come up with an extreme position

[datasuspect]

and defend it to absurdity until you sound like a caricature of the viewpoint you are espousing.

2. We need a flat tax

we need everyone to pay the same tax rate, I don't care if the poor will be punished, in the end, trickle down economics will bring their income UP and they won't be poor anymore. A flat tax will tax everyone fairly, so someone goes without a meal, or a lot of meals, but in the end (if they live) they won't be complaining anymore because they will be able to afford their taxes. :P

3. You should not shop or work for any company that has execs that make more than

minimum wage. If you do, you're a shitty liberal and you hate unions.

4. Double-reverse inverted cowgirl on trapeze

Is that extreme?

5. I wouldn't call it extreme...

but it sure is fun.

6. We need to take a stand against illegal aliens.

They are kidnapping our rednecks and probing them in strange and usually sexual ways! This has to stop. We need some kind of space aged missile defense system to defend us from the grey menace! We need to make sure those aliens know that we mean business. If they wanna come into this country, they gotta obey our laws. Damn big-eyed greyskins think they can come in here and ignore our laws and customs. In America, if you're gonna probe somebody, you damn well better at least buy 'em dinner first!
