Thereby using the claim that it causes cancer to dissuade people from ever purchasing it.

@Blood it costs the company money to print that on there or they'll@get fined.

And thus impacting the potential profit that can be made from the sale of that item.

@Clonemaster™ 6.41 right, except the problem is not gov, ITS CORPORATIONS trying to buy off the gov, with less gov, they dont have to pay off shit, they now have afree pass to do as they please lmao

cornsyrup apparently isn't processed the same as sugar, as it is very fattening

If so, then it's a severely midguided attempt.

People that buy sawblades aren't concerned with what they cause

@Aqua [FC Gazovik Damascus] no i live in sweden mate cuckistan

> impeaching trump for having 2 scwoops

@fr got you mixed up with someone, then

np

I challenge anyone in this chat to indisputably prove to me that sawblades cause cancer.

sorry m8

its k

@Extra Crispy whatever happened to plain old American sugar. smh

@Fusion lol, i agree it is silly

@futurestorms It ended up in Mexico

in Mexican Coke.

Mmm...

cornsyrup was subsidized, and eventually a number of research projects made it cheaper to produce and purchase than sugar

@Composers Please can I get Textipede and Serious User 🤠

@Fusion mexican coke is delicious. Soda in large quantities is bad.

Honestly, real sugar sodas do taste a lot better than sodas with corn syrup.

I can't distinguish specifically what it is about the taste, but it's just better.

@Extra Crispy Corn by products are in a lot of stuff. We grow so much of it.

the only reasons as to why the corporations have more say in gov't than us is because the corporate tax holds less of an influence on corporations than the income tax does on citizens, resulting in more money being available for corporations than citizens

It's like how diet sodas suck - you can't put your finger on why they taste so bad, but they just do

@Fusion I'll take a small batch cream soda with cane sugar any day.

@futurestorms imagine if corporations could put addictive chemicals that would make you want to purchase said soda and consume it in a very alarming rate, regardless of health concerns to you, you think they would not if they could? there motive after all is profit

@Blood well the the government handles the perogatives that the constitution delegates to the government, so it's only the government's responsibility to protect the rights of coporations just as any citizen's rights are protected. It's not the government's job to regulate them

the chemicals in diet sodas are known to directly cause cancer

>addictive chemicals

yes

They already have that

it's called cigarettes.

@Blood Good. Wish i thought of it. No one is holding a gun to my head saying 'drink it, NOW'

Personally think cigarettes have no purpose.

@Clonemaster™ 6.41 first of no, the constitution does not mention protecting corporations, also what kind of biases shit is, "protecting them " but not "regullationg them"

the gov't subsidized research programs that would make addictive fattening chemicals easier to produce and cheaper to purchase than regular sugar

The tobacco in them could be used for poultices instead of smoking.

Yeah, aspartame etc are disgusting.

Taste wise.

its literal cancer

Give ol' future that sweet siren song known as sucrose.

@futurestorms you think people that smoke cigs dont want to stop? do they say "hey its not like someone is holding agun to my head"

corn syrup is cheaper to purchase than sugar

there are chemicals in the cigs that make it extemely hard to quit

@Blood Don't care. You make the choice. They supply it. Supply and demand.

if we were to raise the corporate tax and lowered income tax, it would allow for citizens to as a whole earn more money than corporations do

@Blood the government simply has no role in anything to which it's not afforded by the constitution. That's the way the government is structured.

Reminder, though, that initially people made the decision to start smoking

it doesn't matter if the corporations leave or not, largely because the demands that they would fill would be open for new companies to fill

@futurestorms also what about monopolies in which a single corporations controls 80 to 90

of the product

and sugar is already addictive
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/23719144

90% of television is controlled by 6 corporations

Cig smokers are literally cancer, they chose to start, they choose to not stop, and they whine and bitch every step of the way

pm me if you need roles

or mods

sugar has a different effect than cornsyrup and aspartame

much different

what choice do you have when a small group control most of the "choices"

@Blood Free market system. If i had a company and a mega conglomerate wanted to buy it, well my ship just came in!!!

who wants mod

sure

@xX NegroSaki Samurai Xx WAT?

@futurestorms right and then they can influence gov with all that money

@xX NegroSaki Samurai Xx I would like to be readded to the mod team.

@Blood Lobbying? Ok.

I also support futurestorms getting mod.

Give me mod. I want to ban loli mew

@Fusion im making sure you will never get mod again

@futurestorms yea lobbying, lol you made it sond like a good thing, but you are a right winger lmao

so i would not be surprised

Well, shucks. Thanks, @Fusion

Give extra crispy mod

@xX NegroSaki Samurai Xx Sounds like moderator bias. Something I'll have to talk with your superiors about.

He looks like he's got his priorities straight

@futurestorms soon

<@228757589402451968> <:ThinkStare:356316814847901698>

now you are really never getting mod

@Blood I am indifferent. I want my piece of the pie so i can retire in 25 years.

<:DabBoi:362790949446877184>

@futurestorms nothing wrong with that i guess

@xX NegroSaki Samurai Xx okey dokey.

the only way to destroy corporate influence on lobbying is to create the circumstances in which individuals would have more cash to lobby, a lot like the NRA and such

@Blood Hey, gotta feed my 35 ferrets.

@Extra Crispy and what if those groups develop more sinister intentions than the corps?

@Extra Crispy

increasing corporate tax to the point that they have less money to afford with lobbying would be a part of that process

The ferrets keep stealing my fidget spinners.

how about.......NO LOBBYING

lmao if the NRA started becoming a real shitty group, then the people funding it would cease to fund it

lobbying only makes what would happen illegally anyway just legal for everyone

wait but you think the nra is not an example of lobbying groups? ever heard of weapons companies?

@Extra Crispy

@Composers Read my PM, please.

the NRA is a lobbying group

Term limits.
No lobbying.
End government waste

its the most successful example of a lobbying group
