"I have friends ashamed of politician guy X" weighs little as an argument for or against anyone. The mongols still hold Gengis Khan in a quite high regard despite he was the destroyer of civilizations, so now what? However, "i do not support candidate X because reason Y will not be beneficial for nation Z" does.

http://forums.obsidian.net/topic/85040-us-elections-2016/?p=1794586 It was a rule put in place in 2012 in order to **** with Ron Paul and make it look like the party was united behind Mitt Romney. Now it is the other way around and the party thinks that it is open season against Trump.

Off-shoot. What the frame of reference? Is it between III-IV? between VI-VII? during any of those? Why is there another Death Star? Where's everyone else from the other movies? Why are they talking about The Empire when it was the First Order in the new movie? What's going on? It's before IV and tells the story of how the Rebel Alliance got the plans to the Death Star. Meh, boring.

What's this? an offshoot? fan-fiction? Why doesn't Hurlie have an avatar anymore? I'm confused, halp.

Rawwrr, catfight. The democratic primary is starting to get interesting. Has any new polls from NY emerged yet?

Some people just need a gentle push to get into the right track. It's harmless.

Dismissal with cherrypicking one point and answer with empty statements like "the current year", ergo you have absolutely no counterargument and weasel yourself out with gratulating yourself on your own self-percieved intelligence. Step up your game, even a child can spot this level of dishonesty.

Dude, you have nothing to fear but fear itself. Just roll with it.

Is Bruce from a family of bankers? That would actually make oodles of sense. He even has a family member in prison for some sort of Wall Street scandal. No not Wall Street scandal, inside trading. But his actions were condemned unequivocally by all, no one made excuses. You can work in the financial sector and be ethical and not break the law But yes Vals many members of my family are involved in the financial sector but that has got nothing to do with my real concern about this suggestion to break-up the banks or implement restructuring in the financial sector in the USA You ask what has not been implemented before from Trump or Sanders....many things they suggest are radical and never been implemented before..in fact conventional wisdom is vociferously against most of these idea....lets see Sanders : Restructuring of the financial sector in the USA : Never been done before Wrong, see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glass%E2%80%93Steagall_Legislation Sanders : Extreme taxing of the wealthiest Americans : Never been done before Wrong, scroll down to 1948 and look at the tax rate http://taxfoundation.org/sites/default/files/docs/fed_individual_rate_history_nominal.pdf Trump : We will bulld a wall between the USA and Mexico : Never been done before Wrong, the chinese great wall was built Trump : We will deport all 11 million illegal, mostly Latino's, citizens : Never been done before Wrong, it was done in already in the 50's https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Wetback Trump : We block all Muslims coming to the USA: Never been done before Wrong, the immigration act of 1924 effectively banned all immigration from Africa and Asia until 1965 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Immigration_Act_of_1924 I can on and on if you want but I think you get my point I can already forsee an "But that's not exactly what i meant"-answer.

Hear, hear.

GamerGate a boogieman? They've already released a mod that removes all mention of them being transgender, describing it as a "correction". Totally not a transphobic movement, though. And totally against politically-motivated censorship of video games, of course. Man, this whole thread is a cesspool. This debacle makes me ashamed to be associated with video games. lol Case in point.

Oh my, it seems like a missed one hell of a drama with this game; at least judging by the comments in this thread. The developers seems to have the mental capacity of children, the game bugged like no other, it is written poorly, characters are injected for superficial reasons, and GamerGate is the boogieman used for anyone critizing it. Oh well, it seems like a dodged a bullet with this one.

Pffft, like it is something wrong to objectify women to begin with.

Gromnir can legally protect most o' our American dollars in nevada, delaware and the virgin islands. why use panama? if am a criminal who can't use legal options? is, we s'pose, other reasons, but am doubting such folks is gonna be identifiable w/o a team o' forensic accountants doing searches. HA! Good Fun! So the articles mentioned on Bloomberg had some merit? That Reno, Sioux Falls and Cheyenne are the new havens thanks to the laws in respective states? http://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2016-01-27/the-world-s-favorite-new-tax-haven-is-the-united-states A part of me thinks that the usual suspects (found in the article above) are simply removing some competition.

Trump's antics are simply Paleo-conservatism, which has a strong nationalistic bent. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paleoconservatism Sanders is self-explanatory.

Ooops http://www.ibtimes.com/panama-papers-obama-clinton-pushed-trade-deal-amid-warnings-it-would-make-money-2348076

You really think that applies to Trump? For the republicans? Of course.

Both Trump and Sanders are anti-established in there own political leanings and views, these views despite having populist support are dangerous and concerning as both candidates offer some ideas and solutions that have never been implemented before or just make no economic sense I wont go into everything I disagree with Trump about but lets take Sanders, he wants to break-up the banks and large global Investment banks based in the USA. This is a terrible idea and makes no economic sense, see the link below http://www.brookings.edu/blogs/up-front/posts/2016/04/04-four-questions-to-ask-before-breaking-up-banks-klein?utm_campaign=Brookings+Brief&utm_source=hs_email&utm_medium=email&utm_content=28095032&_hsenc=p2ANqtz-_eaSQSi7KF2_PHOJtPRh_mm68CJ3x6M1IEQ9QWWb83Fvo_c453O_hhUBJIWTl5CQk_LHX0RmsCj_b8ZkeHQzTjqPit8w&_hsmi=28095032 The economy, the banks or the political leanings of candidate X is not what this election is about, you are simply highlighting issues that are considered secondary for the ordinary citizen. No, this election is a cultural one; between the globalist harmonization of values (PC culture), people (diversity) and laws (TPP, TAPP) and nationalist one. The globalist answers to no one, but at least the nationalist one tries to be accountable for the constiuents of the nation, good or bad. Of course any multinational conglomerate is against this, especially banks, as they can be nationalized/let to fail if they mess up a nation's economy, instead of being bailed out.

I say it again, the only sane candidates are Sanders and Trump. While they greatly differ in political leanings, they are still putting what they think, the interests of the american people first. A win for either will be a middle finger to globalist power structure at large.

Losing with Cruz seems to be a viable solutions for Wisconsin republicans. Their democrats seems to have more sensibility though.

Uh, one thing. How much money is being funneled here by the ones named? How much money in lost taxes are each one guilty of?

//edit: i'm dumb.

That's what i am interested in as well. What political movements or characters will arise from this? What laws will be created? The current bet is that certain states in the US will be the new havens, which is not such a far strech in itself. After all, they do not have the best record of caring about "international law". I think that is the way it is turning, unless some major stakeholders in the EU power sphere is busted through this.
