Both of you realize that lives are on the line right ? lives of US military and civilians and military around the world . Voting for Trump might cause a new world war , war against mexico , huge changes in the law for abortion , drugs , privacy laws and so on


Im not sure how you can think all that is going to be fun

Nah you're over-dramatizing it. If anything, Trump could actually have a very positive influence on the foreign affairs since he's a greedy business man who's probably willing to make deals with anybody no matter what their ideologies are. Also he doesn't seem eager to jump into conflicts for no reason

And war against Mexico?? That's some dumbass shit to say. US is Mexico's most important trading partner by quite a margin, they can't afford to not keep a good relationship

So funny

[pizzafliptofakie]

People supporting Trump because he's "funny" is what's wrong with this country.

[SFblah]

Some Trump quotes from the past few days.

"We won with young. We won with old. We won with highly educated. We won with poorly educated. I love the poorly educated."

"I've met much tougher people than Ted Cruz. He is like a baby compared to some of the people I have to deal with. He is like a little baby: soft, weak, little baby by comparison."

"Mitt Romney, who was one of the dumbest and worst candidates in the history of Republican politics, is now pushing me on tax returns. Dope!" - I know he's calling Romney a dope but I love how it sounds when I imagine he used dope sarcastically.

"We won with young. We won with old. We won with highly educated. We won with poorly educated. I love the poorly educated."

that's up there with "and i assume some are good people" after calling mexican immigrants rapists and murderers

It's not often that you see people in those positions break ranks like that.

Im dont know what to do anymore.

We gotta try this, with today's technology. Abolition of markets and buisiness, self-organised production by the workforce for the workforce.

I agree that some form of communism would be much healthier than the system we live in now, but for it to work it has to happen organically and realistically turning peoples mindsets towards that kind of thinking is going to take hundreds of years.

whomever gets elected makes very little difference because corruption has been institutionalized. the economic elites rule -- it doesn't matter which candidate gets to sit in the oval office. they either do their bidding or their career and life will be ruined. democracy is illusory.

can't tell if your trolling or if you really believe that mccain would have got the affordable care act passed.

[close]

maybe you're trolling? i'm speaking about the big picture, where it seems like you're focused on a single piece of the puzzle.

it's not a big picture thing, i'm asserting that obama and trump prove that noam chomsky was wrong. the people can guide what's happening.

[SFblah]

So who else saw John Oliver last night? Genius.

Sorry, bro. Im a direct by-product of Soviet system (born 1987 in Leningrad), did not really work for us. Then again, nothing did.

damn, he got destroyed

Trump hasn't won the primary yet. If he wins the primary he basically hands the Dem's another 4 years in office. I don't recall in in my life more than 8 years of a Dem. president consecutively.

Watching this mockery of the political process just shows the world how fast and hard the US is falling from grace.

Bernie is the only one calling out the bullshit. People know it, but they aren't hearing it. If he were to win the white house you could actually have HOPE for change. Unless you continue to vote the same idiots into the senate and congress then it doesn't matter who gets to sit in the hot seat.

The vice chair... that is big, or it should be. She made a decent point!

Having really read a lot on the matter the Soviet system retracted from socialism in 50s. They implemented capitalist elements just because technology wasnt good enough to organize the production efficiently in a socialist way. It was just a matter of bad timing. Marx refering to his utopia he admitted that the advancement of technology is what will make it possible. Being an electronics engineer with background on computer science, I know that they had to organize the economy with very complex optimization algorithms and because of lack of computers then they did everything by hand. In 50s they just gave up and thought they should compete with the US by doing a mixed system. After 50s USSR was socialism with capitalist elements, while the rest of the world was capitalism with socialist elements. Both failed in my opinion but socialism can definately happen with today's computer science, and pave the way for communism.

If Trump wins, he should make a reality TV show with Arnold.. Would be a great thing

All this wall building shit is just free advertising, this is his only chance and politicians always go crazy before the election

Very hard to speculate. Would Imperial Russia have done better? I dont know. Did we blow the only chance we had in the 90's? Beats me...One thing is for sure: whoever replaces the cunt Putin will be even worse. So much wasted potential...

[saucy ragu]

Please vote in the primaries and the general election if you're of age. http://www.rockthevote.com/register-to-vote/?referrer=https://www.google.com/ (You may have to register as a Republican or Democrat in order to vote in the primaries, check for your state's voter rules. i.e. in NY, you must be registered as a Democrat to vote for either Hillary or Bernie in the primary).

If you're truly undecided, this short quiz (10 minutes to take on average) may help you find the candidate you align most with: http://www.isidewith.com/

The fact that Trump or Cruz have made it this far is horrifying.

I do believe socialism, capitalism and the blah blah blah have all lost their terminology.

Last time I checked. Your social security card, means your a card caring socialist. As you learn in sociology, its about how we live together. Almost every country has social programs, all but few have capitalist programs, many still have dictatorships and there is Cuba and North Korea, which are considered communist which is social enslavement. What are the differences? I live in what America calls a socialist society. We can hunt with guns, but we don't need an AK to do so. We have a better healthcare system and education system than most countries and we get to vote. Just like the US, some things may not be so perfect but we don't have near the issues the US does.

This is the kind of thing that makes Bernie so great to so many. He would have my vote.
