"So you are making a comparison then. Play the man for a moment, and admit to it, you snivelling little shit."

I've been saying to Italian since the start that it was an analogy, if you would prefer I call it a comparison when addressing you, then it's a comparison. I hope that suits you and is sufficient enough of an admission.

"Well for fuck's sake, there are people that fuck livestock animals too. Should we use them as the text subject for questions regarding hetero sexuality? "

Not entirely, but I wouldn't say that it isn't a question that should be discussed.

----------------------------------
"In order for there to be a victim, there needs to be a perpetrator. Who would it be in this context? The Government? But that is who most of these taxpayers are addressing their concerns to. "

First you seem to say that someone cannot be a victim to the same entity that they voice their disdain to. In other words, if one is complaining to the government, they can't be a victim to the government?

'"yes, the government would be the perpetrator. Is that invalid that they would voice their concerns to the institution that they think wronged them?"'

"Under this 'logic' we should make requests of rapists not to commit further acts of aggression against women rather than the police. "

I'm just going to have to ask you straight up, what the fuck are you talking about here? Is there some government police that people are supposed to take their complaints about laws, legislation and foreign policy to?

Do you feel that it is unfair that money that you worked for is taken from you and given to others? If it is unfair, then do you not feel that the government has done something wrong? Your ability to not see yourself as a victim is perhaps a testimony to your sense of self reliance.

However, my point, my reason to establish a discussion is that I believe that there are a large group of people who (and this is the important part) who no matter what the situation is (for example a tax increase that does little or nothing towards a welfare program) who will fire up a defense where they view themselves as a victim of a government that is taking their hard-earned money to give others a handout. Yes, I used a comparison to attempt to explain this, mainly because it was something else that put this idea in my head.

Perhaps we disagree with the number of people who have formed their views in this manner. I would say that most people who have wouldn't openly admit or even realize that that was how they came to their beliefs. However, if you believe that there are not people like this in our society, then I have yet to be convinced.
