As far as civil rights go, “If we wanted to be serious about evidence, we might compare where blacks stood a hundred years after the end of slavery with where they stood after 30 years of the liberal welfare state. In other words, we could compare hard evidence on the legacy of slavery’ with hard evidence on the legacy of liberals.” — Thomas Sowell, A Legacy of Liberalism, November 18, 2014
What was the harm of quantitative easing when we were in a deep recession?
What do you mean?
Even your questions are dumb. What’s a bankruptcy filing if not a government bailout? Like I always say, thank God you have a government job, because you wouldn’t cut it in the private sector.

You don’t deserve an answer because you’re not worthy of debate, numbnuts.
Do you suppose that in his real life outside the friendly confines of our little group that no one knows he is that stupid?
Once upon a time... there were actual smart republican's who used to post in here. But then an angry orange cloud descended the land... and all the smart republicans ran away and hid.
Alright, got to credit this line to Noam Chomsky (paraphrasing)... but "I don't doubt the people around him believe him to be so, because if they thought otherwise they wouldn't have those jobs."

Huh? Obama (Barry) to the left of Bernie (Sanders)?
I'm sure you'll have a one liner explanation, but certainly that's not my take. I found Obama to be a pragmatic moderate. If anything, I thought he played it a bit too safe.

Pete Buttigieg Optimistic He Can Help Prevent Armageddon: ‘We Can’t Let That Happen’

Mayor Pete Buttigieg promised Friday to ward off Armageddon or any kind of spiritual “reckoning” between good and evil if elected president.
Buttigieg discussed the future of the world doing an interview with ‘Charlamagne tha God’ of The Breakfast Club.
“I’m not a religious person, I’m a spiritual person, but I do believe that we are coming to that good vs. evil reckoning and I don’t know if there’s anything we can do about it,” Charlamagne said. “Call it Armageddon, call it what you want, I don’t know.”
Buttigieg said that it was up to Americans to decide whether or not they were going to change the downward trajectory of the country or watch it “go down the tubes.”
“I think we’re going to be here when it goes down the tubes,” Charlamagne said.
“No, we can’t let that happen! We can’t let that happen!” Buttigieg replied.
Buttigieg noted that America made it through the Civil War, World War II, and even it’s founding, which was never a sure thing despite all of the flaws and problems with America’s leaders.
“I don’t believe that the world is cut up into good people and bad people, I think we’ve all got the ability to a lot of good and bad things,” he said.
Buttigieg argued that it was essential to the future of the world to have a president with values.
“The president is the most visible person in the world and can bring things out of us, good things and bad things, and we need presidential leadership that brings out more of the good things,” he said.
He said that the global struggle lied in the individual fight between the appetites of humanity, and that more Americans needed to be inspired to greatness.
“I just think humanity is a mixed bag,” he said. “We are neither doomed to failure nor guaranteed to succeed, but the whole point of leadership is to tip it in the direction of succeeding.”
Charlamagne described President Donald Trump as from “the devil,” a characterization that Buttigieg did not dispute.
Instead, Buttigieg criticized Vice President Mike Pence for being the part of Christianity that believes in “rigid traditional sexual ethics.”
“That’s not how I come at Christianity,” he said. “But he does. And he thinks that this president ought to be the moral as well as the political leader of this country.”

Radio host Charlamagne tha God praised Pete Buttigieg for his agenda for black voters but cautioned that the mayor’s record fell short on many issues facing black residents in South Bend, Indiana.
The South Bend mayor appeared on Charlamagne’s show The Breakfast Clubon Friday to discuss his agenda for black Americans.
Speaking about the interview to CNN, Charlamagne said that he liked what he heard from Buttigieg and said that his proposed agenda was actually better than proposals from 2020 black candidates in the field.
When asked if he believed Buttigieg, Charlamagne grew more cautious, reminding viewers that presidential candidates were in “dream selling season.”
“I’m just saying it sounds good, you know?” the radio host said. “He’s a politician at the end of the day, I don’t believe any of these things that they say.”

He said that Buttigieg’s actions as mayor gave him pause, questioning the police shooting of a black man in South Bend and the mayor firing a black police chief and replacing him with a white one.
“Actions speak louder than words, you know, the only actions I have to go on is what you did as South Bend as mayor, if you didn’t do a lot for black people there, I don’t know what you’ll do at a national level,” he said. “But I’ll give you the benefit of the doubt.”
During the interview with Buttigieg, Charlamagne noted that black people in South Bend were worse off economically, in education, employment, and poverty.
“They say, as mayor, you haven’t focused on addressing those problems. Like, why didn’t you put that focus on those things?” he asked.
Buttigieg agreed that the numbers were true, but argued that he tried to fix it by working to support home repairs in poor communities and creating “community policing.”
“Policing has been a huge challenge for us. It’s been a huge racial challenge,” he said.
Buttigieg acknowledged that he had not fixed racial problems in South Bend, but said that he was learning as he campaigned for president.
“If I wanna earn and deserve to earn black support, then I’ve got to first of all talk about what we got right in South Bend, what we got wrong, and what we’ve learned from it, but also what we’re gonna do for the country,” he said.
Charlamagne also questioned Buttigieg for why fewer black police officers were in the police department under his administration.
“I’m not going to bullshit people, it’s a problem,” Buttigieg replied. “And I’m going to own the fact that we’re not where we want to be.”
Buttigieg said recruiting black police officers was more difficult after the riots in Ferguson, Missouri.
“It’s really important to have a department that reflects the community we serve,” he said. “It’s gotten harder over time, it
was hard to begin with, it’s definitely harder post-Ferguson.”
Charlamagne asked Buttigieg why he failed to hire a black police chief to replace the black police chief that he fired.
“You know, I would’ve loved if the right person had been black, but it just didn’t work out that way,” he replied. “I mean, I also got to find the right person for the job.”
