The U.S. before liberals ruined it.

That would be 1776
You would have been a Tory at the time

Actually, he would have been a slave.

But at least we have a kind of answer when America was great before. The time of slavery, child labor, before unions and OSHA. When manufacturers could put sawdust in the food and dump their waste in the nearest river. When beating your wife was legal and doctors didn't bother to wash their hands.

Thanks for clearing that up Boaz.

I tried investing in stocks this year, lost $3000. Luckily, I'm not poor.
But somehow folks here believe it's in a poor person's best interest to do the same.

Society runs Best when everyone provides for themselves.

Please provide a reference for this Libertarian/Capitalist utopia you dream of. As far as I know, there is no such place.

Remember, Ayn Rand wrote fiction.

Political parties are unAmerican.

I was working at an AT hostel for a few weeks in September and we discussed something like this, if Laundrie would come by. We pretty much concluded that he wouldn't be stupid enough to go to a hostel or hotel.

Sad...just...sad.

Haven't seen a good self-retorting retort in a while.

Caps key broken Tor?
It's funny, in my prog-rock and then punk days, we loved Ayn Rand as a figure of anti-authoritarianism. Howard Roak was my hero.

QAnon conference? What's the point? Are they going to hang around and talk about how everything they believed in was wrong? About how every single prediction did not happen? What the hell is wrong with people?

The GQP is a death cult.

...Biden voted for that war. He must be a POS too.

I know, and he was still a better choice than Trump.

Oh I know why. Dogs are our favorite slaves so of course an ultra-obedient machine with no freewill would remind them of a dog.

Why is it a dog? Could be a cat, or a deer or whatever.

Not my headline.

That's a much better headline.

Like most, you're conflating capitalism and commerce. Commerce can and does exist in every economic system. Capitalism is commerce as religion.

Political dissent must be punished.

Is there any BS Cons won't bleat to defend their criminal heroes?

...the deep state that installed it.

Yet somehow, this omnipotent Deep State wasn't powerful enough to get rid of McConnell and other GQP tools.

CoVid is the #1 killer of police in the US. Why isn't he begging for his officers to get vaxxed?
This truly is bizarro world.

...America-hating crap like CRT, the '1619 project', etc.

So America and racism are the same thing to you?
I see these things as "America-Loving" because America is a concept and any effort to completely fulfill that concept is a paean to it.

And it totally underscores why you need honest, capable people running the polls.

This is in the same ward where I am also a Judge of Elections, though this occurred in a different division and polling place. I definitely see how this could happen.

Doesn't understand the difference between attack and defense.

That's cute, act like the folks you support didn't plan and execute this. Act like they didn't know this was coming and did everything they could to help it along.

Fake News! Ask any of the "sensible" Republicans and classic Liberals here. Trump is an outlier, a has been, yesterday's news.

The Cons elected a guy who bankrupted an oil company, the elected a guy who bankrupted a casino. Why anyone thinks they have any financial acumen is way beyond me.
