Youre an anti-Semite if you dont want to hand Israel over $3 billion per year in welfare! https://www.haaretz.com/us-news/senate-passes-bill-to-enshrine-military-aid-package-to-israel-into-law-1.6340748 The U.S. Senate passed a measure that would codify into law the $38 billion defense aid package for Israel over 10 years that was negotiated in the final days of the Obama administration. The U.S.-Israel Security Assistance Authorization Act of 2018 approved Wednesday gives the defense package the imprimatur of Congress, which would keep any future president from reneging. The $38 billion deal negotiated in 2016 is the most generous ever to Israel. The American Israel Public Affairs Committee in a statement said the act seeks to ensure that Israel has the means to defend itself, by itself, against growing and emerging threats including Irans presence close to Israels northern border. Israel is lobbying the United States and Russia to oust Iran from Syria, where it has assisted the Assad regime in crushing a civil war. The act also expands a stockpile of weapons that the United States keeps in Israel. Israel may access the stockpile in wartime. It also urges space research cooperation between Israel and the United States. Obviously our founding fathers would have wanted this. --- "Those who need leaders are not qualified to choose them." -Michael Malice |

This was a formal Oxford style debate where both participants had ample time to make their point with no interruptions.

| Topic | Why do we still have government backed student loans? |
| tennisdude818 11/30/19 11:49:15 AM #6 | Because they enable schools to raise tuition indefinitely. Students cant escape via bankruptcy, and kids get access to loans regardless of the economic value of their degree because Uncle Sam backs them.

| Topic | Richard Wolff (socialist) loses capitalism vs socialism debate |
| tennisdude818 11/30/19 10:42:34 AM #1 | https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=YJQSuUZdcV4 Its long, but a good watch. Richard Wolff lost the debate very badly per the pre and post debate votes (viewable at the end of the video). About 20% of the undecideds voted against Richard after the debate, and Richard lost a couple of the votes he started with. The TLDW is that Gene actually read Richards book and explored how tedious worker led industry would be to maintain. He also explained that if socialists wanted worker led companies they can start their own rather than rely on the state to seize the assets for them, but actual workers just arent socialists at the end of the day. Richards strategy was to use story telling rather than arguments. That probably goes over well when preaching to the choir, but it fell flat when he had an actual opponent. The fact that Gene is a former socialist probably helped him. Anyway, the Soho Forum has interesting long form debates that are entertaining when you have a long drive or something. --- "Those who need leaders are not qualified to choose them." -Michael Malice |

Because she doesn't want to keep doing these regime change wars? She is literally running on not pouring gas on the fire Bush started and Obama and Trump continued. Useful idiots are saying that you dont have to work for Putin to be his asset, you just have to endorse policies that help him. Because Putin doesnt like our regime change wars in some instances, the Russian asset slur is used liberally against anti war types.
