The Food Stamp economy.


Psst. You can't cry racism. Most people on food stamps are white. Furthermore since this is one of Obamas legacies, racism cant be said either. The writer of the article is black.

At 2 percent, the economy produces too few jobs to make a dent in the nearly 8 percent unemployment rate.

Also capitalism can't continue without a collapse, because capitalism requires permanent growth over time. This is at odds with the basic laws of physics, along with the basic fact that there's only so much of raw materials on Earth to be recovered.

This country has not been practicing capitalism for at least 100 years. In 1913 both the 16th amendment and Federal Reserve came into existence . This allowed the central bank (a private bank) to work in concert with the treasury department to manipulate currency, devalue it, cause bubbles and bursts and expand the growth of the federal government

Toss in the birth of the welfare state and military industrial complex and here we are

We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.


Ninth Amendment – Protection of rights not specifically enumerated in the Constitution.
The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people.
-tied to this:
Section 1. All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.

Section 5. The Congress shall have power to enforce, by appropriate legislation, the provisions of this article.

Made bold the relevant part. The Constitution clearly states that the government has an interest in helping all the citizens and through the 9th and 14th amendments, gives the right to the people to establish programs and agencies to help citizens. I'm sorry you led a life of privilege and are unaccustomed to the massive amount of money that is spent by the federal government to maintain your lifestyle.

the general welfare clause isn't welfare for some foreigner to come here and have kids and receive SNAP, EBT and other enttlements. It was for the 18 enumarated powers in which congress can tax people for like providing a navy and post offices and post roads for example. It wasn't an open ended wish regardless of wealth

The 9 th amendment is part of the bill of rights. The Bill of rights was never intended for the states. Unfortunately with incorporation it meant for the states, so now as a result for example with the Heller case in regards to gun ownership an unintended consequence will now be sweeping gun legislation to exploit the Sandy Hook shooting


The 14th amendment was intended for children of recently freed slaves and not to expose an anchor baby loophole so millions of women can come here and use their birth canals and children as cash cows. In regards to debt, the president can not act unilaterally to raise debt. Article II reads that he is the commander in chief of the military however the president can not declare war, that is the power of congress.


The constitution was to prevent a democracy and to prevent 51% of the people to vote themselves pay raises on the backs of the 49%


Since you want to bring up amendments you forgot to mention the 10th which prevents the federal government from having unlimited powers

Our structural deficit is 2%, so, yeah, we can keep our spending levels at normal rates. As a matter of fact, the December budget deficit was nearly eliminated.

No American president has or has needed to cut spending to address the deficit because the global economy requires America to create sovereign debt. Don't you remember when there was a massive budget surplus under Clinton that there was a legitimate fear that globalization was going to fail and America would be headed into a depression if it continued to not create debt?

"CDC has been wary of studying gun issues after NRA lobbyists convinced Congress to cut into its funding after a series of studies in the mid-1990s were viewed by the NRA as advocating for gun control."

Sure, but I would still expect them to be spending their time working on controlling diseases. Gun ownership not being a disease and all, I would think we could find a more appropriate department that is not an expert on diseases to handle these studies that are, once again, not about diseases.

Fair enough, and you and I certainly aren't going to untangle the federal government here, and I could see this falling under a mental health department of the CDC just because it happened to pop up there years ago. I work for a massive company, I see weird competencies in weird pockets of the organization fairly often.

Difference is, we realign those things into the places that can actually support them from an institutional level. The wonders you can do when the budget isn't tied to the department but the work being done.

protip: CDC is a public health and safety organization and has done great studies on workplace safety, despite workplace safety not being an issue with disease.

Also they've done tons of studies on child abuse, too, but no one was clamoring to stop them from doing that.

Just because the NRA is pissed their expensive lobbying efforts to stop the CDC from researching gun violence doesn't mean all of a sudden you can have an issue with what the CDC does.

This shit ain't a cafeteria, you can't pick and choose when to give a shit. Don't wait around for PR spin machines to tell you when to care.

Because the ATF right now is a fucking joke. It doesn't even have a LEADER (one was just nominated). It's been defunded and disavowed pretty much out of existence.

They're prevented by federal law from having ANY computerized database of gun owners. So they have to keep everything here on microfiche, which makes it time consuming and well-nigh impossible to even track who OWNS guns or transfer of ownership. It's dependent on the honesty of gun store owners, which is not a very good way to do things.

Check out this series from the Post a few years ago (http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2010/10/25/AR2010102505823.html)

Concerns about government regulation of gun ownership have limited the resources available to the ATF, led to strict regulatory restrictions and left the agency without leadership, according to interviews with dozens of former and current ATF officials and examination of thousands of pages of internal documents. The agency still has about the same number of agents it had nearly four decades ago: 2,500. The firearms bureau inspects only a fraction of the nation's 60,000 retail gun dealers, taking as much as eight years between visits to stores. By law, the ATF cannot require dealers to conduct a physical inventory to determine whether any guns have been lost or stolen.

and it's not so much an argument of what a state can handle, but if states SHOULD handle it, much less some of these things simply being illegal overall or not is an argument in itself. again, if you want to have true impact on issues like these you can't have gun laws in NY and nothing in NJ and hope to get real control.

I understand a template starting point and then some tweaks as Wyoming is completely different from NJ. Yet having mental health checks, registration and certain bans is just a common sense starting point, with NO FUCKING LOOPHOLES.

also, if a state wants to legalize something completely stupid like rape or meth it's cool by you? no need for national law there, just let a state in dire need of money legalize something like child labor (breaker boy style) and deregulate everything to make it dirt cheap for business at the expense of health, lives and overall safety? it's just to make a point that this state argument is annoying every time you want nothing done bc you don't agree on it.

though i get this point, and dont wanna feed the troll right now, i do have to make one counter on GUN policy only.

Certain states, though not alot, do carry certain risks that other states dont that pertain to guns. For example, I could understand why people in Alaska say, would want to have access to more powerful weapons, being alot of the weapons you can get in NJ say wouldnt be reliable weapons to use against a grizzly bear. Or if you are in Maine and want to hunt moose or something huge like that. Where we live, no, there is no need for "assault" weapons beyond people shooting them at ranges for enjoyment. But there are states with bigger threats where I could see why they would want slightly different policies

I'm not for this clear ban, but I have no issue with the template safety and background system, no more gun show quick sales and outright flooding of the country with guns just to make money with no care who they are going to. I stated as much with my NJ to Wyoming take. Yet again, I don't even think someone in NJ should not be allowed to legally own something someone in Wyoming could, just perhaps some more safety, limits and needs rundown for both. Obviously places like Alaska can make a better case for need and numbers, while NJ there could be limits to stop outright stockpiling and stupidity.

Simply put, there is no easy answer, but something needs to be attempted and constantly adjusted for the times, weapons and events of our time.

so part of the blame should go to the NRA and those in line with it for not trying to compromise at a better time for a more balanced approach that is probably closer to the answer. eventually the other side will be in power and push will come to shove when things throw fuel on the fire like this. a fire that has been burning for years as I already stated. to me, both sides should have been working through this issue much better over the years versus one stopping everything and anything from happening and the other wanting outright bans at times.

just FYI, "assault" weapons have been banned in NJ since 1994. when the federal ban lifted, state laws still kept it in place. even compared to NY, NJ is VERY strict when it comes to guns. You cant even buy a BB gun in NJ without getting the same license you would need to buy a shotgun, unless its an airsoft BB gun that isnt high powered.

My overall position is, people want things for reasons other than need. People want guns like that cause they look badass, are fun to shoot, enjoy using them in video games, etc. Most people are not gonna ever do anything bad with it, so they should be allowed to get them. But we really needed to address how we check up on people before they buy those. It should be more strict than certain kinds of other guns. And there shouldnt be BS loopholes, etc.

I would make it similar to handguns. Where you have to go get a separate permit, with serial number, and separate checks for each individual gun you buy. But MOST IMPORTANT, we should put in regulations where the semi auto civilian guns can NOT be the same mechanisms as the autos, allowing someone with 150 bucks and even avg knowledge of guns to make a semi into a fully automatic. Im sure we can figure out a way to stop that. Thats the real issue about assault rifles. Its very easy to make them automatic weapons

this is what scares people. They made weed illegal a long time ago, and really pursued that since the 70's. People, including a large amount of government, have seen that it doesnt work. They have seen good people have their lives ruined cause they got locked up for smoking weed one night. We know its no worse, and probably safer for people than cigs and alcohol. But no one will do anything. Its been 40 fuckin years.

It would be great if we would try stuff and see how it works, and stop it if it doesnt work. But when we do that, and it doesnt work, we just keep trying it, and never really tweak it much either. Its so fuckin stupid. Thats why people are fighting so hard right now against this gun shit. Not because they think its bad or cant see why you would do it (not all of them anyway), but because they think that its never gonna go away then.

What if there is an event with more than 1 shooter? The police could be outarmed

are you kidding? if there was an incident with say 4 shooters, there would be 9000 police there. Any major incident where someone is coming with that kind of thunder, a hostage situation say, or like those guys in LA in the body armor and machine guns, you would have swat who comes in with machine guns and large capacity magazines. Its not just 2 patrol firing away with there sidearm. Even most cop cars have a shotgun in the trunk incase they need more fire power.

99% of the time a police officer is going to be firing his sidearm, 7 shots will be more than enough to get the job done if he isnt a moron. You think a call comes in to the police about a shooting and they send 1 fuckin cop?

Thats the problem that I have with overpolicing. Theres no need to cordon offf a 30 block radius if there is a robbery at 1 bank.

If 80% of the force is at one location, that leaves criminals almost carte blanche to commit crimes in other locations because most of the resources are at location A.

I agree that more rounds doesn't always mean taking the shooter down, but why limit it to 7 rounds?


Were police departments asked when the bill was written that 7 is a limit? Why not 8?


Im not trying to be a wiseass on the amount of rounds but the bill was rushed as a knee jerk reaction without putting much emphasis on it.

the limiting rounds of the cops to seven is just a stupid tie in to a policy long debated overall...not knee jerk, just top of mind and in the news for over a month now even with the latest tragedy. so a topic always in debate and quashed/put off via NRA pressure/influence is now on the front page versus the middle/back and it's knee-jerk...sure thing.

Its always the document never the fact that its not applied. Of course you would say something like that. Memo. We didnt get to 16 trillion overnight. 100 years of income taxes, the federal reserve, undeclared wars after WW2, the birth of the welfare state, military industrial complex and police state are factors.


You remind me of pseudo intellectual Bill Maher. Last night he had Bob Kerrey and Maher was droning on how SD has the same amount of Senators as CA without bringing up the purpose of the senate. He did not say CA has a hell of a lot more reps in the house

No one is going to let that happen to Beyonce.

It's pretty safe to assume that most are lip synching nowadays. But it's not like she was lip synching to someone else's vocals.

No one said to boycott her music. This isn't an impeachable offense and not the biggest story in the country


However Clarkson and Taylor didn't lip sync.

Mickelson has really fucked up his image, that's why he backtracked. A majority of his cash comes from endorsements, so he needed to stop the damage he did to his own brand.

not to mention a good bit of his income is taxed at the much lower capital gains rate, and he has so many write offs, id be shocked if he is even paying 45% total in taxes

It sounds like he wasn't happy about the state income tax rate . CA voters chose to raise it to 13%

Tiger Woods said one of the reasons why he's in FL is that there's no state income tax.


Jeter had a huge tax bill for NY a few years back and his residence is in FL now.

yea thats not what it was about why he got shit on. First off, he made the retarded comment that he is now going to be payin like 64% in total taxes, which isnt even close. The other problem is he made 48 mill last year and is whining to a bunch of broke americans about his tax burden

After years of being the doofus on the tour, the guy really took off in popularity after Tiger's personal life train wrecked. It's hilarious to see him fuck himself over like that through sheer ignorance.

I remember when he won the Masters a couple of years ago after all the Tiger Woods shit had hit the fan. It was kind of nauseating how the announcers were talking about what a great guy he is, making pretty pointed comparisons between him and Tiger Woods. Which was kind of amusing, because Mickelson always had a reputation of being a real douche -- I mean, that's how he got his nickname, "FIGJAM". (Look it up)

What's always made me laugh is how he became the "likeable guy". After years of Woods kicking his ass repeatedly, he embraced second place & developed a "family man" image (anti-Tiger) just to cash in. The irony is that the PR/image campaign worked for awhile, but the inherent nature of a human eventually rises to the top.

He is what he always has been: a bitter, jealous also-ran to Tiger. I'm glad that he could remind us of that fact.

The progressive income tax is one of the worst ideas ever. It has created more cheats loopholes over the last 100 years. The other institution celebrating a 100th birthday is the Federal Reserve.

Since the Military will be opening up combat roles for women including some elite forces, Will there be requirements for women to sign up for selective service?


If we are equal, women should be subject to the draft.

I agree that the loopholes are a joke. Eliminate them.

However the "fair tax" is a regressive tax in reality as it actually raises taxes on those with the least among us. We are better than that.

Basic necessities like food, fuel etc wouldn't be taxed. It wouldn't be a burden on the poor

Technically Selective Service does register you for the draft.

However the draft hasn't been used since Vietnam. I'm sure when WF's imaginary war with Mexico starts we'll use it again.

Since this country doesn't like to declare war anymore, there probably wont be a draft.
