Re: What? Colin Powell is voting for Clinton
Colin Powell might be voting for Clinton, but whom is his dog voting for? That's what I really want to know!

So not voting for a progressive liberal is wrong? I will now answer my own question to you by saying. Indeed it isn't!Fiannan wrote:Becoming persecuted for doing right is praiseworthy, being persecuted for doing something wrong is karma.GrandMasterB wrote:It won't be the first time we were persecuted and won't be the last.Fiannan wrote:If Mormons vote for a questionable CIA dude and throw this election to Hillary they will gain nothing but ill-will from true Americans.Vision wrote:

Just go ahead and pay your new premiums GrandB. Enjoy it. Hillary will give you higher premiums, less choice and less quality. Enjoy.

Re: What? A new way to Vote!
Maybe I just don't like spinning the wheel to vote. How about we change!
- Vote from the comfort of your own home and computer
- Required fingerprint, retina scan, and picture taken
The news media do a lottery for which group presents the tallies. Like a Fund Raiser Chart or something.
Let's say CNN wins the first lottery.
- Voting starts 2 weeks before the Tuesday in November
- Going to CNN.com, you can see how your candidate is doing
- You get 1 time to change your vote
Don't you think this would make voting a lot more fun! We would probably double the amount of voters!

So Evan doesn't really want to repeal Obamacare since he wants to keep it's basics, and honestly, Obamcare is "established law" so Evan wouldn't do anything anyway. He'd probably golf more than Obama does.

Re: What? A new way to Vote!
FYI - just copied this from one of my FB posts, thought this may be important:
On election day, if your voting machine is a SmartMatic brand, DEMAND a paper ballot. George Soro’s now owns SmartMatic. You have the right to require a paper ballot, and under FEDERAL LAW the polling place MUST provide one for you. Don’t throw your vote away.

Re: What? Trump - the orange amoeba
“One thing that has to be said here is Donald Trump really does represent 40% to 45% of this country. They are petrified of their future. Their next job once they get laid off is going to be flipping hamburgers. They’re going to live until 85 and their Social Security is not enough to live on and they’re being forced out of their jobs in their fifties or whatever,” the multi-billionaire media and technology magnate said at Bloomberg’s “The Year Ahead” conference in New York on Tuesday.
He acknowledged that technology, not global trade, is destroying an enormous number of jobs. Indeed, this explains why manufacturing activity is up even as manufacturing jobs falter. This is a problem that affects the constituents of both political parties.
Bloomberg later added that the “greatest conundrum” the next administration and the country faces will be how to create jobs as technology forces more people out of work. He noted some estimates suggest that up to 40% of jobs could be automated.

Re: What? Trump - the orange amoeba
rewcox,
I definitely agree that technology is a major factor in the loss of jobs. One of the fears I have with raising minimum wage is the loss of even more jobs.
It's already happening:
However, outsourcing jobs to other countries is also a huge problem. I work in tech support, and jobs are constantly being outsourced overseas. You know how many people I talk to daily, that are surprised they are actually talking to an "American?
No one person is gong to be able to fix this mess our country is in. Most of us don't even know where to start.
The best we can hope for, is to try to slow down the insanity.

Re: What? Trump - the orange amoeba
I agree. I work in IT. Many IT workers in the US are foreign now. Many, many jobs are now in India. Trump just says many many jobs will come to America if he is president. Wrong. Corporations (following their master, Greed) always go where the money is.anonymous91 wrote:rewcox,

Small business wants a global economy so they can sell their product to the world.
Corporate greed controls a lot more than we realize. I have learned a new talent, being able to understand Indians sometimes.
