    Meet the Pastor Running as a Progressive Republican to Get Big Money Out of Politics

    Seriously? You think the only ones who take risks are the wealthy? What about those in 2008 who lost all of their jobs and had no say in the risks that Wall Street bankers took? What about those that lost their pensions and 401ks? It blows my mind that someone can honestly say that lower and...

    Meet the Pastor Running as a Progressive Republican to Get Big Money Out of Politics

    Obviously I don't understand your argument. What do you think Media is if it isn't a corporation? Removing money from politics means removing corporations ability to fund Super Pacs. If corporations can't fund Super Pacs with unlimited money they can't influence politics. Therefore, since media...

    Meet the Pastor Running as a Progressive Republican to Get Big Money Out of Politics

    What does this mean? Have you ever considered expanding on your posts past claiming you are being insulted or not responding in short generic replies with little substance like this? Calling someone an idiot you have never met and are judging based on one article online is immature and provides...

    I don't think you understand what media is. It isn't some special entity that operates outside of a corporation LOL

    2017: Terror Attack Attempted in Europe Every Nine Days

    What kind of question is that? None, obviously. To imply that there is a limit is insulting in itself. If you can not come up with a better question than that to me then that is disappointing. There is nothing wrong with pointing out irrational fear when it exists. Unless you think that we...

    At 4.7 percent unemployment rate Americans are working. This idea that slashing corporate taxes is going to somehow be passed down to consumers via either more jobs (already low unemployment) or cheaper consumer products (why lower prices when people are already buying and employed?) doesn't...

    Taking the money out of politics does not hand over the power to the media if corporations are treated at the same level as individuals when donating to political causes.

    2017: Terror Attack Attempted in Europe Every Nine Days

    Over 3,000 people die from car wrecks each day. From a quick glance and seeing 2015 numbers, just over 28,000 people died due to terrorism in 2015 globally. Including war torn countries like Iraq, Afghanistan and Syria. That is roughly less than 30 a day. Simple math shows that most people in...

    Meet the Pastor Running as a Progressive Republican to Get Big Money Out of Politics

    Why do you assume that he wants to transfer money to the mainstream media? Just because he didn't explicitly detail his every belief and agenda in a one page blog post about him? I imagine that someone like him would oppose Citizens United which would go a long way from keeping major media...

    Stock Market Thread

    One of my hobbies is watching/playing the stock market. I haven't done it much over the last few years but I recently have started to dive back in. Who else trades? What are you looking at? I'm currently in Ford and Rite Aid with Rite Aid being my short play and Ford my long. I am in at their...

    Meet the Pastor Running as a Progressive Republican to Get Big Money Out of Politics

    Why call him an idiot just because you disagree with him? Why do some insist on being disrespectful based solely on difference of opinion? If you disagree with someone they are a liberal, idiot etc. It is immaturity at its finest.

    'Christian Post' Accidentally Publishes Charles Stanley Obituary?

    When I owned https://www.mustangevolution.com we had an article ready to publish when Carroll Shelby died. I've always viewed it as normal practice.

    Fallacy: Personal Attack

    I base my view on you by how you post on here. You constantly call people liberals simply because they disagree with you. You have called me a liberal. It is absurd to take this approach to someone when discussing issues. To label someone as a far left liberal simply because their view does not...

    You are too thinned skinned to be inside a political discussion area if you believe that any of my posts toward you are insulting. I have not insulted you and I am not the only one that thinks this. I have responded to you. I do not believe that giving the top .02 percent a $353 billion tax cut...

    Meet the Pastor Running as a Progressive Republican to Get Big Money Out of Politics

    Then stop ignoring the rest of my post content and just picking and choosing what you respond to. This is my argument on why I disagree with you. Your insistence on ignoring entire pieces of content to pick out what you want to respond to keeps any meaningful conversation from happening between...

    Meet the Pastor Running as a Progressive Republican to Get Big Money Out of Politics

    I didn't ignore it I simply do not believe trickle down economics works. I certainly do not support massive corporate tax breaks that will pile on to the National Debt as well. Especially with a 4.7 unemployment rate. America is at work right now. Help the Middle and Lower class by cutting the...

    Meet the Pastor Running as a Progressive Republican to Get Big Money Out of Politics

    I see a problem with any party that lets CEOs hold the middle and lower class hostage by continuing to amass fortunes while they lay off people. The solution to this should not be to reward these companies with massive tax cuts.

    I'm not going to waste anymore time explaining that to you and future off topic posts from you to me will be ignored. I clearly pointed it out in my previous post to you. If you do not understand it then maybe someone else can explain it to you.

    In theory. However when the cuts that achieve that do not impact the wealthy and only impact the middle class and poor it doesn't make sense. Right now Trump's ideal situation continues to pad the wallets of those in his class and does not provide relief to middle and lower class.
