if we just let black people face the same systemic inequality at a slightly higher tax bracket, then cletus and jethro will agree that god guns and abortion are less important than their free college and go get free healthcare.

boom, racism solved.

I like to give them a hard time but in context it does make some sense.

Trump will push undecided voters away from the GOP for years to come once it all comes out.

It's not a good thing he was elected, but it sure will fuck Conservatives pretty bigly.

I'm not even Jewish/Muslim but kosher or halal meats are prepared with alot more care than regular, I always go for it if its an option...just something to consider.

That's true. No self respecting Rabi would ever bless food that wasn't properly prepared.

That said, I prefer Hebrew National franks for the taste alone. They're dynamite!

Right, but you agree that we need regulating bodies for safety reasons, correct? Things like seat-belts, airbags, and warning labels came about because of governmental regulation. The testing required to develop a product that is mostly safe is very expensive. Do you think that companies would still continue to develop safe products if they weren't required to by law? I don't think they would, and I believe with deregulation the cost of goods to the consumer would remain the same while the executives of the major manufacturers line their pockets with newfound profit.

I agree that to enter certain market sectors without being diverse is challenging for businesses in a monetary sense, but don't forget that those product testing regulations exist with the intention of keeping consumers safe.

Thanks for asking your questions in a reasonable manner.

I don't agree that other people have a right to tell you or me what to do, because if they did, that would mean I favor unequal rights, which I don't. So, no, I don't favor government intervention in trade between willing people.

Yes, some companies would make safe products if there was no central authority imposing edicts on them. The reason why is they have a compelling reason to do so, they wish to stay in business.

I think you may not be considering how competition in a free market provides the feedback to "police" bad actors and reward good service providers.

Are you still endorsing private police?

Seriously?

we have no one to blame for whatever 'scent' our children are..they are a product of us.

You see, they're into 'experiences' rather than the gross 'materialism' of Silents and Boomers in keeping up with the Joneses.

Perhaps it was all those McD playgrounds and toy-filled Happy Meals which afforded them 'parenting without being a parent'? Back then, I was wondering what it would do, to grow up this way so different than myself..their moral compasses..the overall effect.

Average donation of Our Revolution is $21.94..Hillary? 144.89.

Her campaign also released a list of campaign bundlers, donors who each raised more than $100,000. Some of the donors included Clinton’s most ardent financial backers, including Hollywood media mogul Haim Saban; Susie Tompkins Buell, a wealthy California investor who was a major donor to the Ready for Hillary super PAC; Las Vegas publisher Brian Greenspun, a longtime friend and college classmate of Bill Clinton; billionaire JB Pritzker of Chicago; and Alan Patricof, a New York-based financier who served as Clinton’s finance chair when she first ran for Senate in New York.

Seems they have a good head on their shoulders imo.

Are you calling black people ignorant?

You don't think they understand the socioeconomic effects of a political, social, cultural, and monetary system designed to oppress them since they earned the right to vote?

Look at black leaders within the black community who voice the same economic issues Sanders championed during the primary. Have you ever heard of Nina Turner?


Sounds pretty racist, bro..

Nina Turner is a fucking Bernie Baby.
My main concerns is/was the SCOTUS seat and the unfair treatment of blacks in our system

I totally agree, I wasn't necessarily agreeing with it but I could see the little nugget of logic hidden in there.

I try to call out the crazy and the correct even if I don't usually agree with the person saying it.

I understand but sometime logic is crazy.

example: If we had more wars we would have a better handle of population control which would help the planet in the long run.

I'm not sure you are equipped to have this conversation, given your incomplete knowledge of how a free market works.

Are you endorsing having police who are funded via force as then being the same entity which will PROTECT people from having others use force against them ? Sounds a little cognitive dissonancy and absurd....because it is.
