Status: offline 		Okay - so I would like to know if conservatives got their way in these three things - what do you think would happen to our society? Lets just wave our magic wand and say - *poof* these things are in effect as of now - what would happen?

1. Abortion is outlawed in every state. A woman caught having an abortion will be charged with capital murder - and may be subject to capital punishment / and or / life imprisonment. Birth control is also outlawed. Every life is precious.

2. Redact the Universal Health care act - and stay with the current way Health Care is operating.

3. Completely annihilate any kind of welfare or assistance. You are on your own. No longer will a taxpayers 9 cents be going towards any helping of the poor or needy.

Ok - so lets say all three scenarios happen at once. What do you see happening?

One of those loathsome Jerry Pournelle novels?
(Or more likely The Turner Diaries. That's probably the next step after those three...)

Answer the question please - I would think it would be a GOP's Utopia.

They'd carry on acting like a bunch of evil sorts as any ceasefire could only be unilateral.

Evil is an apt description of the Republican Party platform.

Status: offline 		why is it evil? I see people on these threads advocating for these very things that are brought up in almost every single debate on here as of late.

So why not pose the question??

- if the mantras that I continuously hear from conservatives - Underlying themes being: we dont want abortion, we dont want welfare, we dont want to have to pay for someone elses health care - I would assume that the R party is having great difficulty accepting the current standing on these issues and are vocal about their stance on how why they would like to end or change it - and if theyre saying it, then I hardly think that they consider it evil.

Maybe someone could set me straight with these beliefs? Is the R party for Abortion - Welfare - Obamacare?

I just threw three of them out there, because these issues are currently being discussed on the boards - so Id just like to know what these people are actually saying, and how and why it would work.

If number three….Are there no prisons….Are there no workhouses…are they not still in operation? I help to support the establishments I have named; those who are badly off must go there.

I am so so so rethinking my politics to a more moderate and perhaps right-leaning stance right now.

Are you saying that what she posted in the OP isnt the Republican Platform?

My legs would be firmly closed... my mouth open only to voice my opinion. No way in hell would a man get his when I cant get mine.
