Title: Political Standpoint
Post by: ITW [the irish boy] on January 10, 2003, 11:16:48 AM
Where do you people stand? I'm on the left myself, I believe people should come before money, yet I still have an accute business brain. I think that social services for instance are more important than giving huge tax incentives for corporations, that kinda stuff.

What about the rest of you? Where do you stand?

I'm in no category, I have different opinions on everyissue, and hardly any of them are solid.

^^i try not to categorize or label myself ever. I figure, otherz wanna label me enough as it iz. I jus have my opinions, my views...ill express them when i feel like it. They might be wrong, they might be right...but they dont necessarily have to follow any sort of pattern.

Fair points.

I wouldn't label myself as left, except because I agree more with those opinions than those of the right. Fiscally the right has sound basis, unless you are in the bottom half or third of society whereby you tend to be left out of rightwing politics.

I have my own opinions and I voice them to local politicians when I see them. For instance, I believe refugees have a right to live in this country, I believe health and medical services should be top priority and I think home grown enterprise should be more important than multinationals.

I think the right favours the rich and the left favours the poor. I guess a fine balance needs to be struck
