Re: Miscellaneous news items that don't warrant their own thread

Yup. What happens when people do screw it up and now they have nothing left in old age? Just tell them tough luck, hope you die soon? People, a decent amount, will screw it up, no matter what. I'm certainly not saying we need to guarantee them a life of endless riches, but not being dirt poor and u...

Re: Miscellaneous news items that don't warrant their own thread

It's situational. If the sheriff is refusing to enforce mask-wearing or gun control then the sheriff is right. If the sheriff is refusing to enforce abortion restrictions then the sheriff is wrong. :coffee: So who ultimately decides what the sheriff gets to enforce? The sheriff does. Happens everyd...

Re: Political memes, Posters, Funny Pics, Etc.

Professor Hays was a wise man. I think Hayes was my Public Budgeting professor. Unremarkable, don't remember a thing about him. As I've told Fiver before, Professor Dennis Grady was the best professor in the Poly Sci department while I was there. I know I had him for that. And I think that is the a...

Re: Political memes, Posters, Funny Pics, Etc.

Kalm reminds me of Professor Allen Hays at UNI. Everything was Reagan's fault. Had a guy in the class that was great at proclaiming Reagan to be the most awesomest president ever. If he would get that in we were done with lecture for the day because Hays would go on a rant about how bad Reagan was.

Re: Political memes, Posters, Funny Pics, Etc.

At what expense and by what measurements? And it’s not as if seceding administrations didn’t adopt Reaganomics to significant degree. IE, zombie Reagan never really went away. Reaganomic policies raised middle class taxes 11 times , exploded the debt and consolidated power to the level of oligarchy...

Aren't those 12 indicted the ones that they knew would never show up in court? And related they dropped charges against 2 other Russian companies because they decided to fight back and filed for discovery?

Re: Biden’s mishandling of classified documents.

Sure, the cooperation angle is the difference between the two, but as the other poster said, another difference is a Vice President with no declassifying powers and a President who did have them while in office. From either side of the partisan aisle, this just doesn't look great for anyone. And th...

Re: Biden’s mishandling of classified documents.

So now we're up to a 3rd set of classified docs that Biden had.

Also seeing stuff that this is "worse" because he was VP when he took the docs and as VP didn't have the authority to take stuff like the President would have. Anyone know if that is true?

Re: The Ukraine Crisis

Congress wouldn't approve Rand Paul's push for an inspector general to monitor where the Ukraine money is going/being spent. Why not? Also Russia's entire military budget for 2023 is reported to be $84 billion.
