The All Things Political Topic - A politician needs the ability to foretell what is going to happen tomorrow, next week, next month, and next year. And to have the ability afterwards to explain why it didn’t happen
Nah, if Obamacare taught us something, its that we can ram anything through the government, no matter the opposition, we just have to find the will. I for one wont stop until me and mine have free healthcare and a government direct deposit every month.

We need to tax the fatcats into the ground and redistribute the booty in the form of UBI.

Ukraine Conflict - "History never looks like history when you are living through it."
No not at all, we cant even rocket anymore: Reentry Vehicle Test For America's New ICBM Failed Just After Launch (thedrive.com) I have interest in all countries advanced weapons systems but shooting at air is easy and Id just like to see unvarnished performance tests between these systems and targets that have the capabilities to defend themselves.

Ukraine Conflict - "History never looks like history when you are living through it."
Point taken. "You can never hold ground without something on the ground to hold it." <-- Thats a good point so I guess it depends on the definition of "win". Id really love to see real world engagements using T1 systems. C'mon Syria, fire off a salvo of S-400 at those F-35's taking c0ckpit selfies of downtown Damascus. Lets go Russin, let rip a Kh-47M2 at a moving or ABM defended target. China, heard you got a sweet DF-17, lets see if it can hit a target in ABM defended Guam instead of an outline of an aircraft carrier in the Gobi desert. Of course in these examples nobody is injured or killed, just saying.

EDIT: Ninja'd! @Sarex In my experience, most Japanese are strongly pacifist. And the assassin had to use a home made double barrel zip gun!

Well I guess, if you squint real hard, Turkey is compromising the future security of the EU by blocking new members. Ah who am I kidding, after viewing the Russian performance of their personnel and equipment they are clearly a 2nd-3rd tier military and the EU would smack them up good. Theyre lucky they have nukes. China is the only legitimate threat to the US and Im not 100% convinced they arent a paper tiger too.

Fireworks noise doesnt have any affect on my wife, I, or the cats. We sleep like the dead. Which is a good thing for us because my down-the-street-and-around-the-corner neighbor must get his fireworks from the nearest warzone.
