The fact is that ... By: ggadguy. on 24 Jun 11, 21:12:54 The fact is that the most of the Republicans are increasing spending in most of the programs, including all of the ones you mentioned. Nobody is going to cut anything, and the D's are afraid of tax increases. Both parties want to monetize the debt with further Quantitative Easing which means the money you make will buy far less.

I want to take pot? for pain, my body's systems don't get destroyed and I feel healthy happy and less pain....On those pills I get whacked out of my mind...I just dont understand whats wrong with me, why I have such terrible reactions to prescription medications.

Our products ... By: exenrontexas. on 26 May 12, 04:00:56 Our products pipeline carried regular gasoline, premium gasoline and propane at different times. I do not know what method they used to keep the liquid products separate although pigging pipelines was a common practice. Pigging is sending a solid plug through the pipe to clean out waste? by products such as water which often accumulates. The "pig" often carries a transmitter so that they can track the pigs progress. I worked for the natural gas pipeline group of that company.
"Typically products ... By: henleythecat. on 26 May 12, 03:36:20 "Typically products pipelines never? carry exclusive products."
I didn't know that. That business case I was making came from some oil futures traders, so I guess there where some fine points that were missing.
I think we are in agreement regarding the dangers of building the pipeline, regardless of the business case made by those who are promoting it.
Thanks.
Typically products ... By: exenrontexas. on 26 May 12, 03:29:24 Typically products pipelines never carry exclusive products. They have one pipeline and then different products at different times. I worked for a big energy company that ran one from Texas to Iowa. There are several refineries already in operation in the nothern midwest like Chicago. It seems to make no sense to transport dirty oil across the breadbasket of the world and a fresh water supply that covers five states & supplies millions of people.There are plenty? of diesel in Asia not just cars.
Not sure why you ... By: henleythecat. on 26 May 12, 02:10:11 Not sure why you think what I wrote was "spin". I agree with your statement re: oil tar being remarkably dirty & the risk to fresh water sources.?
Most of the diesel cars in the world are in Europe, not Asia. It is cheaper to build a pipeline south then west across the Rockies. There is already existing refinery capacity in TX. No matter how you refine crude, you are going to get multiple products, and pipelines for each product cost more then a single one for crude.
I didn't make this up.

That is ... By: exenrontexas. on 26 May 12, 01:55:00 That is unimaginable spin and here is? why. IF they are going to build a pipeline anyhow it is much cheap to build a refined products pipeline as many already exist. I disagree with you markets statement since the planned market is ASIA, not Europe, specifically China. Big OIL follows the money and the money is in Asia. The Canadian oil tar is remarkably dirty and remarkably toxic and if they have a spills like Central Nebraska it would wipe out the largest underground source of fresh water.

"No one has ... By: henleythecat. on 25 May 12, 23:28:19 "No one has explained why the dirty Canadian oil has to be refined in the Texas"
Two reasons.
1. The Canadians have a limited market in the mid-west and can only charge what that small market will pay. With the oil going to TX, it gives them access to other markets at higher prices (Mid-West will have to pay up).
2. US Oil companies want to export finished products to Europe, where they can charge a higher price then in the US, then shelter? the profits off-shore.

National security? ... By: mrbhave. on 25 May 12, 00:13:11 National security? How about personal security? Freedom from restraint is an individual right.
Social safety net? The hyperinflation we're about to experience, because of statists in both parties racking up welfare/milfare bills we can't afford, will remove any illusion of a safety net.

Your theory implies ... By: mrbhave. on 24 May 12, 22:57:28 Your theory implies that society? only ever improves, and historical ideas are generally worse. Are you suggesting that the TSA, domestic drones, and disappearing of American citizens is BETTER than the past? That's ridiculous.
Why only call out BAD historical examples? How about sme good ones? How about no income tax, no FED, DEA, or TSA? There are several right there.

By: AKSBSU. on 23 May 12, 20:20:13 Companies like Bain have invested a bit and then sucked more cash out and ran in some deals, leaving the workers unemployed and the government covering part of the pensions. However, that's not the? only type of outcome of their deals. I'd like to see stricter regulation end the way they screw some companies, but they do not always wreck the joint when they get involved.

They can be amoral, bloodsucking bastards for sure, but not every outcome is a complete disaster for the businesses they buy and sell. Sometimes they can improve the situation and keep a business from going under. Point out the negatives the corporate shills? try to hide, but be sensible and truthful about it.

Not as strong as I would want personally, but having a vulture capitalist born of privilege with no concept of reality. Their is at least a chance that we the people can influence Obama as OWS has had an impact. The immutable Reich wing? is particularly dangerous because they have no new ideas, they just want things to remain typically the same which is unsustainable.

By: BlackWolfVulcan. on 23 May 12, 02:57:10 @waterhead001 I think that thom is just too old school meaning supporting the democratic party is all he knows, and bernie would be commiting political suicide to criticize obama. And that should remind us that he's just another politician. As for thom, well you can't teach an old dog? new tricks.
I think if he and ... By: waterhead001. on 23 May 12, 02:50:07 I think if he and Bernie Sanders said Obama? is an agent of Wall Street that would help the OWS. I honestly dont know why they don't. If they did it would also expose Romney and their is no difference between the two. Then people would see romney is no better than obama. Your awareness is encouraging.
I really wish thom ... By: BlackWolfVulcan. on 23 May 12, 02:39:27 I really wish thom would stop endorsing obama.
Obama is just another corporate shill? same as romney. Ows is great because it exposes obama as a puppet of wallstreet. People keep saying "obama is still better than romney". Remember that a lesser evil is still an evil, and an evil in the white house will lead us to a hell nome of us has the stomach for.

I cannot possibly vote for Obama (and certainly not Romney). Obama forfeited any chance of getting my vote when he signed the NDAA. Game over. I'm voting for Gary Johnson even though I despise some of his ideas about taxes? in particular.
Thom knows that ... By: starkweather444. on 22 May 12, 23:07:17 Thom knows that Obama didn't end the war in Iraq. Actually GWB ended it with the SOFA. In fact the Obama admin. was pushing to continue the war until the Iraqi's said no way, get out. So all Obama did was replace troops with private contractors accountable to no one. This fear mongering on the part of Thom with the SC, is very? tired. Nice try.

I had a similar talk with? a Libertarian who thought the EPA was necessary even though it's typically a department libertarians want to get rid of.
The only reason why he thought having an EPA is a good idea and why Mike Riggs thinks a social safety net is a good idea is that they have *PERSONALLY* heard good arguments for it.
Libertarianism is just a reaction.... Reasonable people can agree on specific issues when presented with facts.

There are many different ways to define it and very different opinions on how to implement it. He's a very moderate liberal. As for the actual crackdown on marijuana I too belive this needs to end.

The main problem is, coal would take over the power production because wind and solar isn't advanced enough to take the load.

I believe that marriage = one man + one woman (optionally "till death do us part"), and that everything else is a legal union with the same rights and priviliges as the above.

Seems that this issue is too nuanced to many people, who would completely reject ANY legal unions between same-sex couples.

I also don't know what a "tea party nation" is, but if these "tea party nations" have higher levels of unionization and higher levels of social equality, why should they not be cited?

Yes, prices would ... By: donteatthefishsticks. on 15 May 12, 10:25:05 Yes, prices would go up, and productivity might even go? down, but unionism is about something deeper than numbers; it's about dignity, and freedom - it's about having a say in the conditions of your employment, and, fundamentally, about challenging the authority of the employer. Union fatcats? Of course they exist, but so do corporate fatcats. There are good unions and bad ones - at their best they are democratic and focus on the idea that "the people who work in the mills ought to own them."

You're pretending ... By: megagagnon1. on 15 May 12, 00:51:12 You're pretending that employers pay for the pay and benefits of their employees. Not true. The people who buy their? goods and or services pay those wages. Those are mostly working class people. Unions don't help the working class. Imagine every single worker joined a union. That would mean prices of everything would go up - not only because of higher pay, but also because of the union fatcats with their bloated salaries and benefits. The only way unions work is when only a fraction r unionistas
Unions are a ... By: donteatthefishsticks. on 15 May 12, 00:41:55 Unions are a necessary reaction to the power of employers and are needed to exert influence against the tendency of wealth to? seek and gain power. The neoliberal view of the world is that it should be run by the people who own it - unions oppose this view and, fundamentally are about democracy and a non-propertarian conception of "freedom" - worker's rights, the idea that you should be in control of your own work, if not autonomously then democratically.

The cost of the ... By: Roonskii. on 16 May 12, 06:01:06 The cost of the Iraq war war are estimated at 4,000,000,000,000 dollars. If you don't create enemies with that kind of killing power, you are mistaken. Obama spending, if you want? to call it that, spending bills start in the House, is for mops and buckets. Who would have mcGoon and sarah palin nominated to the supreme court and how much would a war with Iran cost the poor and middle class in this country? You don't have an argument here other than against yourself. Wise up.

If you disliked ... By: megagagnon1. on 15 May 12, 19:19:08 If you disliked Bush, you should dislike Obama just as much. He's as? much a hawk, there's no difference in their foreign policies, and as for domestic policies Obama just sends the money flow to whoever gives the biggest contributions. And don't forget the $65 billion pissed away by Obama on alternative energy boondoggles.
You're not ... By: judyleasugar97. on 15 May 12, 15:35:02 You're not seriously comparing Obama to? Bush? Obama has ended one of the wars Bush started and set a date to end the other.

Bush was a terrible ... By: megagagnon1. on 15 May 12, 09:50:48 Bush was a terrible president. Obama continued all? of Bush's policies and added some bad policies of his own. Obama made himself sound like a dove - and yet increased military spending and activity every year he was in office. You have some thinking to do, Obama-drone.
It's not crony ... By: Roonskii. on 15 May 12, 05:58:24 It's not crony capitalism, it is capitalism, where profit is put over people and our planet. Maybe your efforts would be more well spent attacking lobbyist for those companies manufacturing those drones, the lobbyist selling them, and the oil interest continuing these wars. If you don't like war vote to defund them, there is election coming up. During? the last one, Obama's opponent was chanting bomb, bomb, bomb, Iran. He was the smart one out of that failed duo. You have some thinking to do.
Obama is a peacenik ... By: megagagnon1. on 15 May 12, 03:42:52 Obama is a peacenik? Not quite. He's spent more on the military? than Bush, expanded the drone program, sign away our 4th amend rights (NDAA), not to mention what he's doing in The Sudan. Haven't heard? Yes, we've got drones flying around in The Sudan now. The Pakistan parliament unanimously voted to tell Obama to stop the drones strikes - and Obama ignored them and drones on. He's never prosecuted a banker, and half his administration are lobbyists or banksters. Crony capitalism works for you?

By: Roonskii. on 15 May 12, 03:17:51 My vote goes to the party that keeps my family employed, drives wages up, and is for providing minimum of healthcare to keep the bodies from piling up in the streets. joe lieberman is not a democrat and neither is ben nelson both create? obstacles for the recovery for the American people along with every single fucking right wing war mongering piece of shit.

So by how much ... By: Roonskii. on 14 May 12, 22:42:44 So by how much should we cut the? military budget? In half? Second, why are you giving aid and comfort to the enemy with your comments?
They should convict ... By: megagagnon1. on 14 May 12, 19:40:23 They should convict Obama, a far more egregious war criminal than Bush, Cheney et al. Drone killings are against the Geneva Conventions - ununiformed combantants - and Obama has drone killed more than 4x as many as Bush? jr.

This is waste time ... By: silverton7777. on 14 May 12, 18:27:19 This is waste time because the system is broke and need must focus on prepper stuff. Once these system breaks down? meaning your little welfare check stops comming we will see who wins.

By: silverton7777. on 14 May 12, 18:24:57 I do home school and use private school, however you liberals want take that away and force pro- gay guidelines that are forced through state coffers. Meaning gay books that show man on man to 7 year old kids I can show the documents if you would like. Once the system? falls this country is going clean house of the Barney Frank Pediphiles who prey on young boys. These sick individuals sell gay curriculum that would make the majority of world sick. There is no difference between pediphiles/gays
First, you can home ... By: judyleasugar97. on 14 May 12, 12:50:10 First, you can home school your kids. No one is forcing kids to not say "dad" and "mom" in the public schools. You have a right to believe in Jesus, but this is a free country and other people can choose not to believe if they want. If you think you should be able to force people into a particular religious path, you are the one who's a? fascist, not the Democrats.
The problem with ... By: silverton7777. on 14 May 12, 11:59:11 The problem with liberals is they never bring true solutions table only more pork like the Republicans. The solution is Jesus and not liberals like Burnie who agree with gay marriage and other liberal programs. Hes clocking as a Independent who's a liberal. These liberals want to force my children into public schools and teach them not say dad and mom because that could be affend some fug packer. It really doesn't make a difference any more 17 trillion the system is done? America will fall.

By: ggadguy. on 24 Jun 11, 21:12:54
The fact is that the most of the Republicans are increasing spending in most of the programs, including all of the ones you mentioned. Nobody is going to cut anything, and the D's are afraid of tax increases. Both parties want to monetize the debt with further Quantitative Easing which means the money you make will buy far less. Inflation is the hidden tax, and they've been doing it to us since 1913 since? the private Federal Reserve was created by the crony capitalist bankers.

Bernie Sanders is right they are going to cut all the welfare and entitlement programs but they are not going to cut the police, military, pentagon, crony capitalist corporations etc. because they are getting an INCREASE in pay while the American people are taking? more than just a haircut for this bullshit.
