Comment on Technology and Democracy: Wired Magazine Elitism versus Pirate Party Openness by Michael Watson

Michael Watson — Fri, 11 May 2012 20:02:00 +0000

I agree with David. How is randomly selecting from registered voters exclude minorities, the elderly, and the poor? It cost less than a dollar to register in Texas. The cost of paper, ink, and a stamp. Do you know somewhere where they keep certain people from registering? It also seems like your complaining that the method isn’t democracy? There is a reason no country in this world has adopted pure democracy, it’s logistical and impractical. And are you advocating mandatory voting? Do you really think the government needs to force more rules on the people?

If you are writing about the same article I just read, I suggest you re-read it. You completely missed the point. The article makes a direct and pointed attack on society’s elitist power structures, e.g. Well funded lobbyists, out of touch politicians.

Comment on Is Head Start Obama’s “No Child Left Behind?” by Cj109

Headstart is a babysitting service for the worthless people who then have more free time to make more babies for the government to look after. My child was enrolled in headstart for a few months, but she picked up too many bad habits from the school. She started to make a mess eating with her hands. She was always hit on by the bigger children and she become a bully. She would cry at the drop of a hat , because she saw how they hold the cry babies. She looked forward to going to school, but she woke up one morning and refused to go to school. Dont know why. It took us months to get her out of the bad habits she learned at school. I can assure you that she is more advanced that the children who continue in that school. We school her better at home, but I think she would actually learn more from the computer and Disney channel than she would learn at the school.

Comment on Effectiveness of Non-traditional Direct Action Kony Campaign by Guthrie

Guthrie — Mon, 30 Apr 2012 16:23:00 +0000

The military advisers were sent in October 2011, way before the Kony 2012 video. Invisible Children teaches us two things: 1) how misguided religious right fanatics can create a problem and use new media (umm.. we learned that new media was powerful from Obama 08) to create an unneeded buzz and take away from real causes 2) decisions on which aid agencies to support and military intervention should not be guided by viral videos. This whole thing makes me so angry, if only half the money/’attention IC got would’ve gone to great organizations: The Global Fund for AIDS and malaria or PEPFAR or Nothing but Nets.

Comment on Huge Obstacles to Beating Scott Walker in Wisconsin Recall by Maryellendeckard

@GardenGnomeLF: Yeah, because we know that all the CEOs and bosses of Greedy Corporations that suck up our money in tax breaks, then cut thousands of jobs and send them to other countries in return are all Democrats, tight? Like the Koch Brothers, those haters are funding the whole Walker Campaign…Wonder where they live, huh? Maybe in a trailer park, right? Wake up, buddy- Democrats will vote for the things you need- like Social Security…and Republicans will vote to privatize it, saying they are saving it, but really, gambling it on the stock market, just like they did our mortgage money.

Democrats desperately need your help in forcing people to hand over their money to unions to keep democrats in power. Give your lives to democrats because their mansions are not cheap and you are just too stupid to control your own lives.
