  1. Re:Clinton vs Sanders on Hertz Is Pulling a Disney · · Score: 1

    Mid-term elections don't go well for Democrats

    Yes, because every time they win, they prove what weasels they are. This was particularly blatant between 2008 and 2010. The democrats intentionally reneged, and the people said *fuck it! why bother?* If you really want to see results, purge all the democrats AND republicans out of the House, and fill it with independents. Party corruption is simply too pervasive to do it any other way.

    But Bernie would push Congress

    Heh, I hope you're kidding. These people depend on congressional gridlock, to avoid blame for reneging on their campaign promises. If you hope to get anything out of Sanders, you have to elect a super majority in congress to hold his feet to the fire and eliminate any excuses they will try to lay on you. Congress makes the law, not the president. They put it on his desk. With a clean House, the president will have little power to stop it, even if it were Trump or Cruz. In short, you need a congress to push the president, with a fat majority to override the vetoes.

    Then we need to demand lower prices to go with the lower costs of production. And we have to demand a basic income for those displaced from their jobs. The machines are not the problem here.

    This isn't just a Republican/Democrat debate, it's a more complex split.

    No, it's a simple cost/benefit ratio. Republican/Democrat is irrelevant.

    You gotta vote for it. A 95% reelection rate is a reflection of voters who don't give a damn or are corrupt themselves, not the corporations.

    The H1-B program was designed by big companies. There is no 'abuse'.

    Time for congress to step back and rethink.

    First, you have to elect one that would do that. It simply ain't gonna happen with the bunch that is always reelected. Every single election brings an opportunity to completely purge the House. If it doesn't get done, I cannot sympathize. Sweep 'em all out!

    The person who invented the wall wart should be taken out and shot. I can only use two of the six outlets on the power strip. Some are so heavy they fall out of the wall socket. "cable--brick--cable" eliminates that problem. Flexing the cable when you're packing the thing two or three times a day, every day, is going to break it pretty quick, no matter how well it is made.

    That's what they don't want. They want to stop foreign packets from getting to their citizens.

    I understand perfectly. I am only interested in getting around it. If they cut the cables and/or mess with DNS and NAT translation, let's send in a radio signal for them to piggyback. Even at 300 baud, it's better than nothing.
