It's been found to be a monopoly. I'm sure they'll appeal, but we may find out what it looks like in our own lifetimes.

Then does it have the ability to decide Roe?

I understand my question starts at the wrong point. I'm asking how far you'd extend your point.

Because I find it interesting and perhaps feasible.

He's the sort that demands this be a crime.

Feels like karma in a few ways.

Made up things stick, if not handled.

We saw it with Clinton. Now we're seeing it with Vance and furniture.

Made up things work. Handle them if you can, otherwise that perception becomes difficult to fight.

This = teach any aspect of Christianity.

The constitution won't allow favorable treatment, so if they want the Bible, they get Satanism too.

I agree generally on not making it mandatory.

That said, I wish more people were exposed to other forms of thought and this would help. To me, an elective seems fair.

I dunno that I'd be sad about philosophy and world views (with religion being embedded) as some kind of civics class that enhances one's high school diploma.

Per Dan Dennett, I can get behind teaching religion.

I'm reasonably confident that's not what the OK legislature meant to have happen, but it's the only constitutional way to do this. I think.

They aren't only using the value of their assets. Their assets grow there are dividends, there are payouts.

There's income. They don't have their money in checking account with no interest paid.

If your wealth increased, you have income.

"Unity" = blind loyalty and obedience to Trump

That it works so often is cause for bought of despair.

That is a succinct version of what I think, too. I'd be happier with others, but understand the choice.

The sexual harassment settlement for the person in his office could make certain points harder to land.

You know that scene from Life of Brian where they discuss what have the Roman's done for them?

I feel like that's how people treat the planet. It just hasn't done enough for us. We need to be mad at the planet and piss all over it. It's our right.

I miss those days... They were less interesting, less dire, and more hopeful.

Other people are the problem.

It's like I don't need to worry about my carbon footprint... It's all the big corps that need to change.

Please understand, this is posted with irony. Not so much sarcasm... Just pained irony.

I'd really like to be out of the "provide military support" role for a renegade and genocidal government.

Maybe he'll be the new FTC person. The current one is too effective.

Is that what those are?

I thought the Resolute Desk was a sit-stand.

His inclination to autocracy is not theoretical. It's demonstrated.

But journalists are asking about what he said he'd do... We already know.

They'd do well to remind us.

Occupy was under Obama. As much as it pains me to say.

I'm still expecting Trump to "fire" Vance. Most likely after he knows the Dem VP pick.

He's going to have to do something about his free fall and I don't expect Trump to do any introspection.
