@Karoli , call me when the DOJ pursues charges against Betsy DeVos.
Let's pretend we do.
@rephlex00 , I would say if you don't actually live on it, it is a waste of money. If it travels from place to place, and you fly, you don't live on it.

It's sad the hottest thing I've ever heard a man say is that he's not ignoring me, he's thinking about what I said.
@talia_christine @stylinstainless , how about rock hard green ones too??
@freemo @pyranose @georgetakei what form of universal healthcare has Biden (or Obama) ever supported?
@IronCurtain , I think a federal civil lawsuit for violation of 1st amendment rights is in order, and revoking the police licenses of any cop that arrested her, or participated in her incarceration.
@freemo @pyranose @georgetakei , you may disagree that I provided more than one example, and that's OK, you have every right to be wrong.

I would say that you being in the thick of the forest your sight is blinded by the trees. As for selective eye sight, we all suffer from that. No exceptions to that rule.
No, I don't think to be left you have to be anti large company. I would suggest not being anti large company is a common feature for the right though. I would say being in favor of corporate government enforced monopolies is a strong indication you are pretty far right wing. With almost no room for exceptions to that rule. I would also argue that 'unregulated businesses is not a right wing position. The right loves mountains of regulations that support their major donors, and inhibit competition. That privatize profits, while socializing costs like pollution.
@freemo @pyranose @georgetakei , my points are intended to indicate that both Biden and Obama were actively pursuing right wing goals. Or, by inaction, allowing right wing goals to become a fait accompli.
@freemo @Free_Idealist @pyranose @georgetakei , I am sure someone can come up with a counter to the argument. But I have yet to see it. And without any argument to the contrary, and what I have seen, I tend to agree with the placement of those people on that scale.
Just for an example, there are reasons Biden was called "The Senator from MBNA", a credit card company.

@jinxhart , Debbie Does Gary Indiana.
@freemo @georgetakei , that terminology I can agree with. But I'm not sure the GQP has a party line anymore. If anything, their platform is ' support trump,' and that seems to be what these clowns are doing....
An argument can be made supporting any position here, and I think that is intentional by the GQP as a whole.
@Free_Idealist @pyranose @freemo @georgetakei
Reality sucks, eh?
@freemo @pyranose @georgetakei Both Biden and obama never did anything but increase military spending. Obama ramped up drone bombing. Biden has continued the border policies of the trump administration, including family separations. GITMO is still open. There is little or no movement on major polluters, curbing drug company monopolies, and a net increase in fossil fuel land leases.
In many cases, it is a lack of action from the Biden and Obama administrations, but that isn't a left position either. It is a pretty far right position. Don't pass a law for federally protected abortion rights...
And I don't think Obama adopting Mitt Romney's healthcare plan is a left wing plan either, and there is no push from Biden for a single payer system. In fact, I believe biden took that off the table in the Dem primaries back in 2020.
I see both Obama and Biden as right wingers. I'm far from the only one (https://www.politicalcompass.org/uselection2020) :
@freemo @georgetakei , I have a hard time believing they are voting their conscious. These guys are mostly just pissing in the soup.
@Alice I have a similar issue, due to me only wearing kilts.
If only I had known how this would affect my income 25 years ago...
@Free_Press they have thermal sights, and when looking for a tank, that's good enough. The exhaust is 1700 degrees on that leopard.
@NPR I hope this becomes the best funded HS band in the country after this, with the only multimillionaire band director in a high school.
