Perry

[Captain Oates 911]

Imagine the landscape with teachers/police/firepersons all fired - huge class sizes and billions taken out of the economy. The top 1% having their wealth doubled again and no social security or Medicare.

The lower 98% would be economic slaves, being financially gutted to have their remaining wealth given to the top 1%

Ignorance and illiteracy to stalk the land with huge prisons for the financially derelict. Religion would be slyly introduced as a pre requisite for public office. (It is to some extent now).

Huge belt buckles and protruding guts - big hats and brown jackboots - a Texan future for hundreds of millions. Executions on a Texas scale.

Would you leave the US or slog it out like you did through the Bush years and hope ? Conservative years encourage ignorance and knee-jerk thinking and therefore perpetuate right wing politics. It's likely that the US would stay the way that Perry wants it in downward spiral of violent speech and ignorance and anti-intellectual thinking.

I would stay because I am in the top 5% with no entitlements accrued anyway - so they cant be taken.

The young don't care as they can't see as far as being sick or old or unemployed - some of which WILL come to them.

What about the middle ? What would they do in that post-nuclear like landscape ?

Would they leave ? Could they leave to live in another country with pensions and free health care and no executions or torture and women's choice and longer life expectancy and better education etc etc etc ?

I don't think they would and that is why the likes of Perry have a chance.

no your partisan BS hack ####### is a waste of pixels.

In case you haven't noticed both parties (including this moronic President) are doing their fair share of damage.

You don't know what you're going to get under a Perry presidency to be honest, but you sure as hell know the same ole BS you'll get under Obama 2.

and for the record, Perry doesn't have the nomination yet. It could be anyone still. We're still a YEAR away from the GOP Convention.

That's quite a lot of swearing and name calling for just one response

The post was 'What if Perry' and didn't say he WOULD win. So null points for socialized language and reading comprehension. This will be the norm under the schools staffing proposed by Perry and his like. On what grounds do you categorize the President as Moronic ? It is necessary to give reasons for your name calling, as simply calling names with no detailed reasons is just too facile and something that real morons are known for. Not something the President would do.

I am not scared of him unless he makes christianity cumpulsory (he might) - but I am concerned for the old, the weak, the unemployed, the non-religious - all of whom are of zero concern to the far right who claim Darwinism as a good thing - while denying Darwin's theories at the same time. How confused is that ? They deny Darwin's theory but embrace it as far as the dying out of the less fortunate is concerned - and they embrace christ but know nothing of mercy and compassion for the sick, the old, the unemployed.

..and meanwhile the undereducated simple souls keep voting for their worst enemies - the far right.

My mother was an exploited tea lady in an engineering works - she bowed and scraped to the boss and called him 'Mr Jonathan' - and she voted conservative while he laughed and exploited her for peanuts and then fired her when he felt like it. She still voted for them after that.

The far right rely on keeping people uneducated and illiterate and gullible - that is why they cut schools first.

Rick Perry would at least be transparent for what he is - coarse, aggressive, ignorant and exploitative and violent (attractive attributes to certain Americans such as Trump supporters). The real danger would be a candidate who was all those things yet seemed acceptable - Huntsman ?

Do you believe everyone in this thread apart from Smoke and Paul are socialists?
