Yes, it is that.

That parade was organized by the city authorities. I'm asking if it had been privately organized, how would have that made a difference? One way or th...
March 12, 2020 at 23:50
What? So, if the parade had been privately organized, the government shouldn't have stepped in and stopped it if they knew it would likely cause thous...
March 12, 2020 at 23:39
Yes, they may, but we've just established that in practice, they don't. And you've agreed the bureaucrats (government) would have been right to step i...
March 12, 2020 at 23:24
It might have been that most of those people wouldn't have died. So, yes, the government should have stopped it because they, not the citizenry, are u...

Which is depending on government to deal with a pandemic, no? Yet you said earlier:
March 12, 2020 at 22:31
That's where government comes in. Look how bad Italy is now and imagine what it would be like if they hadn't been put on lockdown (even more so re Chi...

Look at the graph comparing the Spanish Flu outcomes in Philadelphia and St Louis. Many more died in Philadelphia because the government failed to tak...

I think it's absolutely wrong to play politics, especially delusional politics, with a life and death situation like this. But it's obvious what he's ...

The Spanish Flu killed tens of millions. And here's an example from the time of why strong government intervention is necessary. "In 1918, the city of...
March 12, 2020 at 21:56
People are dying because of that kind of ignorant attitude. Please don't play politics with this and go crawl back under the rock you crawled out from...

I hope you go viral. :kiss:
March 12, 2020 at 19:45
Absolutely. It's all very relative to the economic context.
March 12, 2020 at 19:44
A prelude to the entire election campaign. Just imagine the ads. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sGZD7-El4xE
March 12, 2020 at 18:54
Yes, been through this.
March 12, 2020 at 18:49
So you consider a weak, obviously mentally impaired, candidate who will be mauled in the debates against Trump to be more electable than one of the be...

The problem is when there's a national crisis you need someone serious in office to deal with it not a moron. All those who thought it was fun to vote...
March 12, 2020 at 15:33
I was being somewhat tongue in cheek there.
March 11, 2020 at 13:15
I don't think even Biden can stop the Biden juggernaut now. And he's winning fair and square, so no complaints. It's bizarre considering he's barely a...

If money's their aim, they should never have kids, never marry, and never hire Hanover to do their taxes. But no, the point you just made isn't object...

Anyway, weren't we talking about Bernie? It could be all over for him in a few hours.

Oh, and @"BitconnectCarlos", Brookings isn't left-wing, it's not even liberal. "Brookings states that its staff "represent diverse points of view" and...

American conservatives are not allowed tell people not to have children or not to get married. It goes against Family values™. Hence why this is ideol...

So, what prevented them with coming up with the rule: Don't have children. Period? Oh, I know, that would conflict with conservative ideology, which i...
March 10, 2020 at 20:49
Yes, better stay away from Hansover anyway unless you like the view from under the floorboards.
March 09, 2020 at 22:07
Foiled again.
March 09, 2020 at 22:00
You need to tighten up before you go bonkers. Qualify yourself for something. Get a job. I believe @"Hanover" gives live-in courses in ambulance chasi...

That.

Both. It just depends. We stopped it for him.

All Biden has to do to win is not lose his mind completely before November. Americans don't vote primarily on issues, they vote for who they'd most be...

(The problem is you don't listen to us. At the same time we don't want to ban you. The way that conundrum is eventually dissolved is down to you.)

Here's a moderation philosophy for you: "everything in moderation".

Banned @"alcontali" for religiously-inspired extremism.

Barr is such a slimey corrupt little fuck. Him, Pompeo, and Pence. Pure mercenary sycophants. :vomit:

I like @"csalisbury". Comes up with a lot of interesting stuff I dig. Plenty of others too, but that's enough lovefest for one thread.
