pandering is literally a politician’s job. Why is it bad?

Not that she should run then, but I do believe she would technically be old enough in 2024 as she turns 35 that year - in October before the election. 

And based on what we’ve seen in other countries, the economic toll would have been approximately the same, maybe even not as bad.

I thought they all hated W now because he likes Michelle Obama’s candy.

Getting beaten because you picked the wrong team is just as bad as getting beaten because you are the wrong color or picked the wrong god.

Some other (not quite as great) election news - Steve King lost his seat, although it was to someone as arguably bad as he is, but generally incumbents are harder to beat.

I really wasn’t trying to troll. I seriously wasn’t understanding and appreciate you giving me an actual answer and clarification. I thought you were making the argument that they segregated themselves first and therefore shouldn’t complain (which to be clear I wouldn’t agree with even if it does make “some sense”).

Maybe I’m not understanding you but is this a complicated way of saying “they started it”? Cause that would make some sense i guess.

Right - like even if you add them all together it’s still not enough to give everyone a million. It’s damn difficult to be THIS wrong, but I find a lot of humans don’t understand numbers over a million very well.

This compliant is so tiring.

Although they are basing it on 2019 or 2018 returns, this actually impacts 2020, so you’d actually get a $500 credit when you file your 2020 return if I’m understanding this right.

We are so screwed.

Yeah it’s pretty clear he understands the gravity of the situation at least in that moment. Something the current idiot isn’t capable of.

Is that THE moment he was told? I knew he was reading to kids and that looks like a classroom. I don’t think I’ve ever seen this picture though.

Thanks for confirming my point.

The fact that most of society can’t seem to grasp both of these concepts at the same time is why we are not very good at this. We’ve been trained to think exactly opposite of this.

People will like get “Eid Mubarak” yard signs for the benefit of neighbors that they’re afraid to talk to. 

Pharmaceuticals for one (and you mentioned that one). Homes (building codes), Vehicles (have to be registered).

By the way - the second link shows that only 6.4% of firearms were stolen. A reminder that stolen and purchased privately are two different things. The first link does not appear to separate them out at all but simply says they didn’t own the gun they used which is not the same as stolen.

Thanks for the links. I can think of a few things that are more highly regulated than guns other than pharmaceuticals, but I think your point still stands and seems pointless to debate our opinions of the word heavily.
