you aren't serious, are you?Unwonted said:Ben Franklin would probably also be shocked that gays were attempting to gain marriage rights and not running from angry mobs. He would be amazed at the Judiciary and how they can defeat hundreds of lawmakers with a single decision. He would be appalled that taxes were so incredibly high, and that we borrowed an income tax system from Karl Marx. The man who once said "Early to bed, early to rise, makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise" would be shocked that people who do neither and choose not to work can still collect a paycheck and eat until they're fat.
I don't think invoking the name of Ben Franklin is a good idea in this matter.
you think ben franklin wouldn't be for equal rights for everyone?, that people with a (possibly) differant sexual preferance then he has would not be considered equal according to the law in this land?
ha
and you think he want's a new constitutional definition for the word "marriage" just to make the new theocrats that are now running our government happy?
ha
and you think he would want people that have earned their keep in the u.s. would starve if they couldn't work?
ha
and you think taxes are incredibly high according to what standard?
and you think that a judge should not be able to strike down idiots making laws that fly in the face of our founding fathers great vision?
ha
