It’s almost like there were multiple multibillion dollar infrastructure plans funded by other countries that rebuilt Germany instead of punitively sending it into billions of dollars in debt.

She already made her first mistake by throwing Omar under the bus over the AIPAC thing. 

Centrist libs love this culture war bullshit that does nothing to improve anyone’s material conditions. Not surprised by this at all.

I regret that I have but one star. 

“corporate capitalism” is what capitalists use to uphold capitalism, except for the stuff they personally dislike. It’s a distinction without a difference. The use of resources to influence the system is baked into capitalism and you can’t separate the two.

Oh yeah, when I think of unbiased journalism I think of the BBC, who basically paint devil horns on Jeremy Corbyn whenever he’s on screen, and the Economist, who are cheerleading for fascists in South America.

Sure, just ignore all the examples of National single payer being functional and giving better results at lower costs, i.e. almost every other country in the fucking world. Better things aren’t possible because of American exceptionalism. 

It’s almost like single payer needs to be national in order to function. 

Nah, Obama sucks, came in carrying the hopes and dreams of his voters with a huge wave of support, then spent 2 years squandering it and passing a shitty market based health care plan that no one liked, got red waved into irrelevancy, then spent the next 6 years expanding the imperial presidency and droning weddings.

You’re goddamn delusional.

This is the best thing Trump has done and the fact that the National Security blob is crapping their pants over it just makes it clearer that this is the correct course of action. 

So it’ll give more money to post-prison rehabilitation? that strikes me as a good thing?

Ok, this is terrible, but can we just talk for a minute about how boring Evers is? just looking at the guy makes me want to take a nap.

so UBI with means testing. Sounds like shit. 

How to rent a private jet:

It’s really mind boggling how anyone could look at this string of anti police activists dying in mysterious ways and come to any conclusion other than the blindingly obvious one. 

1st amendment says “right to assemble” right there. 

They can already terminate me for any reason they want. The only way to have an equal bargaining position with them is to have solidarity with my fellow workers and act collectively. If only there was some kind of organization that would facilitate that...

quitting does nothing to improve the material conditions of the workforce. Capital will never give you any more than subsistence wages unless forced, and the only route to improving our material conditions is labor militancy. Politicians will not save us.

Striking is a civil right no matter what job you have. If you are not allowed to deny your labor to capital than you are a slave.
