Extinction doesn't loving control 3/4ths of state government, both houses of Congress, the judiciary, and the executive, you dumb loving loser. You respond to a tantrum by doubling down and tantruming harder. That's how you WIN.

My Imaginary GF posted:Do y'all understand how our public institutions came to be? Hatred of identities. We got social security because it took from minorities to give to white women. We got school lunches and national fire codes out of hatred for catholics. We got a standardized rail gauge out of hatred for southerners. We got prohibition out of a hatred for germans, and repealed it out of a hatred for women. You're a lot less funny when there are people out there actually saying this dumb poo poo.

You can't have gender equality without criminalizing adultry. How the gently caress else ya gonna get political systems on board than making it a holier than thou moral crusade?

Your solution to rural poverty is to ask 'what has American done for urban poors'; that don't play in Peoria.

I have friends that have escaped rural communities to live in cities, and they don't even think about going back to help, even if they're involved in politics. Once you've moved to the city, the problems of racism and sexism remain a daily part of your life while the problems of rural America aren't. If you're a capable person growing up in a rural area, you're probably moving to the city for the opportunities there. Just a bad situation all around.

ATC isn't going to be privatized, the user fees would make it way more expensive to fly private aircraft which is why it hasn't been done already. I doubt Trump will be on board with that.

I doubt Trump will be on board with that. Why can't we privatize ATC and give a nice big tax break for private jet fees too? I bet a Trump can get behind a reduction in private jet fees.

Someone mentioned to me that the Clinton Foundation is corrupt because it "paid for Chelsea Clinton's wedding." I heard this before, but never from a reputable source. Is this simply based on a Wikileaks released email whose context or truthfulness we do not know? It seems to me like it would have made headlines if true.
