People win the powerball too, unfortunately you are more likely to win the powerball back to back to back or find 10 LTC blocks in a day with an old L3 than you are to solve the next BTC block with pencil and paper and 3rd grade math skills...

And no anything above 0 doesn't count, there is technically a non zero chance I will have an orgy with Taylor Swift, Scarlett Johansen, Ivanka Trump, Jennifer Lawrence, Halle Berry, Sofia Vergara and 2 pounds of blow while on a private yacht in the south of France.

Because the real odds of it happening are more or less about as likely as person solving the next BTC block mining with a pencil and paper and 3rd grade math skills.

If the odds were even remotely close to 1% you would have an actual point.

Not sure if you meant it this way or not but this is literally why the rest of the developed world has legislated the private sector and lobbyist out of healthcare as much as possible.  Ironically enough the commies that do this spend WAY less tax dollars while providing WAY better healthcare for it's citizens.  As long as the corporations can continue to trick stupid people into believing any government intervention will end up in a communist state in 3 years Americans will continue to die earlier and spend more public money on healthcare than the rest of the developed world!

The corporations purposely conflate socialized healthcare with government making your pants and cars etc and uneducated or down right stupid people eat it up like a fat kid eats cake.

I can assure you that living in a country that has socialized healthcare does not lead to the government making my jeans and phones, but it does have one side affect, my family never has to worry about declaring bankruptcy from a medical condition or not seeing a doctor because we don't have insurance and can't afford it.

A responsible member of the human race, an atheist philanthropist that helps millions of people live better lives but refuse to believe in a sky fairy or worse yet believes in the wrong one because of what his parents taught him will burn in hell.

A pedophile (priest in extreme cases), murder, rapist, career criminal is welcomed with open arms into magic land if he believes in the sky daddy and just says I'm sorry.

By your logic why not go out and do all the hookers and blow you can, rape every women you desire to fuck and have a good old time and then just say sorry later on...

Your binary options are just too limiting when there are dozens of reasons to reject dogma created to drain wealth and control the masses.

No one in the world knows their laws, cause no one speaks or reads/writes their language, what if it's a crime punishable death to walk on their sand or speak before being spoken too.  What if they thought the stuff he was carrying were unknown military weapons.

Bottom line here for me is leave the fucking people alone to do what the fuck they want.  They sure as fuck aren't trying to do anything but be left the fuck alone. They've been fine for a really long time with out us and we have been just fine without them so don't be a stupid twat and bother them...

I don't feel sorry for a person so wrapped up in dogma that he demands to push it on people that just want to be left the fuck alone.  Honestly I think it's ignorant of Christians to think it's their duty to make people believe the same as them, here's an idea for them, fuck off and leave people alone that don't want your dogmatic horse shit, or who believe another stupid dogmatic religion...  If you're shitty dogma is perfect and right the whole world will find it by themselves!

Weisselman was Trump Company and family finance guy for like 40 years and he has been co-operating with the SDNY for MONTHS.  Anything SDNY had Mueller had.  Trump is just piling on the horse shit so fast everyday no one can keep up and focus long on any one story.  That will change when the Mueller report hits and Congress starts airing Trumps illegal activities.  People forget (or willfully ignore) how much evidence Meuller and the SDNY have.  Weisselman knows ALL of Trumps shit cause he fucking paid it all LOL, and to save his own stupid old ass he flipped on the pussy grabber.

Tick tock tick tock the bell toll for Trump soooooooon!

Using my brain and one of the millions of cells in it I can prove the earth is an oblate spheroid by looking at a picture.  In fact even the most chromosomally challenged individuals can also identify a near round object from pictures.

Religous dogma makes you stupider than a retard LOL sounds about right!

Got my KeepKey today, thanks!

You're a fucking retard, the only fucking country that the US has a bilateral agreement with for safe third Country is the frozen wasteland above you...  You can't even get the name of the agreement right.

There is no such thing as a "safe harbour nation" in legal terms, your stupid argument has been tested and rejected by the courts countless times over the decades.  The law is crystal clear a person can enter mexico first and then enter the US and apply for Asylum, you being to retarded to understand it doesn't change the facts LOL.

Almost 9 million more people voted democrat than republican but somehow Trumps base is increasing, lack of self awareness while Trump scorches the GOP is going to fuck the party for a generation to come!

Thanks Trump, I wonder if we can increase Trumps base to +12 million dem votes in 2020.  Trumps white racist base is shrinking FAST the suburbs abandoned him in record numbers.

Trump did manage to build a wall so at least he sorta kept a campaign promise.  The problem is he built a great big blue wall that is gonna help keep him out of the WH in 2020 IF he even makes it that long!

Probably would have been a better idea for the gop to keep the house instead of giving it away.  Oh well who am I to interrupt an opponent when they make a mistake.    


Wait you mean an actual civil war like with guns and shit? LOL and I'm the lunatic OMFG.


I am actually excited by the fact that the pussy grabbers administration wont be able to force through any MORE bad legislature, good thing your system has such checks and balances IMO...

Trump now has a 60% disapproval rating LOL it's a historical low!  2020 here we come, I wonder who will be the GOP candidate (oh well that's for another thread).

39 seats and counting, dems won the popular vote by almost 9 millions votes LOLOLOLOL.

The stupid cunts up thread were right it wasn't a blue wave.  It was more of a fucking Blue Tsunami.  I enjoyed how they were so confident my prediction of +35-40 seats was stupid.  Huh I guess one of us was able to make an almost perfect prediction!

I'm glad no one interrupted the republicans while they made mistake after mistake after mistake, it gave the dems win after win after win hahahaha.

Trump keeps making his base smaller and smaller, his scorched earth approach could be extremely dangerous for the republican party for a generation or more...  Look at all the districts that were red for generations that flipped (I'm looking at you orange county hehe)

Trumps Tariffs are starting to hit hard in the states Trump won, if those tariffs drag on it will not be a good thing for Trump.  The senate map for 2020 is really bad for the GOP and Trump is driving suburban voters to the democrats daily.  The government is going to get nothing done for the next two years and Trump will get blamed for it by all but his uneducated base.

The blue wave only gets bigger in 2020 if Trump is the GOP candidate.  I'm still not sure Trump will survive Mueller LMFAO to make it to 2020.

Weed is a sched 1 narcotic, like heroin, Cocaine is a sched 2 narcotic.

Border walls don't work, migration is way to difficult to solve with a fucking wall...

Just imagine if everyone in the mall was armed there would be hundreds of innocent dead people instead of just the 1...!!!

This is true right up to the point when those same conglomerates become "too big to fail"...  At which point the capitalist solution is to turn to the state and the people to be bailed out.!.!...

Good guy with a gun is killed by police, 12 year old with 2 gun shot wounds (she doesn't have life threatening injuries fortunately) and perpetrator still on the loose.

So they had a cop and good guys with guns, they managed to kill the good guy and shot a fucking kid AND they didn't even get the motherfucking bad guy...

https://www.star-telegram.com/news/nation-world/national/article222125955.html

The good guy had a legal gun AND had served in the military...  Oh in case it matters to anyone LOL he was a black man in civilian clothes with a gun, the private security police officer saw him and simply opened fire making a split second decision that cost an innocent man his life.  Ironically if the young man didn't have his gun for self defense he would still be alive.

This is a self moderated thread and troll posts will be deleted.  If a post of yours is deleted consider it notification you are not welcome in this thread again.  

He's probably not afraid there just isn't enough pussy's to grab to make the trip worth his time!

Isn't there an invasion at the southern border, he might as well call that a combat zone and head there for a couple pics!

Welcome back to the board!  I hope you will feel like joining back in some of the debates going on!

You raise a number of concerns and I agree it can be a challenging environment at times!

In simple terms theymos' vision for the forum is to be "as free as possible".  This philosophy allows all of us to spew our shit on the pages!  What comes along with being allowed to spew any old shit we want, we also have to deal with others spewing any old shit they want.

I assume that this freedom draws in more of the extreme fringes of society as they can say many things here they can't most other places.  Having any kind of engaging audience just gives them more reason to be here!

I agree certain users are here to push an agenda no matter what.  Along with giving us all the ability to spew shit because of theymos' vision he also gave us a couple of tools to use to combat those we feel are not worth our time.  Putting a user on ignore is one such tool and will allow you a bit of freedom from any user you choose!  The other option is to start self moderated threads, this allows you to delete any post you want, for any reason!

I don't personally have anyone on ignore, it's kinda hard to moderate if you can't read posts hehe.  I do have a couple of self mod'd threads and I encourage debate but there are a couple of users that are not welcome in the thread no matter what they write.

I hope this helps and you will join in the debates again!

Trump is as dumb as a bag of rocks but what about the rest of the world, why the fuck are they not sanctioning MBS. 

Canada (PM Trudeau) for example said the exact same thing Trump did, "we have a 15 billion dollar light armour vehicle deal with Saudi Arabia so we have to be careful"

Lets at least be realistic Saudi Arabia can pretty much do what they want because the world hates Iran more, sells them arms and buys their oil!

There's always a lot of debate over health care (obviously people like being healthy go figure eh!).

There isn't a perfect system and there are a number of different approaches around the world.

The biggest problem in the US health care system IMO is the incentive is for diagnosis and treatment.  There is no financial incentive in prevention...  Fortunately there are lots of professionals that look beyond financial incentive to provide some preventative information but the industry itself has little to no financial incentive to focus on preventative medicine.  I don't mean this as a knock on doctors and nurse's they are doing a great job and change lives everyday with their skill, compassion and dedication.  This is much more of an industry level issue.

You are a better customer to the medical bean counters if you have to see the doctor and use meds etc more often than not.

A lot of countries have taken the regulation step to stop this but there focus still isn't IMO enough on prevention.

I think that perhaps some smart people should look at how to redistribute the incentives for the medical share holders.  If somehow the system was changed to a value based system where doctors and hospitals made more money the healthier their patients are?

I honestly have no fucking clue how that would work or look like TBH but the principal of keeping the government regulations limited and allowing a more free market system might be possible if somehow the incentive for healthy patients was the primary motive?
