What if I want no taxes for the lower class lower taxes for the middle class and small business but much higher taxes on the upper class and large corporations, a very strong military, less but stronger corporate regulation with more teeth, to fund public works and social services with the taxes we bring in, a free and equal society with no hierarchical systems or bigotry, freedom of speech and strong privacy laws with certain restrictions on speech (calls to violence, etc...), very strong unions, a near complete elimination of wall street, and a fair justice system that doesn't target minorities as prey? Also, guns are fine for self defense in my opinion. Which side do I fall on?
Edit: So if you will read my posts below I talk about how going against groupthink just makes you enemies of the group. Then the group started down voting me down below. I'm really not worried about fake internet points. I just want to make sure that everyone that downvoted me is well aware that my point is well and truly proven. A difference of opinion is not welcome. Even, and especially, if that opinion is, "Stop letting the group think for you. Examine each issue as a separate issue and make fair and reasoned decisions."
Liberal, but you'd have to give up on guns or find some pro-gun liberals to hang out with.
Eh, liberals tend to not support Unions that much, that's closer to leftist. Leftists also generally support gun ownership, at least for the Workers.
Leftists support gun ownership for the "right" workers. Not all workers because some may disagree with them
Really? According to who?
