I tried not to make rules for this community but y'all wylin'. I'll keep it quick and to the point:
-
Mildly biased headlines and articles are fine, but please do not share opinion pieces or strongly slanted articles here.
-
Reporting content that does not break those rules prohibited.
-
Baiting and drama farming is prohibited. If you're not sure whether or not you're in this category, ask yourself if what you're about to post or comment adds to the discussion of the topic at hand, or if you are trying to get a rise out of someone, make bad-faith accusations against one's character, etc. There's some leeway here because I have a sense of humor though, so don't let this rule scare you.

@realcaseyrollins @Sirpantangelini they can stay out of economic policy as far as I'm concerned.
Also, there are far too many federal crimes.
And our international policy for several administrations has been "give us your shit or we'll bomb you into the ground and take it ". Let's have less of that please.
@chromeratt @realcaseyrollins
My responses just got eaten by the internet.
I'm all for a fair tax federally.
Solely tariffs and a flat tax on new products.
If a heroin addict is forced to be clean for 6 months because they are on an island with no heroin, that's ultimately good for them, even if they go back.
@chromeratt @realcaseyrollins
Most of your responses are vague and resemble an addict explaining their need for, whatever they are addicted to.
Like... legislate laws...
Come on dude, you are better than that.
@Sirpantangelini @realcaseyrollins and most of the "laws" were made by the department of X, Y or Z of the executive branch. If the Congress actually had to write and vote on ALL the rules, there would be far fewer of them.
So yeah, keep funding all the things you said (minus economic policy) and let the others chill for a while. There's some savings for you.
@Sirpantangelini @realcaseyrollins And if those people working at the Department of Something or Other are really doing valuable work, they should be able to find work in the private sector.
@chromeratt @Sirpantangelini @realcaseyrollins
Lefties often praise taxing but then they try to do all their business in a way to avoid any taxation.
Me, I think all taxation is theft.
And since nearly all taxes are used to pay interest to dajews privately owned banks to get new joden confetti I wonder if the whole taxation thing isn't just a scam?
Oh good grief. SMH. Changing policy is not the same as ragequitting governing!
None of these issues are solved by shutting down the government, they will only be fixed by new reforms and new legislation, AFTER the government is up and running again.
