For Opulence

[shipperx]

For opulence0808, who apparently was treated rather shabbily because she had Reagan as her LJ icon. Two articles that I liked (Yes, they're about Reagan. And yes, I do fully intend to go back to not having anything political in my LJ):

Thanks, will read.

You know, one of the party leaders in our version of congress is a self-affirmed Communist and sees nothing wrong with that. And many of the Socialists were Communists when they were young and go "we were young and didn't know better". Russia is not very far away from here, so I loathe and despise all those who make excuses for Communists. Oh, they "didn't do it the right way". We're governed by Socialists here who run the country to ruin while making excuses for criminals and giving everyone who coughs pitifully sick benefits.

That said, religious people scare me, and sexual orientation should be a personal matter as long as they don't expect the tax payers to pay for insemination. My taxes are high enough as it is, and I don't even have a work related income yet. /rant
