    Actually it's not the poor in this country that get too much help. It's old rich people--medicare. But Asher thinks they are the same thing, and I suppose I am indulging him.

      You don't even know your own arguments. Every time gay marriage comes up, you wax poetically about how "technically it is not a civil right". Even in this thread it's come up again.

      What defines what civil rights are in your country?

        It's sad if you think this is funny and/or insightful.

        Seriously, HC. You're making me very sad. You're not a dumb guy, you're just an insensitive *******.

        "150% of what they need" - are you meaning to tell me that you think poor people in the US get way more than what they need? You're such a sheltered *****. Or was this just a ridiculously pathetic hypothetical statement, an example of you making, in your words, "actual intelligent arguments".

          It's not a civil right because it's not essential to our political and economic freedom.

              So the old folks should do what when they get ill? Die quietly? Ever get the feeling you're not helping your empathic image any?

                Lots of old people aren't rich. Giving everyone a crappy voucher doesn't just cut benefits for the rich. The rich would probably care the least.

                  I'm not telling Slowwhand to shoot himself, I'm just warning him that if he's planning on shooting himself then he's inevitably going to **** it up the first few times.

                  But I was being facetious, of course - I'm assuming that he's stocking up on guns so he can shoot wetbacks.

                    What about black people being able to enter movie theaters through the same entrance and sit at the same lunch counters? At what point does equal rights stop being "essential"?

                      As soon as it becomes about Jews or Catholics, HC would be all over it. Blacks or gays, who the **** cares? Not essential til it affects him.

                          That pretty obviously falls under economic freedom.

                            If marriage is an imaginary civil right, then anti-miscegenation laws should have been ruled as being constitutional.

                              The sex of one's chosen partner in marriage is relevant, the colour of ones skin is not.

                                That's subjective. Some people think "economic freedom" means being able to not let blacks eat at your restaurant.
