Reading that she said the racism didn’t come from Bernie or his staffers, but from other Democrats running events who would accuse her of being an imposter because she was black and supporting Bernie.  Although Biden is the front runner, and she has every right to work where she wants.

Yeah, markets and capitalism are good at generating wealth, so should be minimally interfered with. Discouraging monopolies and protecting people are vague but important. Transit and basic health care seem like good ideas. Manage the currency, tax externalities (carbon and methane and lead and such would be a good

I think we should let prisoners of war vote in their elections back home if it is sufficiently convenient, and our soldiers should still retain the right to vote even if they are being held in a POW camp somewhere. And separating out people who don’t belong in prison is a pretty big glossing over, because selectivly

Well, what it SHOULD do...

Ha, I don’t think he is a dirtbag to my knowledge. He may have the Curse of the Wendigo though so look out for that...

Ya, you aren’t, but his number isn’t all that shocking. Sex with new partners distributes very unevenly amongst guys so a few guys get A LOT and many get none. Kind of like if you were a dollar you might think America was 95% high frequency traders, because they are good at getting dollars but don’t keep them long.

Sexing I think.  I did the same thing.

I don’t think so, if you give someone pictures they can’t blackmail you but they can show them around I think.  You can be mad but you don't have any right to control his behavior that I am aware of.  Maybe they can't distribute them in some states or under certain conditions?

The breeding more idiots part is true, but not coddling idiots to the point that they can’t breed is ethically tough, people can survive on shockingly little if they have to. Maybe education and some kind of financial incentive to be on birth control?

I liked your tale. Secondhand anecdotes seem as trustworthy as cherrypicked clickbait to me.  Keep stories from trusted elders alive!  Not that the Flyers have to keep her music, but judging people from another time out of context seems like a tricky and often unrewarding game.  There is a lot of messed up stuff in US

If you haven’t reached out either aren't you doing the same thing as he is? Unless he’s ignoring you in which case F that guy.

Isn't that what they are doing at the FED?

It is, but designing a system of government for non idiots kind of implies you get rid off all idiots so you don’t have to govern them. Unfortunately idiots have the faith and the numbers and enough guns to win that war pretty easily so...  Obviously debt increases income inequality, so you want a good bankruptcy

Yeah, I believe that. That’s how you help poor people not be so poor, you give them money.  As poorness is a lack of money it helps.  It's inflationary if you print to do it but it's not that inflationary at in small amounts.  And we have a bunch of inflationary and deflationary policies going now, you just have to

Minimum wages are kind of useless to start with.  They help some people, but those people would be better helped in other, cheaper ways.

I mean, obviously we could institute a UBI and help all people, but people have a weird minimum wage fixation. I think it’s because the cost of price controls is hard to visualize, while the benefits are clearly great for those helped. And since basically no one earns or pays minimum wage you get the whole NIMBY thing.

I wouldn't let Obama too far off the hook for the mess we are in, I like the guy, but he was elected to drain the swamp and bring change too.  And he also just handed a ton of cash and above the law cards to his friends.  His first two years he had both houses beyond the possibility of a fillibuster, and this

Unless employers pay them I think.

Well, that would actually save thousands of lives vs our current system of finding someone who loves you enough to have major surgery for free and rich enough to take the time off work and hoping you are compatible or can work out some elaborate swap. Obviously setting donor compensation at $0 does help the health

Er, I imagine that they are still allowing leather, so we can eat them and wear their skin but not if it has hair?
