There appear to be some typos in these pages. Where it says
"Democrats make sure we share our toys", I belive that should be:
"Democrats tell us to find kids who have more toys than we do
and take some of them away".

Yeah, Tom. You should know by now that the proper way to do it is not to share, but to rig the system so that those with the most toys get everyone else's, too. Sharing is for Commies!

My version:
Democrats build more toy factories. They use some toys from the people who hoarded a lot to do so. Boy do those people get mad! But they still have plenty of toys anyway, and this way everyone else gets some too.

When's the last time you heard a parent tell a kid that it's okay
to take another kid's toys away as long as either a) you plan to
build a toy factory or b) they other kids "still have plenty of
toys anyway"?

I think if you heard a mother telling her kids this on the playground,
you'd think she was a bad mother.

You're mixing analogies. Stop with your hateful, anti-democratic, anti-american rants on my LJ.

I think so-called Libertarianism is ultimately more ruinous for our country and cultre than even the fundies. But I too found those examples creepily authoritarian.
