The more I read through the Federalist Papers and others, I am forced to agree. A lot of ideology, not a lot of logical follow-through.

In some states they don't even have that. I've been seeking disability for six years in America for a partially broken back, with ten years of documented ongoing treatment at this point from childhood and my parent's medical coverage (I can walk, but I'm stooped most of the time and get to live with chronic pain, yippee) and because I couldn't get by on nothing, and got a part time gig that didn't cross the threshold I still got my benefits denied. So like, in all technicality, though I see myself as an able-bodied young man and pursue an active lifestyle to make sure my weight doesn't cause my spine to degrade and leave me fully paralyzed, I'm not even who this guy's talking about, and I can't get benefits through the current system. Now I'm just uninsured and planning to immigrate for education (and healthcare).

Damn, the Framers were really confident we wouldn't bork up this badly, weren't they?

Oh lord, I was on that thread in my few hours between bans earlier in the week, yeah that was a weird thread.

A true review of Taos from an advertiser's perspective. Interesting, but believable as a young man born and raised in NM, though there no longer.

Straight up, the dude has been the beneficiary of the most dick-riding post-humous propaganda ever, second maybe only to Robert E. Lee or Jeff Davis.
