Can someone explain to me how the filibuster is a good thing? And I mean the 60 vote senate crap.
If someone wants to fill a buster... Make. Them. Speak.
I don't mind if it's the real thing, but the 60-vote thing is stupid.

I am against the death panalty.
Is it a deterant? Sure. But the private nature of it blunts the effectiveness. They should be public to have proper effect.
But, it's the public aspect that's real important.
I say bring back the stockades.
That's going to be far more useful than privately killing people.
And move the stockades around. Put them infront of shopping centers, supermarkets, parks...
Alternatively, we could have chain gangs march through the cities. Same idea, put punishment in full view of the public, but possibly harder to secure.

This is just funny, but I question such a high ranking person being so exposed on the street.

Dunno what this is about.
Politics? Entertainment?
I said before that I didn't agree with their public reasoning to pull the show, but it really looks like late night shows have been dying and hemmoraging money. Especially on broadcast.
Or is Disney just trying to push a narrative dispite their losses? Or maybe somebody got a huge pay cut. Contracts? Who knows?

Zaps, likes, and comments seem to have disapeared after the lattest amethyst updates.
My notification history is gone too.
Can anyone see my posts anymore? I'm not sure I'll see replies even if you do.
If this is true, was Brexit the beginning of the fall of the EU? Are we witnessing the end?

Michigan house republicans, "we will dramatically increase per pupil funding and let the local communities use it as they see fit"
Senate Democrats (plus Democrats at large)
"They want to take away free meal programs from the students! What devils they are!"

Mostly linking this for myself, but #politics should have it if it doesn't already.
Never thought of it this way before, but queing is what killed the concept of "community" in multiplayer games, #mmo, and #gaming in general.

quoted below to avoid going to reddit:
"People's tendency to depersonalize people online in games is to blame IMO. With systems that place everyone in a large pool and dispatch everyone to internal servers, it's no wonder that people treat other people like AI bots when realistically the only difference between players and bots are communications in game that people now ignore in favor of Discord.
Imagine if everyone went to different but completely identical high schools every day to practice sports, and every day the had a nearly unique team of brand new people to play with. Imagine the incentive to communicate with them is tedious and bordering on pointless, and you swap these teams every practice game (and in the case of making a parallel with games, these games would be VERY short). It's no wonder that people would treat other humans as completely transient and treat communication or even the desire to exert energy to make a more cohesive team as a waste when the value of one team or game is very small.
Local servers for certain genres are a great idea, but massive queues are just way easier and effective for finding games, so I really don't think there's a good solution to this problem other than be a decently thoughtful human, and always recognize that you're playing with other humans and treat them like you're in the same room with them."

Do not fly your flags inverted unless you are in distress.
Doing this trains people to ignore distress calls.
People who do this push #evil onto their fellow countrymen by denying them life saving communication.

Mark Carney seems to be a great pm. Heck, he even seems to be following Trump's economic style.
This will be good for #canada, this will be good for #usa.
I haven't heard Trump's response yet, but this looks like a positive direction.

Topic:
The biggest problem with the health industry in America right now is the insurance companies.
I have a simple argument for this one. You see, the insurance agencies make it so that it's kind of like federal student loans making college more expensive. That's basically my argument.
There are some material costs associated, but most of the costs in medicine are labor and people looking for profit.
If most people can't afford the thing, but they can afford a smaller thing, that enables them to /afford/ the larger thing.
If people are allowed to buy things they cannot afford, prices must rise, as there will be no downward market pressure.

I love #Libertarianism, but absolute economic libertarianism is nuts. The social stuff is pretty good, but economic?
What inspired me to write today is an episode of Ron Paul's Liberty Report; they were talking about how Trump wants to stop funding NPR and PBS due to them being biased.
As a free market, absolutist. Ron Paul, of course, says, well, we should just never fund them in the first place.
The only thing I can say in favor of PBS is that I've seen a lot of programming on there that's quality and great for families that I've never seen anywhere else, but I don't really know why the private sector couldn't fulfill that role.
NPR, on the other hand, is an extremely valuable resource, if it is not biased.
A resource that just can't work in the private world. How can non-biased news succeed in a world where lies a manipulation are going to win the attention of everyday people?
If the money is not there to support it, then the private industry can't handle it. And we have to fund these things publicly if we want real useful news. Conversely, I mean, if people aren't watching it enough for it to fund itself, then are enough people going to watch it?
That's a great question. But if I could just say, "hey, go listen to the NPR stream." They're going to tell you exactly what you need to hear. We'd be far better off.
And this is exactly why libertarian economics cannot work. Yeah, we should fund very, very few things. However, If the private sector cannot make it happen, and it's a valuable resource, then the public sector needs to do it.
