    Just because the dems are taking a sabbatical from heddonism while trump is in office does not mean they yave gotten religion and found Jesus

    they are still the party of bill clinton, barney frank and ted kennedy

    None of whom were thrown out of office for their sexual transgressions

    Quite a deal of hair splitting required to prop up Roy ain't there. Pedophile covers the first three.

    Yup, they are all alike ain't they now. Apparently it isn't just "them" but rather that amerian men have an issue.

    But this is what exceptionalism really looks like; guilt/sin/blame to avoid a hard look at american society followed by personal responsibility for the society you/we dwell in.

    Well, see how this goes. The fool is asked to prove his bull ****, and lies, and all he can do is rant. YOUR comment was "That show why their ilk is a majority of deviates and degenerates.". Prove it *******.

    You should look up the threads on them as they have been posted in. Like I said, this way you would know what you are talking about.

    Sounds like you are upset that your kind holds the winning Trophy. Live with it.

    Nope pedophile covers only the first two. Unless you think 18 and 19 year olds are children. Oh and pedophile only applies to prepubescent children.

    You use semantics to justify Roy Moore's actions. How sick is that! And, even that you do poorly.

    The crime expired years ago! Didn't anybody tell you?

    This is a moral matter, not a legal matter. This isn't even about Roy Moore. The guy's a pervert. But that's not the issue.

    The issue is you and voters like you. You are defending a pervert. In my opinion, it is immoral to defend, promote and vote into one of the three powers of government somebody who has sexually molested minors. Do you have a different opinion?

    Oh I rather think we all know it is applied via rabid frothy mouthed partisanshithead preferentialism and that we really don't have a value system that minds much given how prevalent this sort of thing is in american society.

    The more hedonistic a society becomes the lower the value it places on women and children and the more it tends to view those other than one's self as little more than momentary conveniences.

    What he said. And it also is a result of our economic system wherein human beings are merely commodities to be leveraged in the extraction, accumulation and concentration of wealth.

    Bull. Economic systems once slavery is removed from the equation do no such thing it simply isn't productive or for that matter common sense to mistreat your workers. This isn't the 1800's anymore. Screwing over the people who put money in your pocket is a recipe for disaster. The single greatest asset and business can have is the good will of it's work force. Sacrificing that all but guarantees that you going to have to spend a hell of a lot of money on security guards and systems to prevent those working for you from returning the favor should you choose to screw them.

    You might want to get word out to your bidness community that severing the connection between worker productivity and worker compensation is JUST that.

    Workers produced much more, but typical workers’ pay lagged far behindDisconnect between productivity and typical worker’s compensation, 1948–2013

    [​IMG]
    Note: Data are for compensation (wages and benefits) of production/nonsupervisory workers in the private sector and net productivity of the total economy. "Net productivity" is the growth of output of goods and services less depreciation per hour worked.

    Fewer workers mean fewer wage increases. One of the real problems with increasing taxes and regulations is that fewer productive people get hired as money that stays in country gets switched from wealth creation to wealth preservation. If hiring more workers incurs higher regulatory costs fewer workers will be hired

    You think there is reasonable proof? No court in the land would take this case with forty year old allegations, because there is absolutely no evidence or proof at all.

    You can join the lynch mob, democrats will feel right at home doing that. It would remind them of the good old days, when no proof was needed, and no day in court allowed, dems would just string people up.

    For the hundredth time: this is not a legal issue. This is a moral issue. And it's not even about the moral standards of Roy Moore. It's about the moral standards of those who support the creep, find excuses for him, and would even vote for him.

    A moral issue for those who believe the accusers, sure.

    I don't.

    It was already established that you only believe the victims when they favor your political party. Your lack of moral values is old news. I'm just checking on others with your same political views. I have found only a few who actually place moral values before blind partisanship. And you're obviously not one of them...

    Think of tax cuts the way you think of store sales. Stores are happy to have store sales. The reason why is the store gains. They would stop instantly if they lost money.

    Change store sales to taxes and you may get it.

    The Feds are not operating off the backs of the poor. Those folks quit being taxed eons ago. The middle class cuts of Reagan and later Bush are still there. They are not paying for government, their money pays China and Japan for the debt. The rich pay for government. I don't care or not over the money paid if they get reduced taxes or double the taxes. Morally it is is repugnant to me to set one group of people at the throat of other groups. Your system is what greed is all about. Won't pay for government and angry if the rich catch a break.

    Having government is not a moral issue. There are issues only government can handle. And even democrats bellow government handles problems poorly.

    Screw partisanship yet you won't get Democrats to talk that way. I vote for republicans for the simple reason that it is them or the Democrats. I spent decades voting for Democrats. I changed because of their long term broken promises. Why go back and vote for them since their claims of change means nothing changes?

    Wealth is like planting a strawberry patch. The farmer first has seeds. The Democrats do not mind the seeds since they are fairly low cost and small. But as the plant matures, they suddenly realize he will put a lot of cash into his pocket. And who buys strawberries? We all do. So what did the Farmer do wrong? Harvesting them and selling us delicious berries?

    His crops are his wealth. If he saves some cash, no problem. Daily the government is printing more cash. They ensure we do not run out of cash.

    His land is wealth. So are his machinery. And his buildings. All are wealth. If said Farmer buys stocks, he gets more wealth. But not by taking, but by giving.

    Some of you may not know about this, but since I was born in 1938, I know the history since WW2 pretty well. My parents were democrats. Dad never showed signs of hating the rich. Mom did. She told me plenty of stories to try to make me think terrible thoughts about the rich. To her, they might as well have been the Mafia.

    This hating of the rich does no good. They will keep getting wealthy and the poor will keep griping. It's never going to stop. This is partly reasons for crime. The poor want others property and I do not side with them. I was poor and know how the poor live. I also know what it is like to own a number of homes and rake in some very excellent cash. It feels far better being well off than poor.

    What the left rejects is the notion that most people end up at the point they are willing to settle.
