also, as per "blowing up the system"...I am 100% for that. I don't even bother to register to vote because the system is so screwed up. But voting Trump isn't blowing up the system. He will be a terrible president. Voting Bernie Sanders or his Republican equivalent (no idea who that would be) would...

Is it safe?

Is what safe?

If you like socialism he is...

I love socialism

Figured you would.

There shouldn't be a federal minimum wage. The states should have their own. Most, if not all, already do.

If you like socialism he is...

Trump is for lowering middle class taxes and raising taxes on the wealthy. This is your defense? You said: Yeah... His policies aren't far right except for immigration. I gave you several examples where he has several far right policies... Also, his tax hike on the rich is a "one time" deal. Frankl...

Trump is for lowering middle class taxes and raising taxes on the wealthy.

Sure, this week. Give him a few months, he'll revert back to his previous position of lowering cap gains rate, and eliminating both inheritance and corporate taxes.

There shouldn't be an inheritance tax.

Call me crazy but 25% of <45% of voters is not a "large portion of Americans". . Right, his statement should be "American Right" rather than "American public" Yes Even then we are only talking about 3 in 10 GOP voters. What's worse, 30% of republicans voting for an immoral colossal ****** or 55% of...

I think he is hilarious. I love that people get offended by him. I thought his Rosie comment was golden. Going out on a limb, but I'd guess there aren't any regulars here who would be surprised by these remarks. :pop: Ok... Doesn't mean I would vote for him. I'd vote for Biden over trump. I just th...

I thought his Rosie comment was golden.

The fact that he continues to appeal to a large portion of the American public is disturbing. I could say the same thing about a candidate that thinks raising the minimum wage to $15/hour while simultaneously legalizing millions of illegal aliens is a good idea :pop: it's not about Trump's policies...

Or he admitted he is a girly man incapable of slamming a door...

Most would love to be free of government and all the oppressive things that goes with it. But the world is populated by people, and people are dadholes. So this is a fantasy world view. Government can and should be limited. It is finding that balance between the fantasy and reality that needs to be ...

It's going to probably fall further this week.

Again who was funding most of those advancements? Throughout history it has been mostly the church(which back then they were basically the state), and government. nobody, with all do respect to a man I've topped a few brews with, I can't believe that you're making this argument. Just because we got...

Again who was funding most of those advancements? Throughout history it has been mostly the church(which back then they were basically the state), and government. Sanders 2016! :lol: My gawd you're bad at this! :lol: I'll take this as a compliment, because if you consider what you put forth good, I...

All the technology that you have was derived basically thru the state. So you wouldn't even be able to have this conversation without the state. You said "limited state". And that's without picking apart your "argument" that the state is responsible for all that is good in the world, which your lib...

All the technology that you have was derived basically thru the state. So you wouldn't even be able to have this conversation without the state.

You have poor communication skills, as basically everyone in this thread has pointed out so far. I'll take my limited state/government view over statelessness any day. Mostly because one, limited state, actually works. While the other, statelessness, is the ravings of those that do not understand ho...

Haha I don't think Guiness is doing a good job of articulating his point

Do you have any idea how difficult a point this is to articulate, particularly in this setting?

It's difficult because you have nothing factual to back it up with.

You're all welcome for being the force which aligned you with nobody.

No I'm just tired of you not answering questions all the time, while thinking you are always right.

Give us a historical example of your paradise Guinness and stop dodging the question.

It's really only your opinion that you are more of an expert. Especially since each of your backgrounds would be fairly well versed in this area.
