  1. The average age of a citizen in Gaza is 19. They did not elect Hamas in the only election that was held in 2006
  2. I don’t think you can put it together but the invisible man he was referencing is god
  3. I would argue that one going out and protesting their government from aiding and giving money to Israel to use to commit war crimes and genocide is going out and attempting to make a change
  4. Whose votes?
  5. If minimum wage was not designed to be lived on what was its purpose? @mspart
  6. The Florida law was in direct response to Miami-Dade counties efforts to require shade and water for construction, farm, and all outdoor workers. I guess the best phrase would be why is this a piece of legislation that is worth paying our representatives salaries to push forth or what good comes from not allowing outdoor workers in extreme heat states to take more breaks, I mean even Saudi Arabia has heat restrictions for workers
  7. So the way our border is now is better in your eyes if you oppose the bill?
  8. I just wanted to know if there was a big reason for your outrage with this situation. Do you share the same anger or resentment towards gop leaders that kill a border control bill and use tax dollars to continually bus and fly migrants around to other States as you do democratic leaders who use tax money to help migrants? With the GOP policy of using tax money to shuttle migrants around you could argue that this causes more illegal immigrants to come because they know once they hit Texas they know that the state or another state will just pay to ship them.
  9. I’m sorry i forgot we are only allowed to discuss climate change and immigrants. People on here harp on all day about how the left and the Democratic Party is ruining America when we have Republicans literally taking away rights and protections and regressing our society and no one has a word to say
  10. https://www.nola.com/news/politics/legislature/la-lawmakers-vote-to-remove-lunch-breaks-for-child-workers/article_ef234692-fd9e-11ee-99f5-771c7366107a.html LA lawmakers have just advanced a bill that will remove lunch breaks for child workers. Florida just took away heat breaks from people working outside. The AZ house will not even dare hold a vote to repeal the abortion law that was in place decades before AZ was even a state. What year are we living in and why are Republicans so intent on dragging us into the past, what good is going to come out of all this?
  11. Hey Willie, how has this immigrant crisis personally affected you?
  12. It’s quite funny seeing Elon complaining about illegal immigration when he himself illegally overstayed his visa
  13. The building that was struck was the consulate building adjacent to the embassy. Where has Iran come out and stated this is not a diplomatic building like you are claiming?
  14. Are you sure about that? Is there any source backing this up? A quick google search shows Syria's own Foreign Minister attending the opening of the building
  15. What does Iran call the attack on their consulate?
  16. You literally quoted the part where I asked what part of the new plan does not flow through constitutionly sound procedure? He is announcing relief because in the past you had to manually apply for the pslf loan forgiveness after following your payment plan. In the past administration, they manually denied many of these people that did actually qualify so now he is making it everyone is automatically applied for forgiveness once they meet the requirement so that the law is followed and the debt is discharged
  17. What part of this new plan does not flow through constituently sound procedures?
  18. isn't getting policy passed through any avenue possible to improve their constituents life literally the job of a politician? Plus Biden is literally only taking credit for following through on programs that have existed for over 10 years before he took office, which the government was legally obligated to do since it was written into the original terms of the loans
  19. This new forgiveness plan helps people who should have had their debt discharged already according to laws signed under bush. Is anything that an official runs on that will help Americans considered buying votes? Would a president promising to lower taxes be considered buying votes and corrupt?
  20. While there are government regulations the U.S. does have a free market economy. no one is forcing these businesses to operate in California, they are free to move and cease business within the state. Just don't understand all the hysteria over making big fast food corps posting record profits pay a livable wage while there are literally exemptions carved out for the small business. If your business does not make enough money to pay people, you do not run a successful business
  21. That is the hand of the free market. If someone can not afford to employ people at a competitive rate, maybe they don't make enough to sustain that business.
  22. you brought up the perfect example, Foster Freeze is shutting down locations in California to get under the 60 locations in California to avoid the new law. There were 64 locations. With this example I am not sure how strong the case is still about small business owners suffering, maybe more so corporate greed and trying to squeeze all time high profits out of us while decreasing their costs.
  23. The law only applies to restaurants with 60 or more locations, small businesses are exempt from the new wage, how exactly were several mom and pops with 10 or less locations forced to shutter their business?
  24. Hmmm yes makes total Sense to spend years in Afghanistan when bin Laden was killed in Pakistan….
  25. I thought this whole argument was to respect American troops who died for American freedoms and rights. Now you are saying our troops died fighting for human rights so women can drive a car and not cover their faces because a man says they should. If that’s what our job was to prevent we didn’t a really bad job because That happens in Afghanistan now after we were there for years and lost many American lives. Saudi Arabia who is most responsible for 9/11 still has those norms yet you don’t care because we are allies.
