He actually makes very good points TEK....
No felony convictions my friend- I always have lawyer money. Always.
Anecdotal experience is usually where personal alignments transpire politically... I lost my fucking house thanks to bush, and Obama sure didn't help me get it back. I'm doing that.
Politics mean nothing. The world economy drives everything everyone does- and we all have a gigantic ten foot dick up our asses courtesy of those who pull the financial strings. War will not ruin us, politicians will not ruin us, terrorism will not ruin us... we just need to continue down the road we are on of the calculation of asset transfers due to compound interest magic as actual earned income and we will fall. We need no help at all.
Brutus how is it 'oversight' when the watching eye is installed and paid for by those that are to be monitored?

You don't think politicians, or government in general, had anything to do with asset transfers and compound interest magic?

You do have valid points...I can see where they stem from. However, we will never see eye to eye on the economic issues. I want as little government intervention as possible and everything privatized, more competition in the market benefits the consumer. I don't agree with government bailouts, this isn't how the system was designed to work. The cream rises, inferiors fail, it will balance itself. Such is the course of nature...
Same beliefs I hold across the the board, survival of the fittest. If you have no education and no skills, cant feed yourself and your 8 kids....guess what??? Shouldn't have had 8 kids. Cold-blooded but it's what I believe. I believe we build a stronger country by building stronger communities, and stronger communities start with stronger families. Raise your kids, discipline them, educate them, teach them the value of hard work. Teach them they reap what they sow, work hard and start with fiscal responsibility early in life. Life's hard, so lace em up and kick todays ass. I'm young so I suck it up hit it hard and try to put some coin away like everyone else, live the American Dream, maybe own a home one day. I volunteer and take care of my family and my community when I can, hopefully If I catch a bad break I will get a hand up from them without having to ask for it. That's about as much "security" as I got...other than that a ninja better get AFLAK.
I tell these motherfuckin bums the same shit as the ones that panhandle me on the street
"got a dollar?"
"I'm broke too...life's hard. Hug or a tissue?"
TEK if you can find me an office holder that has 'values' that are not funded by someone, let's have it. These people have a 'price' not values - all of them, they are not real. Where does Cruz's money come from? Christian special interest? I garuntee it, ill bet my shutdown balls on it.
Follow the money -
Cruz's is top donor this ejection cycle was Wilks Brothers. One of those brothers is a Christian extremist who is declaring 'war' on essentially anything he sees as unholy (gays, mormons, freedom etc...). He wants the bible to be used as the blueprint for everything from elections to public and foreign policy, all the way down to making it the main text book used in public schools. Where have we seen this before? Islamic Fundamentalism? And for anyone that is about to call me an islamophobe and a hate monger - I INCLUDES CHRISTIANITY IN THIS!!! Look at the horrifying shit they have been doing to people for centuries.
I never said he was Hitler. You can find quote after quote from maniacs in charge of any significant number of people just like this. They have used this same language to commit unspeakable atrocities over and over - It's been happening forever.
It's a red flag and those that don't see it as dangerous are asleep. If you spent any time in the middle east as a peace keeper in the last 20 years - that's what you were fighting.

@flenser brought up the real deal, Cruz is in bed with some very powerful men.
http://www.infowars.com/the-men-behind-ted-cruz-neocons-and-a-cia-propagandist/
But remember...I never said I'm Cruz's big fan boy.
I just have conservative beliefs and values by many people's standards, and this was the option that was presented to us. For the time being I still hold fast to the idea that Cruz is a better Republican candidate, and I think Trump is feeling it. He's done a good job of stealing the limelight and overshadowing the competition, however outside of the incendiary remarks Cruz made concerning "New York values" and the results of last night...Trump should be feeling the heat.
I really just meant it doesn't matter if we continue to engage in the status quo- it can't get any worse because we are already on a collision course that is inevitable. I see where my generalized statement didn't make that clear. Our choice of another bad politician won't break us because the previous choices already have broken us.

The disabling force of debt was recognized more clearly in the 18th and 19th centuries (not to mention four thousand years ago in the Bronze Age). This has led pro-creditor economists to exclude the history of economic thought from the curriculum. Mainstream economics has become censorially pro-creditor, pro-austerity (that is, anti-labor) and anti-government (except for insisting on the need for taxpayer bailouts of the largest banks and savers). Yet it has captured Congressional policy, universities and the mass media to broadcast a false map of how economies work. So most people see reality as it is written – and distorted – by the One Percent. It is a travesty of reality.

Donald Trump condones this forum when asked in a public interview.
Sounds like we're still screwed one way or another.. I'm all for the flat tax, enforcing legal imigration like they should've been, I can care less about special interest like lgbt idiots they are only maybe 2% in this country, destroy Isis , let the Middle East figure they're problems after that since it's a thousand year old religious war over some damn desert land, energy independent , and start up oil drilling again ,
Where they stand: Candidate vs. candidate
Compare candidates across major issues of the tumultuous 2016 election season

Pfattheicher S, Schindler S. Misperceiving Bullshit as Profound Is Associated with Favorable Views of Cruz, Rubio, Trump and Conservatism. PLoS ONE 2016;11(4):e0153419. Misperceiving Bullshit as Profound Is Associated with Favorable Views of Cruz, Rubio, Trump and Conservatism
The present research investigates the associations between holding favorable views of potential Democratic or Republican candidates for the US presidency 2016 and seeing profoundness in bullshit statements. In this contribution, bullshit is used as a technical term which is defined as communicative expression that lacks content, logic, or truth from the perspective of natural science. We used the Bullshit Receptivity scale (BSR) to measure seeing profoundness in bullshit statements. The BSR scale contains statements that have a correct syntactic structure and seem to be sound and meaningful on first reading but are actually vacuous. Participants (N = 196; obtained via Amazon Mechanical Turk) rated the profoundness of bullshit statements (using the BSR) and provided favorability ratings of three Democratic (Hillary Clinton, Martin O’Malley, and Bernie Sanders) and three Republican candidates for US president (Ted Cruz, Marco Rubio, and Donald Trump). Participants also completed a measure of political liberalism/conservatism. Results revealed that favorable views of all three Republican candidates were positively related to judging bullshit statements as profound. The smallest correlation was found for Donald Trump. Although we observe a positive association between bullshit and support for the three Democrat candidates, this relationship is both substantively small and statistically insignificant. The general measure of political liberalism/conservatism was also related to judging bullshit statements as profound in that individuals who were more politically conservative had a higher tendency to see profoundness in bullshit statements. Of note, these results were not due to a general tendency among conservatives to see profoundness in everything: Favorable views of Republican candidates and conservatism were not significantly related to profoundness ratings of mundane statements. In contrast, this was the case for Hillary Clinton and Martin O’Malley. Overall, small-to-medium sized correlations were found, indicating that far from all conservatives see profoundness in bullshit statements.

Because that has worked swimmingly in any country that has tried it. Compare North Korea vs Korea, or the two German nations. Great success.
Government is good at breaking things and using threats and force in general. Just about all other things it fucks up.
