And suddenly one day for no reason at all, people voted Hitler into power

National, state, regional, and local politics. Who's doing what to whom, and what you can do about it. How-to-get-action messages are encouraged. "How the government fucked up my life" stories are encouraged. Sharing new methods for cheating on taxes is encouraged. Sample "letters to congresscritters" are encouraged. Apathy and "I can't do anything" posts are discouraged. Left, right, centrist, or any other form of political-economic systems are all up for discussion. Be prepared to defend yourself, or at least have a good line of bullshit ready. Extensive quoting of economists and philosophers is frowned upon. We want to hear what YOU have to say, not what some constipated, impotent, dead guy dreamt up while suffering from the DT's over a hundred years ago thought.

Look at this fucking mess. 700 million to the Sudan? 500 million to Israel? 600 dollars to American citizens. Oh and they're making streaming a felony and criminalizing meme making. What a fucking joke.

Yeah, I keep seeing that, but the thing is we're not handing each Sudan citizen $700,000,000.


As for the streaming being a felony and criminalizing memes, what do you mean?

Like if I stream a movie or event that you didn't pay for I could go to jail for a felony. It's really not the crime that I have contention with, it's the fact that it was even thought of at all. The meme thing I assume is a lot like the UKs meme laws, I'll have to look more into it.

Giving money to other countries should be the last thing on our docket list. 500 million for Israel? Why? We have tons of problems here where we don't need to be sending hundreds of millions of dollars over seas while our citizens don't even get enough money to pay for a months worth of rent on a one room flat.

I agree 100% that we shouldn't be sending money to other countries when we have people homeless and dying here,

its obvious they just send money to get wars started - and from there weapons manufacturing is a great scheme.

Sally is a "democrat" and Bill is a "republican", but those words have lost all meaning. Point is, they are friends because they want to bomb Iran.

also criminalizing things is code for slave labour, since there is no pay in prisons ( i think ).

No, there's pay in prison, it's just like 80 cents an hour.

i mean yeah but you know that prison is no cozy cottage and that 80 cents an hour won't even give you much savings even if you are there 5 years. I think they should forget paying people and stop criminalzing everything.

people who say "gulag" can go fuck their heads out of their asses because we have the same but with a little pay, less cold, and more racism.

At 40 hours a week that's over $8000

At 30 hours a week that's over $6000

Even at 20 hours a week that's $4000.
