#18 I'm pretty sure they did react... by pulling their triggers.

#13 Great suggestion for a site that is supposed to be about discussing issues.

We have a lower age limit on the Office, why not a cap?

Plant cholesterol refers to phytosterols, compounds in plants structurally similar to animal cholesterol that help lower LDL ("bad") cholesterol by blocking its absorption in the gut, found naturally in nuts, seeds, oils, whole grains, fruits, and veggies, and often added to fortified foods like margarine and juices for heart health

"We have had half a century to find a good solution to the problem of nuclear waste, and we are no closer now than we were in the 1960s. That is because there is no "good solution." We will never be able to find a risk-free method of storing nuclear waste."

There doesn't appear to be any great solutions to storing CO2, "holding" it in the atmosphere is working out amazingly bad for our long term prospects as a species.

It would seem the risk/reward may fall in favor of nuclear despite the drawbacks. If we continue to wait for a magic bullet solution while we improve renewables, we'll pass(even more than we have) irreversible tipping points.

boycotting the busses was a huge symbolic win, that didn't hurt the black community beyond not riding the bus.

boycotting your local economy has immediate ramifications that then hurt you. The federal government isn't going to even notice if the Minneapolis economy crashes... hell this administration will probably cheer it.

I'm not saying to do nothing, but this is action with no win and only self harm. Your example wasn't the same thing.

Do you always just immediately refute me, do you even attempt a discussion at any point anymore? I'm actually agreeing with you mostly on this, and you'll still push back.

I get your point Snoofy, but tanking it harder is to what benefit?

It's like pointing a gun at your head and yelling stop or I'll shoot.

so they'll hurt they're own economy to...?

Clown, jSeemingly if it could cast a wide net, and catch the majority of the middle class in it a foothold could be gained. From there amounts could then be varied, etc...

If it could replace other programs at the same time so it seemed more "fair", do it to get it enacted, and tune from there.

With the advent of AI, and jobs being replaced at both the manual and now intellectual level... something has to get done.

UBI makes way more sense and would be infinitely easier to sell to the public at large than student loan forgiveness.

Laura, I think there is a difference between someone finding themselves homeless, vs the perennially homeless.

I didn't read the article so maybe I'm way off base.

Like he didn't know what, that people search for things to be offended by?

it's either a little dark humor here and there, or lose your mind with state of things.

So you didn't call me maga...

make it three stooges. You're a dirtbag pretending to be centrist.

and I assumed you were more left based off that... apologies

Again(sigh)... what have I backed from Trump?

Never actually said you were a leftist... everyone just labels everything MAGA now if they don't agree with them. It's tiring.

Alexandrite, you'd consider a dyed in the wool hard core leftist from about 10 years ago MAGA now. I don't think 90% of the people on this site could accurately a identify a centrist. No surprise you can't either.

Compliments coming from the two stooges here.

I didn't say it was accurate... just a comical take on the technicalities of the situation and it's the details outside of the technical that make all the difference, it wasn't meant to be an insightful comment, just something silly.

damn it I messed the quote up...

"Looks like the Democrats are looking to have ANOTHER war against the Republicans to keep them from taking away their slave labor"

saw an interesting take...

how is that Dept of Education working out for us all?

Snoofy... on a spectrum what do you call the left most part in comparison the part just a little left of the middle?

Perhaps moderate left and extreme left? Doesn't have to mean extremism

shocking that as the right and the lefts extreme wings become more extreme people are left not wanting to associate with the brand.
