    so why isn't running loan forgiveness called policy? because the libs do it?
    Bribery is the act of giving or receiving something of value in exchange for some kind of influence or action in return, that the recipient would otherwise not alter.

    aka your so called "loan forgiveness"

    Tax policy does not compare to bribery, but I understand that's all you can do to rationalize things. That's why I call you out on your routine conflation.

    I don't recall, but the European democracies of the 19th century were mainly consitutional republics, n'est-ce pas?

    EVEN THOUGH IT APPEARS TO BE A DIRECT ANALOGY IT IS NOT BECAUSE I SAY IT IS NOT.

    i'm asking why tax policy and loan forgiveness are not both considered policies by you, and why one qualifies as bribery when the other doesn't?

    you dont consider tax cuts "something of value"?

    Chris runs away from the discussion, in his own thread, related to topics he brought up, again.

    Perhaps it were wise for him to stock to RTs and drive-bys, he seems to lack the focus for sustained conversation.

    Tax policy is something that's always on the table. Your so-called "loan forgiveness" is a radical idea and akin to bribery. If you don't see it that way, that's fine, but don't bull me. Or maybe you are that dumb?

    I don't live on this forum like you do. I don't hover over the keyboard waiting for a response. You are impatient and rude, and not worthy of serious discussion. If and when I decide to throw you a bone, you should feel thankful I acknowledged your trolling ass.

    so something is either a bribe or not a bribe based upon whether or not its been on the table for a set period of time? lol

    you already provided a definition of bribe in your previous post. do you not consider a tax cut as "something of value?"

    I don't consider a tax cut a bribe. I consider that standard policy for most aspiring politicians. Are you still confused?

    You missed the second part:

    "that the recipient would otherwise not alter."

    Tax cuts are always on the table, hence policy.

    Still confused?

    Could you show where Google is immune from class action lawsuits in the first place?

    so to be clear, do you consider the tax cut to be something of value?

    You're talking to a bot, tbh, you should expect answers to match that level of intellect...

    You've got it bad.

    I've been around awhile, the signs are unmistakable.

    I don't hover over the keyboard waiting for a response.
    It's an open discussion board, do you resent topically and thematically relevant replies? ITT so far, you gratuitously disdain them.

    You are impatient and rude, and not worthy of serious discussion. If and when I decide to throw you a bone, you should feel thankful I acknowledged your trolling ass.
    I can't believe you really care, but thanks for the detailed personal observation. It never ceases to crack me up how sensitive and fragile pretentious online bullies like you are.

    Free advice is usually worth the price of admission, your concern is touching!
