Ok. I've always wanted to visit Australia.


All the best parts would be a part of the great barrier reef if your scare mongering was true.

I gave you the context YOU supplied. Context matters, and while you may have meant otherwise, the average person is easily going to connect the same dots that I did. You attacked the copious amounts of money we spend on defense and stated that "that's enough to fix..." which carries with it the assumption that that money will "fix" the problems you stated, when that has not been proven in the slightest.

So when I said:



I was fairly attacking the notion that spending money fixes problems.

Moron.

its called theory and discussion. never in a million years will america cut its entire defense budget. i thought that was a given and theres no proof because its never been done, however anyone with the slightest intellect can see how this option is more utilitarian than military funding when your deficit is at 17tril +

if you can't wrap your head around simple notions you shouldn't be here debating politics

This is PaRD, and people here actually debate whether we should eliminate ALL defense spending (hello drunkandstagger). Now how am I to distinguish you from the other multis to pop up around here so I can know whether you were one of them? And utilitarianism may have its modest uses, but as a driving philosophy, it sucks, it always has sucked, and it always will suck.

in a utopia things are perfect but this is real life and utilitarianism tends to be standard for decision making in this world. all the suggestions here is not feasible or plausible i didnt think what i said was out of line. it was worth a thought but morons couldn't grasp the implications without being spoonfed answers. typical brain dead americans
