I think everyone should pay their fair share in taxes.  I think beyond that, it’s extortion or form of socialism.  If they want to “give” let them give...but let’s not tax them as some attempt at wealth distribution.

While I do accept the notion that jazz music, a distinctly black for of music, is a significant art form indigenous to this country...it is far from the only one. White people have brought to this nation a culture that is uniquely independent, innovative, freedom seeking, work oriented, law centered and exceptional

Any more so than a firstborn fourth-generation? To be honest, maybe less. You have nothing to live up to. The family already has the first-born on these shores, the first to attend college, the first to buy a home, the first to “make it.” The only first left is the first to fail. That is pressure.

A coincidence, nothing more.  Truth is truth whether or not you have an advocate or not.

Yes, of course it will. He’s special. Bill is also very special.

It is so sad that Democratic leadership cares so little about the American people that they would let this happen.

I hope you sent this article to Chuck and Nancy.  After Trump’s recent proposal, the shutdown is on them.

Adoption is so important. Christians are adopted into God’s family through faith in Jesus, so there is a spiritual component to adoption. But, it is not strictly an answer to abortion, but it does provide a solid solution for women who want to bring life into the world but can’t parent.

Every adoption begins with loss...the child loses their birth parents, the birth parents lose the ability to parent the child, and the adoptive parents in most cases are struggling with the loss of their ability to procreate themselves.  There is hurt and regret all around in cases...but at least there are the cases. 

I agree with this perspective.  Adoption isn’t really the answer to abortion.  It can certainly provide a wonderful and thoughtful substitute.  But, the answer to abortion is actual people being intentional about sex, family planning, and creating a path forward out of mistakes that don’t involve taking a life but

I wouldn’t call him the greatest president, but he has been pretty good.  

I want to know how we could be ranked the most racist country in the world when you have China, India, Mexico, Germany, Sweden, THE MIDDLE EAST, Argentina, Brazil etc...as part of the world.  I am calling BS on that.

I love how Kushner, who has been with this administration for 2yrs and worked diligently with Pence on this proposal is “over his head” or a “nonentity” but we laud these Freshman women congressman even though they believe the world will end in 12yrs.  Yeah, that makes sense.

I think Kushner is the guy for the job. His work with Pence on this deal is inspiring and despite conservative backlash the move for DACA was the right thing to do and allows for negotiation furhter...it isn’t amnesty.

I agree.  I also don’t like the idea of not wearing any logo.  

As Elvis taught us so long ago: “Take a loot at you and me, are we too blind to see, do we simply turn our heads and look the other way...” -In The Ghetto

Yeah, I mean I am a white male and I prefer to just listen and empathize with other races who have a legitimate POV.  Ultimately though, this is 2018 and I can’t do anything about the North Atlantic Slave Trade, Segregation or Jim Crow.  I have to make choices and seek opportunity for me.  Some breaks go my way, some

As the old saying goes, “lies, damn lies and statistics.”  Numbers and math can be used to prove anything.  We need a better metric.

I agree.  The conversation should center around opportunity and inclusion, who cares about the wage?  Let the studios decide who gets what.  They know all the factors.  You hire Gina you make a 10% profit.  Yo hire Gabrielle, 3%.  You bring Bryce Dallas Howard and you make 32%.  The wage works itself out from there.

I think the backlash against Rodriguez is unnecessary and overly critical. Economic disparity is a difficult space to enter and she did it with class and empathy.
