Must be a slow one
She's been fucking some way better hung niggers than me lately
Does the rest of your family know you're a half-breed mutt?
So republicans pitch a bitch fit that obama pardoned non-violent drug convictions and at the same time thought this guy was a keen pick
what's his plan? "Oh look, violent crime skyrocketed now that a democrat beat me, aw jeez"
plenty of republicans are pissed at bevin
what an actual fuckin wastrel
at best bevin was a neocon anyway
don't neocons preach at their podiums about 'law and order?'
its why the state voted in an idiot like beshear, bevin was hated
well clearly little else could have looked worse at the time
a fuckin disgrace, our duopoly system
@Jokerfaic this is why it would be really helpful to have a strong 3rd party in the US
It would help keep the major parties in line
we need our own purple party
a ukip of the us
usip
Yes, agreed
confront superfluous foreign entanglements
focus on domestic policy as a primary activity
does every state have its own lottery, like Oregon's?
No, it's not legal in every state
mihgt look into addressing that
state level revenue source, and cut federal spending sources could be used for a small stipend added to each pool
There are definitely some ways the states could raise more money, but I personally think cuts on the spending side would help more
well sure, but few measures don't attempt to hit a hundred birds with one stone anyway
Yeah
I forget who I was talking to about it, but this new party would need to address abondoned industiral hubs in the center of the nation
That's actually a failing of the Legislature, though. Bills should be concise and narrowly focused
the way he was talking about it, basically scrapping the equipment there and refitting the facilities with new purpose-built machinery seems best
What would help with heartland issues would be to decrease centralized control, both federally and in state capitols
Larry Sharpe had a really good manifesto on this kind of thing in 2018, when he was running for NY governor
Lyndon LeRoche wanted to abolish the federal reserve
might also help
but then Bush and republicans essentially put him under house arrest during both his presidential runs, and branded him a "socialist" out of absolutely nowhere
and now that's all you'll find on his wikipedia
that he's a socialist or some bullshit, that he studied marx, and that he was, by their explicit instruction, branded a "political extremist"
don't for a fucking instant think Democrats are the only party that operates with some sketch as fuck methods
and this habit of branding literally anything and everything Republicans don't like as 'socialism' is directly related to the massive rise of socialism-interested youths
Leftist/Socialists are complete loons
