for the for profit prison industry. Stopping crime isn't their goal. Locking people up is. This is also why Marijuana will never be legalized so long as we have private prisons.
the rampant corruption, the back pedaling on all his campaign promises (backed down on Carrier, supports Guest Worker programs & TPP, just gave Big Pharma a big present, filled his cabinet with Goldman Sach's folks that embody the swamp... I could go on) or the fact that no matter what his poll #s don't budge from 38-40%.
The first year of this crap I could chalk up to the news cycle catching up with folks who don't watch politics. But at this point folks are sticking with him out of either stubbornness or a desire to see those "coastal elites" mad. That's some mighty fine face spiting right there, Lou.
We completely dominate Afghanistan. We got _everything_ we wanted. They didn't "fight us to a stand still". Read my post again. Every now and then they blow up somebody who doesn't matter. Meanwhile we get the oil pipelines and endless war we want that keeps billions of your tax dollars and mine flowing into the hands of the Military Industrial complex instead of roads, schools and health care.
They're not winning by any measure. They playing right into our hands. Not that they can do a damn thing about it. The only thing that can stop this cycle is the American voter. If you happen to be one of them please wake up already.
because that was a big part of why the founding fathers wanted everybody armed. They wanted the militias to handle defense. Even back then it was understood that untrained citizens couldn't beat trained soldiers. We didn't really 'win' the revolutionary war so much as Britain gave up to go focus on the French (who wanted us split from the Brits to weaken their enemy).
As it stands you're weapons are pointless against the US Military. Even if we removed _all_ restrictions and let you have rocket launchers, grenades and fully automatic rifles you'd run out of supplies and your lack of military discipline, training and supply lines means you'd be gunned down. A few like you might live up in the wood and occasionally come done and blow up a school bus like they do in Afghanistan. But you'd never kill anyone who really mattered.
The above sounds harsh because, well, it's the truth, and the truth is bloody fucking _harsh_. If you want to prevent oppression though the good news is it's not hard. Fight bigotry in all forms. It's the #1 tool of oppressors to divide the working class. Make sure _everyone_ is taken care of. Food, Shelter, Healthcare and education. The #2 tool of oppressors is scarcity. It keeps us at each other's throats.
But please, abandon this notion of fighting back with violence. It doesn't work. Best case you get to change out the oppressors. Worst case you become a terrorist.
is a Regan appointee and well know to be partisan. It's entirely possible he'll try to shut down the investigation himself. The Republican party has been stacking the courts for decades for just such an occasion.
I don't think Trump and Co will ever be found guilty of treason in the legal sense, but any fool following the money can see they've already sold us out more times than can be counted. Colloquially his administration guilty at least 5 times over. Note that I said "his administration". Trump's a con man and a patsy. He's not smart enough to sell us out the Russians. The people around him OTOH...
that I see tech almost completely dominated by people here on work visas, to the point where companies have completely shut down their training departments because they don't have to train anymore. There's not enough H1-Bs to fill that many positions. The program is big and corrupt but not that big and corrupt.
Thing is, I don't see anything changing. Folks voted for Trump because he said he'd stop all this crap, and now he supports TPP, DACA, and literally told his supporters he wanted workers to come in and do your jobs. Meanwhile Bernie Sanders, the one politician who could have put the brakes on this crap, couldn't even get enough support to overcome a little back stabbing from his party (which let's remember Trump easily did).
What we need is folks to stop giving a crap about pointless shit (Guns, Abortion, Gay Marriage, you know, wedge issues) and pay attention to the economy. But good luck with that.
in key districts. So it's not fair to say there was no impact. The election was so close it's entirely possible this was the proverbial straw. Also, there's strong evidence that Russia got ahold of tons of voter demographics during the election during one of the hacks. At the very least they would have used these to target ads. There's also some evidence they shared that data with the Republican party.
All that said, if Hilary hadn't been so damn arrogant and had just campaigned in the Rust belt none of this would be happening. She really was the worst candidate in history.
This isn't even news. It would be news if they _weren't_ making phone hacking tools. This is just more propaganda to lead up to a war. Right now it's pretty innocuous because it's just getting started, but if the media keeps falling in line behind the administration we're gonna have Iraq II: Electric Boogaloo.
They're doing the same thing with Iran, btw. Don't fall for it.
you'll either get hyper inflation as an unlimited supply is created instantly or you'll get a heavily manipulated currency that a few players control by handling out stakes. The point of "proof of work" is to make things more egalitarian, which is one of thing features crypto currency proponents champion. Take that away and all you've got is a pyramid scheme or an out of control loop spewing coins.
but one of the main arguments for ending fiat currencies is they can be manipulated in ways that hurt workers. I'm not saying any of that's true (I kinda like the stability that comes from a fiat currency), just that a lot of the Crypto currency cheerleaders list it as a feature.
who exerts this much effort and energy (literally, it's a ton of electricity) for yet another made up currency (and one mostly used to purchase illegal drugs because heaven forbid somebody smoke a little pot and not go to jail). It's not like Crypto currencies even fix the problems with fiat currencies. They're even easier for central bodies to manipulate to the detriment of the working class. Heck, by all accounts there's 4 guys out of China playing the price of Bitcoin like a fiddle. And that's before the likes of Goldman Sach's (who are a defacto arm of the US Government) step in.
it's probably not that subjective. You could pretty easily show it if you had the data, a few decades of voter states and a background in statistics. But that's still years and years of work. Historians might tell us what the impact was but Trump will be long gone and the damage done.
Our various intelligence agents have said this is all being done by the Russian government through shell companies. That's pretty much a Russian agent. There's also been several independent articles (Colbert did a long one during the election) about how these "Troll Farms" were actually just fronts for the Russian government.
That makes sense when you think about it. Would anybody really spend tens of thousands of dollars on Facebook ads for the lulz? OK, maybe 4chan, but it would be something about a party van or Boaty McBoatface.
Just because something happens all the time doesn't mean it's not a problem. It's a problem because it's not propaganda in the traditional sense. This is a hostile foreign power. Their interests are directly opposed to us. Their purpose is to weaken us. That's why it's a problem.
The goal is to get real and accurate information that people can understand into their hands. When people work off of bad information bad things happen. When that information is specifically crafted to cause bad decisions on a national stage terrible things happen.
and bullshit nobody's buying. Wages are low. Nobody's feeling like unemployment's low because of that. Wages aren't increasing. Whoever told you that is lying (or you made it up). Google it. Wages have been stagnant. Economists have been debating why because you're not allowed to say the reason is the rich are hording all the money. Companies didn't hand out bonuses. Unions fought for wage increases, lost, and took small one time bonuses as a consolation prize.
Your narrative is objectively false. If you believe in it please stop. You're hurting yourself and everyone around you. If you're lying in the service of the ultra wealthy then they will turn on you. You are not one of them, nor will you ever be. You can be one of us. But if you stand against us then we'll all be cut down by their scythes or made chattel.
this is meant to stop morons who find a USB drive in the parking lot and plug it into their work computer. And yes, there have been several data breaches traced back to this rather lame method...
except for a few vanity projects like Big Blue. They're mostly a consultancy company now (and most of that is Indians). They everybody in the states who wasn't a salesperson back in the mid 2000s. It made/. when they announced it. End of an era and all that rot.
for Microsoft. And if you want hardened firmware for the tablet you give your kid to watch youtube be my guest. It'll be $1500. Me? I'll stick to my $60 el-cheapo. I don't always need perfect security.

they get 2% of the gross. They'll cash anything.
which is why the government funds science. Albeit in the most round about way possible in the States.
just a bunch of businessmen. The most "influential" are guys who go around buying up companies and using tech other people developed.
