Even right wing capitalists at least pay lip service to the idea that economic growth should benefit the majority as the majority play a part in produ...

We need banks. They just need to be properly regulated. Where are the funds for entrepreneurship going to come from if not banks?

Trump's trade war will boost GDP in the long term? According to what economic model? According to what evidence? Fantastical statements like this just...
July 30, 2018 at 10:25
Yes, agree with all that. That's the strategy here. Slash taxes for the wealthy to improve GDP figures in the short to medium term (though still won't...

Reality is never as exciting as Trump's fantasy world : https://www.cbsnews.com/news/us-gdp-growth-touted-as-historic-by-trump-is-totally-standard/

There's not much to trickle down, it's a misleading figure. Listen, we had a GDP blip in Ireland that showed a 26% growth rate in 2015! Beat that Trum...
July 30, 2018 at 05:35
That's been debunked by just about every economist as a temporary blip initiated by Trump’s failing trade war, which is already requiring billion doll...

You'll get there sometime, I'm sure. Try to keep the marijuana and horse riding separate though. :razz:
July 28, 2018 at 14:10
Pretty sure I went horse-riding along the beach there when I was a kid. Brings back memories. :)

Noordwijk probably. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noordwijk .Nice spot.

You can't distill the positives from National Socialism any more than you can distill a soft drink from arsenic. Anything that's left that isn't abomi...

If Elizabeth Warren runs, every exchange is likely to be "Trump: Pocahontas! Warren: Idiot!" and nobody will hear anything else.

What's your proposed solution to the problem?

Rabbi Hanover 1: Holier-than-thou Agustino 0. (That's your compliment for the year. Make the most of it.)

Maybe this will cheer you up a bit: https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2018/jul/26/facebook-market-cap-falls-109bn-dollars-after-growth-shock
July 26, 2018 at 14:33
Well, if it's true there should be corroborating evidence out there. Worth a look for sure.

On its own the source looks too left-wing biased to be trusted. Worth some research though.
July 26, 2018 at 14:25
I never saw the false FB post actually. I was thinking of a variety of statements including the recent video I posted although the webpage seems to ba...

:lol: Do you mind if I ask what your main source of news is? What's your go-to news website?
July 26, 2018 at 11:39
OK, on the basis of what? Where is your evidence he is a fraud? I presume you found some now and are not just making random unsubstantiated claims. So...
July 26, 2018 at 06:42
Good to hear. It is likely to eventually happen and it will be interesting to see where it does lead. But there is not enough evidence yet to justify ...

Give us a break, about two seconds after talking about Stalin and Gulags, you were supporting the impeachment of Rosenstein on the basis of nothing, n...
July 26, 2018 at 06:21
Yes, but it plays well with their base. That's all they care about here.

Both Ryan and Gowdy's statements on the record show they think it's as ridiculous and unsubstantiated as we do.
July 26, 2018 at 04:23
There will be no further process involving the presenting of evidence. It ends here with this embarrassing self-serving move. On the basis of no evide...

So, you supported his impeachment on the basis of nothing but some vague wish for transparency. OK, so presumably you support impeaching Trump for the...
July 26, 2018 at 04:13
You are really slow. There will be no process because there is no basis for a process. Just like if you accuse someone of a crime they won't be charge...

:yawn: Evidence. Go ahead. We're waiting.
July 26, 2018 at 04:05
Yawn. Cite the evidence he's not carrying out his duties. And statements by lying politicians greasing their own wheels don't count. Go ahead.
July 26, 2018 at 04:03
You don't have to legally defend yourself against every nonsense unsubstantiated claim made by those who consider you a political threat. You ignore a...

It's just showboating and going nowhere. The more sensible wing of the Republican party knows you can't impeach someone just because you consider them...

When the result is this close that's the obvious ethical implication. If there's no precedent, set one I say.
July 25, 2018 at 20:49
There's no way to do that automatically. I wish there was as I agree it would help. @"jamalrob" runs the PayPal account to which donations go though, ...
