Koalas March posted:Because whenever representation is brought up someone almost always comes out of the woodwork to shut it down or bitch at me about why I care. Mild spoilers, but still His storyline ended up not mattering to the outcome, but it was still a very core part of the film. He basically just got hosed over because the Empire actually decided to have a basic modicum of security on their god damned flag ship for once. He still had a lot of great scenes, both action and comedy. And he definitely came off better than Poe because more than anything, TLJ was 2 and half hours of just making GBS threads on him for trying to look heroic instead of actually thinking. Also, Rey does some cool stuff and learns that there is a lot more to being a good person than just achieving the title of Jedi Edit: Trump Thread II: Star Wars chat, itt The Glumslinger fucked around with this message at 00:38 on Dec 22, 2017 |

I mean, Dr Frankenstein was both completely reckless in his actions, and then spent forever trying to avoid having to pay the price for his actions until he gives in and dooms the world (at least if I'm remembering the book correctly, and I'm probably not)

Mantis42 posted:I work at Dollar General. Half of our customers are on food stamps and basically all our employees are. This is a predominantly white suburb in a red state. loving with food stamps wouldn't be something you could just sweep under the rug. They'll just blame "those people" for abusing the system and wrecking it for hardworking folks like them

The big question is will he go out and campaign and whether the candidates actually want him to do so? I could easily him trying to throw a billion rallies next year since its only in his life that he enjoys besides lying about his golf score.

Chadderbox posted:According to my two Puerto Rican coworkers with family still there, no it's not. The situation is somewhat stabilized but something like half the island is in the planning or execution stages of moving to the mainland because they have no faith in the federal government to address the issues on the island. What states are they primarily moving to? Besides Florida, obviously

Bottom Liner posted:What are you talking about? What is the context for the image you're replying to? Blue states are investigating options so taxes don't go up for their residents while still maintaining full funding, while also giving the finger to the feds One of the options is literally switching to more corporate taxes over income tax, but that is still to regressive for some in this thread I guess

TheNewt posted:You literally have no clue what minorities in this country are going through and you are sitting around having orgasms because someone who makes 500k has to pay a bit more in taxes. And its not like those extra taxes are going to actually help anyone, its just paying for a tax cut for those even richer assholes. Tax raises need to be used to help the people on the bottom, not on the top.

When people can deduct local property taxes from their federal, they're gonna be more likely to vote for bonds and props that raise their property tax to fund it. Without that, thee funding sources are going to be lost

VitalSigns posted:Then let's raise state taxes and build affordable housing in those areas, rather than give the top 1% more tax breaks that will only be used to bid up property prices in those areas of restricted supply, what do you think about that? We have plenty of room to do that because the feds just gave corporations a huge handout and we can take from that. I think we all agree on this We need to do poo poo to fix the situation in many cities, rising rents, rising house costs, worse traffic from everyone being forced to live further from where they work, etc We have a lot of inter-related issues that need to be fixed, without getting into obvious things like UHC, and the last thing we should be using tax dollars for is to pay for corporate tax cuts and estate tax cuts
