What exactly is "compromise"?

Anti-Party said:
I'll ask this. If the majority of the people want a change in law, should there be a change in law? Let's use gun background checks as an example.

Somewhere around 96% of the people wanted background checks. Though polls might be inaccurate when close, this was no where near close.

If you think, "No there shouldn't be a change" and you agree with the powers in office that are there to represent the people..........then you sir are part of a dictatorship. The powers heard what the people wanted and neither party made the change. And yes, the Constitution CAN be changed through the right process if the people want that change.

When a Government starts doing what it thinks is in the best interest of the people and ignoring what the people want, it's a dictatorship. WE THE PEOPLE run Congress, not the other way around. The correct process should be taken when changing laws but typical "pissing wars" have shown this is practically impossible even if the it's what the people want.

Again, WE THE PEOPLE control Congress. WE THE PEOPLE decide what's best for America. Democracy is supposed to be the voice of the people.

And if you researched global politics at all you would notice that Republicans have done way more damage to America recently than Democrats. Ever since Corporations bought out the Republicans it's turned into a Corporatocracy and nothing like the old Republican party which I like.

Nice diatribe. But the American people didnt want Obamacare and we got it anyway. Does that mean we are under a dictatorship?

Or does it just mean when you don't get your way?

Right...it was Liberalism that caused the financial crisis that resulted in Liberals getting elected all across this country.

Was it Liberalism that crashed the economy and resulted in MILLIONS losing their jobs?

No...wait...that was EIGHT YEARS of CONSERVATIVE policies.

You're insane if you think a Soviet-Style assembly line healthcare "system" is the best.

"Soviet-Style"? If you mean hyper-democratic, decentralized healthcare, then I do. But if you mean the hierarchical, government run healthcare under Stalin, then I don't - and there's very little connection to draw between that and the single payer systems.

Boorish has been banned from more forums than ILA. I remember googling it a couple of months ago.

Funny thing is today Google came up with this:

Your statement here is fucking hilarious!

“Decentralized healthcare” and there’s no connection to a “single payer system?” Let’s see you explain how the fuck that works Rosie. Looks to me like fucking socialist healthcare is singly paid by a central government huh Rosie?
 
The USA used to have the best healthcare on earth.
Probably still does, Obama hasn't fully implemented his CHANGE yet!!

"My friends, we live in the greatest nation in the history of the world, I hope you will join with me as we try to CHANGE it"!!

Anything beats the sack of shit UK NHS system!!
