The Fatal Expense of American Imperialism

Bombs vs Butter.
United Technologies vs USA (Us)
Lockheed Martin vs Life Expectancy
Lies vs Liberty
Sorties vs Schools.
Hellfire Missiles vs Hunger
ISIS vs Ignorance
Tanks vs Transportation

BULLSHIT is what it spells. Look for yourself.

‘The single most important issue in allocating national resources is war versus peace, or as macroeconomists put it, “guns versus butter.” The United States is getting this choice profoundly wrong, squandering vast sums and undermining national security. In economic and geopolitical terms, America suffers from what Yale historian Paul Kennedy calls “imperial overreach.” If our next president remains trapped in expensive Middle East wars, the budgetary costs alone could derail any hopes for solving our vast domestic problems.’

Despite Zero Reports, States Warn of Marijuana-Laced Candy on Halloween

#News420 – Parents, despite what the anti-marijuana folks want you to believe, you don’t need to worry about your kids getting Cannabis treats in their Halloween stash. It’s a bunch of anti-weed hype being spammed out in the yellow press.

“There were zero incidents of children being given tricky pot treats reported in 2014 or in 2015, but that hasn’t stopped other states from issuing a warning cry.”

WikiLeaks release shows Brazile passed along question ahead of CNN debate

So, CNN commentator passed along at least 2 debate/town hall questions in advance to Hillary (that we know about, thanks to Wikileaks), then became the interim head of the DNC, while still employed at CNN. CNN suspended her shortly thereafter (July) to create the illusion of impartiality, and but didn’t get around to terminating her until Oct 14. So, to recap the future Head of the DNC, while working for CNN, passed info to Hillary to help her in the debate/town hall. So much for the objectively neutral press, right? Wikileaks shows that CNN is TRULY the Clinton News Network. FUCK YOU CNN.

John Oliver explains why racism and school segregation is very much alive in 2016

Not sure I agreed with Mr Oliver on all of his points. For one thing, if the problem is underfunding of schools where students are mostly low income minorities, why is the strategy to solve the problem not to fund ALL schools equally?
Bussing kids across town to a better school is a shitty answer. Kids should be able to attend schools in their own neighborhoods. Don’t get me wrong…I’m not advocating “Separate But Equal” schools as they have been implemented in the past, because we know that didn’t work well at all. But all schools in the same city should be funded equally. For one municipality to fund one school at one level and another at a lower level is discriminatory. Just because one neighborhood pays higher property taxes shouldn’t give them priority standing. People in “rich” neighborhoods pay higher taxes because they are rich. They were able to purchase more expensive property, and these folks can afford to pay higher taxes. They can also afford to send their kids to private schools if they don’t feel public school education is good enough (and most of them do exactly that anyway). The rich have a choice. The taxes they pay shouldn’t entitle their children to a better education than someone who cannot afford to pay that amount of tax. The wealthy can afford to BUY their kids a better education than public schools provide if they so wish.
But the poor (regardless of skin color) have no choice. They depend on public schools as the ONLY choice for their children, and to limit them to schools that SUCK is fundamentally unfair to those children and our entire society. ALL our children should be entitled to THE BEST education that our country can give them.
Ask yourself this: How many “Einsteins” have ended up in jail (or worse) instead of discovering the next breakthrough in quantum physics, simply because of the neighborhood where they grew up? How many times over might we have already cured cancer if we were pulling from the ENTIRE population of children for the next generation of medical researchers instead of just the wealthy segment? Great schools in the most economically challenged neighborhoods would fundamentally change our Nation for the better. Some of our greatest minds are rotting away, wasted, simply because the schools in their neighborhoods suck, and the teachers don’t have the resources to prepare them for a productive future.
If we want to focus on desegregation, focus on desegregating NEIGHBORHOODS. Great schools would encourage more diversity in those neighborhoods, and therefore in the schools. Great schools would help increase property values (and eventually property taxes) in those areas as well. Simply carting kids across town is the WORST answer for everyone. The shitty schools stay shitty, and the students who go there get a shitty education regardless of race. Bussing white kids into poor schools from rich areas won’t work…because the rich kids will end up in private schools if they can afford it…and they can. So only the poor white kids will get bussed to the poorly funded schools, and discrimination persists. Sure…we shift from race-based to income-based discrimination. But it’s still discriminatory and everyone (except the wealthy) ends up unhappy…as usual.

Hillary Emails Reveal True Motive for Libya Intervention | Foreign Policy Journal

Gaddafi was trying to unite Africa under a new gold standard…gold as the standard for purchasing oil, rather than “fiat” currencies like the US dollar, which are backed only by the “good name” of the USA, and can easily be manipulated by central banks. Africa…at least the parts that might have joined under the standard…would have benefitted hugely, and gained control over their own future. HIllary’s vision of America wouldn’t have it. Gaddafi had to go. They pretty much used any and every smear they could to justify illegal military action and the murder…and torture…of a foreign leader. Yea…THIS is who we want as our President. #NotMe #NotHillary

Clinton enjoys solid lead in early voting: Reuters/Ipsos poll

I can’t begin to tell you how wrong it is to release results of early voting. The Constitution specifies the date for Election day, and assuming you approve of the concept of early voting at all (which is debatable but, I feel, a good thing in terms of getting more people to be able to vote), you should CRINGE at the concept of releasing results…or even exit poll data…before the polls are CLOSED. People should not have the benefit of knowing what everyone else is voting before casting their ballots. It makes it way too easy to corrupt the election results with the “I wanna be on the winning side” vote. The secret ballot is as much to protect the integrity of the elections as it is to protect people from being shit on because they voted AGAINST the majority. If you release the results in advance, the pressure to vote with the majority so as to avoid ridicule and threats of your peers increases….especially for some people. It’s wrong and it should stop.
In the UK, the law FORBIDS exit polling and the release of results until the polls are ALL closed. Here in America, we let CNN ‘call’ the race sometimes before any votes have been counted. #WTF America?
If you are in CA and you already know the results of the East Coast and Midwest, do you think that might influence some people’s vote? You KNOW it does. I know it does. CNN and Fox know it does. Nuff Said.

Facebook lets advertisers target you by race

Facebook, you are being Fucking Racist. Advertising and polling by race should be illegal. If you want to have a color blind society, you don’t accomplish it by constantly looking to single out minorities, whether in politics or in marketing. Of course, politics really is just marketing at this point anyway, so it’s really just the same thing. So stop contributing contributing to racist traditions and try embracing the similarities between us for a change…how about that?
