I agree, crack down hard on employers but also end the social services. The idea of doing all of these methods along with deportation has been around for a very long time before Trump came into the picture.
Fair enough.

That's total bullshit, some might think they are liberal but they're not. I lived in one of the wealthiest counties in NJ for several decades, the people that lived there were some of the most educated people in the US.
The election results were usually 60% Republican and 40% Democrat, and I can tell you those 40% were NOT liberal at all.

What difference does it make what they campaign on? Obumble promised everything under the sun and did none of it. You seem to want to hear a bunch of lies. The dems have done all the things you blame on gop. Vote third party if you want to make a difference.

3. Can you link some evidence of this? I'm curious.
9. I think the post office runs great. I regularly use it over UPS and FedEx. I regularly get packages prompt and on time. My letter carriers are kind and polite. The lady at the counter isn't but whatever...

Not all educated people are wealthy. Wealthy people are Republicans, because Republicans fuck the little guy, not the wealthy lmao! If I were a self serving, educated, wealthy person, I would vote Republican too!
I'm not just speculating, or speaking anecdotally. That's why Republicans put up such fucking retarded candidates, several of whom are even likely to have committed criminal acts, like Chris Christie and Rick Perry. They don't care, their voters are too fucking stupid to pay attention. Michelle Bachman can't even formulate a coherent sentence, and that dumb bitch got elected!!! lmao She makes Sarah Palin look like Stephen Hawking.
Quote:
When viewed in the context of educational attainment alone, without also examining income level, the blog authors concluded that high school graduates are more Republican than non-high school graduates. But after that, the groups with more education tended to vote more Democratic. At the very highest education level tabulated in the survey, voters with postgraduate degrees leaned toward the Democrats.

Obama, who I am not a fan of at all, campaigned that:
1) He would pass a big reform of our health insurance system and help insure millions that did not have it. 2) That he would end the Iraq war 3) That he would end the Bush tax cuts for the wealthiest 4) That he would support banking reform (Dodd-Frank)
These were his main big campaign promises. We can argue endlessly whether he did these reforms well or not and I disagree with him on much, but I certainly acknowledge that he delivered what he promised.

Wow, you make a lot of claims, that you will have to back up, because they are based in lies. Firstly, the government doesn't 'pay able bodied people not to work'.
Quote:

Back it up, son.
Quote:
The banks have gotten much bigger under Obama, are you blind?
... and every president before him. Aside from that, Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders are both vehemently opposed to the expansion of these large banks, and Warren is leading the fight against them. Obama isn't a liberal, and he's hardly a democrat. Certainly there are better examples to measure the Democratic party by. Unless you want me to use George W Bush as the posterchild for the Republican party (Though I feel they've gotten worse).
Quote:
What the hell do you think nafta and tpp is?
All of these trade deals have had more support from Republicans than Democrats.
Quote:

Why should the market dictate wages? To what end? Who is that benefiting? Most certainly not the American people. Make your case.
Quote:
Citizens United is "settled law" just like 0bamacare...
More than 80% of Americans are against citizens united. It is a bipartisan issue.
Quote:

The Post Office is actually incredibly successful. However, you're making the mistake of believing that government institutions are meant to make a profit. I use the Post Office once a week for business. It is incredibly reliable, and cheap, and the post office is making incredible profits. Bush mandated that the Post Office maintains a $10 Billion surplus so that Republicans could point their finger at it and say it doesn't work.
I think you're really missing the fact that Republican obstructionism makes government function poorly. They want everything to be privatized, so they make it look as though the government is incapable of handling them. Why don't you take a look around the world. The rest of the world is doing fantastic with all of their government programs, and we could be too.

If Obamacare is so great, why does Planned Butcherhood still need 500 million of taxpayer funding???
He turned Iraq over to ISIS, that's a good thing?
He raised my taxes too, and I'm hardly "wealthy"... And ya know what else? Raising taxes on the rich doesn't help anyone, but it sure makes those jealous of them feel better, what a great economic policy...
While it's still early in the implementation of Dodd/frank, the negative effects are almost certain to come to light eventually, the last time a banking regulation this massive was launched, it took over ten years for it to collapse the housing markets...
And guess what Barney is doing now? Working for a New York bank helping them navigate a vicious law HE wrote!

Planned Butcherhood lmao. 97% of what they do isn't even abortions and that 3% that is isn't supported by taxpayer funding.
And if you really want to know why Planned Parenthood is so badly needed look at that stupid fucking Hobby Lobby ruling.
The right wants women barefoot, pregnant, and uneducated so they have cheap labor and strong voter turnout. Shit isn't rocket science.

But you're right, govt institutions don't NEED to make a profit, that's exactly what makes them so mismanaged... If they needed to show a profit, they would need to stop wasting so much of our money. How someone cannot be bothered by the massive wastes in govt boggle my mind...

So if the tax money is paying their employees, rent and utilities, then PP has more money to fund abortions. See? It's not rocket science, is it?
The right has elected as many, if not more, women and minorities to positions of power has the left has. That's a fact. The left hates them for it... You're whole last statement is rediculous...

So if the tax money is paying their employees, rent and utilities, then PP has more money to fund abortions. See? It's not rocket science, is it?
Our planet is way over populated and far, far too many babies are born to dumb ass parents that have no idea how to raise them. Poor parenting is probably the number one cause of the problems on our planet.
Abortion, as disgusting as it is, is probably helping keep a lot of problems from getting much worse.
-------------------- "The universe is endless, limitless and infinite. Any effort to define it's boundaries is an attempt to overcome ignorance. We are physical, mental and spiritual beings ... there is no beginning and there is no end. There is only memory. Our repeated loss of memory experiences create the illusion of beginnings and ends. Immortality is the ability to retain full memory through all consciousness transformations. Loss of memory is man's greatest curse and, in very real terms, death." -- Ancient Taoist Master
