Intimidating public servants is bad. Especially when you are in the country illegally. Recording people in bathrooms is also illegal. Why are you in favor of illegal things?

"Embarassing questions" like "Why won't you let us bully you into doing what we want? Don't you understand that we live in a dictatorship?".

Probably largely so, but might depend on the degree

I personally still feel that most job knowledge the professionals are utilizing on a day to day basis is experience-based, not education-based. But of course one can’t be hired to gain that experience without the proper certification

It would be interesting to compare based on surveys or something which degrees prepare people best for their careers and which are the worst

Yea I agree with you

These degrees have been sold as The American Dream like somebody was buying a house. The problem is there are only so many houses available and the job market's been flooded with degrees, but no experience and there aren't enough jobs to go around. It's like 10 different real estate agents sellin the same house. Only one person actually gets to live there.

If there were enough jobs to fill all these degrees, folks would be makin the money to pay them off. Problem is low IQ folks are participating in a watered down education system that teaches kids how to be good at hammer and sickle and not good at workin with skill.

So now there is this big bubble of debt that hamburger flippers who got a degree in zoology can't pay for. They make good McDonald's though.

Ya, most def that is the case, and I can give an example from my field

One of the commonly-known ways of “upward movement” within the mental health field is to be hired by a medical hospital as a social worker, either doing assessments or discharge planning or something like that. The agency I work for has lost some good employees to hospitals because, while we are a great place to work for, a medical hospital will usually pay something like $15-20k/yr more per year WITH better benefits

But nowadays all hospital mental health positions require a clinical licensure. The way to get a clinical licensure is to have 3,200 hours of supervised COUNSELING experience in no less than 2 years. This means doing outpatient counseling, then having that combed over by a (usually power-tripping, based on stories I’ve heard…) supervisor the entire time

Why is this? Medical social workers don’t do counseling. Why do they need 3,200 hours of supervised counseling experience? Because other people applying have it. And because of liability, the hospital will always take someone who has the clinical licensure certification over someone who doesn’t. Doesn’t matter who is actually better at their job. All that matters is the hospitals had enough people applying who were over-certified (in a completely different line of work!), and so over-certified became the standard

They already deny smokers or alcoholics liver and lung transplants. They restrict medical procedures all the time unless people change their behavior.

If someone gets a transplant and they are unvaccinated, they could easily die from infection due to the immunosuppressing drugs they must take. Thats a wasted transplant if they do. Therefore, like always, transplants go to those most likely to benefit and sustain them.

The "cop who got hit with a fire extinguisher" was debunked like the day after. Plus, it's a cop, I guess you psychos only celebrate their deaths under certain political conditions. Quite manly.

No I do remember there was a protest though that was about 1/100th the size of the 100 days of protests you excuse.

[Jibartik]

lol only one person died as a direct result of anyone else was a cop shooting an unarmed woman so get over it.


25 people died at the BLM protests same year. (https://www.theguardian.com/world/2020/oct/31/americans-killed-protests-political-unrest-acled)

At least that is, if the same ratio of people died at the trump riots, one location, one night, then it's safe to say 5,000+ people died in the 100 days of riots that happened across the country (if were going to count medical complications that followed etc like you're counting now)

[Horza]

Pretending the insurrection never happened and the people smashing a cop's head in a door were just peaceful tourists isn't going to win back suburban moderates.

Words have meanings, it was not even remotely close to an "insurrection". What the taliban did in afghanistan when biden moronically pulled out suddenly was precisely the definition of an insurrection.

A bunch of larping dorks, often being *let in* to the capitol by the police, where congress resumed later that same day, is not even remotely close to satisfying that definition.

Were they stupid rubes on a mission doomed for failure? Yes. See how it's easy for me to condemn them, yet also understand what actually happened and not blow it up into something it wasn't for political maneuvering? You should be able to do the same thing for BLM rioters, which were far far more deadly to innocent people and property, but I absolutely guarantee you won't. The far left has a hard time winning hearts and minds because you are bereft of integrity or consistency.

Cops: Man, 90, Slugged Neighbor In "Get Off My Lawn" Dispute (https://www.thesmokinggun.com/buster/battery/get-off-my-lawn-arrest-275936)

When police later arrived at Conrad’s residence--a $770,000, 3288-square-foot home in the gated RedTail Country Club Community--he was resting and did not want to be disturbed, his 89-year-old wife told deputies.

After his spouse convinced him to speak with cops, Conrad recalled telling the gardener to get off his lawn (pictured below). He claimed that Henson “told him to punch him in the face and at that time he punched him twice on the left side of his face.” Deputies then asked Conrad “if someone was to ask him to shoot them would he do it?” The retiree replied, “Then I would have shot him.”

Conrad, cops noted, “advised he did nothing wrong because the victim asked him to punch him in the face.”

When cops tried to explain that he had committed a battery, Conrad told them to “Get the fuck out of my house” and began to walk away. As deputies sought to take Conrad into custody, he allegedly balled up his fist and refused to place his hands behind his back. After being handcuffed, Conrad was booked into the county jail for battery and resisting police, both misdemeanors.

I personally feel a lot safer.

We all know that gardener was Mexican.

The rich spend far more money than lower and middle class people, it's just a smaller percentage of their net worth.

"4.1. Middle-income households contribute the most to consumption
Middle-income households contribute the most to the aggregate consumption in the economy. With almost two-thirds of total consumption, middle-income households are the income group that accounts for by far the highest share of consumption, ranging from 50% or below in the United States, Southern European and Latin American countries to 70% or above in Nordic countries and Slovakia. Besides its sheer size, the middle-income class has, in comparison to other income classes, both the resources and the propensity to consume. Middle incomes are the only income class whose share of spending is greater than both its share of income and its share of the population

And thats just the middle class not even combined with the lower class.

The rich are carrying this country’s government on their backs in terms of tax revenue

“Only 1.4% of the $1.45 trillion in taxes paid in 2017 was contributed by taxpayers earning less than $30,000, according to the Pew Research Center.4

It should also be noted that many taxpayers in this income group received income from the government in the form of those refundable tax credits—the IRS paid out about $62 million in earned income tax credits in 2020. The average payment to qualifying taxpayers was $2,461.6”

“A study by the Tax Foundation breaks down taxpayers into just two groups: the top 50% of earners and the bottom 50%. The lower half included taxpayers with AGIs of $41,740 or less in 2017. The Tax Foundation found that this lower 50% demographic contributed just 3% of taxes paid in 2017.1

The 2018 edition of the same study indicated that the bottom half of taxpayers paid an effective tax rate of 3.7%. Those with AGIs falling between $50,000 and $100,000, which could be considered middle income, paid an effective rate of 9.25%. AGIs of $139,713 to $197,651 paid an average effective rate of 14%.7”

“The Tax Foundation’s study concluded that 96.9% of all 2017 income taxes were paid by the higher-earning 50% of taxpayers”

“ The Pew Research Center study indicates that taxpayers earning between $200,000 and $500,000 annually paid an effective tax rate of 19.4% in 2015. Their income taxes represented 20.6% of the total taken in by the IRS. This decreased to 17.9% of the total taxes paid at an effective tax rate of 26.8% for those with incomes between $500,000 and $2 million”

What the hell are you talking about? People have every right to show up to *public* school board meetings, who they directly fund through tax dollars, and express their discontent with patently racist and divisive ideas being pumped into the impressionable brains of 8 year olds. Yes, call me crazy but I think that's bad.

Anyone making death threats to anyone else I condemn fully. But you're just conflating that with other people, who are *not* making death threats, and simply have completely reasonable grievances.

Also, going to talk to people in jail is not the same as supporting them. It's going to talk to them, to refine what the actual truth is. I know rachael maddow thinks they are super-mega-nazis, but maybe they aren't? Maybe we should care about what is true, and not just what feels good or confirms our political priors?

I fully condemn anyone making any type of threat to any public official. Like for example the illegal immigrant who harassed Sinema while she was trying to take a shit.

Parents being concerned that their children are being indoctrinated with ideological, racist and obviously retrograde ideas, during their most formative years of life, I fully support.

You are being obtuse on purpose. I've already said that I condemn threats. You are pretending anyone who shows up somewhat angry at a school board meeting is threatening people, which is false.

[JurisDictum]

The wealthy decide what their own tax rate will be, largely. If a wealthy person is getting fucked by taxes -- its because another wealthy person put a disproportionate amount of the burden on them.

Normal people's preference has no proven influence whatsoever on policy outcomes like the tax rate. This is a fact.

https://www.cambridge.org/core/journals/perspectives-on-politics/article/testing-theories-of-american-politics-elites-interest-groups-and-average-citizens/62327F513959D0A304D4893B382B992B

Multivariate analysis indicates that economic elites and organized groups representing business interests have substantial independent impacts on U.S. government policy, while average citizens and mass-based interest groups have little or no independent influence. The results provide substantial support for theories of Economic-Elite Domination and for theories of Biased Pluralism, but not for theories of Majoritarian Electoral Democracy or Majoritarian Pluralism.

Taxes are low in the United States. Welfare is not generious by any stretch. Passive investiment income gets preferential treatment. Employees can be fired at will for almost any reason.

This is where making things better for the well off at the expense of everyone else has led us. Right here. Socialism didn't lead anyone here. FDR and the New Deal didn't. This wasn't the fault of all Lydon Johnson's Great Society Programs. This is the result of Reagan ending all those programs and the entire New Deal era. It's the result privatization, limited government, lower taxes and deregulation.

And people keep thinking something different is going to happen when we go down that path.

Mexico isn't sending their best? They are sending rapists? That is true. It turns out, people who cross the border illegally are very often hiding something, because you can actually enter the US *legally*. Not every illegal immigrant is a rapist, most aren't. He also didn't say that though.

They *are* very often child sex traffickers and cartel members, this is simply factual.

"You were wrong in this example here Ben I found from 6 years ago. Is that correct Ben? Is it correct that you were wrong?" What a stupid fucking interview. The entire thing is a setup.

What about all the good things Shapiro has done? Why do you always got to focus on the negative man.

[unsunghero]

Did you not watch the press coverage while it was happening? Any of it? Or read a newspaper?

And the House Minority Leader's vocal condemnation and then backpedaling when he saw how well treason polls with the idiots does count as support.

No sorry I don’t watch sponsored propaganda that you call news

Feel free to link the sources showing Republican politicians supporting the Jan 6 riot though. I love me some propaganda to read

Hmm doing “anything” about it or doing Congress’ plan to do about it?

Because it seemed the plan became to waste millions of dollars turning the capital into a miniature version of the de-militarized zone between north and South Korea to prevent, yknow, all those follow-up attacks

Had that same thing been done in the areas where BLM had rioted, it would have prevented more actual crime, but been seen as racist as hell. So it wasn’t done

I would like to hear what Congress’ proposed response was before I judge someone declining to support that response

Imagine thinking appealing to Americans' sense of decency is a path to the White House, five years after they elected serial rapist Donald Trump.

[unsunghero]

“But overall, the media coverage of Reade's allegations has been noticeably muted compared to its handling of claims against other high-profile political figures, from Brett Kavanaugh to Donald Trump. Even former Minnesota Sen. Al Franken, who succumbed to pressure to resign in 2018 for multiple allegations of groping women, got exponentially more media attention”

Southern states also have some of the largest elderly populations, who are overwhelmingly the most vulnerable demographic in terms of covid deaths. So that maps doesn't indicate what you think it does, at all.

Also, at worst, 100 deaths per 100,000 is only a .1% death rate. Among the most vulnerable demographics. Many contagious diseases carry a higher death rate that we do nothing about. So lockdown measures that destroy local economies, still, make no sense.

Yes obviously of course she thought and spoke positively about him in the years before, it’s why she chose to work for him

Using the fact that someone might have felt positively about someone before and even after they were sexually assaulted as some sort of evidence that the assault didn’t occur shows someone doesn’t understand human behavior and reaction to trauma at all

“Most victims/survivors feel guilty and ashamed about the assault. Survivors often question that they somehow may have “provoked” or “asked for it”, that they shouldn’t have trusted the assailant, or that they should have somehow prevented the assault. Some of these feelings are the result of society’s myths about sexual assault and sexuality. Survivors will often start to doubt their ability to make good judgments or trust their own instincts. Sometimes blaming themselves helps survivors to feel less helpless”

“ Some victims/survivors express concern about what will happen to the assailant if the attack is reported or prosecuted. Others express a concern that an assailant is sick or ill and needs psychiatric care more than prison. It is human to show concern for others, especially those who are troubled, destructive, and confused. Some of these attitudes may be the result of the survivors’ effort to understand what happened, particularly if there was a previous relationship. These attitudes might also be the result of the survivors blaming themselves for the assault. If survivors feel sorry for the assailant, they might find it difficult to express their anger and indignation for what they suffered”

1. Many siblings have an inherent love for their parent regardless it is called parent sibling relationship

Example: Siblings must make the same reappraisal of each other as adults, as parents have to with their adult children. ... Those who are successful can often move away from the “older-younger” sibling conflicts of childhood, toward a more equal relationship between two adults.

At least part of this is due to supply chain issues. We are actually in a bit of shipping crisis -- but the elites think its too boring and technical of a story for most people.

Rent is up 3.2%. Rent is expensive but this is hardly something new caused by the pandemic or the response. I'm not going to bother getting numbers on college, because its the same story.

Energy is clearly the big source of recent inflation.
New Quinnipac poll out today. (https://poll.qu.edu/poll-release?releaseid=3824) Biden is sitting at a 38% approval rating, meaning he is currently less approved of by people in the US than Trump's rating over his term. It doesn't look like the American public is buying what what Juris and the Fed are putting down with the whole "normal inflation" and CPI numbers etc.

Roughly one-quarter of Americans (29 percent) describe the economy as excellent (2 percent) or good (27 percent), while 69 percent describe it as not so good (35 percent) or poor (34 percent).

Quick reminder that we are at all time highs in the stock market and all time highs in property values yet 70% of the public is aware that the economy is not in great shape. I'm impressed with the general public's awareness of the federal reserve and current administration's manipulative bullshit, or maybe I should be unimpressed with their inability to hide it better. Should only get worse from here as I'm pretty sure I read Biden came out in support of Fed Chair Powell today and the hawk's are dropping like flies due to insider trading. EDIT: I should say insider trading reports, they all do insider trading...

Glad rent is up 3.2% Juris. You should tell that to the real people who's rents are skyrocketing right now.

Has anyone else seen as much increase in rent this upcoming year?! Mine is going up from $1500 to around $1900. (https://www.reddit.com/r/vegas/comments/q2a5em/rent_inflation/)

Black americans are the most vaccine hesitant demographic, who are also overwhelmingly democrat voters. So that map does not at all demonstrate that southern states, therefor red states, are more vaccine hesitant. Southern states also have some of the largest elderly populations, who are overwhelmingly the most vulnerable demographic in terms of covid deaths. So that maps doesn't indicate what you think it does, at all.

Also, at worst, 100 deaths per 100,000 is only a .1% death rate. Among the most vulnerable demographics. Many contagious diseases carry a higher death rate that we do nothing about. So lockdown measures that destroy local economies, still, make no sense.

TLDR: You're a fear mongering paranoid lunatic

I get it... You don't trust what they are trying to inject the population with.
You are looking for answers. You are looking for all the data you can find and all the evidence that shows that vaccines are more deadlier than the virus.

Because right now, if I just tell you what I think that there's a deadly coronavirus and that vaccines are out and they help a lot, maybe not as quite as much as we thought they did, especially with a variant now; every single bit of data fits that. Exactly. With old or different racial groups

But for me to believe your story, I have to believe in manipulated data. I have to look at poor quality studies that aren't peer reviewed. And I have to believe in a global giant conspiracy that spans a multitude of counties and institutions.

Do you see I have to believe in so much more stuff I don't have evidence for your viewpoint than for mine.

It is sad the vaccine has become politicized.

FoxNews, Conservative Radio show hosts and outside country influence on social media is doing a good job on misinformation campaigns.

Just say that women should not be given a choice.

They shouldnt be allowed to be in charge of their own bodies.

Say you want to violate their RIGHTS.

Then, lets ban the 2nd amendment because im tired of republicans and their post-birth abortions they keep committing. Over a million americans are dead from gun violence thanks to republicans sucking that gun company dick. You're not even allowed to sue them, talk about protected status.

Weird how men have all these strong opinions on it. I say leave the women alone, let them decide. Its not up to you.

The constitution is sacred, unless you want to ratify it to hurt black people, women, or other minorities you feel are threatening your place in society.

FoxNews, Conservative Radio show hosts and outside country influence on social media is doing a good job on misinformation campaigns.

The thing with social media and 24-hour news channels is they program that stuff so that you only follow what you want to hear and it essentially becomes an echo chamber. Democrats aren't following conservative media. Yet to hit 70% there are a significant amount of democrats that think the government is doing a poor job on the economy right now. I'm also guessing democrat constituents may not be as in favor of some of these spending bills that they are trying to pass in Congress right now. Could be a blood bath come midterms.

[Gravydoo II]

I love when they claim people that are dead. Like saying stuff like "steven hawking was a christian, for sure. Who do you think gave him all those ideas? god told him in his prayers"

Or they do he opposite and damn the dead to hell because they dont agree with them on some subject. "They should face an ETERNITY of torture! They disagreed with me!" lol

That'd be a noper.

70%+ support the upcoming bills. Only half of republicans disagreed with it.

So, thats a lot of people.

Sure beat the 8 trillion the republicans spent then ran away from in the past 4 years.

The funny thing is, we had the money already, but republicans gave it away to their friends and donors with tax breaks.

I guess thats a stretch to 70% of people think the economy is in bad shape but would also not want to spend another couple trillion on social policies.

Breaking news: Horza has hot takes from 2004

Also, once again you don't have to be christian to oppose abortion. I'm an atheist and I oppose it for the same reason I oppose the murder of innocents, or even the needless abuse of animals. Which we have laws against.

[Ooloo]

Haha what is gravy talking about? 70% support the "upcoming bills (plural)"? I have a feeling each, individual bill, might have differing levels of support. Also if 70% of congress supported them they would have just passed already. That's well over a supermajority, which is required to defeat a filibuster. Where are you getting your coolaid exactly?

That is a terrible analogy.
1. Many siblings have an inherent love for their parent regardless it is called parent sibling relationship

Example: Siblings must make the same reappraisal of each other as adults, as parents have to with their adult children. ... Those who are successful can often move away from the “older-younger” sibling conflicts of childhood, toward a more equal relationship between two adults.

2. Tara Reide worked for Biden reportedly happily and was not a sibling.
But Tara Reide has numerous issues about her divorce, past friends, bankruptcy, manipulation and more out lined here: https://www.politico.com/news/2020/05/15/tara-reade-left-trail-of-aggrieved-acquaintances-260771

You do realize people get raped by their ex’s or people they used to date, or sometimes even by their own husbands, and still have some lingering feelings for them sometimes?

Here, to show how common an idea this is, it was actually shown in a movie. Here’s a scene from Watchmen:

What the holy fuck does this have to do with anything?

Are you saying if someone has had a divorce, or past bankruptcy issues, that they can’t be sexually assaulted?

What a stupid argument. She and her mom had this plan to ruin Biden’s future presidency so they called into 60 minutes in 1993 to plant the seeds of their fake story?

Wow glad the champions of democrat media discredited her and buried the story to save the day

The only "proof" of that claim is post-facto from Tara herself. Notice the woman didn't mention her name on the call.

Have some standards, "conservative".

The way Trump tried to push for $2000 checks before he left office and how Biden is pushing for more checks through his social policy I don't think the US is really that far off from a soda in the drinking fountain elementary school style election.

Oh I’m sorry you’re right. It was just a woman who happened to live in the exact same area as her mom lived calling the exact same time after it happened

“It was able to determine, though, that the caller was identified as a woman from San Luis Obispo, California, where Reade’s mother was then living”

Obviously pure conspiracy theory. We’re talking Alex Jones level shit

Do you guys think the country is headed in the right direction?

Yes or no?

How about we base what people want on these polls (not the ones where people say what they want). I mean not us, the media of course. Then after the media explains to us what people want we can argue about it.
