I am of the opinion that capitalism and democracy have both failed the people are large. Both systems favor a privileged minority while the majority gets to suck on their thumbs.

You're gonna have to explain the democracy part of this post

Gerrymandering, Donald Trump, etc


America is not truly a Democracy. Especially in terms of presidential election we are a republic in that you are voting for a delegate to vote for president, but in most places that delegate is not required to vote the way they pledged prior to you voting for them. So the presidential election is not Democratic at all.

No she didn't to the first part


she admits that she did in her essay, though, 'out of fear of losing him'

That isn't consenting. That's being manipulated.


You are 100% incorrect, at least in the abstract as I didn't read up on everything, but `fear of losing` does not qualify as manipulation. All adults are presumed to be fully accountable and able to pursue their own desires. Any person at any time is allowed to put conditions on continued interactions with another person, it is only when those conditions come with a caveat of harm for failure to comply that it is manipulative.

Good:
I can't stay in this relationship if we don't X.

Bad:
If we don't X then I'm going to tell your family about that time you Y'd.

Businesses usually have a sign that says "we have the right to refuse services to anyone"

Good on this, little shops that are family owned don't deserve to be put out of business because of some asshat who crys and complains.


You have the right to refuse service individually, but any attempts to apply that across a class, protected or not, almost always will, and generally should, be rebuked.

Ruling basically amounts to letting the guy get out from under all the fines, but that is it. It felt more like a pity decision.

"OK snowflake, we know they hurt your feelings, so we will negate your fines. You still have to go back and place nice with people different than you though."

Congress.

It wasn't just Republicans - the Democrats had a big majority in both houses back then.


Lying.


amazing response


Because claiming a big majority in the Senate is an oft repeated, easily dis-proven, and yet still believed by many falsehood when they only had a caucus of 60 for four months and that means they had to appease even the most moderate Democrat to get anything through.

TopicWhy do millennials want to live in cities so much?

This topic is just everyone arguing about what they prefer instead of answering the actual topic. I'll spoil life for you and tell you though.

Millennials are still in their 20's and early 30's, affluent people in that age range have always predominantly flocked to large cities. There are more diverse opportunities and more nightlife. People would generally migrate to the suburbs once married, but the increasing average age for marriage is why Millennials seem to be more city oriented.

Hopefully that was a contributor report or some such unverified content, because that is a useless comparison. You can't really use median unless the companies are of comparative structure.

If the Dems take control of the House I'd say that it is likely we get Articles of Impeachment. For him to actually get impeached there would need to be a smoking gun to turn enough Reps in the Senate.
