The world has a serious shortage of both logic and kindness.
— Haruki Murakami, 1Q84
“We have become a Nazi monster in the eyes of the whole world, a nation of bullies and bastards who would rather kill than live peacefully. We are not just Whores for power and oil, but killer whores with hate and fear in our hearts. We are human scum, and that is how history will judge us. No redeeming social value. Just whores. Get out of our way, or we’ll kill you. Who does vote for these dishonest ****heads? Who among us can be happy and proud of having all this innocent blood on our hands? Who are these swine? These flag-sucking half-wits who get fleeced and fooled by stupid little rich kids like George Bush? They are the same ones who wanted to have Muhammad Ali locked up for refusing to kill gooks. They speak for all that is cruel and stupid and vicious in the American character. They are the racists and hate mongers among us; they are the Ku Klux Klan. I piss down the throats of these Nazis. And I am too old to worry about whether they like it or not. **** them.”

“I, and so many of us in the country, we have run out of patience with you. You are the do-nothing GOP lawmakers. And up to now ― and to be very very honest, and it’s really sad ― you’re pretty useless. And all you have now is excuses and broken promises.”

KOBACH: Absolutely.
Calvin Coolidge ---- really ?

By pointing something out does not mean I am for or against
I am more interested in who isn't !!
I think you know me well enough by now to know that you can definitely count me in for a REAL investigation. The problem is, who can we ALL trust to make sure the investigation is done truthfully and honestly? We both know half the people in this country will disagree with the findings no matter what they are.
shoot, I pasted that on the wrong thread !!!
It was to the point of Amazon having more than 60M subscribers
oops !
Let's figure out a way to setup a bipartisan committee. Or have an independent not for profit that is vetted to have no conflict of interests. That innit of itself would take a long time but we need to get this mess under control. Lots of signs out there that the problem is widespread.
It's simple...if you're a citizen you vote. If not...you don't.

How can you investigate “election integrity” w/o investigating voter suppression & Russian interference in the 2016 election? #RespectMyVote
It seems gotten lost in history this tactic was effectively used during Jim Crow.
there were over 200K voters purged from Wisconsin voter rolls where Trump won by 1%
we can go back to Florida voter rolls on 2000 whic brought us the economic crash of 2008 and something else -- can't remember right now

Curious if you've ever worked in the private sector outside of school.
You seem to think every business is the devil.
In reality, America is the richest country in the world, and the people in this country are considerably richer over where they've been. I get that you're mad that there are a few at the top who lap the field many times over, but it seems you throw the baby out with the bath water.
I know that I've managed to do well thanks to big corporations making money for my labor. And while I've made my company millions more than they've paid me, they also set me up to be able to do so, and then compensated me hansomly... And trust me, I'm nowhere near the top.
Yes, the first 9-10 years out of college back in the 80s, the wonderful Reagan 80's, the decade that spawned the axiom "hey it's not personal, it's just business". I was raised as a strict "the people in power always do the right thing, especially if they're Repubs". I found out first hand during the 80's that those at the top would slit your or my throat in a microsecond if it made them a few more dollars. I didn't read about this, or see it in a movie, I lived it.
I understand that your very different philosophy comes from your life's experiences, just like mine comes from mine. It's kinda funny, had our life's experiences been reversed, which let's face it other than the time period pure happenstance is the only difference, and maybe a little geography, you might be the non-trusting malcontent permanently burned by betrayal from the top and I might be the Silent Cal Coolidge is the greatest president ever because he let those at the top of the market run the market and anybody who didn't like it, could go away and starve on their own (and hopefully quietly).
I don't know a lot about your story but I know you got screwed by a company, bounced back, got up and got back in the game and have been relatively richly rewarded for your efforts. I am happy for you and honestly I applaud you, your work ethnic and your efforts, just as I do Vol's (remember him?) but there is one thing I don't think either of you consider, you are to be applauded for your hard work and sweat and dedication but something you seem to have left out (and forgive me if I have misjudged you) "there but for the grace of God go I". You are to be commended but not everybody has gotten the same opportunities you've gotten and no it wasn't all by your work ethic and positive attitude. Not everybody has had the same negative relationship with law enforcement as Cajun, but that doesn't make him wrong or bad, we all have our crosses to bear, so to speak. Remember then or now not everybody who is willing to work hard gets the opportunity, not everybody who is successful is so because of hard work or pureness of heart. We are all judged eventually not by how much we've accumulated or how hard we've worked for that matter, but by what we do with what we get.
Just remember it was the man upstairs who really gave you those opportunities, yes you have taken advantage of them and I've already applauded you for that, lots of other people would have been too lazy or too entitled to care enough to work hard. Just trust me on this, take a little time now and then to give thanks to someone higher than you because with the same hard work and positive attitude without him you wouldn't be where you are and that is something some of you guys who are so pro-system don't seem to realize. I apologize if I have misjudged you, that was not my intent. Believe it or not my intent is good and it is to help you appreciate the true source of your success so that you take care not to lose it some day.
