Ponderable

Don't mistake my comments about Capitalism needing to be regulated, as a criticism of Capitalism. My point was Capitalism alone, with no controls, is what leads to horrible abuses born of greed. Yes, greed as a basic driver is what pushes us to excel, but it's also what pushes us to commit abuses against other men. Capitalism did not create the SEC, OSHA, DOL, FDA, EPA, etc., these protective agencies were created to curb the abuses created by greed.

Maduro’s future is shackled to a collapsing economy, wrought by two decades of socialism, mismanagement, and corruption that has squandered $1.5 trillion in oil revenue. Anxious Venezuelans pass their days in long lines to buy food, medicine, and other necessities. Crime and insecurity stir rage in a society polarized by decades of class warfare, which is used by Maduro — like Chávez before him — to consolidate his base among Venezuela’s poor majority.

I actually think our tax system is working as intended. Don't put me in a "liberal box", I work hard too and also hate tax season. You can acknowledge the power and efficiency of Capitalism and enjoy your life under our system, while at the same time acknowledge that Capitalism alone is not the answer to everything. We have a horrible track record when it comes to providing health care to our people and our Justice system needs an overhaul as well, otherwise we wouldn't have the largest prison population in the world.

Why are you blaming capitalism for our socialized healthcare system and the laws that create the worlds "largest prison population"? Where is your link for the "largest prison population"?

Lol, Trump even ripped off the creepy freedom kids act: https://www.washingtonpost.com/news...ampaign/?postshare=2561469542879678&tid=ss_tw

Lion keeps mistaking our contempt of Trump as support for HRC. BIZ, as usual, is talking to no one but himself and is even cross posting links because nobody will bite on his HRC thread.

Iʻm not expecting bites on those links. What can anyone say to refute the culture of "extreme carelessness" of HRC as told by FBI director Comey.

Is that what I keep doing?
Tell me more.

I continue to post crap about HRC because there's so much to post....as far as posting links, I've been on this site for years and have always posted links to support whatever argument is being made.
That's why I asked Magoo to post up...
But hell Wezzer, you already knew that..
 
This one is fantastic!

Trump is forcing the GOP to confront their demons. Conservatives are dropping like flies...

"Avik Roy is a Republican’s Republican. A health care wonk and editor at Forbes, he has worked for three Republican presidential hopefuls — Mitt Romney, Rick Perry, and Marco Rubio. Much of his adult life has been dedicated to advancing the Republican Party and conservative ideals.

But when I caught up with Roy at a bar just outside the Republican convention, he said something I’ve never heard from an establishment conservative before: The Grand Old Party is going to die."

You are asking for something that is common knowledge.

Based on your posting history, I guess I shouldn't have been surprised at your ignorance.

The one thing that the closing down of the old site did was to remove 21,000 plus espola post that no doubt displayed your historic ignorance. Please continue, only 20, 900 or so post to go for history to repeat itself.

In my short time here, I've noticed this claim from you go totally unsupported, so we question the source...
 
Here's the challenge to Lion and BIZ, reply to this HRC bashing post, from me the lefty, with your own Trump bashing post.

http://www.truthdig.com/report/item..._lied_to_us_at_democratic_convention_20160801

"The Democratic Convention Film on Hillary Clinton Lied to America"

"Undoubtedly, readers troubled by this column will quickly produce quotes establishing that Trump wants to hurt poor children far more barbarically. But if that’s enough to float your boat as you hold your nose for Clinton, know that that is a truly depressing choice for the country."
