Yup. And I imagine in that situation many conservatives would be looking to overhaul the electoral college just as liberals are doing now. That is the nature of petty partisan politics. It's not...

Sure looked like that was what you were doing. Why even bring up disenfranchisement in a discussion that's not about disenfranchisement?



That's literally what it was designed to do. To act as...

Are you comparing checks and balances to disenfranchisement?

No. Balance between the minority and the majority. Congress is popular vote, President is not. Each checks the other.

Your vote doesn't count less than others. It's one person, one vote for both the senate and the house. Our government was built to have checks and balances. It's not a pure democracy nor is it a pure...

Different regions tend to have different interests. Urban areas tend to have different priorities from rural areas etc. etc. Whether you like it or not, humans are social creatures. There are...

In other words, you want the whole damn pie. If that's what it is, just say it. The scales tipped in your favor isn't enough, you want them all way on your side. You have no use for checks and...

Yeah, uh, that's kind of his appeal lol.

That's because populated urban areas are represented in the house and the senate because they are elected by popular vote. If 2/3rds of our federal government is elected by popular vote (which favors...

Different regions tend to have different interests. Urban voters prioritize different issues from rural voters. Etc. etc. Again, basic high school civics should have taught you this if you had...

First of all, that's not how it works. Second of all, the idea was that the House be elected by popular vote, Senate elected by state legislatures, President elected by delegates. Decent balance....

Sounds like somebody needs to retake civics lol. Popular vote doesn't necessarily mean fair representation. If Presidents were elected purely by popular vote, then a handful of areas with the highest...

Well, let's see what the psychologists have to say about desensitization as it relates to long-term use of video games:

"Researchers in Germany used functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI)...

And they decided not to sell them. They decided to take the loss and to not sell them because they felt that their profits would suffer in the long-run from it. Whoopty shit, that's capitalism dude....

Unless you have a career in the stock market, you aren't paying for this.



Indignant because I called you out on being a pathetic trust fund kid that had shit handed to him but doesn't want...

I don't have any student loans. I went to trade school, not college.



Semantics. It is a free grant, but it is not the government handing out free cash willy nilly. Whatever we want to call it....

Whatever strokes your ego.

And what was I "hiding" from? You? :laugh:

Whatever. You call it hiding, I call it living a life outside my computer screen. To each their own.

Nice opinion. I disagree.



Not really. It's a grant, it has to be used for a singular purpose. They do not get cash.



Or....maybe, just maybe, their parents don't have 10k+ just sitting...

Stated it in that manner, yeah it is.



I didn't go into hiding. Some of us can't spend all day every day on a fucking political site. ;)

All this time and you haven't grown up even a smidge. How much longer until your 13th birthday? Maybe puberty will straighten you out.

Ahhh yup. I was kinda surprised CFM was on this side of the gun debate, thought he became a Democrat while I was away. But there it is, his messiah flip flopped, naturally so must he. But I'm the one...

Long time no talk, buddy! Looks like you are still just as arrogant and bull-headed as when I left.
