In today's politics, many ideas are split between and even within all the political parties. Often we find ourselves agreeing on one platform but some topics break our mold.

    Is the USA close to a Revolution ?

    Not an organized revolution, more like all out anarchy.

    Who here wants America to have a socialist government and be a socialist country?

    No, I want America to become a direct democracy. A representative democracy is a contradiction of terms.

    Do you approve of President Biden's job performance as president?

    Everything Biden has done so far is treason and anyone who approves of it is also a traitor.

    If you woke up in the wrong body for the gender assigned to you

    My gender was never assinged to me, I have always been unambiguously male. If yours was it's because you have a chromosome disorder, like xxy or xyy, that caused your genitals to develop ambiguously so your parents or your doctor decided to assign you a gender. So you're already waking up in the...

    Should proof of vaccinations be required to book and board domestic commercial flights in the United States?

    Not because covid is a threat but because I hate the airlines, I hate their stupid policies, I hate the flight attendants and I hate obnoxious people who still fly. Anything that costs them to lose business and make what few passengers they have left pay even more through the nose is a plus in...

    A crazy idea to address price gouging and inflation

    That's not even a solution, it's a contradiction of terms. Intellectual property IS the government getting in the way in order to discourage competition by making it illegal. If they're going to do that, fine, but they need to also regulate profits or we're going to see poverty creep until...

    A crazy idea to address price gouging and inflation

    Normally competition controls profits. But the government has created a market system that permits out-of-control profits by minimizing competition, so they are responsible for controlling profits. The only alternative is to maximize competition by eliminating all protections from competition...

    A crazy idea to address price gouging and inflation

    No, I want to cut prices by a lot and then raise sales taxes by some fraction of that to award retailers for being more fair and efficient. Price fixing is a bad idea because it doesn't allow price fluctuations due to cost fluctuations. Banning markups would work just fine because it would...

    A crazy idea to address price gouging and inflation

    We all feel the pain and inconvenience of price gouging and inflation but the last thing manufacturing and publishing monopolies would ever do is give up their intellectual property rights and geographical zones that protect them from competition so how can we stop them from literally...

    Overturn Roe v. Wade

    The Unborn Victims of Violence Act (2004) establishes that unborn babies are members of the species at all stages of development and can be victims of violent crimes, thereby implicitly establishing their personhood and therefore their right to life. But the right to life under the 14th...

    Overturn Roe v. Wade

    That's not how consent works. The consent only applies to the person you give it to. It doesn't apply to other people or other activities. As human beings with equal rights, the unborn must obtain their own consent. You see, equal rights not a problem.

    Overturn Roe v. Wade

    Because they *are* people; human beings. The only unambiguous and indisputable fact is that everything begins at conception. The only alternative is to grant the state, a legislature of mostly scientifically illiterate but functional psychopaths, the power to arbitrarily decide at what point...

    Overturn Roe v. Wade

    The whole point of equal rights to avoid anyone's rights negating the rights of others. It's unequal rights that threaten to negate equal rights.

    Overturn Roe v. Wade

    Equal rights is neither an assumption nor a conclusion, it's a fundamental principle of justice. Why should unborn babies not have equal rights?

    Overturn Roe v. Wade

    Precedence is what protects fallacious doctrine from being reversed for decades.
