Reparations thread, for one.

Didn't see anything about racism and sexism from you there.

Again, you can't just make your usual dumb and ignorant \ statements without some sort of examples to back them up. Show your work.

Democrats: Great. Then let's start by raising taxes to Scandinavian levels so that we can afford to properly rebuild our infrastructure and fund our government, instead of continuing to let it rot and put things on the Bank of China credit card.

Republicans/Libertarians: "NO, THAT'S T3H SOCIALISM!1!!1!!! MOAR TAX CUTS FOR THE RICH!11!1!!"

Taxes are theft.

This sounds about right for late-stage capitalism.

The first snowflake of winter fell this week when 3M had a bad earnings call and announced 2,000 layoffs. 3M is considered a bellwether since it is exposed to so many markets and businesses. The big red flag was that all sectors were down. That’s not a good sign.

If you need money that much, just go to the government for a $25 million bailout. C'mon people, do I have to think of everything for you?!
