I upvoted this because it needs attention. Personally, I down vote this practice of average people paying for some rich dudes stadiums that allow them to fleece the public of even more money! Subsidizing big oil, big pharma, big tech, and sports is immoral.

... one's monetized .

Wait a minute . . . . . . .

I have a friends who calls teeth "luxury bones" because she was told they weren't needed to do her job when she asked why insurance didn't cover dental...

Oh can you run the phone company too?

And all this is because people buy fancy coffee.

Yes, and can only use the toilet during his designated break. And have a boss like himself as his allocated demon.

Or May would have worked too!

Ouch

In reply to Spike Hodge, part of my work involves child protection. Most of the offenders are relatives. Fewer than 20% are teachers/church/scoutmasters or other people in a position of trust. So far (and I confess we are a largely rural area) absolutely no drag artists.

...they think we were created specifically as a Christian nation, a lot of them. Fools, bullies, goons, and hypocrites...

Wait until they get to the pearly gates and someone tells them about this guy Jesus. Spoiler alert: he was neither white or American.

Upvote to the moon. This. This. FFS This.

Biblically, you can love people without forcing others to pay the expenses of those who refuse to work, and you can care for others and disagree with their politics. It's not that Christianity is a sham, it's that it's easier to mock than genuinely understand.

Some "Christians" don't actually follow the actual teachings of Jesus Christ. I am a follower of Christ and I live buy Ĥis teachings. Jesus gave us two (2) laws to live by. Matthew 22:36-40: 36 “Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Law?” 37 Jesus replied: “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’[a] 38 This is the first and greatest commandment. 39 And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’[b] 40 All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments.” Alot of "Christians" cherry pick or interpret a passage to fit THEIR agenda. Not sure what to do? Read the 1st 4 books of the Bible. Read what Jesus ACTUALLY taught!!!

The early church would have been considered socialism. American Christianity is being turned into Christian nationalism. Want God in government, secure SSI, fix the fostercare system, create more programs helping the poor and single mom, ect. The GOP are not Christian's, there is no Christian vote. Not everyone that claims to be Christian is, you will know Christian's by their love and service to others.

so f*****g true

"Chris was the ideal man but you Christians, you are not like him" -Ghandi

Jesus was a pacafist? Stupid post for a girl who is flipping the bird.

Don't forget tha USA was established by puritans, radical offshoot with strict and literal interpretation of Bible. They only chose selected parts that suited their view and were not willing to yield to majority back in Britain. Hence they buggered of over the pond to start their own version without anyone outside interfering with their doings. So this view runs in USA till today, at least religion point of view.

Yeah stand outside a church holding a bible then incite rioters

Jesus at the Getshemane sword fight

Religious people are dumb and/or evil.

Insuline is one of the cheapest medecine on earth. I mean we know how to produce it very easily and for not much money. Work in hospital in France and i feel bad when i think at how much insulin we just waste. At some point americans should just ask to european to send them insuline by postal service. I mean in France not only insuline is really cheap but it's also refunded by social security for every person suffering from diabete. Diabete is on a list of 30 chronic disease and social security pay everything related to these disease.

Go for a run at night.

I have started to cheat my brain and it works. When i go to bed i say to myself i'm gonna read at least 50 pages of this book or i will watch this entire movie, i don't care i'm not gonna sleep early. And how surprise i fall asleep. Same for the morning, if i'm motivated to sleep more and add minutes to my alarm i usually feel pretty woke up. Reverse psychology on myself helps me and that's so weird.

"He ain't laugh" hurts to read

Oh, she is 100% an american.

Wait til this person finds out how much the failing US high school system spends on team sports.

... it's almost like capitalism is a private game for a handful of folks to really stick it to the tremendous majority of decent folks...

... we've always lied to ourselves, we looooove our own particular brand of booolshit in the USA

Okay here's my view, take it or leave it. I don't care what y'all say about it. I think that Marijuana should be used medically, like for instance fixing seizures or other medical problems. My problem is with recreational marijuana use, both of my biological parents used marijuana when I was a child and needless to say they weren't present at all. They also used heroin but the Marijuana contributed a bunch. So in short, medicinal use is good and should be promoted, but recreational use is destructive

Implode faster!! Wonder how we could all help hasten capitalisms end? K!ll it before it k!lls us.

...kind of an a*****e system, ain't it?

...because some billionaires bought the right folks votes. pretty simple.

If he dealt them out to students, then this is a little offence

I loved how in the movie Day After Tomorrow the whole of america has to flee to mexico. Oh, how the tables have turned

...well, they *do* hide their taxable incomes overseas. Panama Papers?

looking at you, monsanto

I've actually met some Americans and they really do go around saying 'America is the best country in the world'. Bizarre, it's like they're brainwashed. Other western countries look at America as an example of how not to be.

Lol

...yup. that's our goddamn money...

Pfffffttt WebMD has been doing that for years!

...it do, indeed..

Absolutely

That's why Denmark has low reoffending rates. Prisoners who are treated with respect and given the opportunity to get an education, a job and a home upon release are much less likely to go back to a life of crime.

...you must be thinking post-first run matinees @ $10...

Don't tread on me, unless I am a woman and pregnant.

Fair enough..

... That's not an acceptable excuse, unless you have a doctor's note. Drrrr.
