PK htiw klaw eriF Posted March 20, 2020 Share Posted March 20, 2020 So Barr dumped stock before the panic and market dive, but so did a senator from Georgia named Kelly Loeffler. What's more, she is married to the chairman of the New York Stock Exchange and its parent company, and she put her money into a teleconferencing company. Maybe I'm just a loony radical, but something about this nexus of power seems to be a little ****ed to me. 1 hour ago, Guard Dog said: But you left all the DJ Bobo stuff!

ComradeYellow Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 As of right now, the only thing stopping Trump from re-election is total economic meltdown, which is possible, but I wouldn't bet on it. I will give him credit for having the political instincts and flexibility to institute programs that help the little guy to save his ass in this case, as his approval rating seems to be climbing now. This hawkish attiutde towards China among Republicans is very alarming though. It's just as bad as Russiagate Liberals. Which is our 2 party corporate driven imperialist state in a nutshell.

Volourn Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 (edited) China deserves all the **** they get. They are the only country I know off who PUNISHED a doctor because he dared warn people about the virus. He subsequently got the virus, and died. China is an evil dictatorship that murders and terrorizies its own people for giggles. P.S. Russia is just as bad.

ComradeYellow Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 You may not like them because -reasons- but it's imperative we all get along and respect our differences. Yes, western countries don't like authoritarian governments, but our differences can compliment each other rather antagonize each other. Besides, last I checked, it's not China with 200+ military bases across the globe trying to conquer and bomb everything, that's the U.S.. Look at it this way: China built a wall thousands of years ago. Not to invade, but to prevent being invaded. That's the Chinese psyche in a nutshell.

DOJ seeks new emergency powers amid coronavirus pandemic it is ok to be afraid o' covid-19. it is stoopid to do as is ron paul and minimize the dangers o' covid-19. however, you may never get back what you sacrifice today to feel a bit more safe.

Volourn Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 Freedom. Freedom is good. And, no, China's economy is not 'unshaken'. Stop beliving China's lies. The fact you support the ONLY country (that I know of)that PUNISHED a doctor for daring to speak about COVID and then he subsequently 'caught it and died' says a lot about you. Stop defending China. They are evil and theya re the ones who caused this mess to begin with. Other gov't are now dealing with **** because of China. PERIOD. 2 DWARVES IN PROJECT ETERNITY = VOLOURN HAS PLEDGED $250.

Because, you know. Karma. Karma, according to its religious followers, only punishes the wicked and rewards the good. L0LZ well, the karma part for ron might be misplaced, but it is worth noting how rand were one o' only two senators who voted against the recent coronavirus relief bill, and rand forced a vote on a last minute amendment complete unrelated to coronavirus which delayed the bill. so argue karma for rand, while unnecessary in our mind, avoids your criticisms. might wanna call rand diagnosis irony, but is actually coincidence. fact some might consider it to be justice as well as coincidence kinda puts it square in karma territory, no? also, like it or not, am thinking if karma is a thing it would prove how god/the universe has craptacular aim. far too often the villains go unscathed while those 'round 'em is the people getting smote. perhaps there is karma in the universe, but as often as not it is the innocents vol identifies who is actual targeted by the wrath o' the universe. but again, is a stretch to put rand in same category with abused children and your grandma... though for all you know the grandma is a closeted serial killer and the abused child shoves lit firecrackers up squirrel butts for fun. is how the karma folks look at such inequities, no? aside, so is clear, am not personal wishing a severe respiratory illness on anybody, not even our worstest enemies. one thing being overlooked in all this is what a terrible way it is to die, gasping and unable to to breathe despite struggling to do so. #$%& karma if it uses covid-19 to punish. in any event, as kinda a weekend existentialist, is few things we believe in absolutely. however, we got zero doubts 'bout the following: Life is not Fair. deal with it.
