Sadly it looks like it's gonna make it, it's already up over 40k since then.

We have a whole party of insane people who own rubber dinosaur parks and try to block tax appropriation bills, and they control the lower house of our legislature.

There's also the Greens which aren't that far behind, but on the other hand they love to screw over any other vaguely left wing third party and good luck getting any of the minor American leftist parties to stop bickering about petty rifts long enough to put together an actual voting bloc.

So here in Illinois, there's a rule where you have to have a certain amount of signatures to show up on the ballot, but no one checks to see if you actually have enough signatures unless they're challenged(or something similar to that, I don't remember the exact details). There was basically a gentleman's agreement that it's a stupid and outdated rule and that you don't challenge anyone unless it's clearly a joke(ie Mickey Mouse or Ben Dover) or malicious(like 10 misspellings of a candidates name to confuse voters). Even the Democrats and Republicans respected it. Then on the last possible day for the 2012 elections, the Greens challenged every other third party's presidential candidates and got them pulled, even though most of them ended up getting decent vote totals even with just write-in access. It gave the Greens no real advantage because they weren't going to win any electoral votes anyways and pissed off every other third party, but they did it anyways. I have a feeling if we do change, it'll take a long time for all the old grudges to die down.

Kiwi Ghost Chips posted:I'm pretty sure that none of them except for Boyko know about the pony stuff, because most people don't go around helldumping their employees. If he wrote that stuff under another name, sure, but he uses his real name and googling someone you're considering hiring as your CTO is probably a pretty decent idea.

Considering it's a post about My Little Pony porn, I'd assume there's a pony with Apple in their name and it's incest involving them.

Also, someone already mentioned him, but Jack loving Abramoff bears repeating. Dude is scummy as hell even by politician standards.

The fact that rich people only have one vote doesn't really matter when their financing of election campaigns makes it nearly impossible for anti-business candidates to even get on the ballot for one of the major parties unless they were in before the wealth gap started widening again and have incumbent advantage.
