  1. It does but think about the money the United States spends. Nearly 60% of taxes go to defense spending at almost $600 billion dollars. Cut that by 10% is still more than enough for than defense and would make college free for all. Lowering student loan rates like to what Wall Street banks get from the Federal Reserve at rates below 1% would make college far more affordable. And taxing wall street could generate more revenue. Allowing the government to deal with prescription drug companies would at least lower drug costs. These things are all possible and no one (except wall street) would have to pay more.
  2. I understand the electoral college only votes as the people choose 40% of the time. That is not democracy.
  3. Socialism, done the right way, is what the country needs. If things were equal we wouldn't need it, but we do. I couldn't go to a major university because there was no way for me to pay for it so I had to go to a college in my town. Why are only the well off able to go to whatever school they choose? Shouldn't everyone have the same opportunity? Socialism would have kept Shkerli from raising the price of a life saving drug by 750%. Shouldn't people be paid a minimum wage that will allow them to at least get by? Shouldn't insurance be affordable? My mother needs a liver transplant and there is no way we can get it. We don't qualify for any programs and there is no way we can come up with that money. Socialism is not communism, it's about increasing the opportunity for people who are not as financially stable. Trump has threatened my family because my dad is an illegal immigrant. He came when he was 16, made a stupid mistake when he was 18 and is now about to turn 50. He has lived here his entire adult life and he can't get his papers fixed because of a non-violent crime. He works 60 hours a week doing construction, paid about $9 an hour. Trump wants him gone. He wants my aunt gone. He wants my uncles, brother in law, and friends gone. He even threatened sending second generation immigrants "back". He believes you can sexually assault women if you're famous, I have 5 nieces, 3 sisters, and more important women in my life, and this offends me. He thinks global warming is a hoax. He has a VP who believes shock therapy will "cure" my gay brother. He believes women should be punished if they get an abortion. He wants to defund planned parenthood.He presided over one of the biggest HIV outbreaks in rural America, in my home state of Indiana, because of his conservative beliefs. These guys are dangerous not only to me but to the LGBT, Muslim, African American, female, and other communities and I would rather have fucking Kanye West as president over them. Also, side note "25,000 foreign nationals — or immigrants — were arrested for homicides, but for over a 55-year period between August 1955 and April 2010. In comparison, there were 11,200 arrests for homicides in 2010 alone among the general American population, according to the U.S. Department of Justice statistics (ThinkProgress). It probably was easier for you to get your papers, one of my uncles in Mexico has tried for years to get his visa and they repeatedly deny him. I understand Clinton flips on her issues a lot but I am okay with that as long as they reflect the views of the people the represent. It means they are growing and paying attention. Yes she lied, but so does Trump. Trump is a fraud, he went bankrupt, refused to release his taxes, is an alleged rapist, outsources for his own company, and has been sued over 3000 times for screwing people over. While Clinton may be bad, she has political experience and would have at least been 4 more years of the progress we've made the last 8, not go backwards. I know he won't be able to do everything he says, but the fact that his entire campaign was based off of racism, islamophobia, and hate and was elected president is terrifying to me. I understand that he will be president but that doesn't mean I have to support him or call him my president. Obama had plenty of "birther" people who thought he wasn't even a citizen. The republicans have the house and a majority of the senate and they will likely appoint their choice as the supreme court judge because the Democrats will just bend like they usually do. Even if he doesn't get any of his hateful bills passed he still wants to get rid of the EPA and "the war on coal" as well as implement the biggest tax cuts for the top 1 percent in the history of this country. This. Just like that law that they tried to pass in Arizona. How would you know someone is an immigrant? Ask for identification? Who do you ask? People who look like immigrants, what comes to mind when people think of immigrants? Latinos.
  4. It also has recently come out that Russians were in contact and coordinating with trump and his campaign from the get go. And now the American president is now beholden to the greatest threat to our allies. But Clinton had emails though. Racism is alive in this country and now it's out in the open thanks to Trump. Ignorance is the dominant thought process. Isolationism is the goal.
  5. If the DNC hadn't colluded with the media to stop Bernie he would be our president elect, not Trump. Trump is not my president, i refuse to accept him, not when he has threatened the well being of my family and friends and community. There are terrible people born here, more in fact. And are more likely to commit crimes than mexican immigrants. I am genuinely embarrassed to be American because the rest of the country elected a sociopath and an unqualified, unhinged, narcissistic, racist bigot as our President. EMBARRASSED. This country has not been great for a long time and will never be great again. I can't believe the most qualified woman in the world lost to the least qualified man in the world. Uneducated, uninformed, disgruntled, aggressive, oblivious to global threats and a little bit addicted to guns. That's America right there and Trump is it's president. This is not funny, this is not entertaining, this is terrifying. Not just for me, but for the whole world. We should all be scared.
  6. she's behind in Michigan, Wisconsin, and Pennsylvania.
  7. Somebody hold me. i'm gonna cry. Can anyone let me live with them? Preferably outside of the USA? Please.
  8. So, what have I missed? Lol. I've watched a handful of games, fucking Hazard is on fire. Conte is really getting the best out of him and seems like he's got the right system now.
  9. This club is such a joke lol. Sent from my SM-G920T using Tapatalk
  10. They should get it done before the season starts. Not fuck around and try to get a bargain. Looks like we aren't winning the title this year. Sent from my SM-G920T using Tapatalk
  11. Come on. He's young and rich. He is allowed to have some fun. Sent from my SM-G920T using Tapatalk
  12. LMAO Sent from my SM-G920T using Tapatalk
  13. How did they dodge a bullet? They got a top notch young cb.
  14. Whoever handles transfers need to lose their job. The only good signings in the last 3 seasons have been Costa, Matic, and Cesc. Sent from my SM-G920T using Tapatalk
  15. This club is so stupid. They seemingly just spend as much money as they can on players they don't need and aren't world class. How about spending that money on a top notch defender? That would pry nearly any defender for any club. Lol this clubs board is ridiculous. Sent from my SM-G920T using Tapatalk
  16. I remember when I was saying he was the future of our defense and everyone laughed. Now they get all pissy he might be sold. Sent from my SM-G920T using Tapatalk
  17. Dortmund making moves. Gotze and Schurrle. Noice. Sent from my SM-G920T using Tapatalk
  18. So costa is gone. Smh. Sent from my SM-G920T using Tapatalk
  19. Soo..is he gonna play with Costa orrr??? Sent from my SM-G920T using Tapatalk
  20. Bet City get him for £30m or so. Lol Sent from my SM-G920T using Tapatalk
  21. About time. He wasted that teams talent at two tournaments. Sent from my SM-G920T using Tapatalk
  22. Maybe he can get Matic to stop playing like shit. Sent from my SM-G920T using Tapatalk
  23. Actually do though. If JT is one of the starting cb's mext season we can wave goodbye to a pl title and cl football. This club needs major revamping and that costs money.
  24. Fuck it, pay the 50m. Not sure why we even care about the price, it's not our money. Sent from my SM-G920T using Tapatalk
