Politics: Left, Right, and Center National, state, regional, and local politics. Who's doing what to whom, and what you can do about it. How-to-get-action messages are encouraged. "How the government fucked up my life" stories are encouraged. Sharing new methods for cheating on taxes is encouraged. Sample "letters to congresscritters" are encouraged. Apathy and "I can't do anything" posts are discouraged. Left, right, centrist, or any other form of political-economic systems are all up for discussion. Be prepared to defend yourself, or at least have a good line of bullshit ready. Extensive quoting of economists and philosophers is frowned upon. We want to hear what YOU have to say, not what some constipated, impotent, dead guy dreamt up while suffering from the DT's over a hundred years ago thought.

Thumbs down Ron Paul sucks balls

Actually, I like him alot. He seems to be the most principled, honest and uncorrupted of the candidates.

However, he would be opposed to any sort of federal project to develop a new energy source which is the single most important thing the world needs.

At the very least there need to be massive penalties for coal and oil burning power plants to encourage the building of nuclear power plants and other alternate power plants. Once again, he would never do this.

He has too much faith in the free market. I usually do too, but the blind forces of the free market cannot solve the energy crisis.

Why Kucinich? Because he's a 9/11 idiot like you, SWNigger?

I like Ron Paul. He won't even make a showing, but he's a cool candidate. I think that he may be right on alternative energy- much of what we're hearing about now that people want worked on more (Biodiesel, hydrogen, etc) sounds flowery on the surface but is a load of BS if you look at it closely.

I mean, we have the most coal in the world... and look what South Africa does with coal. We could emulate that.

All the fossil fuels are dead ends. We need something that doesn't depend on them at all.

Whether Biofuels like Ethanol will actually produce more energy than it takes to make them, I'm not sure about. It is still a matter of controversy: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethanol...energy_balance

He would remove all the bullshit you have to go through to start a nuclear power plant.

in a free market society, if there is sufficient demand, and sufficient payoff, then someone will supply "alternative" hippy energy. there is no flaw. for the time being, there is no incentive to produce it, other than forced government authoritarian bullshit. the government needs to get out of most things its currently involved in. at least 90% of regulations should be repealed.

Did you ever consider that by the time the alternative energy becomes profitable it will already be too late?
