Ask a sociopath any question

Great questions, insightful responses

A few days of training, a meal every other day, a Russian soldier relates his experience



Honestly, it's like the Russians don't even want to win this war

Does anyone remember that meme that showed how government spending helps all businesses?

It was anti-libertarian. It showed some businessman outside his business with a sign bragging about how he didn't need no gubmint help to make it on his own in the economy.

Then someone tagged up the photo, commenting how road building brought him his customers and suppliers, how OSHA inspections reduced labor costs and the social costs from preventing accidents, how the electric grid he depended on brought him cheap energy, how state vehicle inspections made his shipping costs safer and cheaper, how government insurance for banks reduced the cost of the business loans he used, etc...

It was real educational and would be very useful for me to use in the frequent economics debates I get into with ungrateful idiots on facebook.

This Herschel Walker news is a great birthday present -- All these Republicans standing by him

The best part is how worried Republican leaders are that the rank and file voters they've been gaslighting with abortion hysteria for year are going to actually expect Republican politicians to oppose abortion in their own personal lives.

Silly, rubes, Republicans never cared about abortion any more than chicken farmers want to eat chicken feed!

Next thing you know, they'll expect Ron DeSantis to reject socialism on principle when it benefits his chickens, I mean voters.

Disappointed in myself. How did I *not* guess that Herschell Walker had paid for an abortion?

Seriously, this scandal will probably knock him down below the 49% support level in Georgia.
