Populating the Blog: I run two businesses (one travel and one software), have two blogs (the other is very well-populated), and have a very high-traffic video tutorial site. Time is, unfortunately, my enemy.

Being more socialist with health care: I understand, and our system down here is severely broken. But I don’t believe we could take the Canadian system, which is being used in a country of 30 million, and apply it to the US with a population of 300 million. We need to bring our issues back to the state level, and then I may be ready to listen. Read up on our education system and look at the statistics once we federalized it. Disaster. I agree that everyone should have access to good health care, but I am supremely confident that federalizing our system will backfire on us.

On your immigrant status. Where from? Sadly, most North Americans have forgotten that the diversity in culture that steady immigration created here is a major factor in North America’s rise. As for the US, yes, Illegal immigration causes severe problems, but maybe one day I’ll write about how draconian our ‘Legal’ immigration policies are

I just stumbled upon your blog as many others here. Reading your “about me” makes me want to read more from, so why not populate your blog?

I love the “California Conservative” you wrote in the comment because that’s exactly what I thought when I saw that you are liberal in the economy and more “democrat” in the moral aspects. I am not trying to label you, but I think that if you guys in the US could take out the “moral” from the political space, it would make politics MUCH MUCH more productive.

I agree mostly with what you said even if I am a little more “socialist” regarding health care.

PS: I really really liked this sentence: “in recent years, that has somehow changed to freedom ‘from’ religion, which I am against”, as I think many many occidental countries as making the same mistake in the name of “respect” of the minorities or new immigrants.

PS: I AM an immigrant in Canada, and I find it laughable that the majority has to “respect” all kind of complaints and demands of new immigrants/religions/morals in the name of “equality” or “respect”. In the first place, the immigrant had the choice to come or not. As for the excess of separation between state and religion, I believe that anyone should be able to practice its religion as long as it is not an offence to the constitution.

The Equal Protection Clause, part of the Fourteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution, provides that “no state shall … deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws”.

If straights can marry then gays should be able to as well. That’s equal protection of the laws.

Anyway I was only here looking for something else, and I guess they went out of business since this is here now instead. So you have fun trying to convince people that you’re “not a republican.” I’m out.

1 : a belief that race is the primary determinant of human traits and capacities and that racial differences produce an inherent superiority of a particular race
2 : racial prejudice or discrimination

You see, it does not limit the definition to a particular race, which is my very point. When a bunch of white guys beat a guy because he is black, they are practicing racism. When a bunch of black guys beat a white guy because he is white, that is also racism. But our society doesn’t see it that way, which is flat our wrong in my opinion.
