Are you talking about Stalinists? People who would have folks killed en-masse? Then sure, punch away. But if you are talking about Democratic socalists who believe that our social saftey net should be a little more secure and better protect the most vulnerable among us but do not preach that we should have people killed for their race or religion... no, those are not people you should punch.
If you voted for someone who you thought was a walking disaster you are a complete idiot and I really don't care what you think.
This isn't about the last election, this isn't about Hillary, this is about Nazis... This is about blatant out right racist assholes who should not be given the insane amount of protection that they are given. The KKK can parade around "openly" exposing death to tons of American citizens, people like you and me and they are protected for it but if a few black people get together to say "hey, how about you stop shooting us in record numbers" and they get beaten and arrested. That shit is fucked up... that is as anit-American as it gets.
These aren't people who are simply fiscally conservative, they are hate mongers, they would have huge swaths of Americans eliminated simply for the color of their skin, and if you support them, if you stand with the hate mongers, then you are just as bad as they are.
These voting protections you are talking about weren't in place just a short while ago. You would need to show that vote buying was happening then.... IE, the house was flooding before we build the levees.
It is always right to punch a Nazi. It always has been and it always will be.
You are so concerned about some hateful shit of a girl getting pepper sprayed... where were you when peaceful protesters on college campuses were getting hosed down with pepper spray by an agent of the state for a simple sit in?
And here you are saying Anit-fascist like its a fucking bad thing.... you are supposed to be anti-fascist... thats like, the ideal we should be striving towards as a species.
Yeah because its so easy to hire qualified tech people these days, particularly in the major tech hubs where the unemployment rate for tech workers is incredibly low.
Well thats a lot more functional at least, but it does seem to fall into some of the same traps as before... this average wage data. They were supposed to be getting paid above average before but most H1Bs seem to be getting paid considerably less then the other, native employees... So if the base data is flawed its going to be difficult to keep this from being gamed.
Land is often the expensive part of a house... I suspect they were building in an area where land is relatively cheap give the implied economics, but who knows, maybe she has a trust fund.
Shark bite stuff is WAY too expensive (though cool). I'm all for PEX but if your project is more than just adding a shut off valve I think its worth it to buy a $20 tool to do the connections permanently. Still, you are right that its not that hard.
100K for an H1B visa holder would be a steal in my employment market, and in San Francisco it would be super freaking cheap. Its hard to peg a good number when wages (and cost of living) vary so much across the country.
Seems to me this is just likely to concentrate H1B visas in high cost areas like San Francisco and New York where they do get higher base pay than elsewhere (although still well below the market rate).
Not everyone in this country gets into college and we pay. Some are blind to the need for financial aid and some are not.
I would be very interested to hear about a country where everyone who finishes secondary school can go to college for free. I would also be curious what percentage of the population of that country takes advantage of it. Maybe you don't need high entry standards to manage free tuition. That seems like it would overwhelm the system, but perhaps that is not the case.
keep in mind, Accelerated was not skipping a grade, it was learning a year ahead of your peers and it only applied to a single class. You could be in Accelerated math but a normal level english class.... This was particularly nice because it let you get ahead at the things you were good at while not punishing you for not being exceptional at everything.
You could try to divide up classes at schools that have fewer students but the fact of the matter is you are not going to serve either group as well as you can when you have enough students to really sort them out by ability. Different schools of different sizes do different things. Its not perfect but we don't live in a perfect world. Many rural areas use area high schools to get around this, combining the students from several towns to get enough to be able to split them up for advanced and remedial classes.
I agree with you on the college thing... it would be awful if someone who could be an excellent engineer studied something that they were not as skilled because they couldn't afford the engineering degree.
I disagree with you on Football scholarships mostly because schools that give those out end up making more money per athlete on the games (which are attended by a ton of people who all buy tickets and concessions and then there are the TV rights as well, even video game rights where the students appearances are used with no compensation to them, only the school). Those kids play hard for no money while the school makes a ton off of them. Its a good deal for the schools as it is.
There will still be private universities for those who desire it... and the costs would have to come down since they would be competing wtih highly competitive super low cost state schools.
Yeah because its NATO operations that are costing us so much money compared to the wars we have stared all on our own, or the 6.5 trillion dollars that the Pentagon can't account for... or all the money spent on the F-35 the plane nobody wanted.
It has nothing to do with the fact that NATO is all thats standing between our presidents Dom, Master Putin, and the Scandinavian countries he really wants to invade.
I don't know where you went to high school but we have 4 levels. Remedial, Normal, Honors and Accelerated. Accelerated was taking a class, generally with students your age, but the stuff you would be learning would be for a full grade up. Not every class had Accelerated for every subject as I recall but it was the path to taking AP exams.
Places with lower populations have trouble managing so many classes per grade though, there just aren't enough students to break them up.
Just because school is free doesn't mean you don't have to get accepted. Thats the way it works in those countries that have higher admission standards. Of course part of those higher standards are likely driven by the fact that they get more applications because more people can afford to go, meaning they end up turning away a higher percentage of people.
The thing is, if state schools are free, private ones cant cost what they do now or they would have practically no students... or only students who couldn't get into the state schools. Prices would have to fall to the point where the school could show that the outcome for student is worth the cost of paying tuition in order to attract the best students.

Its really not that complicated.

Freedom of speech just means the government cant arrest you for saying it.
Maybe learn some shit before you open your mouth.
The scanning isn't bad as long as you are doing sufficient manual checks.

With Trump as president, within a few years those could be the exact same option.

I have all the rights I require to be successful and happy. I'm not sure what your problem is
literally everyone who builds a house.

How the fuck did that get past inspection? Unless there was an exposed plate and then your cabinet installers came in and covered it up.
Maybe you should have installed your own cabinets.

Including all that Pizza gate shit?
Why do you think that the people who made those posts then aren't the same rabid trump supporters we see now?
