lol I have a friend with an MBA, and they made him do number crunching at corporate office when he first started. I found the fact sort of funny.

Re: Politics Forum Introductions Thread!

I'm a 21 year old physics graduate starting an MSc as part of national health service job training this autumn. I tend to have more left wing views economically, I am a supporter of measures to improve our environmental impact and I support greater international co-operation. I am also staunchly anti-military.

Re: Politics Forum Introductions Thread!

I am:

-  an adopted son of God thru the acceptance of His offer thru Jesus' sacrifice
   (otherwise known as a Christian wink)
-  a barely full-time university student now
-  an intramural floor hockey player
-  a Montreal Canadiens fan (go SuperPRICE...the goalie)
-  embarassed to say that I cheer for the Winnipeg Blue Bombers (my hometeam)
-  I also cheer for the Dallas Cowboys and the Indianapolis Colts
-  my signature mentions my political Centrist tendencies
   (otherwise I'd be labeled as a conservative liberal)
-  one who thinks outside the box but chooses to think inside it sometimes
-  a Canadian!!! (with 50% German and 50% Dutch blood)

...due to my learning proper time management (I used to use no time management) and my realization how much time is required for someone who's learning proper study and note-taking skills and getting into physical shape through intramural sports,
I no longer have the time to be on 4 forum sites and 2 gaming sites.

So I'm cutting back to only 1.5 forum sites and only 1 gaming site.
Sorry, but this means I won't be doing either on this site.

Despite my past issues with how this forum was run, it is FAR better than most of the other ones!!!

Re: Politics Forum Introductions Thread!

Kiwi, 28, BE & PostGradDipEng both in ChemMat. Was going to do my masters, but the company backing me went under (or at least the parent company did.)

True Liberal, Idealist and believer that the human race can be so much more than they are and that bigotry, religon and blind faith in ones country are what are holding us back. Also believe that government should concentrate on only social issues and leave economic issues to be determined via competitive forces.

I also beleive that humans can and do influnce our enviornemnt and we should be working to lessen our impact, esp since the basis of this will be to do more with less, thus increased efficiency and productivity.

I addition I beleive fully in proper education and that via better learning we will develop further and further...



Althought it might be flaming, I do find it funny that "good ole BW" is talking up somene getting an education, or even he got one himself...

Re: Politics Forum Introductions Thread!

Fool....

If I met even you...and anyone else on this forum.
Nothing surprises me at all about anyone here on this forum
we all seem to be idealistic in our beliefs, not afraid to express them, for the most part convey them coherently, and are all relatively well educated.

Its why I may take a break, but I come back here to vent and relax my mind.

Yea....I'm forum head strong and set in my beliefs.....as you all are.
I'm sure Im doing something correct in life.  Great business w/many call back customers and referrals even when others in my field are hurting.
2 kids in high school now, in private schools, on full academic scholarships.
One wants to go to West Point, the other wants to go on to NASA and hopefully to Mars on day.

I'm a happy dude.
I come off like an Ogre, but I do respect most on this forum a lot.
Even you....FOOL....as disrespectful as you have been to my family, and for sure you deserve a good slap in the head at times......even you.

I would take you to my favorite restaurant, we would have a great meal with a fine bottle of wine,  a few drinks after....and all along talk about the world.
You all would have a great time, I would throughly enjoy it....

and for sure, I would pick up the tab.

Re: Politics Forum Introductions Thread!

I don't know if "anyone else" includes animals Duck...but NOBODY wants to have dinner with a decimus.

Anyway, to the subject of this thread, I fit in nowhere. I have pov's found within different parties or mostly no party at all. My views are often regarded as "extreme" so I can't say I'm a moderate either.

I can give a thousand examples but I'll keep it short, as I said before I'm extreme LP and lets stick to that.

Re: Politics Forum Introductions Thread!

I played poker with Deci when he was in Belgium and cleaned him out big_smile

My turn, even though I mostly stick to laughing at self inflated people on here ;

Belgian, 28, master in Laws and master international relations. I also hold a 25 meter swimming certificate.

Individualist, and convinced that conflict is progress, and crisis is opportunity. But only for those strong, flexible and intelligent enough to spot it.

Rather libertarian political view, but education and heath care should be top priorities..

Re: Politics Forum Introductions Thread!

i am 14 and live in South carolina, US

My political views are libertarian in which i beleive the individual should have more freedom in social issues and economic issues. I don't beleive in American foreign policy at the moment and i will not agree to it if mccain comes to office. I also do not agree with Obama's economic policies because i can never trust government to do anything right. Government should be kept to a bare minimum.

Anyway, im in highschool and i just got a letter in the mail nominating me to represent south carolina in the national young leaders conference. It is held in washington where i can get to meet senators, representatives, famous news anchors etc... basically some of the most powerful people on earth. Yes i consider myself lucky that most academic things comes very easy to me. I am 200 pounds so i am fat and physical things are a struggle. Although I like playing basketball a lot!

Re: Politics Forum Introductions Thread!

You'd buy me dinner BW? awwhhh... that is so much nicer than anything else you were going to give me if I ever went back to NYC (very unlikely btw, not cause of anything discusable of course.) Maybe if you were that nice I would be nice back to you.... maybe.. tongue

Btw if you come here I will also get you a nice dinner, and I will tell you which maori's to keep away from so you don't get eaten...

Re: Politics Forum Introductions Thread!

Interesting, a politics thread where ppl are being nice to each other =o

In any case:

23 years old and living in the USA

Currently a manager of a hotel in south florida and working on my bachelor's degree in hospitality/buisness management

Spiritual individual but not neccesarily religious, though life experiences has taught me to have a strong faith in God

Can't say that I belong to any particular political party or view as for the most part, I'm pretty much open to much as long as it seems reasonable.

November, I'm voting for obama! Mostly because I'm strongly against McCain's foreign policy and his latest move, picking up Palin has made me distrust him greatly as it seems more of a stunt to win rather than a choice that is best for the country in the event of his demise. Although I'm not 100% fond of Obama's economic ideas, I still respect his character and his judgement.
