Yes, we are in agreement that it's not happening soon.
Though if it were to happen, I wouldn't use the word "dire" to describe it.

Good discussion, but Fal that unemployment chart really isn't the accurate. Either way, one time Bernanke was being questioned by Congress and they asked him why REAL unemployment was so high and why wages remain so stagnant for the large majority of US workers- his answer was globalization and productivity (technology gains). He honestly said he didn't have any solutions for this structural problem.

I agree that globalization contributes to unemployment. But a republican appointee probably won't have an answer to stagnant wages; republicans tend not to support such things as minimum wages.

Ah, so he blamed unemployment on businesses being more efficient, by doing things such as providing ATMs instead of bank tellers. He didn't blame it on ATMs.
Thanks for proving yourself wrong.

All of the Republican candidates suck, only Trump offers some sort of structural change, cancel the trade agreements and bring the work back home.

I think we are in agreeance in that its not happening anytime soon.
There is some evidence to suggest that AI may exist as early as 2045. Google is already devoting significant resources toward AI development.
Who knows what that means for society. Robot slaves? I don't know, but I feel that if we continue to let the wealthy separate themselves further and further from the rest of us, they may just do away with us when they don't need us anymore, and the technology (that only they have access to) exists to do so.

Rand Paul offers some interesting 'structural change'. I guess he's not really in the running anymore though lol...
I'm quite shocked that he fizzled so fast. Him and Ted Cruz. I guess the teabagger movement is dead in the water at this point.

Maybe. Some people enjoy dominating by brutally killing...

Bigger problems facing America!?! Not really. Marijuana is one of the biggest issues facing America.
We're talking MASSIVE tax revenue. MASSIVE imprisonment costs, and law enforcement costs. MASSIVE numbers of lives ruined. A guy in Louisiana doing 20 years for a pot brownie because it's his 3rd strike. MASSIVE defunding of criminal organizations.
We're talking MASSIVE industrial utility lost because hemp is illegal. MASSIVE healthcare costs that can be avoided. MASSIVE prescription drug addiction numbers that have been SIGNIFICANTLY reduced in states that legalize pot. MASSIVELY less incidence of DUI!
This is an ENORMOUS issue with MASSIVE implications.

So what about the election results excited you then? What made it a big deal?

Anyone who cares about Government getting out of our private business. And wooof also made a very good point about it.

Limiting marijuana rights was a conservative victory.
Liberals only want to control corporations to prevent them from doing certain things (polluting, exploiting workers, etc), while conservatives want to control people's private lives (anti-marijuana, anti-gay marriage, anti-choice, anti-muslim, etc).
Get out of my private life, please.
