Taxation is theft.
Marine comments on Jul 5, 2018:
It is a great idea but how do you pay for everything you get from a government without taxes? I could not build roads hospitals etc by myself and you don't get people to give up money for something until they need it and that might be to late. I just cannot understand the position of the anarchist as it seems ridiculas.
Did you know that the meat industry uses 70 % of the antibiotics used in the USA?
Marine comments on Jul 5, 2018:
The FDA states that thew use of these antibiotics is one of the causes that drug resistant bacteria. Colistin a last of the line of defense antibiotic is now being resisted by an e coli found in pigs. The drug companies do not wish to invest in new antibiotics because they become useless to quickly because of the overuse and this reduces profit from the drug.

Marine comments on Jul 5, 2018:
As the profits and pay increases for the wealthy Americans increase they are leaving the rest of Americans behind with below average incomes that once were protected by unions. Today there isn't anyone to protect the wage earner as corporations said take what we give you or we will move overseas. Many have done just that and the tariff situation will make this even worse because corporations are not going to let profits go down the drain. Carrier, Harley are already moving and they will be followed soon by others.Trump instead of going about trade discussions in a diplomatic way is trying to bully the world to get his demands and it is stupid.

Marine comments on Jul 5, 2018:
Why isn't the Budget Department supervising the money being spent on materials like cannons,trucks,tents etc that the military does not want but that come from a senator or representative district. Why isn't surplus items being used by our Fima which deals with disasters instead of rotting in storage costing millions for nothing.Did you know the Pentagon operates 170 golf courses world wide. This seems like a likely place to cut the military budget to start.
Why have people become so gullible to accept lies as facts?
Marine comments on Jul 5, 2018:
The people of today are accepting lies as facts to their own detriment. This is true of many trumpie followers and also of many in the democratic party. We have lost the power of the press who once stood for the people in fact checking the policies presented to the people. They once called it muckraking but it did in many cases protect he people.It seems that today we have nice looking reporters who just repeat the same thing over and over to the point it becomes fact. Where have the investigative reporters gone? Does the news media no longer have any desire to protect the people.It seems all they report are the easy to get stories about shootings, accidents fires and other disasters and repeat the same boring stories of trumpie using talking heads until one becomes sick. Please press become the protectors of the people like you once were. Stop acting like the big corporations you have become.

100 CEO's have amassed more retirement benefits than 41% of all Americans.
Marine comments on Jul 4, 2018:
Trumpie is busy trying to reduce Social Security and health care for the masses while his friends the billionaries are rolling in money they do not deserve. Their greed will affect so many living from day to day and the middle class that have not seen their pay increase as the profits from the companies have risen. The republicans have removed the unions that were the only protection the workers really had.
Did you know that climate change will make 200,000,000 people refugees in the coming decades.
Marine comments on Jul 4, 2018:
At this time there needs to action taken by every country to reduce the CO2 they are producing along with Methane. As the populations grows it is putting severe stress on food production, ,water ,fuel places for these people just to live. Many of these people live in shacks now and this will not be permitted in western countries. Look at Brazil and this could come to all western countries. There isn't any planning or action being taken to deal with this problem. The USA territories that are islands may need to be evacuated because of rising water.These are US citizens . Where will we place them? This administration and it's denial of climate change is criminal. More states should follow CA policies and pretend that the trumpie adm does not exist.
Did you know that 2/3 of USA companies pay no income taxes yet were given additional tax breaks.
Marine comments on Jul 4, 2018:
Why do we need to reduce the tax rate on these companies when we should be looking at why these companies are not paying any taxes but reap the benefits of those of us who do pay. Corporations that once thought a profit of 10% was great are now taking profits as high as 50% and they are getting tax breaks on top of it! Just look at banks charging 25 to 30% on charges made.This was once looked upon as a crime. Where is the protection that the politicians were to provide? trumpie group just relaxed the regulations even more.

Why have I been critized for wanting crime stopped?
Marine comments on Jul 4, 2018:
I recently asked that criminal gangs be attacked like the mafia gangs were in the 30's and was surprised to find so many people supporting gang groups stating that you just cannot arrest people because they are in a group. I never stated that. I speak of only criminal groups where the members take part in criminal activities. WN MS13 and other known groups still seem to operate with the FBI,Treasury,state and local police knowing about the activities of these gangs. They have been around and dealing far to long and should be a priority of law enforcement.

The fact that money talks is a basic premise that carries a lot of weight and is a very difficult one to get around. People have been trying since the beginning of commerce. There have been revolts to correct the situation which lasts until a new elite rises from the ashes and history again repeats itself. My concern is where in the cycle are we today. It would appear we are close to the revolt.

Marine comments on Jul 2, 2018:
I just had a discussion with a republican person who claimed what we are experiencing is nothing more than normal climate swing. He did not believe CO2 had anything to do with the climate and said the 98% of the scientists who claimed it did was just a ruse to use solar cells and wind mills which he stated were to expensive and not efficient enough to replace oil and gas. During the conversation I also found out he opposed research on stem cells, DNA modification, in vitro medication and anything science related. At this point he informed me his church opposed all these things because they aimed at replacing god as the most important aspect of life.If we have a wide population that believes in this manner we are doomed. What is being taught in so many schools is lacking science education. This affects how they believe.

Marine comments on Jul 2, 2018:
It is my opinion that working under these conditions requires the company to provide proper rest periods, water and even coffee during the winter to these workers. The weather being part of the job should require the company to do the right thing by these workers. I am aware that this is not the case since many unions have been driven out of business. Unions had their bad cases but they also provided the eight hour day, vacations, overtime pay , 5 day work week, health ins. disability coverage and worker safety rules. These are being eliminated without the unions!

Prisons for profit,3 strikes law,weed, are all abused to place people in prison or jail. Weed should be made legal federally and those imprisoned because of it released. These parents where the wage earner(?) is imprisoned should be under some type of review so the children do not follow in the imprisoned footsteps. Not enough is being done to prevent these gangs from developing.

Marine comments on Jul 2, 2018:
I feel for those who brave the weather to do their jobs. Heat and cold can make working outside hell. I have been there and always appreciated that I worked in an office where I controlled the temp. I also admire those who do the repetitive jobs. When i was in high school we went on a field trip to a Firestone factory where I witnessed a man placing tire beads on a machine. He did 100 per hour for eight hours a day. I asked him how long he had been doing this job and he replied 35 years. I immediately said to myself you are going to college. That led to a family argument because my dad could make me a job at the factory he worked at. I won
