$3?! Those things are like $100+ now!

WAT! Did you buy that policy at the toilet store?

A smart and wise person uses this opportunity to teach. A smug asshole uses this opportunity to scoff.

Yeesh! How much were your premiums?

Because they understand that’ll lead to industrialization and eventually the need to have a job. They’re happy the way they are.

The brainwashed thinks that if industry had less red tape, they’d be able to innovate more, let the market decide pay and hiring, and cost us less taxes in monitoring. All despite history proving that it only leads to the rich

That happens in a small economy, without thoroughly entrenched trillion dollar companies. But eventually the most ruthless companies will kill all of the other companies, dominate everything, and operate with impunity. That’s where we are now.

Don’t forget he was also talking about letting companies dump toxic waste into our drinking water supply.

If it’s covered under insurance then it’s $5-$30 (depending on policy) for a co-pay and that’s it. If it’s not covered under your policy then it’s eleventy bajillion dollars. The insurance will also pull stupid shit like not letting you pick up your refill early, or making you get some other medication that is similar, but not what your doctor prescribed. Of course the insurance company doesn’t pay eleventy bajillion dollars, they’ve negotiated it down to 50¢, but that’s what you’ll pay if you don’t have insurance.

We have a Bill of Rights, we just need to expand upon it. We also need to reinstate the Fairness Act, and make corporations not people again. Those two actions of eliminating the Fairness Act and making corporations people are responsible for 90% of the condition we’re in right now. Thanks Ronald McDonald Reagan!

I mean it’s mostly just something to say, I haven’t put a lot of thought into it. But there are things that are objectively true, and objectively false. If a company states something that is objectively false, then they should be held accountable. This PSN issue is an area where it becomes subjective, or at least difficult to prove, and then we’re right back where we started.

Right? I’m so completely sick of all the non-stop lying. If I was president, I’d issue an executive order making lying illegal.

More likely they’ll close all those bands so that corpos can use them for profit.

It won’t be gone, it’ll be used to ensure the most powerful companies in the country never, ever, have any legitimate competition, and can do whatever the fuck they want. They’ll write whatever laws these companies want. They’ll make it illegal to try to start a new telecom.

No shit? Wow, I’ve played through the game 3 times and never thought to check. It’s so cheap that it wasn’t really ever an issue.

I think we need to discuss the serious chance that the Free Palestine message was designed to disrupt and demoralize the left.

No! Really?

Simma downa. She wasn’t my candidate and I didn’t vote for her. I’m just conveying the rational. Everyone knew what the only possible choice was to try to stop trump. To be clear, I didn’t vote for her because I live in a very blue state, and knew I could safely make my stand without increasing the odds of a trump win.

Because they know how these things go. Everyone here is an even smaller percentage of Americans than the number of people who voted for West. You can’t control the way that the average person is going to think and vote. But you can recognize it and try to support the lesser evil, or refuse to recognize it and maybe end up with the greater evil. Sorry, I don’t make the rules, or it would have turned out very differently. Obviously a bunch of people said “I’m not voting for the lesser evil because of XYZ reason”, so here we are with the greater evil.

Yup! But only one person had enough votes to potentially beat trump, which is how the system is designed. I checked last night, and I don’t remember the exact number, but Cornell West received something like 0.67% of the votes in my State. Knowing how the system works, we had one option to prevent a far right government, and it was a less right government. I didn’t design the system, I just live in it.

Gerrymandering.

TWICE!
