The idea that tax breaks buy jobs is a fallacy

Corporations exist only to serve themselves and their stock holders. It should be illegal for politicians to buy their loyalty with our tax dollars.

The wife and I voted early yesterday

The line was impressive at 10:30 in the morning, quite a lot of people voting 4 days before election day.

Help me out with this...

If Trump is such a nationalist why does he have so many business interests outside the country? Wouldn't that make him more of a globalist?

Think of how the archival footage of Trump rallies will look to future historians

We have to do everything possible to let them know there were many of us that didn't go along with that shit.

How's this for a person of interest?



I stole it from another site. I couldn't help it. Too funny.

Ignoring human rights violations for a perceived "greater good" can never be accepted

To me the scariest thing about the disappearance of Khashoggi is when Trump immediately brought up the 110 billion in arms sales with the Saudis when asked about the reporter's disappearance. In that moment, he seemed to be weighing money against human rights, assessing the value of person's life to a perceived greater good, not what our American ideals are about.

We shall see what happens as this matter unfolds, but I'm not very confident that money won't "trump" human rights when it comes down to it.

As Americans we can not accept anything that puts money over human rights, heaven help us if we ever start.

To any Limbaugh or Beck listeners that might be trolling here

It's called metaphor. Look that up if you need to. When Eric Holder says "kick 'em" he's speaking metaphorically, not literally. It's not a call to violence from the left.

Oh, and another thing, protest is legal in America, even when it's not something you agree with.
