Well here is the bottom line, communism has been a long proven failure and doesn't work because it goes off the idea that all men are infallible and can't be corrupted. Democratic socialism is a huge failure when you look at canada and other any other country that has it, canada is easiest for me because it throw a huge wrench into the thing all socialist want witch is free health care and free collage. Mk well who has to pay for all of that? You & me & the rest of society in taxes, witch means at the end of the day when we all get that nice paycheck we always love getting, that dollar amount is now just 40% of what you could of had but now don't because of those taxes. Why do you think the canadian dollar is not worth anything right now? Because of inflation of their taxes, and the lost of trust in that dollar. Let me also ask you this who here knows what gives that amazing green piece of paper everyone loves it's worth?

It valued just if people trust in it, and are willing to accept it as payment, right?

Yes

90% correct it also has value based on the trust in said government printing that currency.

Now, what do you think will happen to said dollar if it was related to a government that does nothing but screw over people and makes bad policy choices?

Mike Pence is a great guy but I don't think he is best suited for President with the current news and left. We need someone like Trump who can play by the new dirty rules and keep them on their toes. I think Pence is better in the Vice President role by being a balance on the scale and (as much as I love Trump) act as the calm voice of reason.

Maybe a calm push like what Pence can do is what we need after Trump but I see the news and left just walking all over him.

I don't think we need to keep running with a Trump like figure. I could see us running with someone more refined, who can punch out at times. For example, I could see a Cruz push with a larger focus on being personable.

I'd go for either a Pence or Cruz presidency in 2024.

I don't like this Vice President runs after the President sort of thing since it usually never works for the American people.

I don't think Pence runs. Honestly, Ted Cruz is my first guess. I think there needs to be some form of name recognition, and the only Republican candidate that I could see with the recognition is Cruz. I like Dan Crenshaw, but he isn't the most policy driven guy, from what I can recall.

I like Pence, policy wise and his demeanor, but I don't think he is a good move from Trump's energy level.

*Pence gets picked as Vice President a third time.*

He'll be known as America's Vice President. <:salut:730846445732888630> (historically)

Hope you aren't trying to start a poll, here, since this is the poll discussion channel. That being said, if he is a candidate, yes.

idk maybe

I respect Dan Crenshaw but I disagree with him on manh of the policies he has made.

Facts

Which policies? I don't know much about his policy making, but I do know his general stances.

For one he supports red flag laws

Yikes...

As far as section 230 goes
I think the companies should be responsible for promoted content, and "fact checks" which are also published content
the rest of the "platform" content they shouldn't be responsible for

True. I think that is the important distinction. Are they simply platforms or are they publishers? Fact checking and promoting is a form of publishing. That is not and should not fall under S 230, but I agree the platform aspect, as long as they don't remove content that shouldn't be removed, can still fall under S 230.

You just have to be very clear in the rules about what should be removed.

that's one of the problems
the rules are super vague

Section 230 was to protect platforms from the content of their subscribers. If the platform steps in for an editorial role, they should lose those protections.

should we trust polls this year

no

hail no

Look at 2016

Hillary was predicted to win by like 5 so add like 7 to trump

It will be more accurate

.warnlog

ok

can a poll be done to see everyone's age, like reactions showing "10-15", "16-18", "19-22", "23-29", "30-35"... ?

10-12 shouldn't even be allowed <:dogekek:726878872607653918>

whatever age ranges are reasonable, curious to see ratio of little sh1ts vs middle age vs old farts

and maybe male vs female

🤷why not

You can put it in <#725110151211778098>

@rr

sure, thanks
