thought to be truth, but overall I have always felt they were responsible. Who gained from the attacks? The American government, oil tycoons, and industries that profit from war. Maybe the Taliban or Al-queda or whatever the fuck they are got a ton of publicity but I don't honestly believe these organizations could have planned, funded and most of all carried out these attacks without help. It is common knowledge that there was evidence and warnings of the attacks before Sept. 11 and even government documents where military advisers suggested a terrorist attack to gain favor for war. Crashing planes into buildings like the WTC was one of their ideas. Before 9/11 nobody wanted war, after 9/11 thousands of recruits signed up. All this, yet officials claim nobody could have forseen an attack using jetliners as weapons of mass destruction. That's funny cuz the goddamn x files had a show were this exact scenario played out before the attacks. This kind of manipulation has been going on for decades and even centuries. From Hitler burning down their own buildings and blaming other countries to America claiming that Pearl Harbor was unprovoked and unexpected. Even if these terrorist organizations did act on their own and Bin Laden was behind these attacks, to simply murder him and not give him a trial is appauling and unamerican to me.

    5. Because you don't believe that the wealthiest should be taxed more, does that mean that you believe that corporations are people or in "trickle down" economic theory?

    Most people will think I'm off my rocker, but I think there should be some sort of ceiling for what a single person could possess. Then you could be wealthy but at some point they would be forced to share the money with the other employees or expand their business thus creating new jobs.

      • WTF does one person do with 10 billion dollars anyways?As it stands,t

    • hey are making profits off the backs of hard-working people everywhere and no matter how many businesses they start or employees they hire, in the end the majority of the money goes into their own pockets. How is money "trickling down" if those people are becoming more and more wealthy? It doesn't add up because they aren't creating new money so obviously someone else has to lose theirs in order for them to continue to profit.

    6. If you had one suggestion to solve the current economic conditions what would it be?

    Take away the Federal Reserve. We cannot get out of debt when every dollar we print has an interest rate. It's like slavery because eventually someone else is going to own us, or even worse our children/grandchildren.

    7.Who would you like to see win the 2012 presidential race?
    I don't really give a shit. Same shit different election. They all speak through forked tongues and until we hold politicians accountable for their promises, you don't know what your really getting until their in office. I think Obama will win because change is too scary. Why put a new guy in when one guy already has 4 years experience? That's the way it's been my whole life. Plus the other candidates seem to suck ass anyways.

    8. What do you think about Koney 2012?

    I don't follow politics. It seems they use legal and political jargon to confuse and bore the crap out of the average Joe to keep them at bay. Plus, the media to me is like propaganda. Who is telling you the truth? What is their agenda? Why are we talking about irrelevant issues all the time? Who cares who got a blowjob and which celebrity has cellulite? I can't even stand to watch the news because they constantly have to add "their" opinions on everything. You read off a fucking screen, who's telling you what to believe?
    • How about some unbiased news based on facts and nothing else?

    9 What about treyvon martin?
    Refer to ? #8.

    10. And what do you think about global warming?
    Maybe global warming is true, but even if it is, that doesn't mean that we are responsible for that. The Earth's temperature has been changing long before human's stepped foot on this planet. You first would have to compare the change in temperature to the change in temperature that is natural. Regardless of whether man made global warming is happening, the solutions have to start with businesses. I just buy the plastic water bottles, I don't make them. I just put gas in my car, I don't extract oil or refine the shit. I could stop driving and using plastics for the rest of my life and it wouldn't change anything. Someone should have the foresight to realize that natural resources are not infinite and that cutting down trees, harvesting/transporting/burning fuels is a slippery slope. That's what I feel the government should be doing, making sure our country and the rest of the world preserve what we have. It's about sustainability; utilize all the solar, wind, hydro and other clean energy sources and plant a tree for every one you cut. You don't see perpetual harvest growers running out of personal weed do you?
 
this one is real simple - the fewer people that vote the more chance there is that someone no one wants gains power. Republicans know that the fewer people that vote the better their chances at winning - hence voter ID, purging and caging.

You have missed the very nature of the issue "i do not want any of them"
perhaps you enjoy being governed , you are free to feel that way

whichever one of them gets in, gets in because people like you vote for them
unless you believe deprave who has already suggested that "fake votes" exist

by voting you are giving away your rights as an individual to be governed by majority rule
if you feel you need looking after and being told what is right and wrong that's great carry on voting
i do not share this view

peace :)
 
deprave, what do you think might occur if instead of being enticed and brainwashed by the importance of politics, and the delusions of freedom and self gratification belonging to a particular political ideology brings to those entranced by such ideologies

Is it a statement?
