***Official Political Discussion Thread***

[gry60]

I can't stand listening to GOP politicians anymore. Pence is lying his *** off and I don't know how journalists don't confront them more about the bold faced BS they spew day in, day out.

Can we get a real social contract up in this country? Germany has had a social safety net for more than a century, and it's an industrialist nation, ffs!

They're more focused on what they believe than what actually works.

Spying tech capabilities.
Apparently, they have the ability to turn any electronic device connected to the internet into listening/data collecting devices.

Lucious Fox quit his job over this in The Dark Knight.

Spicey is a buffoon. He straight up says "this is government, this is not"

That is an admissions that the Democrats are competent, that they actually govern, and the GOP does not.

Look at how every major country does health insurance, it is through regulation not letting the free market decide.

Yes, but I don't know how this is new. We've known this for awhile.

What was in the CIA leaks?

Spying tech capabilities.

With all the movies and media people take in that show these programs in action, it's surprising people don't know this stuff exists. "Always on" connections are the best thing to ever happen to spy agencies.

How can a Republican in this country have even the faintest trace of self-respect, intellectual amd moral self-worth?

It's embarrassing. Just throw away your dignity in the name of bigotry and classism?

It's disgusting man.
