    • HC and Reg are offspring of the 1% and seem destined to join the 1% ranks on their own. Their support for policies that favor the overlords over the masses is understandable.
      TMM, Dinodoc, Rah, and possibly 1JH are harder to explain.

      Never the less, I thank you for your willing obeisance to my superior wealth.

        I tend to support common sense.
        No, I did not steal that from somebody on Something Awful.

        • there's nothing common about sense.

            Not really. There's lot of reasons (interestingly, all bad). For example, some people tend to support policies that allow the rich and powerful to be awful people either in belief that they may have the opportunity to do it themselves or because they already are awful in their small ponds. Then there are those who are just maliciously stupid. These are the people who lost their jobs and demand that others (particularly public sector workers) lose jobs as well.

            • So everyone that disagrees with you are either evil or stupid. Your tolerance is impressive.

              • No, I said some of them are either evil or stupid, but all of them are bad.

                • Again, if someone doesn't accept what you consider the absolute truth they are necessarily bad, Sorry, I can't buy that. I see that as not respecting those that are different.

                  But yes, after saying all that, some of them are evil or stupid but that can be said for either side

                  • Yes, and everyone lies, which makes you a liar.

                        I favor policies that improve outcomes for all people, I'm not really worried about myself. Obama can pass whatever laws he likes--I'm highly skilled, highly trained and--for my age--highly experienced in a rapidly growing industry where talent is very short in supply. I'm not going to have any trouble earning lots of money no matter the regulatory environment. If I thought that liberal policies were good for the poor, I'd be for them. But they're not.
