Friendly reminder that those wonderful sweet justices on the left side of the SCOTUS have no problem making GBS threads all over things like property rights or 2nd amendment rights. They think it's perfectly OK for government to take your land or home and sell it to the highest bidder, and perfectly OK for a city or state to ignore the bill or rights and strip its citizens of their constitutional rights.

The Supreme Court is going to be awful no matter which way the 4-4-1 split eventually breaks.

I smoke the 2nd amendment, sucka.

Also the Supremes should just kick it all at once, no favorites, do it under what's left of Obama's administration, or Clinton's next. Sotomayor can keep chillin' though, she's got it the most together up there.

The McCutcheon decision is actually net positive for people who are worried about the influence of money in politics.

Does this mean we can finally push for a constitutional convention which will be hijacked the moment it actually exists?

I am starting to feel this way. I'm seeing a massive blowback coming from both liberals and conservatives which dud not happen following Citizens United, which I actually saw conservatives defend.

Or do you mean in another way?

Conservatives defended Citizens United because Hillary. Other than that, most people didn't like Mitt Romney coming out swinging for the concept, should have left that to the sharks.

McCutcheon just fulfills all of the hyper-rhetoric both sides have said about each other's pet-elites.

I run my own business and it's a little tricker than that. It took a whole TEN MINUTES of talking to my accountant and then a whole FIVE MINUTES writing out checks to the IRS. Granted I kept my books in ship shape all year round and had everything printed out from quickbooks ready to go. Most business owners are morons when it comes to that poo poo.

Actually, they've been building the Tundra in San Antonio for about a decade. If we can build the Highlander, Sequoia and Sienna in Southern Indiana with no real supplier issues, Texas has nothing to worry about.

From living in both Indiana and Texas, let me tell you, Central Texas' infrastructure is leagues ahead of anything in Indiana.

It's a shame the Texas only has the Tundra from Toyota. That thing is a piece of poo poo and doesn't sell.

So many people parroting "But SoandSO said there should be black only league why isn't he getting in trouble too!? :qq:" and various other white people complaints about society not just ignoring racists and bigots anymore.

I mentioned earlier, there's a shitload of deflection, and gas lighting going on to minorities pretty much everywhere that they try and discuss this with average people. Sterling & Bundy & the next mindless tool are loving heroes now. They've made millions through hard-work, not winning the affirmative action lottery like that thug Magic loving Johnson.

Has anyone else been hearing a lot of rumblings about Dave Camp's tax reform act recently? I've heard from a lot of proponents recently on the academic side of tax professionals so I've been looking into it and it's basically a way to give all the money to the rich/corporations without the obvious ideological bent of Ryan's crazytime budgets. No more AMT, a permanent tax holiday for repatriation of corporate money, and unlimited IRA contributions stand out as obvious 'you gotta be kidding me' provisions. Yet several people who follow these things much more closely than I are making the case that it has a chance.

loving balls

It has a chance because Pfizer is ditching America to go to the UK. It is literal common sense knowledge that the United States is business unfriendly, the corporate taxes are too high here, and you either dodge the taxes, or you pick up and leave to people who will literally pay you to set up shop there.

Business has been very good at recovering, and making sure the Democrats are left a poo poo bag.
