Lol. Some comments are so triggered.
some bring up a good point, can we end oil subsidies?
@Grenade123 Depends. When they say subsidies, they also include externalities, which really aren’t subsidies. There are some policies that do support oil/gas, but I don’t know by how much.
how about...we just start ending government aid to large companies across the board?
@Grenade123 spicy. I like it. It would piss them off though because they want support for the things they like, but not for the things they don’t.
Or at least some of them.
it would piss off everyone
thats why its a good idea
lmao
republicans beholden to oil, so they don't like it. dems using green energy as a political weapon wouldn't like it.
and large companies wouldn't like it because it means they need to start competing again.
I’m really not sure how beholden any part is to any particular source of energy. The decisions don’t match the rhetoric a lot of the times. @Grenade123
Have you done the math to determine how much the government makes back from oil subsidies by taxing the value added to petroleum by the rest of the economy? (Petroleum is an input to almost freaking everything.)
@devpav the EIA has shown that the subsidies that started fracking have already been paid back + a billion too.
thats not the concern i have.
Unless they are giving the same amount to small competition as they do the large players.
@Grenade123 that isn’t happening. It’s a cluster f...

..fucking hell.. One of these days there will be a hashtag; _#ArchivistsAgainstRottenMedia_
By the end of this year we’ll probably see the end of the Mueller investigation. He’s rapping it up.

Its only taken about two years
Hopefully they did find some hard evidence otherwise this will not work out well
A lot shorter than Ken Starr
Which ended with Clinton caught only for lying about taking head from a consenting adult woman
i'm betting his endgame is a perjury trap and nothing to actually do with russia
That's all that Ken Starr managed after five years.
@Exiled Sentinel Does he have a real escape plan though?
cause anything short of trump in the gallows will end up with him in the gallows of the SJWs.

Whatever you may feel about the minimum wage this seems like a pretty suspect maneuver to keep voter's voices from being heard 😕
As far as this one, all I can say in dumb. :-/

no guarantee it would have passed. But even if it did, If the people of a state want to fuck up their state, i say let em.
@ryuplaneswalker his escape plan is throwing it to the House and running like hell.
I just don't like how the legislature could usurp a referendum and then pretty much kill it. Taken to its logical conclusion it will prevent the referendum process from providing its intended purpose, to bring popular change when the elected leaders won't. It is exactly when you have united government that the referendum process is most critical.
@DrYuriMom Typical stupid ass politicians, pass something you don't like then do everything you can to undermine it so you can say "Hey we passed it see?!"
It is the shit I hate about the GOP and the Dems
As far as Mueller, he's just going back to his private practice
they are spineless assholes who don't believe the things they say they do.
The problem with that Cat is that if he doesn't try to go after Trump..the left will eat him alive.
so he won't be able to go back to his private practice, he will have the REEEEistence outside his offices protesting.
Mueller is one of the reasons we went into Iraq.
Read this, and ask yourself, if he didn’t get destroyed over this, will he really suffer from RussiaGate blowback? I doubt it. Iraq was way worse. Hundreds of thousands died.
“ Robert S. mueller testimony before the Senate Select Community on Intelligence of the United States Senate “
Mueller’s testimony before the Senate was pivotal in dragging America into the Iraq war. He falsely claimed that Saddam had WMDs and was a clear threat to America. Claiming that “ Baghdad has the capability and, we presume, the will to use biological, chemical or radiological weapons against US domestic targets...” . He also says “ Our particular concern is that Saddam may supply al-Qaeda with biological, chemical, or radiological material ...” This was all fake news that killed thousands of people and cost millions of dollars.
Now he tells us that Trump may have colluded with Russia in illegal election tampering. Is this a man to be trusted?
