It's more about the mentality
Of course you're going to succeed if you're smarter etc, infact anyone can work hard and succeed
it's just purely choice 99% of the time
Nah
Plenty of it is genetics
Equal opportunity is the foundation of a free, fair, and prosperous economy
(only the y axis is relevant to what I said)
Who do you guys think will win the 2020 election, and why?
I can’t tell yet
Probably Trump, too much split voting in the Dem Party, Bernie, Biden, and lots of women compared to just one in 2016, I understand most people vote for the nominee but I'm expecting some write ins.
Don't understand why there's so many Dems running,
You could say the same about Repubs in 2016
But look where that got us
Nobody stood out there though
And there was one lady Carly Fiorina
Now we have several women and several high status men
Plus Howard Schultz running would probably help
Schultz would severiously dent the political landscape
Do you think it would help GOP win or DEM?
It would definitely hurt the Dems but there’s a chance that if Trump makes a fool of himself that he could snag moderate Repubs too
The only problem is that everybody hates him 😂
Remember that time Congress had a televized lottery for the Vietnam draft?
The US had a ~13% casualty rate.
Let's have a televized lottery for every Congressman's name. 11 names drawn to die, 60 to be wounded
How about no
y not
Congresspeople aren’t the cause of the problem, it’s the system and the people the system represents
(actually, some of it is the congresspeople)
Why not set an example?
Actions have consequences.
I personally believe congressional salaries should be lowered
170k base? endorsements? donations? books? it's too much
not to mention benefits and the fact that their staff are paid separately from their salary
^
Maybe, yeah, plus the whole election process takes an insane amount of time and money which makes them inefficient
Why not just abolish congress?
