with the way the republican congressmen and base act, he probably already is. we will never again have a democrat president who wont be impeached asap.

The way the DEMOCRATS act? The Democrats are the ones trying to set the precedent of making "Because we don't like him" an impeachable offense. Democrats love to have things all their own way but hate being held to their own standards.

What always pissed me off was that you could capture an enemy Mauser Kar 98K, but the Mauser with a scope didn't use the same ammo. Same gun, same cartridge.

And why is the Swedish government under fire for covering up the problem?

Did you not read my link? They aren't covering anything up

Well, you have a link from the Swedish government saying that the Swedish government isn't covering anything up. That's just a SLIGHT conflict of interest.

Were those slaves worse off in their bunk houses with their provided meals, or were they worse off in the jungles of 19th century Angola or Zaire, where the standard of living was essentially stone age?

The problem is you've got adopted kids living in shitty situations because to their adoptive parents they represent tax credits, not children.

Unless your finances are stupid simple, like a single W2 and zero investment, 1099, ANYTHING else, paying an accountant a couple hundred bucks almost always results in a bigger return than had you filed yourself, because they know the ins and outs. Accountants pay for themselves.

It's so funny talking with people who took ECON101 at the community college and think they're Peter Schiff.

If I own a business and you work for me, and I realize that my business will work fine without you and I fire you, I no longer have to pay your wages. I have more profit. Your wages were cutting into my profit. Without you, I have more profit. I was quite literally, by the simple definition of what "share" means, sharing my profit with you.

the whole point is that they're not getting enough of it

If you don't think you're being paid enough, tell your employer to pay you more, or go find a job that pays you what you think you're worth.

Uh, profit is literally the difference between expenses and net income. Babby's first economics .

*gross income.

Babby's first econ lesson? Profit IS net income.

I love when people think that explaining how wages work in a capitalist enterprise is the same thing as making an argument in favour of that system. makes for extremely productive conversation

That's only... sort of how it works though. Employee wages cut into profit. If employees were paid less, there would be more profit for the owner. So employees are indeed sharing in the profit.

Oh wow wait a second, you're actually of the belief that a business should take its net profit and divvy it up among the employees???

Where does the money come from that they use to pay their expenses?

A soffit? No.

A docket? No.

A prophet? Close.

Their profit? Yes...

While we're on this topic, what's with women and the stigma against unemployed men? They'd rather date someone who's having his labor exploited than someone who went his own way?

What's the stigma with deadbeats? Let's think for a second...

Or how about the owners actually share the profits and pay people for what they produce?

They do share the profits, it's called a "salary."

Crime in Sweden has been decreasing over the past 20 years, even after they took in refugees. Islamic crime has never really been a problem in Sweden (besides the occasional isolated incident)

So the rape epidemic caused by migrants is... a made up thing?

The worker entered a mutual contract with their employer and is receiving the compensation they agreed to. If they do not like that wage, they are free to leave. The employer also assumes all of the risk. You also need to realize that most businesses operate on pretty thin profit margins.

If you don't think it's fair, then become the capitalist and employ people.

I still think something was fishy with the Bill Cosby one.

They had the dirt on Cosby for years, they were just waiting for a reason to use it. Look at Cosby- he was a conservative African American man who was very critical of shortcomings in the African American community, and they decided to bury him when all this Black Lives Matter rioting was going on. They didn't want him damaging the perceived validity of the movement with his views. I believe in coincidence, but I believe in character assassination more.

If there was proof of a Russian collusion, the Democrats would have used it against Trump and won the 2016 election. They found nothing because there isn't anything to find, in fact they've turned up evidence of the DEMOCRATS working with the Russians.

All they've got at this point is a guy doing a business deal with some Ukrainians a decade ago, and that somehow ties Trump to Russia in 2016. Yeah, no.

Millennials have done a pretty impressive amount of damage to the country when you consider that we've only been allowed to vote since the 2002 mid term elections. But no, all these social problems that were decades in the making, totally our fault. Totally.
