Political Views you Strongly oppose...? (Be Specific)
Edited on Fri Nov-30-07 06:40 PM by Flabbergasted
Just the stuff that you are 90-100% against....

Mine...(Most prominent to my mind)

"Free Trade" agreements

The War On Terror

The War On Drugs

War as a foreign policy tool

Media consolidation

Infrastructure Privatization



BTW I read this at another forum. I thought it might be interesting to repeat here.

1. Media consolidation and 'insurance' over real, single payer health care
I have a lot of other things, but these are biggies for me.

4. Campaign Financing with Lobby/Corporate Money
A Senator must raise $20,000 a day to keep seat. It is wrong and keeps Our representatives in the pockets of the few. Presidential campaigns cost over 500 million, now. Is that right?

Until it changes, nothing else will.

The last 7 years have proven its moral and intellectual bankruptcy.
