So your logic is that if we are not there, the number will go down... That makes perfect sense... not.

Even if Obama has socialist connections, what's the harm? Let's take a socialist country against ourselves shall we? Denmark's infant moratality rate per 100,000? 4.45 USA? 6.37. Denmark's unemployment rate? 3.5%. USA? 4.8%. Denmark's current account balance? +4.699 billion USA? -747.1 billion.

Wow, those socialists sure suck, right?

so DUH, are you intimating that you have no problem with socialism in government so long as the socialist governed country is small?

as an aside, beyond the infant mortality and balance of trade data, Denmark is consistently the country having the largest percentage of its country as "happy". to me, that is a very postive indicator about the way they are governed

How about the soviet union? There's a socialist country that worked out fine, right? Cuba?

Obama isn't but deep inside I think Hillary is. Her flop healthcare plan stunk of it. I find it difficult to believe that someone who thinks the government should dictate to students what field they study in college (for those who declare medicine) is anything but.

there is no "mostly unique;" thats like saying "sometimes always," its an oxymoron - its either one or the other.


The result:
Quote:
By the mid-19th century unique had developed a wider meaning, “not typical, unusual,” and it is in this wider sense that it is compared. The comparison of so-called absolutes in senses that are not absolute is standard in all varieties of speech and writing.
