my class had this discussion in social studies talking about the differences between democrats and republicains. The teacher asked the kids which political party do they prefer. Most kids in the class selected democrats and a couple of other kids selected republican.I picked neither b/c i dont really trust either political parties.The teacher asked why most of the kids picked democrats and they said the most predictable. "because my dad, mom, and grandma is a democrat." and not know 1/8 of politics.I know i rarely go to this section but i always wanted to get this off my chest b/c it was always pretty funny to me.So, can you give your input on exactly the difference between republicans and democrats besides the little quick "sugar coated" reason my teacher gave to me at class today?

Quote (J-Breakz) One is a Douchebag, the other is a Turd Sandwich lol this is the comparisons my teacher gave from class(these are coming straight from my notes) Democrats -left wing government;liberal -bigger government -increase taxes -decrease military spending Republicains -right wing government;conservative -smaller government -cut taxes -increase military spending then she start going into this other shit like "oh domocrats are usually the ones who are free and want to do whatever they want" and "republicans are usually hard working" and im like how can you possibly assume that?? WTF??? this is a good example how the government is scared to reveal the truth in school.

Quote (Uncharted) Democrats -left wing government;liberal -bigger government -increase taxes -decrease military spending Republicains -right wing government;conservative -smaller government -cut taxes -increase military spending Nope thats the usual stereotype the only difference between Democrats and Republicans is that on the social plane Democrats are more socially progressive and conservatives are more traditionalists . Thats the only difference the rest is just BS . Neo Liberal economic policies were first adopted by Reagan not by democrats as it is believed cutting taxes the same smaller government ?? what is that ? thats a paradox was it smaller government ?? a government can't be small a government governs or it disappears . Military spending is the same or high when democrats lead . So those are all bullshit myths .

Man seriously, I think their needs to be special field of study for shit like this, when people insanely drift off into complete oblivious delusions of information and not seeing it as it truly is. Sociology doesn't really pay attention to it much.

Democrats and Republicans are the same fucking thing. They are feeding the same families, just by different means. Republicans go to other countries and rape people for their natural resources. Democrats tax the shit out of their own people.
Life's a bitch and I'm just along for the ride.

How is that the same? The explanation you gave doesn't make the government's power smaller. The govn't still has the same amount of control, it's just more concentrated. My explanation shows that they want to weaken the govn't.

And Nixon, at least the EPA. anyone involved in government politics can't make government " smaller " , as Benjamin Tucker said 'the best government is that which governs least,' and that which governs least is no government at all'. The government is not made to govern least or even be smaller the government is made to govern in full power the nature of a government is like that it doesn't matter who leads it .
