    No because E85 is about 35% cheaper than gasoline. And, as it says in the article, can have 20-50% fewer emissions per mile over its lifecycle.

    They did specify total efficiency, did you not read the summary? It says 20-50% reduction in lifecycle emissions, which include production and transportation of the fuel as well as burning it.

    His proposed tax plan pretty much only reduces taxes for the super rich. The high end of the brackets will have up to 7% decreased marginal rate, while low and middle income families will see somewhere between .5-1% decreased rate unless you are a single parent or have more than two children as a couple, then you could actually pay more taxes. Also if you are a single person with no children making between about $120k-190k you will pay more taxes.

    If you are playing a rigged game for hundreds of years where your team gets systemic advantages, builds up property and wealth, you can't just say "ok now everyone is equal, that is fair." It is not fair. How do white people not understand this?

    Except that 4 days after the election he appointed 100% career politician Washington insiders to his advisory team, dropped his guarantee of congressional term limits and backtracked on almost all of his major campaign promises.

    Yes: with Hillary out of the picture, they are worried that they can't buy influence for $250k a pop from a corrupt crony capitalist anymore.

    And what has Donald Trump done in the last 30 years that makes you think he can't be bought? I would say his track record of doing pretty much any unscrupulous thing possible for money would imply the opposite.

    I guess we have gotten to the point where you can't defend your hypocrisy any more so you resort to name calling as a desperate attempt to hold on to your fragile world view. But sure, keep believing in your media coverups or whatever other conspiracy theory you want. Let me know when your manifesto is done and I'll make sure to give it a read.

    Again, nobody gives a shit about your facts. You are not a federal prosecutor, or a federal judge, and are not qualified to find someone guilty. That is not how any of this works.

    You never asked me my standard. I happen to think that you are right, the media jump to conclusions far too often and people should be presumed innocent until proven guilty. I just thought it was particularly hilarious that you had so much cognitive dissonance in literally two back to back sentences. None of your examples prove guilt because "random Slashdot commenter's opinion" is not the standard of proof we use for these situations. They were all either acquitted or never tried. Also, I don't really give a shit about Bill Clinton one way or the other, but he was not disbarred as you are claiming. He had his license suspended.

    Bill and Hillary have both been proven to be guilty, though the latter was given a free pass and the DOJ denied the ability to prosecute.

    Complains about innocent until proven guilty and due process, immediately claims Clintons are guilty even though they have never been convicted. Such doublethink... frankly amazing.

    “Can’t we just drone this guy?” Clinton supposedly asked, according to unidentified State Department sources.

    Unidentified sources also told me that she gets off on killing puppies.

    Especially with the history of people who've crossed the Clinton's ending up dead?
