What kind of Fucking Dream World do you live in ????

Law enforcement is ruthless on the poor, lenient on the rich. As well, laws—beginning with the U.S. Constitution—are designed to protect property owners, the same men who wrote the Constitution. It’s the poor who are scapegoated and underrepresented.

@Bobbyzen
You should take the case to court, not to the border.

@St-Sinner What case?

@Bobbyzen
Your complaints about the Law and Order or the laws if you have one. Else support law abiding and oppose illegal immigration.

@GEGR
It is called "not socialism"

@St-Sinner Law and order is the cry of the protected class. The great liberators of history disobeyed the laws to force the gatekeepers to relinquish their power to workers and the poor. Read A People’s History of the United States. Read the history of the Civil Rights Movement. Read anything except the tag lines in Fox News.

@Bobbyzen
That is socialist thinking leaning communist. We will not allow changing the country from capitalism to either.

@St-Sinner I have no time to argue with regressive thinkers who hide behind false arguments and labels. Bye for now.

@Bobbyzen
Sadly you are in a small minority in the U.S.

@David1955

The answer to the problem is "controlled capitalism", not entitlements to the poor or punishing the rich and success.

@St-Sinner Stop parroting the Asswipe Republiturds . We paid for Anything we get in this Country with our taxes . That is Not a God Damned " entitlement " . Fuck Asswipe thinking like this .

@Charlene
No, not a troll. Just another non-fanatic and sensible thinker

@David1955
That is only one view but not a popular view. Else we would have all you wish done already.

@ToolGuy Your opinion seems to show an extreme bias against the rich and is not grounded in reality. What you want is a punishment for being rich which will not happen because we are not a socialist country. America did not get to be the most powerful, advanced and rich nation with best amenities on the face of the Earth by being socialist. You have to look to Cuba for your dream come true.

@ToolGuy

You said... "Federal governments do not need taxes for revenue and nor do they need to borrow. But they should use taxes to maintain or restore a balance."

Does that mean redistribution of wealth? Taking from the rich and giving to the poor?

@ToolGuy How else do you restore a balance from the unequal taxes collected from both?

@ToolGuy
What you wrote is although fair and good ideas, that is mostly wishful thinking, not pragmatic. There are wonderful ideas but most have not broken out of books. I am for all sensible controls without keeping foot on anybody's throat or giving entitlements. Yours are far less pragmatic than what I am wishing:

1. Abolish white glove health insurance plan for all members of Congress and White House
2. No subsidized cafeteria or no subsidized anything in Congress
3. Keep pays and benefits of all Congress and White House members on hold during government shutdown, not just federal workers
4. Bring term limits to all members of Congress, maximum 2 terms
5. Take away the Senate and House chairs' ability to stop bills from coming to the floor. Every bill must be put to vote
6. Expand SCOTUS to introduce rotating appointments with no life long appointments
7. Ban all revolving door roles of lobbyist to Congress or vice versa for at least 10 years
8. No registered lobbyist can be appointed to a government office
9. Make it mandatory to make presidential candidates' tax returns public
10. Make nepotism laws more strict. President's family must be automatically disqualified to hold any office in the White House
11. Introduce stronger ethics laws
12. Make these bodies independent and make appointments of chairs non-political, every chair must serve two terms and cannot only be removed the act of Congress, not president - FCC, CDC, FAA, SEC
13. Make voter ID law mandatory nationally

These are just government and democracy reforms. I have not talked about gun control etc. yet

Abolish Citizens vs United is a also a great idea but I know that not even 4 will get done in the my and the next generations' life time. I also want heavy monitoring to prevent financial excesses by the rich and powerful.

@ToolGuy
Again either you are not reading right or I am not explaining enough. All I said about #2 is don't subsidize but you understood it as taking the whole cafeteria away? Can you please take the time to read?

@ToolGuy
I do not believe anything Bernie Sanders says. This man is not a democrat, knows himself that nothing he says can be accomplished, has not explained how the heck he plans to get all he says done without strong majorities the Senate and House, has not explained yet why the important infrastructure bill has not passed the Congress for 11 years, what have been his accomplishments on healthcare in his 45 years in Congress and most importantly why is he not running as an independent instead of stealing a platform that is not his?

He is good at hype, not at actions. He is a snake oil salesman. He is a hero of extreme left wingers, not mine.

@David1955
You are mixing apples and oranges.

@David1955
You talking the Right Wing Conspiracy... similar to what Hillary Clinton talked about when there were rumors of Bill Clinton's indiscretions with women outside and inside the White House? Similarly, you are sure that this conspiracy may not prove to be the truth, right?

@David1955
Ohhhh.... it was only the right wing conspiracy, not the truth. ... "I did not have an affair with that 'woman"

@David1955
We are all hypocrites but just don't know it or deny it. All progressives yelling for rights of illegal immigrants will never open their doors for one, nor would give personal time to help or nor ever stand up against a clear discrimination against an immigrant colleague at work. We say one thing but do another. It exists on both sides. No one can say... Holier than Thou
