We are the baddies. We are allowing our governments to do it. We are the German citizens who for whatever reason let Nazi Germany become a murder machine.

Today we are quiet so that we don't get targeted. How long until we have to pledge our support so that we don't get targeted? How long until we have to contribute so we don't get targeted?

Good luck soldier.

When you are exhausted it's hard to remember that the time with our kids and families is exactly what we are fighting for 40+ hours a week for.

As soon as it is suspended for noncitizens it will give them moral justification to use on terrorists inside the country. And people who support terrorists like hamas.

Well, anyone the government says is a terrorist supporter really. And I'm sure they will use their best judgment to decide who that is.

Except you have forgotten the reason we are having this conversation is that they aren't learning in those situations because of rampant cheating.

I've nearly given up on starting new things. I've left so many things unfinished I feel guilty starting new things knowing they will become clutter or wasted time

but since the insurance companies own the tech, device, ad, and service companies, as well as most offices,

And the regulatory bodies. And senators. And representatives.

This shit is old and still true

From YT description; In this compelling speech before Congress, Warren Buffett delivers a strong argument for a fair tax system, calling out the growing wealth gap and the dangers of eliminating the estate tax. He warns against a society where dynastic wealth replaces meritocracy, emphasizing the need for a progressive estate tax to prevent America from turning into a plutocracy. Buffett also proposes an alternative: using estate tax revenue to support low-income households, ensuring fairness in a system that disproportionately benefits the ultra-wealthy.

Key takeaways include: ✅ Why removing the estate tax would widen economic inequality ✅ How the wealth gap has skyrocketed over the last 20 years ✅ The real impact of tax law changes on the super-rich ✅ Buffett’s proposal to support low-income families instead of eliminating the estate tax ✅ The moral and economic argument for tax fairness

This is a must-watch for anyone interested in economic policy, wealth distribution, and tax fairness. Learn directly from Warren Buffett’s insightful perspective on how to create a more just and balanced economy.

 
 

It's time. Everyone agrees the DNC is a failure for numerous reasons. It's time to stop bitching and figure out how to fix it.

How do we get people like Bernie, AOC and Jon Stewart in charge?

 

No casual politics forum so hope this is OK here.

Today I saw a totem pole made of skeletons. I tried to come up with a word for it, something like skeletotem pole and accidentally imagined a similar sounding scrotum-totem pole.

Now you are going to imagine one. Do you draw faces on them? Position them to make eyes and stretch them out?

You're welcome.

 
 

Stupid but funny.
