How are we going to get rid of all this socialism around here?

My fellow Americans (or at least the republicans) We are surrounded by socialism.. We must get rid of all these lefty services that are draining our paychecks so liberals can live off of us. Just look at all the socialistic government programs we are paying for.

The police,

The fire department

THe department of education just to name a few....

I'm sick of paying my tax dollars to protect the lefties from fires, crime and miseducation. Let them pay for it. Now they want to make us pay for medical treatment!!!

Lets get rid of all the lefty socialist programs.

Update:

I'm a republican, The only drugs I do are presciptions.

Update 2:

Sticks and stones Tin

acydskull try 10 billion a month.

    I'm with you 100%. We need the money to spend on defense, bailing out Enron and helping out poor old Haliburton.

    We don't need any police that is why we all have assault weapons. Firemen and first responders are a drain on society. And don't get me started on the education system, we want those poor kids to stay poor. My kids will get their education because I make enough money to pay for it. We certainly don't need any diplomats around the world and let's cut all funding to the corporations. Let's close the borders and restrict international travel. Let's stop all imports and exports, we have all we need. Let's abolish Social Security since the elderly are also a drain on society. Let's cut all foreign aid and welfare. Those poor people should have been born into a rich family, what were they thinking. Boy we could really improve things if those bleeding heart libs weren't so caring about people. It is those darn Dems...

    I would be a horrible person to think all of those things, thank God I don't share that world view.

    Wow, I hope you're joking. You want to get rid of the police, fire department and the department of education? How about transportation safety board, or the department of defense, FDA, child protective services.

    You know what? I don't want my Social Security or Medicare dollars to go to YOU if for some reason you lose your money and ability to work and your medical bills force you into bankruptcy. But you know, it won't matter what I think, because the government safety net will be there to catch you.

    Update: Prescription drugs are just as bad when abused.... case-in-point: Rush Limbaugh

    Fine, we'll just let your house burn if it catches fire. And, we'll make sure we dismantle your schools and the other schools in conservative areas. You can all teach your kids about your fictitious Jeebus and the fairies called angels. I'm sure that will get them far in life. BTW, don't blame us if the rapidly rising amount of poverty due to these kind of policies causes some of the poor folk who are hungry and now uneducated to break into your home for some cash, jewels and food. I'm sure you'll understand when we don't send the cops when you try to call the defunct 911 emergency number. Oh and don't blame us if there is a huge rise in gangs and drugs being pushed onto you and your kids. I'm sure you'll understand it's just that old fashioned laizez-faire 'free' market economy at work.

    Well, maybe we can get rid of the Republican Welfare Program that is costing $2 billion a month otherwise known as the Iraq War and pay for all those other programs.

    Police and Fire I disagree with.

    The Dept. of Education.. GONE.

    ALL Federal government programs accept national security should be turned over to the individual states and municipalities.

    All I know is that when France and China create new medical technology from embryonic stem cell research, cons and dittoheads must be denied it. They think it is evil and I don't want them using that or the above social services.

    We should have private accounts for these services, when we use them - we pay for them.

    It is time to end medicare and VA socialist health care.
