    7 reasons you should buy a gun, post San Bernadino

    Buy a gun because you live your life in fear? That the long and short? If I were to buy a gun it would be because I wanted to go to the range, not so it could sit at home and collect dust while some asshole shoots me at the supermarket.

    The have a recess every year, don't they? 7 or so previous recesses under Obama just bad timing to stage an execution and start to implement your master plan to take over the planet?

    The never-ending POTUS Election Tracker....

    Except as Republicans have already said they will, they can drag it out. If Obama was going to murder a justice, why not do it years ago prior to any of his big Supreme Court issues being heard? As an aside, Trump angle of saying Cruz is full of shit was strengthened when the moderator called...

    Not sure there's anything fishy about an 80 year old person passing away.

    The video of the announcement to the plant was hard to watch.

    Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, and CHIP account for 48% of federal spending. The Military accounts for 18% and there aren't many politicians who talk about cutting defense spending. Interest on national debt is 7%. These numbers are from 2014. That's almost 3/4ths of the entire federal...

    Who told you this, or where are you getting this from? You've said this before and I can't help but wonder who in the hell is even saying this. Is there a politician or some media person out there propagating this idea? The "stimulus" only provided $105B for infrastructure over 10 years. It...

    The correlation may be there but cause-effect is not established. I don't think it proves or disproves anything. Minimum wage increases could increase cost of living, or perhaps the minimum wage was increased in response to the climbing cost of living. Do you think the cost of living would...

    It's not really a matter of willingness. At some point, funding for Medicare and Medicaid will have to increase. When the tail end of the boomers start collecting retirement and utilizing their Medicare resources the costs are going to increase significantly. When the Federal Poverty Line...

    And as the cost of living continues to increase without any sort of increase in wages, more and more people will qualify for government assistance. The Federal Poverty Level is not stagnant. It has increased by 40% (for a single individual) since 2000. Without wages going up, that means more...

    The never-ending POTUS Election Tracker....

    My comment wasn't even addressing that. My comment was talking about the fact that a minimum wage worker qualifies for government assistance. Minimum wage doesn't put someone over the limit to be ineligible for Medicaid in most states. Essentially, the general population gets to pay these...

    Actually, that would be the total for National Healthcare Expenditures. So, what was spent on everyone by the government, employers, and out of pocket.

    The never-ending POTUS Election Tracker....

    At face value, I agree. Of course the reality is that nearly everybody who is not intelligent WILL BE voting and their numbers are so great that no amount of rational voters can do anything to change the outcomes. Roughly 2/3rds of the country that votes is entirely sold on party affiliation...

    Trump is a lost cause, David. Dude supports Universal Healthcare.

    What if he was open about it? Any chance? To be entirely honest, I'd vote for a gay Rubio before I would vote for Cruz. Cruz has to be the biggest scumbag in politics right now, and I barely even know anything about the guy. All I know is that he looks like someone you wouldn't let watch...

    Private ownership will cease to exist if Bernie is elected just as it has ceased to exist throughout the rest of the planet.

    Socialism ends private ownership over the means of production. Haven't heard any candidate champion that idea. I doubt anyone would even endorse such an idea. The big distinction I guess would be that Democratic Socialism can be 100% in favor of private ownership of the means of production...

    Hold on, you got an outside shot with Bernie.....well, in terms of getting the bigger percentage. Doesn't Iowa go proportional on the delegates?
