Important distinction - she isn't an anti-vaxxer. She PANDERS to anti-vaxxers - every time the subject is brought up, instead of simply answering "no, vaccines are vital" she goes on a whole diatribe about how it's understandable people have concerns about big pharma.

She's not a Nazi, she just PANDERS to Nazis.

Point of order: it is my understanding that everybody incorporates in Delaware because the state has massively streamlined the process (and court system) to make it as efficient as possible in a bid to, well, attract corporations to incorporate in Delaware. Not tax purposes.

Also since everybody else incorporates in Delaware most corporate lawyers are extremely well-versed in Delaware law. It is a positive feedback loop.

Point of order who loving cares, the original point still stands.

Personally, I've always been in favor of the Singaporing model. Just have the government own most of the apartments.


How does rent control "drive up prices"?

Let's say I, the property owner, want to earn $100 in rent. I have five apartments I can rent. Four of those are rent controlled at $10 per unit, as that is the rent the person agreed to when they moved in. The fifth unit is one I choose to rent at $60, in order to maintain the building, keep up with property taxes, and make the rest of my $100.

Tonight's debate will be a good barometer of how competent the Hillary campaign is.

Pence is a trained, disciplined politician who is going to come out swinging, armed with all the attacks Ailes and Bannon have ever fantasized about delivering. If the campaign has drilled Kaine well enough to turn the tables on a berserking Pence, I'll be a lot more confident in their ability to see out the next 5 weeks. On the other hand, if we see Kaine spend the entire night defending attacks on Hillary, the media narrative will flip, and the Trump campaign halts its death spiral when they aren't playing defense.

With all the absolute poo poo on his record, what with fetal funerals and all, he is a prime candidate to be a tomato can in 4 years. You couldn't ask for a better opponent, except possibly another attempt by Trump.

One thing that really frustrates me about a lot of this is that parts of the media are calling it "lewd comments" and not "admitted sexual assault"

The media calls it "Admitted Sexual Assault" and Trump sues whichever org. did so and ties them up in court for years.

They call it "Lewd Comments", and it's broad enough to cover the monstrous and abhorrent things Trump has said, without the room for litigious response.

So we keep hearing "worse is coming."

Why is it good for there to be worse? Donald was never going to win, and now he's really, really not ever going to win. The republican party probably won't make it out of this intact either. But if it's something really terrible, like domestic abuse of wives/children, that's just going to hurt his victims. If he's hurling insults at his base, that's just going to make it easier for them to move on to the next bigoted demagogue who crops up in 2018. If "worse" is him expressing his racism directly, it's not like that would create a rational, open-minded discussion of racism in the US.

Don't get me wrong, I think Donald Trump is human garbage in every conceivable way. But is there any real positive to more scandal, aside from the warm fuzzy we get when we see an rear end in a top hat get what they deserve? Haven't we already gotten that now?

Basically: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UcZzlPGnKdU

Couple of pages back, but, Downballot Voter Depression is where the good in the worse comes in. The more the field is winnowed down to the utterly unshakable core of Trumpites, the more and more the Senate and House come into play.
