  1. Just to let you know, you probably wouldn't be alive if your parents hadn't relied at least minimaly on the government.

    Oh, and you of course woulnd't have learnt to speak&write decently if you hadn't gone to a public school, would you?


  2. Have fun dying in a house fire that your tax dollars- government money- would otherwise pay a fireman to put it out for you.

    Or like Sergio said, have fun teaching your kids how to read and write on your own instead of putting them in a public school.

    They government does more good than gets discussed on here. The truth is that it's too easy to point out the bad things, because they stick out like sore thumbs compared to the ritualistic things the American government does to better the lives of the people. It's utterly naive and downright stupid to suggest that nothing good comes from the government, and we could quite frankly list probably 50 things that you're not so "self reliant" on in your day-to-day life. Stop being immature and so radical about every belief you possess. It's fine to believe in something; it doesn't mean you need to choke it to its absolute death and advertise that it encompasses your life.

    I learned how to read and write from my family.

    Shove it.

    You blowing my beliefs out of context. I have no problemn, with the government providing education, and emergency services. What I do have a problemn with is some lazy fat fuck who just wants to sit home all day, and do crystal meth, because the govenrment will pay for his food, and housing, and the brain-damaged little basterds he makes. Meanwhile, me, and the majority of decent people in this country slave like fucking dogs all day, paying for him to be able to sit on his ass all day.

    You want to live in a nanny state, thats fine. As for me, I'll make my own way.

  5. I'll save my harmful&cutting comment about your writing skills for myself, thanks.

    That's great, congratulations! (not being ironic, I really mean it). I also learnt how to read and write from my mother and auntie, and at a pretty early age.

    Problem with Aaron, he may have learnt to read but he didn't learn to SPELL at a young age and still really can't get it.
  8. In the UK there's indeed a difference between "learned" and "learnt", but American English only uses "learned" actually.
    I'm not kidding, look it up.

    That is because spelling is insignificant to me.

  12. Does it matter?
    Anyway, just to let you know: I learnt how to read at 3½-4 years, and started writing at 4½. I wrote my first 180 words essay at 6 because a teacher doubted that I could do it. I was later diagnosed with advanced intellectual giftedness at 11 and got promoted one year (I didn't do my 5th primary year, and jumped from 4th to 6th).
