Nationalist

A clear reason? 20% of a nation which is too corrupt even for NATO? What a joke.

And it's going to be fabulous to watch them get what they deserve.

Governments - invested in man made CC. Universities - invested in man made CC. Lots of sources...like the WHO...George Soros and his merry band of NGOs. What I've seen in the past, is attempt after attempt to scare the sh1t outta the people so much that they willingly watch on while inflation reduces them financially. None of said predictions or models have been anywhere near accurate. Me thinks you been had Mike.

Ok... Who pays for these half-baked models and projections?

You're comical. Now...back in your crib.

And??? Is there a point here?

Not particularly. Mike you've already admitted the "institutions" are feeding us garbage. Yet you sit there enjoying the stench. Pick a lane.

Who in Ukraine? The 60 year olds they are stacking up for slaughter? Their wives? Their kids? Oh wait...the kids are already dead. You really dont know how pathetic your posts are...do you?

Modeling. I dont wanna ban Democrats. That would be silly IMO. However...I do think a few belong in jail.

Am i to assume you have never heard of due diligence?

Torrey Pines. Sounds challenging. San Diego. Good. I have an old friend there.

That is how it works. Especially when one decides to not include all factors.

1. 😜 2. Ok strictly speaking, I suppose you are not. But you do contribute to a social issue by coming on heavily for one side of the disagreement. You know my stance on that. We can do both without causing inflation. 3. The Hippies wanted to grow their hair, smoke dope, make love not war. So I suppose in some ways you're right. Progies started decades ago. Many of them wound up on Quadra Island...so I've seen. If I remember correctly, both political parties were opposed to the riots and madness. Today the Democrat Party and even the Canadian Liberals, go as far as encouraging such behavior. You say "freedom" rather mockingly. Tell me...do you value law and order? You value institutions. You must value law and order. This is "The Social Contract". Now...are you free to donate to charities? I do. I'm sure you do too. I do it because I'm actually happy to help. But when I'm told i'm donating my money to pay for people filling up Niagra hotels that just...showed up and learned to say "asylum"...now I'm a tad concerned. I dont remember paying for hundreds of thousands of refugees being part of that Social Contract. You mock freedom because you dont like it. You want absolute institutional control. 4. And what's not to decry?

Well it's nice to agree with you on something. @Michael Hardner...and he's correct. One can "extrapolate" but such extrapolation is meaningless because all factors are never included in any model. Thus financially punishing people is what it looks like... Mean and baseless.

So...I'm still wondering if this is really a problem?

I think the idea of the OP, is to give Libbies semi-credit for something. Income and wealth inequality is and always has been...evident. But is it...a "problem"? So...we do see that the top earners have been making themselves richer at a very increased pace over the last 5 years. Are they gathering as much as they can, expecting hard times ahead? Or are they just pricks for whom there is never enough? Who knows... There are many reasons people can be uber-wealthy. Birth right...hard work...intelligence...talent...luck...and/or any combination of these. Since this is rather obvious, why would we discourage these traits rather than admire them? Aspire to join them? One of the most important traits a parent can instill in his/her child is "confidence". If a person can believe in one's self, half the challenge of success is in place already.

Nice try Libbie but... 1. My "cherry" was popped decades ago. 2. You're sacrificing more people now than ever before. Mental instability...increased poverty...lack of readily available power...tent cities...increased tax burden...and of course...social upheaval. And for what? Can anyone answer that? What has this Progressive movement produced that has been of benefit to anyone? Income inequality has always been there. The cream rises to the top. The rest... Believes blindly in institutions.

No Let's do conflate the financial troubles with climate activism. Only an id1ot doesn't understand that forcing the price of energy up, is destructive to these poor and middle-class folks you Libbies profess to represent. Your point here is so far off base that I must surmise you're willing to sell any old bullshit to the masses in order to maintain a boot on the throat of... The masses. "AHHH! WE ALL GONNA DIIIEEE!" pfft...

As you have already admitted, these institutions you buy into have been lying to all of us so...Fck 'em!

Here's sample questions and links to study. https://www.mometrix.com/academy/osat/#Free_OSAT_Practice_Tests What faith is this against robo?

Ya I can afford it. So where do you live exactly? Is it a nice neighborhood? Is there a pub, pizza place and golf course close by?

What an amusing yet also revealing thread. An illegal immigrant...a rag-head who had failed a basic English test and got his DL in California and Washington state no less...kills 3 citizens by making an illegal U-Turn...and the Libbie objections are... With sideline cheerleading by our resident faux conservative... Tell ya what...Libbies...you whine and cry and stamp your feet as much as you 2 limp pricks want. The American citizens will cage this criminal. And when this POS has paid his dues to America, he'll be sent back to the land of marvelous toilet engineering. Oh...and to show "compassion", you'll be pleased to know he'll get his head-rag back once he's back to sh1tting in the streets. Have a nice day girls.

Yes because the teachings of Christ are so corrosive. Not like the teachings of Hilary-Billary. Oh wait...

Well robo...not for long. As I retire, I'm having my sister sponsor me as a landed immigrant. Where exactly do you live? I could move in right next door.

Good Lord. You live in LaLaLand. Correction: A negotiated peace that requires compromise and a desire to stop the killing. Apparently you dont understand either concept. PLUS...name the last war the USA, or any of the NATO nations, won. Better a guy who stops wars, than the NYT...who lied to the public. That's just stupid. Who do you think won...and who cares...except a bunch of loud, obnoxious, destructive little sucks who would have thousands more die for their hatred and pride. Ur a real "basket of deplorables".
