I'm not on board with our current chaos. I think we should have a digital currency and everybody should be paying taxes. I do think we should look at the open jobs and see where we can find immigrants able to fill them.

I'm very familiar with NYC airports. Those aren't nonstop flights. Everything in your picture had a connection. LGA doesn't fly west of Denver nonstop (except on Saturdays, right now looks like they have one flight to SLC). Newark is close by which is a major hub for United, but you have to take...

I know the GOP put up Byron Donalds as a prop for Speaker, but watching him on CNN it's clear that this dude is talented (in the political sense). I would not be surprised if he's the GOP nominee in 2028.

If Congress wants to end the era of Trump, they could make lying to the public as an elected official illegal. Of course they would all get arrested, just not have as many charges as Trump (other than his protege Santos).

I think I know why this is much easier for him to handle than the deposition. In court if you lie you can be charged with perjury. There's zero consequences to lying here. Lying comes second nature to this guy. This format is well within his wheelhouse.

He's full of shit with everything he says, but he's strong and quick with a rebuttal. That's all that matters. GOP primary voters aren't going to fact check what he says LOL.

Kaitlyn's rebuttals are getting worse. Sometimes she's just repeating herself regardless of the point made. I wonder if somebody is in her ear or if she's doing this by herself.

I would be extremely worried Democrats. Unlike with the deposition, Trump actually looks sharp in this townhall. Much, much sharper than Biden has presented himself of late.

"Need guns for entertainment" Hmm...maybe if you're Kid Rock.

We need more immigrants. 5 tradespeople are retiring for every 2 entering the labor force.

https://www.cnn.com/politics/live-news/trump-cnn-town-hall/index.html TNT was advertising this townhall in the first commercial break of the Knicks game (I guess they gave up on them already). Kaitlan Collins is actually being tough with her questions. I'm surprised Trump was willing to do...

Hello Collins!

I figured it just had a lot of funerals to attend as 7 horses died training for this stupid animal abuse sport.

Problem is the airline industry is a poor example of a market economy. There's limited competition, especially for certain routes. It's a natural oligopoly that needs to be regulated somewhat like a utility. Take LA and NYC (LAX and JFK) for instance, America's largest 2 cities. There's only 3...

Honestly, mental health services should be provided by the state or even the federal government, not the city government.

In Portugal they get people to go to treatment. In Oregon, almost nobody goes to treatment. It's just write them a citation and off to buy their next meth/fentanyl hit. Watch this from local Oregon news:

This is where we differ. I think we both agree we need more housing for people. That said, once we get the housing I think there needs to be way less toleration. I would ban things like setting up tents/sleeping on sidewalks/in city parks, open-air drug use, and panhandling. The purpose of...

Didn't contradict myself. I believe that following something like the Japanese model maximizes utility for the most citizens. However, I'm leaving the Portugal model open as a possible alternative to what we have now. I should have broken it up to be more clear instead of putting them together...

The stock market made a lot of rich people a lot richer during the pandemic, especially those in the tech space. You need to look at the median and compare it to inflation, not the averages. The averages are skewed towards the wealthy, especially in a place like SF.

It's not just about GDP, SF is the most expensive city in the country to live. How equitable is the distribution? How much of that is directly tied to tech and the stock market bubble? What about the median family? People are moving out of the Bay Area, not moving in.
