I think it's only the Qderpers who think there's a conspiracy here. The truth is, as it is painfully often with the federal and provincial governments, incompetence. They're not targeting small businesses, but at the end of the day, they're an acceptable casualty in the fights against case...

How much freedom do you think you'd actually give up if you had universal health care? Would that impede your freedom of speech? Freedom of movement? Your freedom to participate in the democratic process? What freedom specifically would be violated by moving to universal healthcare?

Fair enough

You didn't bother with the homework assignment, did you?

It's not an attempted coup in practice, because it doesn't have the characteristics of a coup, unlike the actual attempted coup a few weeks ago. I don't believe that any of the people who called on the electors in 2016 actually thought this had more of a snowball's chance in hell at succeeding...

No, they didn’t. They were calling on the electors to fulfill one of their original functions: to act as a line of defense against mob rule. One of the reasons you have electors in the first place is so they could cast a vote independent of the actual votes, in case, say...the uneducated masses...

Fun little homework assignment for you: actually go and find out - not from Breitbart - how the economy was doing post-2009 recession. Spoiler Alert: it definitely wasn't a 'sinking ship', unless sinking ship means continually improving. For bonus points, check the trended unemployment numbers...

Thanks to Trump, everyone is paying more for PC hardware during a pandemic when demand is already totally out of control. Which makes sense of course, because any day now, the US will become the chief producer of semiconductors. I'm not sure, but people are saying that by this time next year...

He didn't transfer ownership, he passed control to his sons. Massive difference. Also, this (just as an example): https://www.forbes.com/sites/danalexander/2020/09/18/trumps-100-million-mistake-how-retaining-ownership-of-his-hotels-cost-the-president-a-fortune/

1. Inciting an insurrection isn't a freedom of speech issue. 2. A president can be impeached after he leaves office. But great analysis here, bud. <YeahOKJen>

The defining difference here being that these protests weren't a rejection of the result, specifically they were not alleging widespread voter fraud, but rather a reflection of the sentiment that Trump was absolutely unfit for the presidency.....which of course turned out to be 100% accurate.

Keep in mind you're quoting a Canadian. If you're unfamiliar with our system, it's basically the Mango Unchained supporters' worst nightmare. Yet, I hear very little complaining about all the socialism going on up here. It's almost like it actually works in practice, but that couldn't be true...

No change. Over the last 4 years it's become blatantly evident that a substantial part of your population is pathologically deluded. Case in point: you just had hundreds of people trying to stage an insurrection, most of whom didn't even bother to mask their identity, which leads to the...

Ah yes, guys, some dude who works for PBS who nobody's ever heard of said some questionable shit in what was clearly a social, not an official, setting. Let's get super outraged by this, insurrections are so last week.

So in his last days, he relentlessly pedaled a conspiracy theory, much to the detriment of the whole country, then is caught on tape trying to do the very thing he's accused others of, then proceeds to get 5 people killed a block away from where he lives. Best transition period ever, smoother...

Trumpsters are willfully ignorant (or dismissive) of the fact that the world order largely relies on a predictable USA. You do X, US responds with Y. You do A, US responds with B. X, Y, A and B are knowns. They're predictable outcomes. Under Trump however, that status quo has been seriously...

It's also disregarding the fact that whatever progress was made with Iran was erased. Not only erased, but the current status is worse than it's ever been in the last decade. Yes, great, the allies aren't at war with Iran currently, but Iran is out for blood. If a conflict arises, which doesn't...

They were given an ultimatum demanding what should be an entirely reasonable part of the application. In 2021, it's recklessly negligent not to have a coherent moderator strategy for your platform, if only for the risk that your platform will be used by China, Russia and Iran to distribute...

He's single handedly cemented that status since losing the election. Whatever he might have had going for him, e.g. renegotiating trade agreements with minor, but admittedly incremental gains for the US, now absolutely pales in comparison to the way he put an exclamation mark at the end of his...

Interesting card to play considering this week's events.
