Alexandria, take II

hell, might as well make sure the saudis have nuclear arms as well...

Burn her at the stake.

“If we were willing to give away $3 billion for this deal, we could invest those $3 billion in our district ourselves, if we wanted to. We could hire out more teachers. We can fix our subways. We can put a lot of people to work for that money, if we wanted to,”

Blood on a street
Tonight a new day
Lost count of how many died
At least I'm doing it my way
You're the liberated
You are the free
Free to cry and die, disenfranchise, blessed as a country
I-I'm living American dream
I-I'm living American dream well
I-I'm living American dream
I-I'm living American dream well
Hand on a Bible
Foot on your neck
Living half-past half-mast
And semi automatic
Help ain't coming
So I prayed for you
It ain't much but it's the least I can do, well, 'cause I
I-I'm living American dream well
I-I'm living American dreams
I-I'm living American dream
I-I'm living…

Was the Amazon deal good for NYC or or a screw job? I am too lazy to find out by researching the deal myself. T

Amazon will pay zero in taxes this year ,all the while putting your local shops and businesses out of business.

The woman said "Many times I can’t afford meat.

But the group spends most of its resources identifying and recruiting entrepreneurs and executives to serve as spokespeople for free markets, and then sends them out into the media landscape, either in advertisements or, preferably, op-eds and TV appearances. "These are real job creators who are advocating on behalf of free enterprise in the media, and they bring great credibility as real job creators," says Ortiz.

First it’s pie-in-the-sky

But we got $8 billion dollars to build one destroyer that fires $800,000 shells, and billions to build fighter jets that can't fly at night or in the rain. We can spend $2 million dollars for each goatherd we kill in some god forsaken desert, that we got

Yep, Gary. The corporations wash those little brains to believe there is no money for anything but the wars and tax relieve for the wealthy. It's ridiculous that people think Bernie or Alexandria are socialists/extreme liberals. In most European countries they would be viewed as centrists.

Yeah . Trumps minions did all that sh#t behind his back without trump knowing about it . He’s going to be really upset when he finds out what they were up to .

Russia had nothing to do with your st00pid election.

The criminals in your own system did it and then went on to smear Russia.

You Americans are so easily brainwashed that's why the criminals in DC can so easily get away with it.

Thus the "St00pid American" moniker is so fitting for you fool brainwashed politards

For someone who claims that the Russia inquiry is a big nothingburger, Individual 1 sure lies and covers his tracks like a guilty person. The best case scenarios I can think of is that he is either so forgetful he can’t keep track of what is happening, or lying is his reflexive reaction to every uncomfortable fact. Both are plausible, but neither best case scenario gives me the warm fuzzies.

Has any member of his campaign team been charged with anything linked to the Trump/Russia conspiracy claim?

Mueller... Mueller....

Mueller???

In a survey conducted by New York City Hospitality Alliance late last year, about 75% of the more than 300 respondents operating full-service restaurants reported they’ll reduce employee hours this year because of the new wage increases, while 47% said they’ll eliminate jobs in 2019.

It is kind of strange that both the POTUS and his Vice are out of the country at the same time

Trump and his azzhole st00pid criminal friends Bibi Nutcaseyahoo along with Kushner dipsh!t Pompeo, dipsh!t Bolton are busy overseas drumming up a way to start another war.

This time with Iran.

March - April.

AOC hasn’t heard there’s no such thang as a free lunch.

My heroin is one of few that try to think beyond politics.

IOW anyone who sides with The President Of The United States is a lowlife scumbag. right?

Not at all. Some of my long time friends are tRump supporters.

Why is it okay that for 40 years now, dems are supposed to play by the mother_teresa book of rules and republicans play by the putin book of rules?

AOC will be president in your lifetime. Get used to the idea :)

Welfare: It puts a disincentive on work and you get a population of people who don't want to work and want to work the system. It currently destroys families and the bonds needed to become successful. Just look at what it has done to the black population. Up until the major welfare programs, blacks had families, marriage and employment in much greater percentages.

Population / Immigration: We are choking the planet to death with an out of control human population. The result is pollution. Nitrates will kill the Oceans and our oxygen supply eventually. Carbon will acidify our oceans and create a blanket in the atmosphere. Get ready for red tides, dead zones, seaweed that piles up on the winward side of land masses, etc. Let people overpopulate an area with limited resources then migrate away to overpopulate somewhere else and you have a big problem. The problem needs to be address where they are migrating away from and why. Address those problems and survive or run from your problems to stave it off a few more years until the next area becomes a problem. Very concerning.

Global Trade: Seems like a lot of our jobs are going away to cheap labor somewhere else. Then we buy these products to a debt on our end. This makes matters even worse. Trade only works when it is even. A barter system where you give me something and I give you something back. As soon as it is out of balance, the one side is taking advantage of the other and debts and job loss will result. Eventually, you have nothing more to give (no products being produced) and nothing more to take (don't have any money since I don't have a job).

Living Wage: There are too many people for all of us to have a good job.

The most devastating by-product of the mushrooming welfare state is the corrosive effect it has on American family life, particularly in the black community. As provisions in welfare laws offered ever-increasing economic incentives for shunning marriage and avoiding the formation of two-parent families, illegitimacy rates rose dramatically.

Gary, if he amended it to “there are too many high school dropouts to merit well paid jobs” would you stop swearing?

I don't know any single parents that do a great job by themselves

tradmike- Strong family bond with two parents is essential to raising a productive and mentally stable person. I don't know any single parents that do a great job by themselves. You can choose to get sperm and raise the child yourself but it's not going to be the best scanario

tradmike-You mom married someone of weak character.

There are too many able bodied people not willing to work because welfare will provide a better living

I don't know any single parents that do a great job by themselves.

I am sure some single parents are superstars and rise above but I am sure it is difficult.

Hey Gary look at China and India the two most populous countries.

We need more White Baby's right F..ing now!

This discussion is finally getting real.

Lets look at where the real bump in population is comming from

Black Women ( 78% unwed / No father on Birth Certificate)

Catholic Women - Mexican, Central/South American (Thanks Pope Whoever you are right now)

Musilum Influx - ( See Wisconsin, Minnesota and Michigan)

We need more White Baby's right F..ing now!

We need more White Baby's right F..ing now!

kingtut:
We aren't gonna "heal the country" by ignoring racist posts. It begins with standing up to them in every way.

Maryland congressman John Delaney

All of these things sound radical compared to where we are, but where we are is not a good thing. And this idea of, like, 10% better from garbage shouldn't be what we settle for

I keep hearing this comment is being taken out of context. It sure does sound like she's saying life for the average American is just 10% above garbage.... and I'm wondering how the f*ck do you see our current situation just barely above garbage?

Where do places like Syria or Venezuela rate?

Or any of our neighbors to the south?

EdwardT, I'm quite sure you know the answer to your question, but let me explain.

We compare our status not to the poorest in the world, but to our own poverty class. What's more, many look at the wealthy class with envy. That's create a lot of unhappy people, right or wrong.

Moose

I guess one big difference: today a significant portion of the population believes they are entitled that wealth. Let's call them entitled brat class.

The conventional wisdom is that business owners who replace human workers with robots will accumulate wealth — something a left-leaning politician would usually be opposed to.

EdwardT, it's nice to see you finally recognize the 0.1% for what they truly are.

What is a moderate these days? Five Billion for barriers at the border seemed moderate.

They flipped the house, not AOC.

AOC does not represent "The" left, my left or your left. She doesn't help define "The" middle, my middle or your middle.

Meanwhile, my taxes are going up because I was thrown under the bus so they wouldn't get their hands dirty trying to work out some sort of deal during the tax "reform" negotiations. I'm not happy at all.

When was the last time Republicans were interested in working with Dems on anything major?

“We're going to do everything — and I mean everything we can do — to kill it, stop it, slow it down, whatever we can.”

The gall exhibited by Republicans was truly staggering. After President Obama was able to get through a stimulus bill with absolutely no GOP support, Republicans would get their pictures taken with stimulus checks, taking credit for the very thing they voted against.

Edward, your cherry picking of recent past is a non-starter.

Fast and furious investigation lasted 6 years and what was the outcome
