Nailing Trump on his asinine comments to that disabled reporter.  Love.  It.

This has to be one of the best speeches of the whole convention.

It feels like Sanders' party, not Clinton.

I mean, we're kinda going to be in control of the party in the next 10 or 20 years...

Reading the end of his speech, I am wondering if Hillary is going to come out on stage with him.

That would be a huge, huge mistake.

Why?  I think that would be a great thing.  Most of the assholes have probably been booted out now.

If Hillary reneges on TPP, whether it's forced down our throats in the lame duck session or not, then her supporters really won't have an argument to keep Bernie supporters with her next election.  She's not doing it.

Once it is the law, it is the law Smiley You know, Tim Kaine has always been against the death penalty....

And, trust me, no actual American would ever directly observe the rollout Smiley

So maybe I'll be voting for Trump in November anyway.

You should - as should every other right wing Republican, like you.

Sounds good to me.

There are plenty of idiots with PhDs and plenty of smart people with only a high school education.

Anyway, seeing as this has become yet another ag-bragging-about-his-dick thread, I'll be off.  G'night, folks.

Trump 2016!

Quote from: Devout Centrist on July 25, 2016, 11:09:06 PM
A mixed economy is not socialism. Socialism is not communism. Capitalism is not corporatism.

Look, this is a pretty minor issue. Aspects of the State are funded by all in a system that has similarities to socialism. That does not make the State socialist if it has a publicly funded police force or educational system, to name a couple of examples. Socialism is the State controlling the means of production. Capitalism is private individuals controlling the means of production. A mixed economy has elements of both. End of discussion.

But even that's not correct.  Socialism is defined by democratic control of the economy or decision-making powers of industry belonging to workers.  Capitalism is defined by decisions being made by the owners of capital and factors of production.
