No I worked for it go earn your own
and said : Absolutely not ! I've seen first hand the damage that this can do to an economically powerful country. I'd argue that 'Redistribution of Wealth' is a repulsive euphemism for government sanctioned theft.

No.
and said : Giving the poor a free ride at the expense of the middle class is just as wrong as giving the rich a free ride at the expense of the middle class. At least Obama's true motives are coming up before the election for all to see. Will McCain do the same but in the other direction ?

Yes
and said : Great poll Art but you are completely wrong about this. In spite of the last 8 years of government this is still America, the best country in the world ! "The importance of the Internet as the "the most participatory form of mass speech yet developed," requires that the courts perpetually uphold the freedom of speech." http://epic.org/free_speech/c... The U.S. Supreme Court struck down the 1996 Communications Decency Act (CDA), a federal law that outlawed "indecent" communications online. Ruling unanimously in Reno v. ACLU, the Court declared the Internet to be a free speech zone, deserving of at least as much First Amendment protection as that afforded to books, newspapers and magazines. The government, the Court said, can no more restrict a person's access to words or images on the Internet than it could be allowed to snatch a book out of a reader's hands in the library, or cover over a statue of a nude in a museum. There are many other free speech cases at the Supreme Court level that have upheld this, ASHCROFT VS. ACLU etc. http://www.aclu.org/privacy/s...

Yes
and said : America is often blamed for all the worlds problems or is praised as completely innocent. It's ironic that the US media is often obsessed with either of these extremes when it is they who are driven almost entirely by political/economic dogma to begin with. This ties back into the US (and other countries) media's lack of accountability to the people they are supposed to be informing for the benefit of the people not national and trans-national corporations and political groups. Then again the responsibility does not lie solely with them but the people that have allowed the creation of such 'monsters' in the first place.
