Welcome to Quixtar -- Now vote Republican, or else
By QBlog in
Is there anyone in Quixtar who is not Republican? This company is overtly Republican. I'm finding a wealth of information showing the right-wing political activity of this company. I've personally seen an environmental/fiscal Democrat do an almost 180 conversion into a neo-Republican as a result of this company. Are there any people who have been in Quixtar or Amway for any length of time who are still Democrats? It seems like it would be difficult to remain a Democrat in the midst of so many Republicans. It could be done I'm sure but just seems unlikely. How does political ideology affect the business of someone who is staunchly anti-Republican? Any answers?
NOTE: The term Republican can be replaced with Conservative and the term Democrat can be replaced with Liberal

I haven't found it difficult to *remain* a environmentalist who thinks it's sensible to not spend money you don't have and thinks we ought to share with each, but I find it extremely difficult to not be labeled as something/in some party I am not.
I tend, therefore, to avoid discussion of politics.
And of religion.
This is perhaps the course of laziness, not harmony.
You could say the same thing about Unions, homosexuals, feminist, and environmentalist. Except THATS ok because those groups are all LIBERALS. I think it is so funny how the wrong.......I mean the left view anybody who disagrees with THEIR ideas as dare I say evil.
Ex: I would like to see income tax reduced to lets say 4% or abolished altogether.
Automatically Liberals dive into their "sky is falling" mentality and start spouting how I am anti-poor, anti-black, anti-homosexual, america would be suddenly throne into 3rd world standard of living, and on and on and on....
What any liberal fails to understand is how wealth is created. It seems liberals have this belief that there is only a set amount of money, and anybody who wants to be or is already wealthy are just greedy human beings who want to hord all the set amount of money that exists. CAPITOLISTS, CONSERVATIVES, and any other entrepreneur are the people who CREATE the money that YOU use. Without them we have no economy, no jobs, no progress technologically, and only fat politicans that would classify as the upper class. I mean who do YOU think creates jobs, Kerry? I'm reading the constitution right now and Article II section 5 does not exist(that the president shall have the power to create or destroy jobs; he shall be entirely responsible for economic growth or decline; and solve any other problem the United States gets itself involved in).
Here are some Ideas that I think represent liberals very well.
*Abolition of private property
*Heavy progressive income tax
*Abolition of all rights of inheritance
*Confiscation of property of all emigrants and rebels
*Central Bank
*Government control of Communication and Tranportation
*Government ownership of factories and agriculture
*Government control of labor
*Corpate farms, regional planning
*Government control of education
Do You agree with some if not all of these.
If so you may want to reconsider calling yourself a Liberal and change it to Communist. Just as the United States has the Bill of Rights so to Russians had the Communist Manifesto, and you just read its summary.
Through the subtle social manipulations of Quixtar, one is taught that they need to change everything and literally sell out to the plan. So in this transformation of becoming a Quixbot, you are willing to essentially change your entire mentality and persona. And seeing that the majority of the leaders are overtly conversative Republicans, I can see how people could change their "stinkin' thinkin'" and switch political affiliations.
