Find out in this thread why a billionaire who made a career out of screwing over the little guy is now the only hope the little guy has of getting rid of the terrible establishment.

That kind of not giving a damn comes from being the leader of a place that's not a democracy where he can oppress and kill more or less anyone who bothers him. It's akin to admiring Pol Pot for his dogged determination.

Trudeau seems to have potential, maybe?

"I can't take anything off the table" doesn't make sense on the question of first use, anyway.

Generally, labor costs trump everything, as Trump will probably tell you.

That's something that shouldn't matter one iota.

Over-regulation is mostly a red herring in the off-shoring argument. It can be a factor (mostly in heavily polluting industries that no American really wants to live near), but for most businesses it pales in comparison to the fact that Americans are expensive to employ. And no amount of tax reduction and deregulation is going to make American labor rates comparable to those in Bangladesh. That's true for pretty much every job in developed countries today.Why some positions are off-shored while others are not is a more interesting discussion. Positions that require acces to local resources, local knowledge and first person interaction with other people are less likely to be off-shored. Also, job movement goes both ways. Often people will move to where their skillset will afford them better wages. I think Trump mentioned something about this phenomenon, at some point.

You mean the Austrian School that hates the Fed because muh praxeology or Monetarism which just wants to call the central bank something else? Ooh, I had no idea libertarian economics came from an outright rejection of empiricism. Wow.

Online polls? Really? They might as well include our little presidential election thread. Polish election last year. Official Polls: Komorowski 69% Duda 14% Internet Polls" Komorowski 32% Duda 47% You can check Wikipedia who is the new president. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polish_presidential_election,_2015#Second_round Not quite that, but ok.

There is no amount of tax and regulation reductions that is going to stop businesses from leaving the US. If there's a qualified workforce available somewhere else that does the work for a tenth of US wages, businesses are going to leave no matter what. I don't see what tax reductions can offset that. In any case, the US plummeted the world's economy through lack of regulation and oversight, so I don't see how dismantling the Fed is going to help overcome that, in any way. An overhaul of the Fed might be in order, as the financial markets continue to do the crap that got the giant recession started. Wholly removing the one financial federal regulatory body the US has seems insane.

Don't you support a guy who wants to kill the Fed?

Not to anyone who wouldn't vote for either of them. Maybe if they'd actually let a third party candidate into the debates, it'd have been exciting... If you had four bullets in a revolver instead of two, would your sense of excitement change during a game of Russian roulette?

You don't have time to do what you want. Stop procrastinating. Unsurprisingly, this is probably something my older self will want to tell my current self.

Yeah, obviously those things aren't going to happen. My point is more that there seems to be a non trivial percentage of Trump supporters who think Trump might do catastrophic things, and they're happy about it.

Waste of perfectly good octopus.

It also depends on what the pseudonym was. "ThanksObama2008" wouldn't indicate that he didn't know, for example. Edit: Interesting survey:

It runs fine on a Xiaomi Mipad. It just gets a bit hot.

Thread moved to Tech Support.

These sorts of riots existed before BLM and will actually continue to exist for a long time.

Wait, is that from an example image from a college course on false equivalence? Or are modern millionaire elites participating in some sort of violent riots that I don't know about?

I'm still trying to figure out how a candidate who wants to get rid of the fed is considered a viable candidate.

Like Perlmutter wasn't unlikable enough.
