Requires an act of congress and elimination of the filibuster. Not possible with the current makeup of the Senate. Need more blue senators, which is hard because California gets the same number of Senators as North Dakota, which has the same population as a small apartment complex in LA.

So we need record turnout for that. Vote.

He's not a dictator. Most of those would never pass in the Senate.

Owning a house is fine, being a landlord is despicable.

It is thinner, and would absolutely pour off a spoon slowly like lava.

Same

Type-C ports are a lot more sensitive to dirt in my experience. I can keep it working if I clean the port every couple weeks, but at this point I just pretend phones don't have charging ports.

And then got virtually all of their demands pushed through?

He's the commander in chief of the US military. If there aren't repercussions for exceeding his authority, it's essentially unlimited.

Conservative: "Then they need to increase taxes! Oh wait..."

Conservatives literally believe that lowering taxes increases tax revenue by increasing the total revenue to be taxed by more than the decrease caused by a lower rate.

Honestly I'm kinda OK with that.

A) the legal drinking age, age of consent, voting age, and age of Draft/ military eligibility should be the same. Whether that's 21 or 18 or whatever is up for debate, but if you're old enough to kill people at your country's behest you should be old enough to decide what goes in your body.

B) Lots of countries are pretty lax about kids drinking small amounts of alcohol, and it doesn't lead to increased negative outcomes.

You sound like a MAGA moron. Also encouraging people not to vote, and encouraging people to not vote for Biden elsewhere in the thread. Sus.

No, if you're low income and don't get healthcare through your employer it's pretty fucking awesome compared to what came before it, which was "oh, well you see the hospital exit there? Keep going until you hit the gutter and die there kthnx bye. Oh, you have insurance? Well your provider says this is a pre-existing condition, so refer to my original statement."

The subsidies on the ACA marketplace make insurance feasible, and the restrictions on pre-existing conditions make it actually useful. Even after being gutted.

You're spreading misinformation that could legitimately cause people harm by not seeking out coverage through Obamacare. Could it be better? Of course.

Southern people just like symbols of slavery. What's wrong with celebrating symbols of slavery? It's how I was raised. I don't need to consider how descendants of slaves feel about seeing the battle flag of slavers celebrated. People who murdered hundreds of thousands of people so they could continue owning black people just used it as a symbol of institutional hate, what's so wrong with that?

I was like 3 when airwolf went off the air, but the theme song still pops into my head occasionally. That show was awesome.

Overall risk of bias was high, and certainty of evidence was very-low.

Not exactly a smoking gun, the study found that maybe it increased HDL levels very slightly.

Fuck Obamacare! I get my health insurance through the ACA for free cause I lost my job in the coal mine when a big rock crushed my leg! These taxes going to welfare queens are ruining the country! Trump!

As someone who works for tips in catering, I'd quit the moment tips stopped coming in. $15/hr minimum wage made sense in 2019, today my family would be fucking homeless even with my wife working full time, and I live in a fairly low CoL city. I'd literally be better off not working because daycare costs almost the same amount that I would make.

Meanwhile I'd have to deal with the stress of 5 assholes every day who think it's ok to order $500 worth of food a piece with 2 hours of notice. No thanks.

The restaurant industry would come to a grinding halt.

Might just be the insane amount of sodium in the meal. Arby's is salty af. Too much salt can cause diarrhea cause your body wants to reach equilibrium and dumps water into your gut to make it isotonic.

The American physique is prepared for this salt assault by being chronically under hydrated.
