Ponderable

Curiosity my friend. Look at the question I posed and be curious...don’t just spout simplistic commentary about taxes and freedom. Ask why the richest country in the world with the greatest amount of fertile land poisons it’s own people with all that garbage.

Good question, I imagine it's trump fault.

The issue is not why we tax the poor idiots, who are already at the bottom of the "food chain" (pun intended) in society, so much for their sodas, but rather what is it about the economics of food in this country that continues to militate in favor of selling high-sugar and high-fat, bad foods, from convenience stores and superstores and fast food chains, to an obese nation? The Republicans call it "freedom." Think again.

This being a free country and full of choices, folks get to choose what they want to eat & drink....Democrats and Republicans alike call that freedom.

I'll introduce this with a story. Many years ago, I was at an affair attended by a very chauvinistic, left-wing Greek fellow who would expound upon the superiority of Greek culture while at times demeaning the U.S. He was like the father character in My Big Fat Greek Wedding, only with an anti-American twist. Desiring to take him down a peg and do a little face-to-face trolling, I finally said with a smirk, "If all that's true, why is Greece now like a third-world country?" (For those offended, know that I have great respect for ancient Greek accomplishments, just love moussaka, and have the physique of a Spartan hoplite.)

Well, I exaggerate not when saying he turned red and, with veins popping out in his neck, exclaimed, "Don't say that! Don't say that!" It was the kind of situation where you get the feeling the guy might take a swing at you.

Good answer, Lion. Duh, “freedom,” duh...

Funny line, but I don’t the rich felt too plundered during the Obama era...they did great. It was Bush that cost them 1/3 of their dough, then they got it back and another 50% or so on top during O. He was no socialist, his policies were very pro-wall street and his tax policy was basically status quo.

Yep, there a bunch of old school racists that obviously just don't know better.
It's the new ones on the left that should be the concern of today.

I will never believe that the discriminated against minorities should face ongoing accusations of “racism” (or, similarly, women can’t be called “sexist”) as part of our country’s political rhetoric.
