i'm not asking you to do anything, unless of course you're a member of the super wealthy who don't pay a fair share in taxes. The burden should be on the wealthiest individuals who profit off our backs and keep us in this perpetual capitalist hell.

the funds sholdn't come from the working class, but instead the rich. increase taxes on the highest earners to fund welfare.

i think anyone should be allowed to choose whether they want to work, and if they choose not to, they should at a minimum be provided housing, food, running potable water and clothing.

didn't the amish already win, and that's why the mormons had to leave and go out west?

I don't get why people say that he should stay in the race at this point. He's going to lose. The best bet is to kick him to the curb and get a better candidate. One who's not 120 years old and is wholly unlikable.

Be the change you want to see, my dude.

Interestingly, gun control laws were implemented to keep guns out of the hands of minorities. Gun control is literally racist.

I'm not sure about lighter than air craft, but in the US you don't need a license to fly microlight aircraft, as long as it's less than 250 pounds and has less than a 5 gallon fuel tank, iirc

who's the author? I actually like this writing style...

Edit: Thank you, it's Bobbie Ann Mason. She was a finalist for the Pulitzer prize. I've downloaded some of her books and can't wait to read them :)

You don't have to, that's the beauty of it all.

America is already doomed anyway. Trump is going to win because biden is an unlikable person and nobody really feels inspired to vote for him. and somehow Trump is more popular.

when trump gets elected, america is going to hell in a handbasket. trump will be god-emperor until he croaks, then the next crazy in line will take over. It's time to start preparations to abandon ship.

because biden (and the democratic party in general) are a bunch of cowards who think that they will prevail simply by taking the high road. Fascism was never defeated by strongly worded speeches or political actions, it always took blood.

I used to be a pacifist too. But apparently, peaceful protests can be too easily ignored.

What's most worrying is that this hasn't happened yet. Once Trump gets elected, it's all over, folks. Time to pack it in.

remember what we used to do with collaborators during the french resistance?

We could probably mount a pretty decent resistance with what we have available. look what happened in iraq during the occupation. insurgency would be the way to go in a rebellion against the us govt.

I'll vote for biden unless he drops out and a more progressive candidate presents itself, in which case I won't vote biden.

Just turn off the oxygen and get better candidates.

He's a redneck deer, as evidenced by the truck, therefore he does not need to wear a shirt while driving,

Photovoltaic cells are even less efficient, I think they're somewhere between 10-20% efficient. I think the way to go would be a solar collector, like the Archimedes death ray, but much much bigger.
