You didnt use to like bernie I thought? called his free college stuff santa clause bull iirc. Republicans might have the senate for a long time so maybe it wont matter as maybe he wont be able to do that stuff security
Bernie can promise the moon like Trump and congress would never agree to any of his policies.

Oh yeah ok nvm didnt see this
Anecdotes are just that, anecdotes. I'm sure the employees of Sears and Toys R Us that went bankrupt have other anecdotes to tell.
I don't think I said anything improper, tbh, do you think the economic status quo has changed at all with this or the previous administration?
His free college talk is Santa Claus bull unless he wants to make it hard to get into college like they do in Germany. But he'd never get it passed anyways so it doesn't matter. I think he'd drive turnout.
Well... I'm calling it a night. What a disaster in the Senate but the only thing that really matters given that we knew GOP would control the Senate is the House flips and that is a game changer.... Let the mayhem begin!![]()
Not sure Oprah wants to air her dirty laundry before the world. Not that she's not already a target, but does she have entire legal firms actively digging into her past all across the world, into her finances, etc...?
Milwaukee County has 45,000 absentee ballots left uncounted that could help Evers over Walker.
There's mixed systems too. Lots of countries don't regulate all prices, and if you have the money and want to pay for better/concierge service, you can. Plenty of options to explore. In the meantime, we already have socialized medicine (we already spend more per capita that countries with full blown socialized healthcare), it's just extremely inefficient and we overpay terribly.
That's how it should be, honestly. And there shouldn't be elective classes like arts and humanities beyond sop re level in college. That just increases unemployment and underemployment big time.
Even if he does think it has, isn't that just another anecdote?
What do the experts think?
Sears and Toys R Us went out of business because they didn't embrace the digital revolution like Walmart and others did.
The senate mattered. Now it's really hard to see the Democrats able to take it in 2020, especially with Doug Jones up for re-election then. Tester has to hold on and Rosen taking Nevada is a must; especially since Sinema taking Arizona looks doubtful now. Even if the Democrats win the presidency in 2020 it's hard to see them being able to nominate any supreme court justices.
Here is where we get into the equivalences game, and why I mention Trump is a weak candidate. Trump dispelled the myth you need to show your finances to win, and that's an area he can't bait other candidates. Trump also has shown your popularity can give you a pass for a lot of past transgressions.
A politico couldn't get away with it, but a media figure probably can.
Doubtful. Fox just explained the math. Too many rural areas and precincts left. Madison completely done.
Of the country?
yes.
The spending is outrageous. Republicans turned to Democrats. If the attempted offset will be SS, Medicare....
yes.
Well, I'd like him to present his theory of economic readjustment of the status quo due to the recent economic policies. We'll see what his opinion is.
And you're the Expert, last I checked...![]()
2022 is a good bet for the Dems to take back the Senate, particularly if Trump wins re-election and some hits the fan (recession? popped bubble?)
Pat Toomey won't win again... Portman, Johnson, and the Zona seat will be barn burners, which is bad for the GOP.
How many outstanding votes are left in the rural districts?
It's not about whether or not she can get away with it, but whether or not she wants her life to change that much. Donald was already a pariah.
What I mean is, do you think the poorer are getting richer and the richer are getting poorer? ie: do you feel there's an economic paradigm change? I don't see it.
Republicans have been putting spending on the government credit card since the Reagan days... I mean, we can go through Medicare Part D, etc. There's nothing new there.
I'm retired.![]()
Republicans would commit suicide by cutting SS or Medicare, and cutting military spending would be a toughie as well... maybe better than the first two, though. Medicaid can go.
If the offset is what I stated, absolutely.
somebody is going to pay this debt.
Sears tried, but were late to the game. They also got obliterated by hedge funds... but, regardless of reasons, you can always find an anecdote that suits a narrative, that's why generalizing that is useless.
