What I believe
April 25th 2010 15:02
I believe that people need to take better care of each other and that the government should do its share of that.
I believe that if you are wealthy, you should pay a greater share of taxes.
I believe in more gun control, rather than less.
I believe that gay men and women should be allowed to marry.
I believe that women should have the freedom of choice.
I believe, firmly, in universal healthcare.
I believe that waterboarding is torture and that the United States should not torture.
I believe that the war in Iraq is illegal and was justified through lies and deception.
I believe the Iraq war is far worse than a president getting a hummer in the Oval Office.
I believe that corporations are inherently selfish and must by monitored and regulated, heavily.
I believe that global warming is a real thing and that man is responsible for it.
I believe that man can reverse the effects of global warming by heavily regulating companies who pollute.
I believe that human beings are, at their heart, selfish and self-serving. They are not inherently good, as many believe.
I believe that without regulation, laws, and government interaction that people would only think of themselves and not help those in need. Thus, we need the government to create laws that force people to help those in need.
I believe that any "civilized" country that does not provide basic medical care to its citizens is far, far, far from "civilized."
I believe that there must be a separation between your religious beliefs and the beliefs you have for America.
I believe that there must be a separation between church and state.
I believe the Founding Fathers were not actually all Christians, as many have stated, but deists, agnostics and athiests.
I believe that the "trickle down" theory is a myth and does not work.
I believe that tax breaks for the wealthy do nothing but give the wealthy reasons and excuses to hide their money and do not do anything to help the economy.
I believe the government has to do what it can to take care of its people because the people, left to their own devices, will not take care of each other.
I believe it takes more than a pat on the back, a thumbs up, and some well-wishing to help people who need help.
In general, I hold these beliefs to be absolute and unchanging. They are my core beliefs and the things I hold as absolute and written in concrete. Therefore, this is why I proudly call myself a liberal and state, without a doubt, that this is something that can never, and will never, change.
