More people (I know that's not what wins) disagree with him. Yet, upside down elections are fine if you attempt to not make irrelevant the majority of people. He won, that's okay. But he has to acknowledge the fact that it's upside down. More people disagree with him. He needs to accept that and try to establish a mandate with the people. He's the Bills going into the 4th, 2020 with a 3 point lead against the Pats** and he's throwing bombs against the wind with a Tyrod Taylor arm. No way it holds. Trump still lost the popular vote. Even know he won, that still means he has to work at it. As mentioned above. I dont want to take this down the PPP road, but there's a reaso we have the electoral college. To each their own. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But one last thing: The reason is because the founders didn't trust the people (even if they were elite landowning white males). It worked the exact opposite in 2016. The EC didn't have nuts to pull trigger on the "safety valve." 16 minutes ago, Limeaid said: So are a lot of posts with political stuff related to thread but I get flagged and post deleted while other ones do not.

Paul Fenton (current GM for Minnesota Wild) interviewed for the Sabres GM job. He was told that they were really high on Phil Housley for the coaching vacancy and was asked how he felt about that. Paul said Phil was not ready for the job. Can't really argue that to this point. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Logic Posted February 7, 2019 Share Posted February 7, 2019 We are all one consciousness experiencing itself subjectively. "We" are in fact the One with no second: A single and continuous field of energy, condensed into a collection of slow vibrations. Duality is an illusion. Space, time, and causation are illusions. We were never born and will never die. Suffering is caused by desire. Detachment from desire and recognition of our true nature leads to Satcitananda: Existence-knowledge-bliss eternal. I don't find that very controversial at all, but I presume many would. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whatdrought Posted February 7, 2019 Share Posted February 7, 2019 Anytime the government subsidizes an industry it ends up ruined, i.e, health insurance and higher education. Blood is not thicker than water, and family should be treated like every other relationship. The patriots are horrible, but deserving of some level of respect for their mental toughness and ability to get the job done time and again. Even if they’re horrible birches. Credit cards are great tools when used properly (I’ve had so many people tell me they don’t have cc’s because they don’t want to be in debt.) The Cold War is the greatest chapter in American history. The widespread use and distribution of technology has taken more from the human expierience than it has given back. (Typed on my iPhone) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rockpile Posted February 7, 2019 Share Posted February 7, 2019 According to Selective Services, " Virtually all male U.S. citizens, regardless of where they live, and male immigrants, whether documented or undocumented, residing in the United States, who are 18 through 25, are required to register with Selective Service." "Today, ALL conscientious objectors are still required to register with the Selective Service System. A conscientious objector is one who is opposed to serving in the armed forces and/or bearing arms on the grounds of moral or religious principles." Females do not have to register. If men and women are equal, why is this still the law? Your thoughts? BTW: I have two grandsons in the Army National guard. One is now also in college and the other finished his associates degree and is a new deputy in Ontario County. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The widespread use and distribution of technology has taken more from the human expierience than it has given back. (Typed on my iPhone) A few comments To the first one, but who is it ruined by? I dont necessarily believe it is ruined by the government. From what I have seen from many, once they know its subsidized, they start charging what they want because they know your not the one paying. Similar to insurance. I have seen machanics and shops ask people if it will be paid for through insurance or if your paying for it yourself. If insurance, they quote higher because they know they can because the insurance is covering it, if tour paying out of pocket they cut a deal because they know your going to go with the most affordable option. I never understood the people who feel superior they dont use CCs and have no debt. Not everyone has that ability. Many of the people that are considered wealthy arent 'debt free', they know how to leverage debt and cash to take advantage and increase their worth. And theres the saying about cash/money/wealth that when you die, you cant take it with you. Well when you die, you cant take your debt with you either...... Sort of as per your last point, I feel that the internet was a horrible creation that will lead to our demise. It's a great concept/idea, but it is destroying society. Everyone today has to share everything on it with the world, we have people that now feel that ever thought of theirs needs to be shared. It's too easy to post false info and pass it off as truth. Now everyone thinks they know everything about everything because they saw some blog or something on the internet about it. How many people are medical experts because they checked the symptoms on Web MD or googled it? Everything is a conspiracy or being controlled by some organisation. You can cherry pick the facts you want to believe. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
