Hey Stupid,

Communists from the 60s and 70s are still the same. They're just older. They are still spouting the same rhetoric.

Stupid,

"totally irresponsible in our spending..."

I note that was your first choice of admonitions on your "don't like" list. I appreciate this is a sore point with liberals.

Dunderhead Americans just can't be trusted with their own money.

Therefore, that freedom should be taken away by creative taxation allowing that money to be spent wisely...and generously.

Certainly, you can voice your opinion, (another freedom) but what I do with my money, be it foolish or wise, is my choice.

I know this is galling to many elitists who insist they know what's fiscally best for all of us.

It's appalling to these folks that individuals spend their own money on things they prefer to spend it on, but that's the way it is in the free enterprise system.

Ever wonder why so few are willing to risk their lives to get into say, Cuba? Especially considering they have universal health care.

How you spend your money is definitely your choice. If you don't plan to save, you should not and must not rely on any social program to survive after you spend all your money.

However, how you spend borrowed money is not your choice anymore. Most of our spending today on national and personal level is on borrowed money. In many other countries such as Saudi, there's no "personal bankruptcy." You have two choices: cough up the money or go to jail - their jails aren't nearly as nice as ours.

Stupid,

To keep this at least marginally on topic, I agree with the OP's title of this thread.

I love this country and particularly Texas.

You state: "However, how you spend borrowed money is not your choice anymore."

How so?

Your immediate non sequitur following this statement doesn't clarify your statement...

If what you mean is a wave of a tsk tsk moral wand - suggesting you don't approve of credit, well, that's another galling free enterprise method disallowed in a totalitarian state. Many liberals find this constraint heart warming. Police states keep foolish (in their view) consumer spending to a minimum.

Capitalization credit (for one instance of borrowed money) is one of the contributing means for start up businesses leading to jobs resulting in a healthy free market.

Or if you don't approve of credit for luxury items like a fancy boat, understand that such loans are generally paid in full with few defaulters. Of course, many liberals find ownership of luxury items immoral in the their overarching view of things.

Sound credit management is not immoral. In fact, credit for a wide arrangement of purchases works quite well, with an overall small percentage of defaulters among consumers, be it for home repair or luxury items.
