Are you sick of neo-cons putting down Liberals as useless?

How about some of these accomplishments:
Interstate Highway systems proposed by Roosevelt
The GI Bill
Labor laws
Marshall Plan
Environmental laws
Food Safety Laws
Work Place Safety Laws
Social Security
Space Program
Peace Corps
Civil Rights Movement
The Internet
Tennessee Valley Project
Public Health
Morrill Land Grant Act
Rural Electrofication
Public Universities
Bank Deposit Insurance
Earned Income Tax Credit
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
Family and Medical Leave Act
Consumer Product and Safety Commission
Public Broadcasting
Universal Public Education
National Weather Service
Scientific Research
Product Labeling Truth in Advertising
Women's Right to Vote.
Come on Neo-Cons, show us your list.
only p It was Kennedy who challenged us to make it to the moon, and it is under his and Johnson's Administrations that the space program took off, with numerous benefits to American industry and people's standard of living, not to mention National pride. And, since you are on the computer, you need to thank the space program and the Liberals who got it going.

LMAO not ONE Republican (is it still alright to call you "Republican"? You havent changed it again to like "Repub-American" or "God-Fearing Pedophiles"?) could put down ANYTHING in the Republican list.

Here lemme help...

Medical Tort Reform (Means you can't sue your doctor for leaving a fork in you)
Outsourcing US jobs to China, Taiwan, India and Mexico (not real patriotic, but when money is your God, you do whatever you have to, including selling your country and your birthright down the drain, but it's ok, cuz yer makin' MONEY)
Patent Law Reform: Prescription drugs are exclusive to the company which invented them for 7 years, before cheaper generic versions my be introduced, it USED to be 5 years- Grandma says THANKS Repubs).
The "All Child Labor is Created Equal" Program, otherwise known as the "No 5 Year Old Left Behind When the Factory Needs Employees at $1.00 a week"
The Patriot Act (means if you dont act like a Patriot, theyll spy on you)
Union "Norming"- Labor Unions have been under attack for years from them- but it's ok because we can TRUST WalMart to pay their employees a living wage and pay them for all worked overtime (and they dont hire illegals);
Tax Breaks for the Ultra Wealthy (you know cuz Big Oil only made $160 Billion last year, of course they need our subsidies, WAY more than that working Mom with 2 kids over there in the Food Stamp line), while the rest of us schulbs pay higher STATE taxes to make up for the Federal shortfalls.
Cutting Soldiers' Pay and Benefits twice before giving a less than the cost of living increase in January (oops that was DEMS did that, sorry);
Vehemently supports the Military, just don't embarrass them by asking where and when they actually served, cuz they didn't (Making money was more important than defending the country);

one will complain how liberals do "nothing"

then in the next question complain about all the "liberal programs" they are passing and have passed...

if they did "nothing" there wouldn't be anything for the conservatives to complain about...

The "internet" is a project funded and developed by the Department of Defense (and black programs of other agencies) as a way to monitor the activities of average Americans.

Because if they acknowledge liberal accomplishments they will have to admit to having a better life and being more free because of liberal idealism.

If the Cons would just get out of the idea business and start doing what their good at (implementing the ideas of others), the US and the world would be a lot better off.

Don't confuse them with the facts. As long as they can get away with portraying liberals as lazy, godless, socialist babykillers, they will. Some of them may even believe their description is accurate.

I see you include mostly programs that take money from successful people and give it to those who are not.
I did notice you are now taking credit for "The Internet"...You guys usually get mad when we laugh at you about that.
Gosh, and Cons never supported anything else.. Pathetic you folks are...

Just 1 thing on our Con list that NEEDS to be said, that provides you with all your "Social Remedies". And makes all these things possible. You will need a Dictionary though as it is not part of your vocabulary....Ready???...

CAPITALISM.....

No.

You act like all those are good things, all I see is more government involvement in my life that I have to pay for. And you and yours just want to increase it! Enough already,,, and most of those items above were a direct result of the depression.

I think our problem with the Libs, is that they've changed since the Vietnam War.

Pre-Vietnam, Liberals were strong on National Security, confronting our enemies, believed America was the shining light of the world, wanted to lead the world towards freedom, and were basically pro-capitalism (with new gov't programs thrown in.)

Post Vietnam liberals are spineless when it comes to National Security, want to appease our enemies, believe that America is the problem of the world, want the UN to lead the world, and are anti-capitalism.

I looked over your list. Liberals are responsible for the internet? Explain that one.

Most of the programs on your list can be credited to the Pre-Vietnam liberals. Can you show me a list of good liberal programs that aren't at least 30 years old?

What programs are today's liberals trying to accomplish? Gay Marriage
Tax increases
Abortion on Demand
Blaming America for 9/11
Surrendering in Iraq

Not quite the noble list as the old style liberals, huh?

Answered By: greencoke - 6/19/2007
I never said you were useless. Just ignorant and myopic.

Besides, many of the things you list would be considered blasphemously unConstitutional by the people who wrote the Constitution.

There is no Constitutional authorization whatsoever for the following government expenditures or usurpation of power:

Social Security
Tennessee Valley Project
Public Health
Morrill Land Grant Act
Rural Electrofication
Public Universities
Bank Deposit Insurance
Family and Medical Leave Act
Public Broadcasting
Universal Public Education

Also, as I point out, with not a small amount of schadenfreude, I look at the city Detroit as the ultimate result of "liberal" policies. Are you telling me that Detroit is the epitome of the "liberal" paradise?

Why do you think that all of the above were voted in 100?y Liberals or Democrats? You're giving credit to one party or group where credit is deserved by many, including Republicans and Conservatives. You also need to get your facts right. Where in the hell did you get the idea that the internet was the result of Democrats or Liberals? Contrary to popular belief, Al Gore didn't invent it. It was the brain child of the Pentagon (defense), something that most Liberals loathe funding. Many of the items on your list would not be law if it were not for the Republican/ Conservative vote. Don't forget that Civil Rights laws of the 1960's didn't have a chance of passage without the (mostly) Northern State's Repubilcan vote. The entire South was essentially controlled by the redneck-Ku-Klux-Klan wing of the Democratic party. Also, there are some things on your list that I would hesitate to claim credit for since they will ultimately result in more damage than good. Some even threaten to bankrupt the country, (like Social Security & Medicare). Do you really think that the Earned Income Tax Credit is an economic accomplishment? It's simply a welfare, redistribution of wealth scheme. Family Leave? Who cares - big deal. What was the national impact - hardly nothing. Don't forget that it was a Conservative who won the Cold War when all of the Liberals were sympathizing, cowering to or negotiating with Communist murdering thugs. Don't forget that it was a Democratic controlled congress that voted to pull out of Vietnam, which directly resulted in the rise of Pol Pot and the Killing Fields in Vietnam. Also, don't forget that a Liberal Democrat President, Jimmy Carter gave away the Panama Canal (which the Communist Chinese now control) and almost single-handedly destroyed out economy. Interest rates were high, inflation was sky-rocketing. Are you proud that Liberals have essentially ignored the 10th Amendment in the Bill of Rights that limits Federal powers? Are you proud of Liberal Supreme Court judges who ignore the Constitution and refer to their own biases and predjudices to make law rather than to interpret law? Make sure that you give credit to Liberal & Democrat blunders as well as successes. Is the next Liberal (Socialist) accomplishment going to be Universal Healthcare? Are the Liberal Democrats going to shove that Socialist boondogle down our throats even though it's failed to contain costs and maintain or increase quality of care in every country thats tried it? The answer is yes, because Socialists, which modern Liberals essentially are, think that all problems can be solved by government or centralized action. You take power and choice away from the people and give it to a relatively few politicians. You help create tax (increase) policies that burden small businesses and punish achievment. Yeah, you Socialists certainly have a lot to be proud of.

Just look at your list, Women's right to vote? This was supported by William Howard Taft, a republican and was made legal under Woodrow Wilson. The Internet? Just because Al Gore said he invented it doesn't make it true. The space program has been supported by many presidents. Didn't President Bush just say he wanted the US to make a landing base on the moon then go to Mars? You put environmental laws, which was started by Theodore Roosevelt after putting thousands of acres aside for the first national parks, and he also started food safety laws by having meat plants inspected after the book "The Jungle" came out and showed how dirty the work areas were and also for the first time in US history made company's put labels on their food items so you know what you are eating and what's in it. Were you sleeping through history class?

Basically- no degree, although I have tried completing one in the past and stopped because of physical and mental health issues which were overwhelming to deal with along with going to classes full time. I'm not stupid and I am quite articulate. I am 23 and have only worked for about two years retail in high school and stopped working to go to university. I worked a few months in 2010 retail after I dropped out but it was only a seasonal position, and the only reason why I have not been able to constantly work is because of mental health issues. I had also tried going back to community college during my free time since i left university in 2008/9 and I had panic attacks while in community college, which made my anxiety worse from then on. Well recently I met a good doctor and he prescribed me some meds that are stabilizing my moods and I feel the best I've felt in years, and I'm ready to work. Thing is, I don't know how to get a job now since I've spent literally years being depressed and anxious doing nothing. I don't really have anything to put on my resume, and I never finished my AA degree either. All I've done is cashiering and although I do the job well and I get promoted easily when I do these jobs because I'm a hard worker and I try to go above and beyond what they ask of me,which is the attitude I have no matter what kind of work I'm doing as long as I'm getting paid. But I hate cashiering because it's too easy and I want a job that is more interesting. Any suggestions for me on how to get a job that is NOT Retail with the type of background I have right now? I also realize I have to go to college to get certain types of jobs, I am talking about what I can do right here right now.

So I have a nice white button up shirt, business skirt and pants, and a suit jacket. I'm applying for a software development job and I'm very short and can look young so I'm trying to look adult, yet professional. I'm also attractive so I'm trying not to look too sexy. For the career fair I'm thinking of wearing just my nice shirt and a skirt with low heels. My reasoning being it's approachable and attractive without going overboard since the career fair hosts are mostly younger male recent grads. I want to be remembered but not intimidating. For my interviews I was thinking pants, suit jacket (power suit). My reasoning being it'll be older execs and HR people (mostly women) so less sexy with the pants but more powerful with the suit jacket. What do you think?!

Advances in technology will soon cause 70-80?nemployment in the USA. How will all those millions of people eat, then? That will lead to a conflict between Social Market-ists (gov't imposed wealth redistribution) and Free Market-ists (no gov't imposed wealth redistribution). First, the Luddite Fallacy. It WAS valid UNTIL machines could do most human mental functions better than humans. Some experts are already saying this, but generally it seems like the American Society and its leaders are proceeding in utter ignorance. You probably know about all the technologies that now exist or will soon be up & running, & which will massively reduce the need for human labor in the economy, thus MAKING MOST HUMANS UNNECESSARY to the economy. Some facts: (1) A couple weeks ago all the toll booth workers on the Golden Gate Bridge were all dismissed because the gov't bought a machine to handle everything. (2) Computer voice recognition already exists, in programs such as Siri and Google Voice and others. But very soon these programs will be so much better. Virtually all the human-staffed customer service call centers will disappear very soon. Human office receptions will be mostly eliminated. (3) McDonald's already has a prototype version of their fast food restaurant with NO human workers on site. (4) Wal-Mart & other retailers already have plans for stores with NO human cashiers. (5) Google's driverless cars and trucks will soon eliminate most drivers of commercial trucks & taxi cabs. (6) IBM's computer "Watson" defeated the best human players on "Jeopardy" about a year ago. Watson had to hear and understand host Alex Trebeck's spoken speech just like the human contestants. IBM created Watson to replace Medical Doctors. The plan is that nurses and nurses practitioners will take data from patients (temperate, blood pressure, reports of pains, etc.), enter that into Watson, and Watson will order tests and make prescriptions and treatment plans. Unlike human doctors, Watson will KNOW EVERYTHING about medical science. Doctor errors currently kill about 100,000 patients per year in hospitals alone. Patients will DEMAND to be diagnosed by Watson (or other equivalent) & have a prescription by Watson, since studies will show that patients fare so MUCH better when Watson is their “doctor,” and the cost will be MUCH less. (7) Computers are now replacing the lawyers that formerly had to spend massive hours read through massive amounts of documents turned over to the opposing side in "discovery" in civil lawsuits. Documents now are turned over in digital form, and computers search in seconds them looking for key words and phrases. (8) Soon publishers will stop printing books on paper. Everyone will have an e-Reader device. That will be the END of every physical library and bookstore. (9) Soon computers will be able to general characters in movies that are indistinguishable from real humans. Not only actors will lose their jobs, but costume people, makeup people, scene construction people, camera operators, key grips, electricians, lighting experts, etc. (10) New machines are replacing the humans who pick vegetables in fields. (11) New machines are replacing human security guards. (12) Human airplane pilots, both in the military and in commercial service, will soon be extinct. The FAA has already approved testing of drone planes for commercial transportation of non-human cargo. (13) Most trades on Wall Street are already being made by computers. (14) The U.S. Postal Service is doomed. Paying thousands of people to drive around in little trucks to deliver little printed pieces of paper to each household each day is going to seem more and more like idiocy. (15) Most of the reviews and analysis currently being done by human accountants, actuaries, tax experts, and other financial analysts and consultants will be done must better, more more quickly, and much more accurately, by computers. (16) Web sites already are using computer programs to write the text for stories that report on sports games. The program integrates the statistics from the game into a story text that seems to have been written by a human being. (17)Most education at the college and high school level will soon be done online, eliminating a massive number of workers. Thus, GIGANTIC UNEMPLOYMENT, in the range of 70-80?is coming soon to the USA. This will result in Rio De Janeiro type slums all over the USA. That will result in calls for gov't wealth redistribution, which will result in Armed Revolution, Counter-Revolution, concentration camps, & Latin American-style death squads. The rich and ultra-rich are never going to let any government get control of their wealth. Huge bloody CONFLICT is coming. * * * Politicians keep repeating the old canard that the solution is to train and retrain Americans for the "jobs of the future." But they are either morons or are lying, since anyone who thinks about it can easily see that even if every American worker had an engineering degree or a computer science degree, the economy just doesn't need that many engineers and computer scientists. * * * * * * * Why don't more people see this? Why aren't more people talking about this? We are facing soon a catastrophe in the USA (and in other places) on par of the plagues in Europe that killed half of the population in certain areas, and on par with the depopulation in Europe brought about by WWI and WWII. Sure, you can just repeat the Luddite Fallacy, and proclaim that the economy will always create enough jobs for most people to survive. But there is no law of economics that says that any law of economics will always operate the same. Laws of economics are not like the laws of physics. Economies and life forms can and do evolve in fundamental ways that make former economic models and ways of life obsolete. I'm sure the last tribe of Neanderthals were certain that nothing was ever going to change, right before the Homo Sapiens swooped down on them, chased them into a dead end canyon were other Homo Sapiens were lying in wait with big clubs. * * * * * * * * * In the past the Luddite Fallacy was valid since machines always needed the mental acuity that only human operators could provide, and machines frequently needed maintenance by skilled human hands and minds. But now machines have mental functions that equal or surpass what humans can provide in most work functions. And computers aren't so much repaired anymore as just thrown away and replaced. How many cell phone repair shops have you ever seen? Even most laptop computers are replaced rather than repaired. More and more laptop computers never even need to be repaired for years and years. In short, when the economy has no use for most Americans, all h*ll is going to brake loose, & that's coming soon. * * * * *

I've always freelanced as a web designer and might have an opportunity to work at a large ad agency. sorta nervous about the culture and role, so I was wondering if I could solicit feedback about the type of strengths I might need to develop, ie., strong project management (learn to use basecamp!), etc. I've held jobs on the client side as a web marketing manager and before that freelanced -- but on the very small scale. anyone with similiar experiences or feedback I'd love to hear from you!
