Flag at half staff during the inauguration of a president? Not good.

  1. With government subsidies and tax breaks and handouts so that companies who are failing are rescued... We don't practice free market capitalism in the U.S.

  3. Yeh. well. let's see if Biden does a comeback the way Trump did.

    You guys just keep on being happy with Kamala and putting your future in her. That sure as hell works for me. And by all means take your same issues into the midterms and see how those are aging for you.

    Idiots. Your ilk are just lost in space. You know you hate Trump and that is all you know.

  5. When did trump denounce corporate welfare again? what exactly was trumps point? Trump doesn't believe in free markets obviously because his policies.are protectionist. It's fine but let's no pretend Gop is for free markets.

  7. while giving tax cuts to corporations and tariff protections against US competitors. thank you for failing economics.

    you want me to google all the times trump enacted corporate.welfare to help US corporations are will you have computer access after 9pm.

    You would be more informed if not so biased haha

    Delta orders jets from Canada and Boeing complains it lost the bid...trump.slaps duties on Canada jets so boeing doesn't have to lower it's price but get help from the government. corporate welfare

    just one example....i don't need to Google more for you.

    Don't claim trump is against corporate welfare..he is a politician....crack a book.

    Free markets mean reducing consumer protections, environmental regulations, and worker safety laws.

    It doesn’t mean ending corporate welfare.

    I know many guys who made 8 figures on trumps corporate welfare programs during COVID. They love free markets.

  10. I'd almost feel lucky if we "only" had one disruptive event costing billions of lives. I see AI alone presenting 4 challenges that humans need to overcome in order to evolve beyond war.

    The question is, are we humans still basically shit throwing monkeys, but with higher IQs and "better' shit to throw at each other?

    Some believe Human IQs have been dropping recently. Just in time for AI to "think" for us.

    Our key is geopolitical and domestic cooperation with each other. We must not let political differences overrule fundamental human imperatives. We have the resources. Will we have the will?
