Does not mean that full context does not exist. It simply means you are lazy. Do you need me to provide a LMGTFY link to "Donald Trump Full Speech 7/27" or can you do that much all by yourself? And just because it seems to be rocket science, change the goddamn date to what ever date you wish and you can find other speeches that he has made.
Since you are too lazy to perform a Google search I know damn well that you won't actually read, therefore here is a link so you can listen. https://www.youtube.com/watch?...
No, I do not believe you actually will listen either. You may hear some noise but listening requires some level of motivation.
I know it's really really hard to fact check, but give it a try sometime. As others have pointed out, there is a crafted narrative regarding Trump which the media across the board is spreading. Almost every major news outlet has the same exact story and spin, yet numerous third party people and sites read things completely differently and there are fringe shows which make it abundantly clear that the propaganda engine is running full steam.
Context matters. Not just with Trump but with anyone get their quotes in context. The nature of Trumps comment was easy to see sarcasm.
Non quoted quotes. Trump never said what TFA claims he said. The headline was a complete fabrication created by moving words around and removing context.
The massive amount of propaganda is known by a majority of the populace. This is why Hillary is down today to 40% versus Trumps 47%. The massive lies being spread by media is making things worse for Hillary.
There are whole lot of things to argue with Trump about, yet those arguments are ignored and the DNC and Hillary resort to race baiting and fear mongering with all kinds of easy to see false claims regarding his character.
The allegory of the cave is a 2 way lesson. It's not simply about why it's important to pull people out, it's a message for people seeking power that people don't go back into the cave easily.
No need to jump to the terrorism scenarios. Consider a ship riding lower than expected (sinking), a fishing net or other debris caught on a shipt, stormy seas moving heavy debris around, etc..
A whole lot of bad can happen, but people will I assume be happy with the risk.
Citizens are generally allowed to "actively manipulate elections".
So the DNC was not really manipulating the game, even though this is what all the emails prove, this was was just the "people".. er.. system at work? Your pants are burning, but hell maybe you get paid for it. I won't respond to your next attempt at trolling with lies.
I only partly agree with this. If a foreign country is trying to affect our elections, that's something worth considering. Especially because if they'll do something minor like this they may do something major and less-easily-traced later.
So people within our borders actively manipulating the elections is fine, but someone outside of our elections proving the fraud most of us suspected is bad. Got it.
This is very true. The DNC was unhappy with Sanders, but never thought he had a chance of winning and didn't do much against him. Some talk, but no action.
That is a Red Herring. Sanders was the only candidate allowed to compete and Hillary is so bad she would have lost if not for the cheating in the party.
I really don't know how primaries should work.
How about parties work as we tell people they work. The people get a group of candidates from which to choose from, and the party follows the people's voice. Does that not match the exact definition of "Democratic" that the party is named after?
That's a red herring. The DNC candidate has been under near-constant "investigations"
The Mark Twain quote about the 3 kinds of lies comes to mind reading this one. Hillary has a very long history of being viewed negatively. Her being under "investigations" does not sweep things under the rug, but is surely not the only issue with the negativity facing the person's statement. At least as important, these people (Hillary et. al) have all been found to be GUILTY of the charges people are investigating.
When it happens. As it stands today I fully expect the exit polls to show Trump with a double digit lead and yet somehow Hillary wins. It _just_ happened that way with Sanders, so you have to expect as much. I am actually quite amazed that the DNC is not a full out riot based on the leaked emails. The corruption was obvious enough when Hillary won 6 out of 6 coin tosses and exit polls flipped in almost every race. Now there is proof as to a more broad corruption and collusion.
Look, I don't have any need to show you research which is easy to find. Hillary claiming to carry hot sauce in her purse while talking on a black radio show, and thousands of other "little" lies are all over. The excuse I'm guessing you will use is "she is just pandering" which does not change the fact that she lies about both big and small things all the time.
Stop trying to deny Clinton's lies and excuse her behavior by fallacious means. Clinton is a liar, and demonstrates a pathological level of lying. She should be medicated in a home, not running for President.
If you want to complain about Trump change the subject. Trump does not always say the smartest things, but he is a terrible liar and does not do so very often because it's so obvious. (See his claim of being an Evangelist). He has his own problems sure, but being a pathological liar is not one of them.
The small meaningless lies should really worry you more than the whoppers, especially when there is a steady stream for decades. An occasional whopper shows a person who makes mistakes and does not like accountability, a somewhat normal behavior. The constant lying indicates mental illness.
And where exactly do you propose to get said 3 Trillion dollars without causing mass inflation and making your dollar worth nothing? No fraud or waste? You have to be absolutely batshit crazy. EVERY Government program is full of fraud and abuse today. What sort of delusional world do you live in where by some type of fairy magic (or something) UBI is free of fraud and corruption? No wonder you post anonymously.
There are over 318 Million Americans. A "Basic Income" of 10,000/year would not be enough for anyone to live on and would cost 3.2 Trillion dollars. Spending 10 Trillion dollars would still have people in Poverty, and far exceeds our current GDP.
BI does not fix or modify any of the current problems. Corruption, waste, and fraud will still be a big problem. The only difference is that now everyone can play the game.
Contrary to what the story tellers are claiming, things are not very good in the overwhelming majority of Socialist countries. See the unemployment rates all across Europe. See the debt levels across the same. This is why the UK wanted out of the European Union, it's not doing very well for the majority of the people in it, it works for the bankers and politicians.
Are you attempting to re-write history or just ignoring it? Have any idea how many East Germans starved to death under Russian control? How much food did the US and West Germans drop into East Germany? How many people were killed trying to escape that great and free country? Do you know how many WWII bombed out buildings were still in East Germany at the time of Unification? It was a horrible mess, go read about it if you don't know anyone from there (I have family in Germany)
Communism _is_ the problem, read the frigging book, understand the basic planks to achieve and maintain it.
1. Abolition of private property and the application of all rents of land to public purposes.
2. A heavy progressive or graduated income tax.
3. Abolition of all rights of inheritance.
4. Confiscation of the property of all emigrants and rebels..
5. Centralization of credit in the hands of the state, by means of a national bank with State capital and an exclusive monopoly.
6. Centralization of the means of communications and transportation in the hands of the State.
7. Extension of factories and instruments of production owned by the state, the bringing into cultivation of waste lands, and the improvement of the soil generally in accordance with a common plan.
8. Equal liability of all to labor. Establishment of industrial armies, especially for agriculture.
9. Combination of agriculture with manufacturing industries, gradual abolition of the distinction between town and country, by a more equitable distribution of population over the country.
10. Free education for all children in public schools. Abolition of children's factory labor in its present form. Combination of education with industrial production. * Read Marx and you will see this is for indoctrination and propaganda, not for an educated society *
Of course Communism is the problem. Communism would work if humans were perfect altruistic beings. We are not.
East germany never had a particular low standard of living.
North Korea is a millitary dictatorship.
And your remark about China: back way off on the commie central planning
You see? It is not communism, that is the problem, but the hybris lies in the men or commitees who think they can plan a nations economy 5 years ahead in every detail... which basically means: your argument has nothing to do with UBI, or communism.
You don't know anything about communism to make that claim, sorry. Read the planks, and then look at the Governments. China claims it's not communist but sure as hell follows all the planks of communism. Hell, the DPRK calls itself a Republic, does that mean they are? I really hope that the concept of an ideology is completely lost on you.
Show me the working Utopia. See China, Russia, most countries in South America, most countries in Europe who have gone full Socialist, see Canada. There are various extremes of brutality and freedom, but all of the examples you find have a rapidly diminishing standard of Freedom if one ever existed (China/Russia) to begin with.
Don't like modern examples, go through history. Stories and attempts at Utopia date back to our earliest written history. Socrates can tell you all about it and why it fails. If given a choice between sitting on your ass and getting paid and working and getting paid, the _majority_ will sit on their ass.
I really hate to call names, but this garbage really needs to stop getting spread around. If you want communism get the fuck out of the US and move to China or Russia! Be very happy in your Utopia, and leave us Free people alone!
Look, I get that the drive by idiot is going to think "Oh cool, everyone gets free money." because it sounds so damn easy. Reality is kept far away from those people however, because when you start to look at it the only possible way to have Utopia is to make everyone a slave. READ THE GODDAMN STORIES (there are several and all end up the same)!.
1. Basic income - Requires a uniform standard of living across the board. You get a bed, not a water bed. You get a house, which must not be special because it has to cost exactly the same as every other house. You can't "save" for that new gaming system, because your standard of living would be higher than your neighbors. What's that? Kiss the right ass and you can have it? Got it, so corruption still works in an enslaved society but freedom and justice won't. You must be smart enough to realize that humans are still running things, though probably not bright enough to understand that an estimated 20% are narcissistic sociopaths to some degree. We have several very large real world examples you can go live in today, or study.
2. Basic income - Requires a uniform Cost of living across the board. Detroit area market is about 30K for a 2,000 square foot house. Dallas Texas is about 300K for a 2,000 square foot house. But we have to be uniform so Houses in Detroit now cost 100K and Dallas cost 100K, you can't have a different cost of living if you are giving a flat rate of cash to everyone in lieu of other social welfare programs. If you invested in Dallas, or you can't afford a house in Detroit, fuck right off because you can't have a different standard of living. (For the feeble minded, an attempt to have variable rates for variable locations will result in cheating immediately. Once again, there are several real world examples for you to study or go live in.)
3. Uniform cost and standard of living require _ALL_ jobs to pay the same wage regardless of any skills, education/training, or experience in the task. A Doctor can't make more than a janitor, because his standard of living would be higher and his educational investment would require more. That is totally unfair, and can't be allowed.
Water heads spreading Basic Income mythology and trying to sell communism are free to leave my country. Don't let the door hit you in the ass on the way out, and don't come crying back when you find that Utopia in Russia and China don't exist. Those are your attempts at Utopia to study.
Ahh, so when your argument is demonstrated to be false you make ad hominem attacks claiming the person making the demonstration is paranoid. What an amazingly well thought out reply! *sarcasm dripping*
Huawei is not part of the Chinese Government? The facade of company names fronting Chinese programs makes them match Western principles of liberty and business?
Reality check time: Chines Companies enrich the Chinese Government, not the populace. People not in Government who make loads of money are at constant and _real_ threat of arrest and confiscation of wealth. Business people are regularly executed in China, and Government corruption is rampant. Proven by the wrong players also being arrested and executed for "corruption".
The world outside of your house does not match the world inside your house. You have to get out and look around prior to attempting to spread opinions based in ignorance. FWIW, China is no the only country with this same problem. Western societies are not immune to corruption. However, a totalitarian Government ensures that the changes never favor the populace.
Why is China allowed to sue anyone for patent infringement anywhere except in China?
In the last 40 years how much have they stolen? Is anything they could possibly patent today free of that stolen information and property?
OTOH, Does Samsung think they will collect anything at all from China? Maybe the point is simply defamation, which is fine in my opinion.
For the apologist, I fully understand the concept of forgiveness. That concept requires something called repentance. If the latter does not happen then the former should not happen. China can today claim altruism, but they have never repented so you are a fool to believe it.
If any warrant can be trumped up, the logical end point is that you don't believe in warrants to begin with.
No, absolutely not. The logical endpoint is that a warrant is a tool that can be used for either good or evil. All tools should be evaluated on a case by case basis. If your logic was true, it would mean nobody could own a screwdriver or a frying pan. Those tools have been used as a murder devices, so must always be a murder device.
I didn't get past the summary which for me is rare. It's like some weird Penthouse Forum story, written by a person who is completely oblivious to reality and no experience or knowledge of prostitution. I mean, they could have paid a real prostitute money to interview them, but instead they just made shit up. Really stupid shit at that.
Usually there is a purpose for this kind of trash, but in this case I'm really stumped. Maybe they think they will normalize people giving hookers info by making elaborately false claims?
The claim that BI works is wrong, and it really should not take a whole lot of thought to make you realize it. Start by studying the current Government Welfare and see how it works. It does not move anyone out of poverty, and quite frankly it is abused by a massive amount of people.
Why did they make SNAP all card based and put restrictions on what you can purchase? Because an extremely large percentage of people were not purchasing food for their kids, they were drinking and smoking the money away. So what do you believe will happen when someone gets a basic check? Same damn thing.
Now what happened when people smoked away their food stamps? Did we cut them off? No, that would be cruel to the kids. We had to come up with other money from numerous other sources, and the bad behaviors still don't change.
Taking from the productive people to give to the unproductive incentivizes non-productivity. That is the only way to give everyone money, by taking it from people that have it. That is why all communist countries must be tyrannical. Fear is the only other incentive, and that incentive paralyzes innovation and thought. It is the Dark ages versus Renaissance. That is the reality of BI.
If you want to see the experiment in action, go live in China and become a Chinese citizen. How about instead of "giving" them money we continue to have jobs so that people can work.
