The slippery slope argument is a logical fallacy. Also, both your examples are dumb. You can’t legislate out desk jobs, nor can you legislate condom use (how, exactly, do you see enforcement of that working?). That doesn’t mean you shouldn’t legislate against other acts of stupidity that harm society as a whole.

I personally cannot understand why someone wouldn’t wear a seatbelt and maybe in America it’s okay to make that decision yourself. In a country with public healthcare though, the tax payer ends up paying for your preventable injuries. Also, if you’re in the back seat without a seatbelt, there’s a good chance you would…

In Holland (Europe) some 20 years ago insurance companies refused to cover the police force, as they had too many high speed crashes. Black boxes recording the last 45 seconds were installed (continually deleting what happened before those 45 seconds, and freezing if an accident occurred). Predictably the accident…

I know you’re joking but a fantasy themed Battle Royale game would actually be right up my alley.

I made a new character just for survival. Spawned in at Vault 76, encountered a lvl150ish guy, then we proceeded to emote at each other for a few minutes before I went on my merry way. Made it all the way through Flatwoods and and had just reached the Morgantown airport part of the storyline when I made it to the top…

It was more “lies in the tabloid press about over-regulation that was never actually proposed” - especially articles written by Mr Boris Johnson who just made stuff up because he was too lazy to do his job when he lived in Brussels.

Very true. Alfas should come with a separate odometer that tracks miles towed. 

You do know the EU is not some evil overlord ruling Europe, but comprised of countries, right? As far as my own country goes, the government is all but for stricter rules and benefits to copyright-holders (not actual artists or creators) and would have passed something like Article 13 in a heart-beat. With or without…

The sad thing is that the only person who isn’t a Hanbei fan would be Hanbei.

You have incredible patience here. This entire thread is absurd.

These bad-faith assholes who are flooding the comments are here to sow discord. Let’s just get that out of the way.

Right he’s no better than Trump or Clinton. He’s old and black too. He opposed gay marriage and said “God Bless America” when given the chance. He even wore a tan suit.

Barack has nothing to apologize for. He can windsurf until the end of time, for all I care.

Here we go: Why should I vote? Obama and Trump are the same.

Your name checks out.

I dunno Splinter millennials, Obama got elected twice under long odds. Maybe we should listen to his advice.

I’m all for a good debate and an argument on policies and ideas. We’ve got lots of candidates in the mix, rather than one single party-anointed one, and that’s a good thing.

To be clear, under capitalism, most of us have some form of economic anxiety, and in certain swing states this absolutely held some sway.
