What's illogical about that? Why do you hate individual liberty so much?


I think your a bit mixed up.

surrendering your freedom to the EPA or any other government agency is the definition of lost freedom.

indeed, the govt has all the guns, gavels, and legislative power -- so you really have no say anyway.

now the nail is in the coffin when they will soon regulate water as a pollutant to be managed by government alone.

note that since the EPA was created -- this CO2 scare has spun out of control -- it is too late to correct.

Hence, the EPA was created to address this kind of eventuality and it has proven utterly incapable of doing anything about it either at home or abroad.

in sum, you have simply surrendered what little economic freedoms you have to a central authority in washington that cares little about you -- unless you happen to be a lobbyist


Yeah...nope. You are still spewing bullshit. How I ever regarded you as a rational human being is beyond me.

Go troll and flame somewhere else.

grand naivete

the EPA tells mavoren that empowering it with greater regulatory authority and billions in funding will 'save lives'

and he believes it ??!!!

this is the definition of a good liberal.

just like the government will manage health care and reduce costs.

or initiate a war on poverty and today after trillions of dollars spent --- we have record number of people living in poverty.

yet if the government or some leftwing front group tells mavoren something ---- he will always believe.

he cant explain why in his own words -- he just parrots there propaganda like a good little liberal.

Funny I have posted myriad arguments debunking big government as corrupt and the best the liberal hoard have contributed is hominems and grammar lessons.

this is the internet dude.

you want to correct grammar -- apply at your local elementary school, not hear (sic).

Well, yes. Because the EPA is required by law to present their reports. If you disagree with their statistics, provide evidence.

I love how liberals go crazy over scientific facts

It is usually fun, but not as fun when the liberal hoard resorts to ad hominems and touting government sources to support the efficacy of government --- it is time to take a break.

later good little liberals -- remember we must create the mother of all monopolies with all the guns, gavels, and regulatory power ----big central government --- to protect us from the evil and all powerful private sector monopoly in the scary closet.

I saw him once peak out from a crack in the door -- the evil capitalist was wearing a sweater and he looked alot like bill gates, or was it steve jobs --- I couldnt tell cuz I was hiding under the covers.

Guys, let's face it: There's no reasoning with this OP. We might as well be speaking to a demented, potty-mouthed parrot or a disrespectful little brat.
Either way, it's useless. All we are doing is giving him the satisfaction of a response to his insulting, fallacious and dishonest bullshit.
If any of you is liberal or left-wing, the most self-respecting thing to do is get out of this thread, ignore him, and let him wallow in his delusional filth.
