Also the argument is kind of weird, "don't ban rape, people will still figure out a way to hurt other people, so ... no point"
- p_monk 11y agoIsrael Hayom is indeed the largest paper daily in Israel. There's really no other paper that's even close at this point. Yediot Ahronot was a long-time incumbent, but they simply can't compete. http://www.nytimes.com/2014/04/08/opinion/rosner-how-to-silence-the-israeli-right.html http://www.nytimes.com/2014/04/08/opinion/rosner-how-to-sile... I'm not arguing that we shouldn't take steps to take money out of politics. My argument is yes, let's do this, but let's be realistic about what it will achieve. At the same time, if we really care about eliminating the role money plays in politics, then we need to work towards a system with an equitable distribution of wealth.
