Re: Puterbac News Network and Political Discussion Thread
Had a hell of a lot more than three strikes. I've also had a couple singles and doubles. I was paid well at those strike-out jobs but since I don't have them anymore, I guess you could call them great paid temp jobs (that's about it.) And I sold my piece of shit house in the slums for a profit so..... it wasn't all bad.Jungle Rat wrote:So let's see.

Looks like there's gonna be another war in the Middle East. OpEd will show up any minute and say the Israelis are committing genocide.

Re: Puterbac News Network and Political Discussion Thread
http://www.latimes.com/news/politics/la ... 3786.storyHas America gone from center-right to center libertarian?
A survey of last Tuesday’s electoral landscape suggests the truth may be somewhere in the middle. The results cut heavily against the notion of a center-right dominance, at least when it comes to social issues.
After 32 straight losses for same-sex wedding laws, four states approved marriage-equality proposals last week. Two other states legalized marijuana for recreational purposes. Wisconsin elected the first openly homosexual U.S. senator in history, Tammy Baldwin. An Iowa Supreme Court justice targeted for removal because he voted in 2007 to approve gay marriage, David Wiggins, defeated an effort to oust him. And, crucially, Obama won with 60% of voters telling exit pollsters they supported the president’s call for higher taxes on the rich.
A more precise verdict would be that the majority of the country remains slightly right of center when it comes to supporting lower spending, decreased debt and smaller government. But America appears to have shifted left of center in allowing more liberal policies on drugs and the institution of marriage. So, left on social issues and right on economics. If you eliminated the desire to tax the rich, it would sound like we had a center-libertarian nation.
