That may or may not be (I don't know), but that welfare drain would go away quickly if conservatives had their way. Meanwhile over in the blue states all the welfare programs that get shot down now would go through unopposed. > They pretty much already have the >American Taliban set up in many places Total bullocks. Nowhere in the United States is there any set of laws that even comes close to that. Show me somewhere where it's illegal to have premaritial sex or where the government encourages female circumcision or where women are treated as property. Show me a place where you can be arrested for practicing a religion outside the norm or where people are afraid to speak out against the government. There's no place like that here. Get off your soapbox and come back to the real world. >...if the red states were a government >of it's own, Taliban states like Texas would overwhelm the rest of the >country and that would quickly devolve into a fascist Christian >dictatorship, kinda like how the ideals of the Bolshevik revolution >(Freedom, liberty, equality) quickly devolved into a Marxist dictatorship. > No it wouldn't. Even in the Bible Belt we're outnumbered by Humanists, agnostics, and aethists these days. Especially in a conservative run nation, where gun control would be almost non-existant (if not completely non-existant) a Christian dictatorship wouldn't fly. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology-Michael-Dinowitz/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/message.cfm/messageid:320527 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/unsubscribe.cfm
