We know the old arenas are turned into tourist attractions for Capitol residents. It could work with the right theming and the understanding visitors aren't folks from the districts.

The artwork is a little stupid but I think they're a great idea so long as no establishments are being coerced to put them in. An all-gender bathroom serves many needs as have been pointed out above. Next step - spreading word about establishments with gender neutral facilities and giving them your business. Others…

Personally, I don't include tea partying on my resume for a few reasons. 1) It's irrelevant. 2) That's done on my time as a private citizen, neither as a representation of my employer nor on company time. 3) As a libertarian, I don't align with them 100%, which gets awkward regardless of the interviewer's…

Maybe I get a lot of deaf people on my flights? When we're in the same row and I can hear the kid screaming nonstop from Chicago to San Francisco, I don't know how the parents don't hear it.

I like to substitute "child" with "drug" and "home" to illustrate the difference. I like having a roof over my head. Without that, I would consider myself homeless, not home-free. I'm not a drug user, nor do I want to be. Therefore I call myself drug-free, not drugless.

Why is everybody assuming I am against paying any taxes? I believe we should be taxed for the items laid out in Article I, Section 8 of the Constitution. I believe state and local government should tax for services they provide that the people want (i.e. utilities). I object to conflating taxation with charity.

Actually, he did. As someone linked above, Jesus said to give Caesar what was Caesar's (taxes) and God what was God's (charity). They are two different things and I object to the conflation of taxes and charity.

Paraphrasing, Jesus said to give Ceasar what was Caesar's (taxation) and to God what was God's (charity). I never said I was anti-tax nor did I say I was anti-charity. I am against conflating taxation with charity. They are not the same.

Government money doesn't always go to the ones who need it either, but I have far less control over where my tax dollars go than I do my private dollars.

The federal government is supposed to fund roads. However, that's not a safety net nor is it charity. Hospitals and justice systems tend to be state/local matters.

Straw man argument. I didn't say I was opposed to paying taxes. The last time I checked, roads were not considered part of the safety net. I object to the conflation of charity and taxation. They are not the same thing, and your argument accidentally points that out.

Hi. Actual Tea Partying Christian reading Jezebel. I do believe in helping the poor. I believe in helping the poor by private charity, which is voluntary. Taxation is neither voluntary nor charity.
