What political view of yours is furthest from the mainstream?

[Clark Kent]

Raise social security age to 67

*gasp* 67!? How radical of you!

Raising it even one month get a massive outcry by most people

I support privatizing it completely, so...

IMO:

Hitler went too far
Stalin should have killed less people
Nelson Mandela was a good person
A mandatory death penalty for littering would probably be a bad idea
Chocolate tastes nice

You monster!

since several people have mentioned cars, here's one:

The left lane shouldn't just be for cars going 15 mph over the speed limit. There shouldn't be a problem with slower drivers using it.

- Killing any vertebrate animal should be illegal. (How do we expect to eat,

awhile back i sort of entertained the idea of replacing it with an annuity system. but from what i read the transfer costs would be much higher than just raising the cap.

the government should just get out of marriage already

In a world of poverty and malnutrition,I don't think it would be wise to do that, and there will be a massive shortage of foods.

Not that I don't think it's a stupid idea, but animal rearing is an extremely inefficient form of agriculture, due to land use, trophic levels and etc. If anything we need to kill less animals ifbwe are go be serious about feeding the world's poor.

Meat grown in vats will let us eat meat sustainably. Hopefully people get over the initial squick over the idea.

As for views furthest from the mainstream, I recall around half the social liberals here supporting legal polygamy (not including myself). That would be out of the mainstream, although I doubt it would be a priority for any of them.

As an Illinoisan, I consider this to be by far the most offensive thing in this thread.

[100% pro-life no matter what]

-Ban the income tax entirely (it's technically theft as mentioned above)
-Punish abortion in the exact same way as first-degree premeditated murder
-Ban public consumption of cigarettes and cigars
-Age limits are discriminatory (and, yes, I'm an adult), but there needs to be something keeping a 4-year old from voting randomly (I'm not sold on a tax or a test, so I don't know how)
-In an ideal world, I would ban alcohol, but that is not economically realistic
-Repeal educational privacy laws (students should have access to the grades of their peers)
-Ban gay adoption (for the sake of the kids)

More cultural, but:
-I am really concerned by how many people have "casual s*x" or "one night stands"
-I am not convinced that transgenderism is a real thing
-Everything should be "Merry Christmas", not "Happy Holidays" (I'm fine with an additional mention of Hanukkah)
-I think that no one should ever get drunk or high
-The largest group of modern-day racists is the Black Lives Matter movement, and the largest group of modern-day sexists is the Feminist movement

Are you sure you aren't jealous that the gays are getting more booty than you every will?

Why the hell did you censor the word "sex"?

Because I wasn't sure if Atlas would have some filter stopping me from using that word

Two more that I forgot:

-I believe that the free market requires all forms of gambling to be legal and unregulated
-I don't think that animals should have any rights

[RINO Tom]

So you think I should be able to buy dogs so that I can just beat the sh^t out of them?  That's just uncivilized.

[TNF]

well there's the whole 'burn the rich, class war now' thing and also the 'monogamous family unit is the source of women's oppression' thing

[FEMA Camp Administrator]

Two more that I forgot:

-I don't think that animals should have any rights

So should we legalize bestiality because animals have no rights, and legalize prostitution because we need a truly free market?

Balanced Budget Amendment

Um.... Universal healthcare without the health "advisory board" and no individual mandates or government ownership of companies. Basically DeanCare.
