HOLD ON there, chief. You used the phrase "mass separation" first. Dark and I both used the phrase "the separation" because we were talking about what happens at the border to people arrested. What's happening to families isn't anything new because that's how the laws are structured. That is objectively true. You can argue that under Trump it's happening more often, but you CAN'T argue that the policy of separating kids from their parents is something new under Trump because that's objectively not true. --- "History Is Much Like An Endless Waltz.

You must be confusing me with someone else. My stance on the immigration issue has ALWAYS been that if you take issue with what happens when the laws are enforced, then we should get congress to change them. Having government arbitrarily not enforce laws we don't like is the absolute dumbest way to run a government. I support Trump's shift to requiring the federal government actually enforce our laws, but I also support congress making new laws to change how things are going down, and I think we as a nation have collectively given up on the idea of using our government as it was designed which is causing way more problems than its fixing. --- "History Is Much Like An Endless Waltz.

| s0nicfan 07/24/18 5:12:15 PM #82 | Eat More Beef posted... would it not cut down on the costs to the government if people can assess and fix their own problems that are related to their household? This gets into a much larger topic, but basically you're asking the question that is the fundamental divide between republicans and democrats. A democrat would argue that the benefit of such knowledge has an intangible social benefit that outweighs the costs. A republican would argue that government oversight would actually drive UP costs in the way that insurance has. The problem is that, absent government support, people have to think really hard about what they believe the value of something is. If they had to pay $1,000 to learn how to fix a sink, they're going to determine for themselves if that knowledge is worth that much. If the government pays for it, people see it as "free" even though it's coming out of taxes. In turn, that place teaching you how to fix a sink will find the maximum amount government will pay for, and charge that instead. To you, it's still free, but the actual cost of the program is now $5K or $10K, because "why not"? No politician would dare take the "free thing" away even though the costs have skyrocketed, and most people would probably not fix their own sink anyway. Since there's no way to bring costs down, the market is effectively ruined. EDIT: For example, your point: "Make education free, and you'll have less people relying on the government to deal with their problems, ergo, the government can use their coffers to better deal with the problems assualting humanity." You're saying that educating people will save the government money by having the government... pay to give everyone an education. They would be using their coffers to pay for the education. Unless you can show that people learning to fix their own plumbing has an actual financial benefit to the country as a whole (or any number of degrees/certifications), all that you've done is turned your money into "free money" through taxes and stopped caring about the actual value of the free thing. EDIT X2: And that's not to say that no oversight is better than total oversight... just that it's a very complicated problem with a lot of moving parts that people tend to gloss over because they think "more free stuff" automatically benefits society. --- "History Is Much Like An Endless Waltz.

It completely kills the point of it, the vast majority of people will barely if at all use what they learn, and it dis-incentivizes blue collar and trades which we need desperately. So the solution is to make blue collar financially attractive. Show a bunch of kids that they can start making $60K right out of apprenticeship a full 3 years before their peers graduate with hundreds of thousands of dollars of debt with no obvious job guarantees and suddenly the kids who pick up a trade are the "smart ones".

You're thinking of "The Tipping Point" by Gladwell. The problem is the thoery he's referencing (broken window theory) has since been proven bunk. As to your other question, "How would you propose these things happen that she's asking for", it really depends on which item. For something like, say, higher education, I'd argue we shouldn't have universal higher education. It completely kills the point of it, the vast majority of people will barely if at all use what they learn, and it dis-incentivizes blue collar and trades which we need desperately. For other things like "Housing as a human right" it really depends on how you define it. Saying home ownership is a right is insane, but if you're arguing that we should try to eliminate homelessness or work towards a more effective shelter system... that I can get behind. Then there are the functionally impossible actions, like "100% renewables" which boil down to "I promise to catch rainbows in jars and eliminate the need to poop where the raw numbers make it impossible unless you can convince most people to use candles after dark. The issue is the list is a set of vague promises for "good things" without enough specifics to even really dig into the "hows". Of the full set, only "paid family care" and "improve campaign finance" actually come close to actionable and in both can be done with little to no cost through bills to ban things or incentives to businesses that provide child care. --- "History Is Much Like An Endless Waltz.

It's not a bad game by any means, I just don't have incentives to go back and continue playing it though. In case you didn't know, New Game+ has you play the game through another character's perspective and goes beyond the ending of the first playthrough and has massive plot revelations, and NG++ is yet another character you play as starting with where NG and NG+ ended. There's SIGNIFICANT reason to go back to the game if you've beaten it, because at least the next 2 playthroughs are like completely different games. --- "History Is Much Like An Endless Waltz.

| s0nicfan 07/24/18 3:05:09 PM #72 | Eat More Beef posted... I find this rather funmy because those against her (most anyway) had no problem with Donnie's pure bullshit policies. He never once said anything of substance as to how he wished to achieve the platforms he set out, yet it was good, great, grand enough then. Now, someone makes baseless promises and it's all "How will you do it? That's my real concern." That's a fair assessment. Republicans are often the party of "how are we going to pay for it" until they have their own policies. That being said, I appreciate someone at least asking the question, so I don't think they should be dinged for that explicitly. I think the difference between Trump's policies and hers is that most of his were one-off projects like the wall, or taking away things that cost money in the first place. Social Security and state pensions in the era of aging baby boomers has shown that policies designed to give everyone (present AND future) something without a firm method of payment can only result in disasters long-term when the money runs out, so you need a bit more planning to justify them because once you add them, it's basically impossible to remove them. --- "History Is Much Like An Endless Waltz.
