Omg Otto. The Iron Chancellor. 

In your defense, the system has worked for over a hundred years. On the other hand...well...there are people who who are prepared to put seniors out on the streets in exchange for the good feels they get from the demagogues who prefer to direct our society's productivity elsewhere.

Bismarck didn't introduce it out of the goodness of his heart. He introduced it because he knew that a content population is less prone to rebel and to turn to radicalism. In his days the birth of socialism and it's success among the workers was his motivation.

Don't you think those programs have improved everyone's quality of life?

Of course it did. And that's not the point. The point is that even someone not caring about the great unwashed can do good, even if it's not his primary goal. A little bit of brain was all that was needed, since Bismarck wanted to ensure inner peace.

And Bismark had brain to spare. I would love to have a government that was informed by humanistic values, but in lieu of that, I'll take government by people who aren't irrational idiots any day.

Not hooked, but between Clinton, Sanders, and Trump, I'm for Trump. Don't like everything about him, but no one is perfect. I do like how how he pisses off the SJW PC community though, along with the illegal immigrants making a mockery of our borders and laws. I like how he's against the giant sucking sound created by NAFTA. I like how he's a businessman, and not a politician always trying to appease to get votes.

No, your rhetoric and vitriol speak to an emotional investment far more than a rational decision.

You're not fooling anyone, Scrub.

If Trump becomes president, I wonder how many Americans will move to where I live, the UK, due to that?

FUCK DONALD TRUMP IN THE ASS WITH A 9000 LIGHTYEAR LONG GALAXY-CROSSING STEEL DILDO AND THEN BEAT HIM WITH IT.

You've never "whipped" us alone before. In your countries first insurgency the French Navy was the deciding factor.
In 1812-15 the US lost, failing to achieve any of its stated aims while the British succeeded in all of theirs. And remember you weren't even our major threat at the time we were concentrating on defeating Napolean, you may have heard of him.



You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid.
