I don't know if we have reached equilibrium. But I think it's more complicated when it comes to the labor market to just say "oh ok, we'll raise wages to get rid of the labor shortage." This is especially true if th

I think it really comes down to what roles you assign to each level of government. For example, I think one of the main roles of the federal government is to maintain the military. I think a role of state and local governments is to maintai

The only person that would write something like this is a university professor whose income solely depends on the taxation of others.

"Outside of academia, almost everyone assumes that the money I get in my pay-packet before the deduction of taxes is, in some morally significant sense, ‘mine’." Oh so you mean like, in the real world?

Most people that say Taxation is theft aren't literally calling for zero taxes though. It's just a saying, and definitely a hyperbole. There are definitely specific functions of the government that need tax funds. They should get

Did they pay their "fair share"? See now you don't like that phrase...

When I say taxation is theft, I mean federal income taxes. I'd rather pay more to my state and local governments. I interact with those more local levels way more often and receive more benefits from them than from the federal governme

Everything you just said supports the person you're replying to's argument about a better public transit system. What's next, Bernie, do you believe that car ownership is a "right"?

I am against the IP subpoena because i think it is at least a violation of privacy and at most unconstitutional. It should be noted that I am also strongly against antifa and their tactics.

by krath94 9y ago
Sorry, but antifa is more than Anti-Trump Activists, they are dangerous. They attack people for political reasons and are largely unpunished because they wear all black and wear masks. They are the clowns that started fires in berkeley and

I'm on the right and the only thing I can think of is when some conservatives use "liberal" as a derogatory term but I don't think that's nearly as bad as calling someone racist or white supremacist, when they'

Google is pissed because the Internet is now under Title II making it nearly impossible for them to lay their fiber along public roads anymore. You know how to really fuck over Comcast? Allow google to bring Fiber to every major city. But t

I feel like the numbers they picked are intentionally misleading. Is the $73,000 the cost for no insurance or with insurance? I know it says average, but average out of which group?

Isn't the objective for both sides to provide affordable healthcare? I think they agree on the objectives, the means of getting there are where the disagreement comes from.

by krath94 9y ago
No the point of free market is that insurance is cheap enough that even healthy people buy it. Or even better, that healthcare costs are low enough that you don't even need insurance (that won't happen though because of the health

Would an actual detonation happen at that height? If so, how does it actually kill other than radiation?

"microaggressions" You mean someone saying something completely normal with no ill intention and someone else, for whatever reason, getting offended?

This article says "The Monopolies" and then names 5 companies that in some way or another compete with each other. I know what they're getting at, but these are not monopolies. Especially weird since using Monopoly in a plura

Agreed. Not to mention the bias that would be present at a Yale conference. I really hope political bias doesn't start finding its way into medical issues, because that would be terrifying. Also the graph they used for approval rating

In the states that have voter ID laws, getting the voter identification card is free. For example, look at Texas: http://www.dps.texas.gov/driverlicense/electionid.htm But I do agree that in general, it needs to be eas

It's sad that people generalize about people that vote Republican. Most republicans (or people that vote republican) I have met, including myself, have been supportive of the LGBT community. Not ALL Republicans are against LGBT, just l

Is he awful because you don't agree with him? Or because he actually did something awful? I have a feeling it's the first one.

Exactly my first thought, it's because he wrote it, why would they ask someone who didn't write it to perform it?
