Are we all left-tards here?

Come on now.  Are we?  While I myself wouldn't look for bible-thumping republicans, I think we should at least have a few moderates or radicals like libertarians ETC... 

Or is it the disproportionate european population here?

Your superior morals state that you should take people's money and give it to other people(not neccesarily even those who "need" it)?  Fuck that noise.

A better idea is forced personal savings accounts.  That way, you get what you put in. Your life savings isn't going to some illusory overarching "Good of everyone" which politicians can dip into and spend for whatever they want.  And most of our social problems get solved so the euro-tards can stop riding our asses over it.
