I guess my stance on this stuff can be said along the lines of: I'd rather have a corrupt businessman who knows how to do politics instead of a corrupt screeching idiot who appeals to the lowest common denominator.B1rd wrote:

Le Pen has good immigration policy and she wants to get out of the EU, but she has a bad protectionist economic policy. Macron has better economic policy and free trade, but is a globalist and has a bad immigration policy. I'd rather have someone who doesn't know what they're doing but has good intentions have power over an elite establishment figure who is professional at fucking people over. And leaving the EU, or immigration which will permanently affect a countries demographics will have a lot longer lasting consequences than an import tariff. Such immigration policy will also place the French people at more immediate risk of terrorist attacks and place more strain on the country's welfare and housing.DaddyCoolVipper wrote:

Seriously, I don't understand how people can be in favour of populist politicans unless they ACTUALLY buy into the shit that they're saying (i.e. they're falling for lies). Which a lot of people evidently do, but I have a pretty fucking low opinion of "people in general" nowadays, so their rising (peaked?) popularity doesn't mean anything important to me.

Me too it keeps digging into the chair and going numb, then I put feet under butt and they go numb too, then I sit normally and butt numb again.

my uncle joe saw anti-overfishing regulations get set in place by law one time so that sort of deflates your argument that you can privately protect the environment (which largely takes place on gov't-owned land)B1rd wrote:
I was just at a private conservation ground that gets about 1.6 million dollars of income from private donors from this state alone. Sort of deflates the argument that it's impossible to protect the environment without the government.
Wow did the government really set rules about what you can do on its land? Obviously if that land were privately owned the owners would let anyone come and fish until there was nothing left, because people don't care about their property or its value (only the government does).DaddyCoolVipper wrote:

B1rd has said in the past that he would absolutely support having everything, including Police and Fire Departments, being privately owned.DaddyCoolVipper wrote:
Would you also support a privately-owned and paid for police force? Fire department? Other community services like those?

I just think you put far too much faith in private ownership to be SIGNIFICANTLY better than government ownership. In some ways it can be better, in some ways worse, most people understand and agree with that concept. Where do you get the idea that privatised ownership of resources would be so *significantly* better?

Nevermind the fact that actually reforming these prisoners would actively damage their income. It's in their best interest to have as many prisoners as possible, so you bet they're going to do all they can to keep prisoners from reintegration into society, and try all they can to keep them locked up as long as possible.Railey2 wrote:
Clearly they don't, because its not as profitable as say.. to just make a deal with a company from the outside and let people work for below min wage in prison - without any focus on improving their situation.
