Fortunately, the repubs are not empowered to prevent it. Should Reagan have received book deal ? He got $2 million just for a speech in Japan so.....?

Abortion is the law if the land just as owning a semi-automatic assault weapon.

How does that square with the righteous here ? Just against who or what do people in the US plan on assaulting ?

'so called "ethics" of a deed might go against morality. Yes, and it is called being unethical.

Ethics are a by-product of morality. If one is moral, they will be ethical.

Filling in but yes, I sure do. I miss now, even just a trustworthy govt.

Almost the entire world is corrupt with some of the more powerful using what power they can for advantage. The US and most of the west feel as did other societies for centuries...might makes right.

Yes, I grew up thinking that America was a successful exception to the corrupt world. [She] instead is under the control of elites who simply do not care for democracy and want monolithic power, use their power.

Yes...the world is doomed to a one world, capitalist fascism.

Look how fast both Russia and China have become just that.

First, the capitalist loves a profit and any prospective profit center having no other values especially moral values. Doesn't matter if it is a dictator, corrupt, takes bribes or even violently vicious. Just as long as there's money to be made.

The US is a state capitalist country. Notice the bailouts, subsidies, price supports and several govt.-run, single payer insurance programs added to countless billion$ in loan guarantees to corp. America.

China is the role model having gone to the next step from state capitalism to capitalist fascism.

This would be the worst possible function of public schools. Religion belongs at home or in church if at all and because...religion poisons everything.

We know, he a Repub. Repubs get away with all of the adultery, whoremongering and lies they want.

But when Clinton was forced to testify in a civil suit financed by the right, (6 years and $60 million) he was not fit to be pres.and the house being repub, voted for impeachment.

So, you are saying christians so fickle in the credulity of their faith, feel trump's sinning is not the same ? Just another example of not only how believers cherry pick their moral values but also for politically partisan reasons.

You are correct about the dems until after WWII. Then over dispute over the CRA and Brown v Bd. of Educ., those racists dems quit the party and most became repubs. Strom Thurmond became an independent actually thinking he could get elected POTUS.

With the repubs actually being capitalists first, saw a profit center in hiring cheap black labor and reserve the best jobs for whitey.

Once the repubs helped end chattel slavery they (circa 1860s 70s) became partners with British and European bankers first in destroying (ending) Lincoln's greenback, then enshrining the corporation to very successfully put all poor into debt slavery.

How is it people feel themselves so aware of what all of these terms mean yet constantly fail to see that socialism in the US is alive and well...for the rich.

Our plutocrats in govt. have forced the taxpayers to throw trillion$ at the capitalist for 60 years. The govt. forces the socialization (taxpayers) to insure against bank risk, agric. risk, pension theft and overseas investment risk.

The whole ethanol market was created by socialism to the tune of billion$ every year to produce millions of gallons...the public doesn't need or want.

The govt. forces taxpayers to provide price supports to dairy because dairy producers/investors bribe govt. feeling entitled to produce 3 times what the market demands.

Obviously that over-supply would deflate the price, so the govt. steps in and buys all it can using it for the military and often gives it away. The US taxpayers spends million$ per year just to store govt. dairy products.

This renders the whole argument about socialism only so much bullshit. The US yearly provides billion$ in socialism only the capitalist can love.

As for socialism for the poor ? Fuck them, let them go to jail or just die.

Rather capitalism is destroying the market by not paying its participants. Govt. creating dependencies ? That's a good one. Much more like the capitalist is creating those dependencies.

Reduce the markets buying power everyday means debt and the capitalist has very successfully driven the country into $71 trillion of debt going up $6 million per minute.

Rather, the govt has convinced people that laws of both marketplace and taxes should favor capital and the corp. to inspire growth...that never occurs.

People without capital which is by far most people...are not capitalists at all. Capitalism requires capital. As for choice, the US govt. has chosen to initiate forces of capital and govt. against the poor.

The capitalist is among the least self sufficient in economy, always with his hand out to govt.

Is he going to pay the $3 billion ? Fuck Booker amd Amazon.

How is it that corps. need not reflect the conservative philosophy of individual responsibility but it's oh for them to always have their hand out for corp. welfare ?

Do not waste your time. Everybody knows that life and the earth exist and people are here...for a profit. And to think, they tell us it was god. What bullshit hey ?

Please specify upon what the dems have been big spenders.

Let me see, did they pass two huge tax cuts to borrower trillion$ for 2 wars ? NO.

Did they legally prohibit neg. a discount for medicare party D drugs ? NO

Did they sign off on $1.3 trillion F-35 program that went to $1.9 trillion ? NO

Did they sign off on two $9 billion aircraft carriers for went to $13 billion each ? NO

Did they sign off on $12 billion in tariff relief for farmers ? NO

Just another bit of right wing propaganda that seems toi live on. Never mind that it is the dems that are the small govt. fiscal conservatives of the last 25 years.

It's a good thing that no fact or extrapolation of fact exists in science proving or even indicating any religious belief is the basis of intelligence and in fact, is...quite the opposite.

Ethnically, jews are semites as are arabs, brothers under the skin. So there must be equally intelligent muslims as such assessments are far too subjective.

Another debate posed on the basis of what somebody...wants to believe.

The interesting thing is what the right does in their in dissemination of data. The source says here's what we see as what we would and would like...you to believe.

Recipients and sources of data then agree that true, [it] is what we both want to believe, so we'll go about making our arguments based on those fake facts.

Then it creates a glaring hypocrisy when we hear things like "corrupt Hillary' because of course everybody just wanted to believe she was.

But then inexplicably voted in scum that they knew was corrupt and maybe the most corrupt in at least a century. Now the right is even trying carry trump's water for him or..or Mitch Mcconnell another piece of scum, is really POTUS

Because they see America as not that different than Mexico...requiring 3-6 jobs just to survive. The food is better and some...still Mexican.

It bothers me that.....

Trump is anywhere within 200 miles of DC or me.....

It bothers me that the morality of the right has shown itself what we should have known since Reagan...completely gone.

Speaks to the amazing credulity of the masses to ridiculously quote of all things, the bible, what is a stone age fairy tale...about economic and politics as it might relate to illiterate stone age peasants.

Trump is completely compromised by Putin, is a Russian asset and truly now a national security risk.

Capitalism is not only not free enterprise, it is not real enterprise at all. Capitalism is money-ism. Capitalism is speculation, debt and turning paper into money. Capitalism involves no labor, that is reserved for whoever the capitalist speculates on or...invests in.

Capitalism is hardly dead, it thrives on a total US debt of $71 trillion, going up $6 million a minute.

Capitalism has its firm grip on govt. with all of that 'capital'...being free speech.[sic]

Truly facing [it], crony, greedy capitalism won the 20st century and has most successfully in partnership with having successfully bought and owned govt. especially as exemplified by the latest of several tax giveaways...thrives in the 21st.

More accurately, [it] has remained un-ethical and unreasonable where greed rules everyday and has survived quite well, while humans do not exist and are...,merely profit centers.

So what ? Marriage is irrelevant, Govt. has a tax subsidy for ALL babies.

Socialism is alive and well in the US...for the rich.

Just ask bankers, federal insurance, farmers with federal crop insurance then pensions and overseas investors also get federal insurance.

Then there is dairy price supports. Do you get price or income support ?

Then ethanol is billion$ in corn welfare. (socialism)

TARP, the S&L bailout cost the taxpayers trillion$. Socialism for wall street even comes with $37 million in bonuses.

He just may get his damn wall because of our repub autocratic cowards in the senate and because there is no evidence or history that even suggests the SCOTUS will stick to the constitution.

If you are of today's right, you...sue everybody. Or just like trump got sued...by everybody.

Because the right today refuses to accept that in Mussolini's own words (1933 and 1939) took Italy to a corporatist/capitalist fascism. (Mussolini invented the word fascism) from fascismo...1915.

[He] said capitalism/corporatism and fascism was the ideal state and a...state at war.

Come on blogroids, we are being told that whites hate blacks and far too many do but because [they] will not...work for nothing.

Blacks hate whites because they only hire them to...work for nothing. Where's the debate ? Goes back 170 years.

The right already knows that if you are a farmer they'll pay you for not working and if you are in dairy, the right will pay you for two parts of 3...the market doesn't want.

Just how does the right gives socialism such a bad name when they love socialism...for them...and their kind ?

Well the cure of course is as easy as good ole capitalist bribery using all of that free speech [sic] in the bank, we get that $15/hr. and call it capital gains and I get rich on $12.

Just as if I made $15 billion and paid only $2. Isn't that precious ?

Yet when the nazis assumed power did in fact become capitalist fascists. They were as politically right wing as Mussolini's fascist Italy. [They] stole everything they could get to including taking all Jewish wealth.

Naxis commanded the economy and it was a for-profit capitalist society thanx in large part to $30 billion from the US fed.

ALL work is done by somebody's labor. Labor is the real wealth. Then 95% of labor is what grows, provides revenue for and profits a business. The question is always just how to divide those revenues and profits.

Labor under high growth and high income taxes got 30-33% of that. Now under only slightly lower taxes...get 10% of those revenues and profits despite a 30-40% increase in labor's productivity since 1980.

I call that a re-distribution of wealth from labor to capital.

'Without labor, you have no capital.' A. Lincoln

A condition of absolute power to the ruling class would be fascism. (see Mussolini)

In fact to suggest that socialism is anything made up of or about the power of the ruling class...is a non sequitur.

Oh hey capitalism is great isn't it ? For the poor that is. ($71 trillion in total US debt, with $114 trillion in unfunded liabilities, going up a combined $13 million per minute)

The secret is to be a banker farmer, in the MIC, ethanol producer. You see how those socialists so depend on the welfare.

What concerns you has been going on for millenia. What about it ?

You should state your own 'new' marriage policy and tell your state govt., the major govt. that sanctions marriage.

Is this from the OK. chamber of commerce ? Nice pics though. I'll put OK down for my retirement country cruise all around the country visiting all of the greasy spoon, stuff floating on my coffee restaurants.

Filling in to get this in.....

Well now we know what you...want to believe.

In an honest admin. Barr does nothing. If he steps in, then the fix is in and we'll see the first successful Russian inspired digital coup as allowed by the Reprussians...in the US senate.

Once again, the American people must reply upon an honest court to reveal to the public the complete corruption of the trump admin.

Why shouldn't Putin feel that US elites being a bunch of greedy power hungry capitalists, the republican party couldn't also be bought by him and his oligarchs just as corps. buy republican's profitable policies.

Having million$ even billion$ of free speech [sic] in the bank to speak very loudly for the opulent few, is the American way now.

What world have you been watching ? There is a mountain of evidence of collusion and many other crimes. People do not plead guilty and get prison time without compelling evidence.

Mueller report in its entirety should be made public. If not, then this admin. really has something more to hide. Oh and Jeff Sessions was also 'trump's' AG

Yea, so what ? First there is way too much emphasis given to the DOW, it being only 30 stocks out of 1000s. Second, [it] has companies weighted according to certain criteria.

For example: 28 stocks in the DOW can remain unchanged or even go down while McDonalds and Walmart only, do go up, often moves the whole DOW up.

Furthermore 90% of stocks are owned by about 10-15% of the people. So the benefit to society at large is very little.

Never heard of subsequent fetishization of the day-dream of a collective conscience, is exactly why collectivist attempts decline into centralized tyranny. What follows is then...a strawman: When the reality that people are always individuals and are rarely unanimous dashes collectivist hopes, those with enough strength in numbers will suppress or eliminate dissent as they always have.....

Just what are collectivist hopes?

Hillary is a corrupt bag of shit who has flip flopped on 100s of issues and is far from a social democrat, she was a right winger most of her career and pretends to be a progressive while being nothing but a wall street blow job machine.

Because [she] was and still only at best a suspect but by your terms, a great right wing candidate for the 'Rs,' you must have agreed that she was insufficient as a mere amateur.

So the right went for the real pro scumbag who really knows how and made a career of...how to lie, con and ripoff bankers and contractors. Plus the added gift of the cultivation of Russian oligarch financial backing of the republican party and just screw the US national security interests.

Their platform will be, "Shouldn't the US get along better with Russia ?" Innocent enough hey ?

But wait, socialism usually means you give up a lot of individual freedom. Socialism usually requires authoritarian governments.....

_

Neither of those are true at all. How is there less freedom and more authoritarianism under socialism ?

Where do people get this stuff ? Socialism is a form of economic system that can do quite well under democracy and especially the socialism for the rich the capitalist so loves in the US now.

Fascism however there is no you, there is no social-anything. Fascism is a system that thrives under the only economy acceptable...capitalism. (Mussolini) Under fascism, it is all govt. control of everything including you. Fascism is power, profits and war...call it sort-of-a a for-profit communism.

First, how do you know they are gay ? If they made it obvious to you, then yes by their action, you have a right to feel uncomfortable.

Now imagine a straight woman among a group of men that she can tell by their talk and approach...are straight. Should she feel uncomfortable.

The worst possible future one could imagine and yet another example of how...religion poisons everything.

Asshole-in-chief as advocated violence many times, even claiming [he] will pay their atty. fees. Every neo nazi, totalitarian and fascist was listening. Some are acting on it.
