Ok, but when they raise their prices due to taxes other companies that are more efficient can compete so your alleged point is moot. The real issue with our tax system was abandoning the progressive tax system that made us financially strong from 1938 until 1980 when Reagan screwed it all up. Corporations generally aren’t National entities making their tax status hard to pin down. Like Harley Davidson, not an American company. We would be better served if we forced companies to be part of the nation in order to get them to pay their taxes.

Compared to Trump Biden is super over qualified for office. But you think you found a flaw and you want to exploit it for your team. Kamala needs a lot more information on tax laws. Her inability to respond to the misinformation from Pence on the subject is ample evidence of that. Yet, she is still worth an army of Pence's when you consider her strengths in justice and law enforcement. I'm not going to play this game, your poll is invalid.

It only becomes hard when you encounter less informed people that claim to know all the answers only proving themselves to know way less than any person that graduated from any U.S. public high school, if they retain any knowledge at all. Christianity claims to have all the answers, which is the best proof that they have none at all. BTW screw the Screwtape letters and the moron that wrote them.

The Decline of Religion Continues – Nones Gain 3 Percent in One Year – Religion in Public

Willow_Wisp comments on Oct 9, 2020:

Perhaps if enough people get free of religion and conservatism we can start reinvesting in the education of our people. Education has become so expensive in order to line the pockets of the rich. This is encouraged by religion because they hate science, in particular biology, specifically evolution. In the good old days American greatness was due to our public education. Now the horrible status of America is due to our abysmal public education. America will not be great again before college education is free for anyone able to keep up with the curriculum. How many talented scientist, doctors, engineers, and even artist have lived compromised diminished lives because they couldn't afford to get the education they needed to flourish, while morons like Trump just shed money like COVID-19 virus and hold qualifications far far beyond their native capabilities. I despise our educational gate keeping and I blame all of it on Christianity and it's twin brother ignorance.

Has anyone here looked st the Libertarian and Green party candidates?

Willow_Wisp comments on Oct 9, 2020:

No, not even a little. That would be stupid. Libertarians are just frustrated Conservatives: You can do anything you like, drugs, have sex that Christians don't approve of, anything at all, just go to a flat tax so the wealthy can keep getting richer. Screw Libertarians. We need a progressive tax like we had when America was great, which is pretty much anytime before Reagan. As for the Green party, we need action not reaction. I've never spoke with a Green party advocate that wasn't just over the top pissed about what everyone is doing to Mother Nature. We don't need emotion, we need policy. We need fusion power plants so we can stop producing CO2 gas, but the Greens I've spoke to hate that idea because it's technology. They aren't really a political party as much as a group of anti technology people, what Carl Sagan called in his book Neo-Luddites. It would be as bad as the Republican party that was consumed from within by Christian Conservatives and in their world view apparently insane leadership is fine. The only mature choice today is the Democratic party. No, I am not a registered Democrat, but politics is like the wind, and the ship of state has to occasionally tack a bit to get where it needs to be.

Do you know of any Trump voters that have flipped their vote since that debacle of a debate?

I know the feeling, my entire family is low information with the exceptions of myself and my daughters. Does this president have to go on a killing spree and start eating his own waste on TV before we use the 25th amendment? All I can say is the Republicans will NEVER recover. They were obviously stupid back when that idiot Reagan was president, they got away with it so they pushed the envelope, it got worse and worse, at one point G.W. Bush was as bad as it could possibly get then Trump said "hold my beer." I have voted Republican in the past, I even registered as a Republican to support some needed local reforms in Long Beach Ca. But all that's over, I still don't call myself a Democrat, but I'll NEVER vote Republican again. For now I say I'm Progressive, but if they go off the rails I'll block them too just like the Republicans. Political parties need to keep their policies sane or they need to die of neglect.

Ick. God isn't emotions. First of all emotions are real. Hormone rush during sex caused a lot of "ritual sex" magic, because we confuse goose bumps with a presence, we see faces in clouds, and we practice our arguments in our brain like a reality simulator. This is why stupid people only act on their Gut. When people start talking about following their gut, run TF away.

I think the point I get from it was he got his supernatural heat wave and it made no difference in the virus. Already busted.

Sorry, not my fan fiction. If God is so smart why didn't he invent time travel? It never dawned on humans that time was a dimension until H.G. Wells. If the Bible were written now, there would damn sure be time travel. I've read analysis from experts that compare historic literary techniques. There's nothing special about the Bible from contemporary documents as far as obvious literary techniques.

Every religious person is also an atheist...

Argument framing is weird. Theist try to make it God or no God, giving a perception that the odds would be 50/50. But all things being equal the pro God 50% would have to be divided by the number of alternative religions making the odds dramatically lower even given this horrible false play on perception their argument creates.

The last time I was in a Church (long story) Obama was still president. From what was said, Church is God this and God that and that's why things are bad because of the policies of Obama, repeat until it's time to leave. It is this lack of awareness of a line of separation that pissed off George Washington when he stopped going to church after hearing a sermon about how Government should be run by the minister. They resent their obsessive opinions aren't given the weight that their emotions say they deserve. Screw them.

I had family that I would humor so they could be comfortable in their delusions. My Grandmother for example who died convinced that fire came from a substance called phlogiston. *** The phlogiston theory is a superseded scientific theory that postulated the existence of a fire-like element called phlogiston (/flɒˈdʒɪstən, floʊ-, -ɒn/) is contained within combustible bodies and released during combustion. *** Phlogiston was disproved in the 1830s. I guess news traveled slowly in the old south. All those ancient relatives are dead now. As for the rest I have no reason to be less than blunt about anything.

As someone who grew up with physically and mentally abusive parents this always hurts to read.

Yea it's hard. We were abused by our abusive Christian parents because they loved us. (Right?) They talk about honoring your parents to live a long time. Implying we might die if we don't honor them. Spare the rod, spoil the child... and people wonder why people like me hate all things religious.

It's not hard to find women that are uncle Toms to women everywhere in the Republican party, especially if they self identify monotonously and a creepy bit too frequently as "Christian." This one obviously believes in intrusive big government that can chart millions of minstrel cycles to catch offenders? Funny how they claim to be for "Less" government considering this viewpoint. They just mean they don't want rules and regulations on corporations to keep public safety and prevent corporate poisoning of the environment. Their less government tends to push the public into wage slavery and oppressive government over site of personal choices.

Trump says he has COVID-19. Is it a stunt?

Willow_Wisp comments on Oct 3, 2020:

The real thing that bugs me is the lack of tweets... like they can't wipe his phone so he can tweet? How sick do you have to be to not want to tweet when you tweet like the Donald? I think this is my primary reason for not thinking this is a lie.

No, I don't think it's a stunt, I could be wrong, but I want what I want.

Well... kinda hard to argue with that logic.. 😁 [youtube.com]

This is a conservative flip the script tactic, I doubt this woman isn't an actor. Awakenings don't take you deeper into the nightmare like this. As always the level confusion between local public school policy and national DNC policy. I've heard this song and dance before. Mostly from arch conservatives that pretend to be Democrats.
