Ridiculous post. Why would a government, liberal or not want to create a class dependant on state handouts. A laissez faire regime doesnt actually help the poor in society whatsoever. It never has and never will. With lack of restrictions on buisness the larger companies would create monopolies reducing competition reducing competion and driving up prices. Whats more without employment law safeguarding the rights of the workers the large comperations would be free to abuse the working class therefore ubjecting them to low wages and bad conditions. Laissez faire economics has ben a disaster whenever it has been tried, trust me I have a degree in History. It has pretty much ruined the U.S economy olnce more under Bush. The fact im seeing Obama being called a communist on the news at the moment shows how far gone the American public is. Posts like yours are so far away from reality its scary. How normal people vote and actively support something that is so far from their own interests. The U.K isnt that much better but I dread the day we turn into mindless zombies like a good proportian of Americans. |

As far as I see, (conservative) punk isn't about screaming about deregulation. It's about getting harassed by cops, thrown in prison, - discussing real issues that affect you.
Also, it's about what you do correct the situation, like stomping hippie scum. Punk is, most definitely, not hippies beating on Bongo's talking about protesting the plight of Peruvian Transvestites. |

That being stated, I'd call White Power/NAZI punk bands right-wing, so I suppose you can include them in this category, but they're not the only bands up for the discussion. (EDIT) To expand, and give you an idea.... Samchung are a far-right Korean band. Their name itself is a reference to the re-education centers maintained by a rather unpopular dictator of the past. Are they NAZI or White Pride punks? Of course not, but they still qualify. Sniper are a far-right wing Finnish band. They have a song entitled "White Racist Christ", which should give you an idea of their ideology. They qualify. See? Quote:

And thanks for responding, I wasn't trying to goad you into making racist statements or anything (but you did it anyway). In fact, I believe that you have the right to hate whoever you want to hate for whatever reason. However..now I've got a new question. When I asked if beating hippies was your way of standing up to cops you replied with.. Quote:
I don't believe punks have the right to stomp on hippies no matter how scummy they are. If cops are "harassing" you by throwing you in jail for stomping on people, well.. that's their job really. And people shouldn't get stomped on just for being a hippie. So another serious question is: Why do you stomp on hippies? How does that 'correct the situation'?
