A place to discuss pro-conservative stuff

  1. Be excellent to each other. Civility, No Racism, No Bigotry, No Slurs, No calls to violences, No namecalling, All that good stuff, follow lemm.ee's rules, follow the rules of your instance, etc.

  2. We are a Pro-Conservative forum. Posts must have a clear pro-conservative, or anti left-wing bias. We are interested in promoting conservatism and discussing things that might get ignored elsewhere. All sources are acceptable, however reputable sources with a reputation for factual reporting are preferred.

  3. Dissent is allowed in the comments, but try to be constructive; if you do not agree, then provide a reason which is backed up by references or a reasonable alternative interpretation of the provided facts. That means the left wing is welcome to state their opinions, but please keep it in good faith.

A polite request, not a rule, if you feel the need to report a comment, please don't reply to it.

That’s a hard pass for me. I’d rather opt out of social security. It’s a ponzi scam. If the government had put that into a private account, I’d have millions of dollars in there.

Reasonable leftis get a bad rep when it comes to economics. When I read garbage like this, I am reminded that this is just a lie.

When the first "real" argument is to think of the Government as a business, you miss the point entirely.

The Government is not a business. And that is a good thing.

Not sure I even want to read further in, because it is, like always, just down the hill from there.

No wonder all the posts are downvoted so much, when this is the best that is offered.

Edit: Read further in. And spelling.

Do not recommend if you value critical analysis.
