  1. You also definitely can't have an honest conversation. As your last two posts prove. You are the only one who claimed you know what every minority thinks. I know of several who don't agree with you but hey, I must be the one wrong right. It is completely obvious you have no understanding of minorities, I doubt you have ever talked to one seriously about issues. I will give you a clue, they are individuals just like us white guys and they don't all think the same as you. HA! HA! HA! HA! HA! HA! HA! HA!
  2. How do you know what Mueller has found? We all know what Mueller has found it seems as his investigation leaks like a sieve. You, Retro and the rest of your buttbuddies post leaks several times a week.
  3. The musings of the ignorant media brainwashed and ivory tower mind. Sure it is logical to vote democratic as a minority. If your purpose is to support the most racist party in existence who has promised and promised and over and over delivered less for you than republicans. The democrats in 2008 ran on immigration reform. Ran on fixing the issue for the dreamers. Giving immigrants here illegally a path to citizenship. Republicans would have voted for some of these issues. Democrats didn't need republican votes they could have passed any of these issues on their own with unstoppable majorities in the House and Senate, no one could even filibuster them. What did they do for their important minority voters on the immigration issue? They didn't bring a single immigration bill up for vote. That is what democrats think of you YRB. The media and your professors have you so brainwashed common sense has totally eluded you.
  4. So the fact I pointed out you were pasting your views of the world on minorities means I claim I know what they think? Your world sure is simple. You are right even when you are wrong. I know that minorities like all populations have many individuals who think many ways. I also know Hispanics are a very socially conservative group. I also know as a politician who knocked doors and talked to people for years that many legal immigrants are extremely upset with illegal immigration. So what experience have you had with minorities. Have you ever went around and knocked doors in your community and talked with them? I bet as a typical city person you don't even know all the people who live in your apartment complex let alone 100 feet down the block.
  5. It is a historically democratic position that they campaign on and do the opposite when in power. It is always humorous to watch the democrats currently dissemble on this issue.
  6. You or some of your fellow hypocrites post a thread of Mueller links at least weakly hypocrite.
  7. So you have no idea if this is comparable to clinton. I doubt she has a security clearance. you saying so means nothing as you are a proven liar. I doubt there was any classified information sent. So this is much ado about nothing. Yet if she broke the law every conservative would say she needs to be prosecuted. No tarmac meeting will save her.
  8. Pelosi had two years to pass anything she wanted and only managed to pass the ACA a worthless bill and they had to change senate rules to do that. She couldn't even manage an immigration bill, but of course the democrats have no intention of ever passing immigration reform and pissing off their Union bosses, they just like the issue. Pretty funny your measure of success makes Trump with his tax cut legislation and and 2 supreme court judges in two years, look wildly successful in comparison. We have had the JV in government for 20 years now. They are all pretty much disasters.
  9. Did she send or receive classified information? Does she even have a security clearance. You are laughable hypocrite.
  10. Why would you say that, she had several years in the leadership with a democratic senate and a democratic president and got very little done. Results say she is a very poor speaker.
  11. https://crimeresearch.org/2013/12/murder-and-homicide-rates-before-and-after-gun-bans/ Every place that has banned guns (either all guns or all handguns) has seen murder rates go up. You cannot point to one place where murder rates have fallen, whether it’s Chicago or D.C. or even island nations such as England, Jamaica, or Ireland. For an example of homicide rates before and after a ban, take the case of the handgun ban in England and Wales in January 1997 (source here see Table 1.01 and the column marked “Offences currently recorded as homicide per million population,” UPDATED numbers available here). After the ban, clearly homicide rates bounce around over time, but there is only one year (2010) where the homicide rate is lower than it was in 1996. The immediate effect was about a 50 percent increase in homicide rates. Firearm homicide rate had almost doubled between 1996 and 2002 (see here p. 11). The homicide and firearm homicide rates only began falling when there was a large increase in the number of police officers during 2003 and 2004. Despite the huge increase in the number of police, the murder rate still remained slightly higher than the immediate pre-ban rate.
  12. It is your claim, you google it. I realize this is far too complicated for you but regulation and tax rates are both business expenses, you can't have a conversation about one without talking about the other. Everyone with real world experience knows this. No i called your ideas idiotic. Which they are has everyone has been disproven. Not that you will ever admit it, teacher.
  13. What is the effective tax rate in China? The top number means nothing. Not to mention most companies in china are at least partly government owned. Have little regulation to comply with especially costly environmental legislation. You are so out of your depth teacher it isn't even worth the time. Not to also mention your 25% claim isn't completely accurate. https://www.pwccn.com/en/services/tax/accounting-and-payroll/overview-of-prc-taxation-system.html Corporate income tax ("CIT") - standard tax rate is 25%, but the tax rate could be reduced to 15% for qualified enterprises which are engaged in industries encouraged by the China government (e.g. New/high Tech Enterprises and certain integrated circuits production enterprises). Tax holiday is also offered to enterprises engaged in encouraged industries. Other CIT incentives are also available for tax resident enterprises in China.
  14. You have proved over and over you're an idiot. You keep posting stuff that supports my position, that is outdated by decades and then claim victory. You can't compete outside a school room where you are king with a teaching education.
  15. You presented a graph with 20 random countries on it. You do realize there are almost 200 countries out there. The fact the U.S. tax rate is in the top 10% proves my point nor yours. You are the one dodging or basically to ignorant to even understand what you are posting. Japan and the UK are both economies in decline. South Korea has very low regulatory environment, if you want to get rid of all those environmental laws and create a whole bunch of tax free zones you can have South Korea's tax rates. Plus your graph shows Germany has an effective tax rate almost 1/2 the U.S. effective tax rate completely blowing your claims out of the water. You just proves U.S. tax rates are in the top 10% of all countries by your graph. Including higher than many big economies like Canada, Germany and China. Not to mention far higher than emerging economies like Brazil, Russia, Mexico, South Africa, India and hundreds of others. Your graph proves my point idiot. Not to mention since 2005 almost all those countries have lowered their effective tax rates significantly. https://www.ato.gov.au/General/New-legislation/In-detail/Direct-taxes/Income-tax-for-businesses/Reducing-the-corporate-tax-rate/ https://www.reuters.com/article/us-japan-economy-tax/japans-ruling-bloc-approves-big-corporate-tax-cut-to-encourage-wage-hikes-idUSKBN1E80KR TOKYO (Reuters) - Japan’s ruling bloc approved a plan on Thursday to slash the corporate tax rate to around 20 percent from 30 percent - but only for companies that raise wages aggressively and boost domestic capital spending.
  16. Trump has fucked up everything. First he isn't a republican he is an opportunist with democratic party policies for the most part. Second he is a dolt, that still baffles me he was elected president. I think stupid is a requirement to become president it sure fits the last 3. Clinton was the last president we had who you had to admit was a smart guy. Democrats did real good running on an anti Trump platform and attaching the Trump label on Laxalt which he deserved and Heller which he really didn't deserve. I am really rooting for Mueller to hook up Trump on some real crime so he can't run in 2020 and a republican like Nikki Haley can take his place. I am kind of hoping that is why she resigned because she thinks the 2020 door will close for Trump and open for her.
  17. There are tax rates lower and higher on your graph right? We are competing, just like I said over and over. There are a whole bunch more far lower than Germany not on your graph like Ireland. Not to mention your graph is only looking at one piece of the pie. Regulation, infrastructure and a whole lot of other considerations that impact corporate decisions far beyond just tax rate and many corporations in our country are highly regulated.
  18. Come on you are smarter than that. Nice straw man argument. Not to mention the G league would be much more valuable if it didn't have to compete in Reno against a UNR team that doesn't have to negotiate pay, gets to use government subsidies for an arena and gets to operate tax free. If your choice was to watch a truely amature UNR team of actual chemistry and math majors or a G league team with the Martin brothers making a million a year I bet you would be at the G league game or alone in a very small gym on campus. This is america, employees of colleges deserve to be able to negotiate their pay. Professors can negotiate their pay and none of them have the value of a starter on the basketball team or the QB on the football team. They deserve to be able to negotiate pay just like every other American.
  19. So you think all immigrants have the same political positions you have. Not to mention the republicans have never had a "kick out the immigrants", policy. They have had an enforce the laws of the United States policy, including its immigration law which would mean illegal immigrants should be removed and sent back to their native country. Not to mention Reagan who if you didn't notice was a republican passed the only immigration law in the last 7 decades that legalised illegal immigrants. Democrats on the other hand have continually opposed immigration reform with a racist motivation in order to keep their Union support happy. Which has the consequence of making California rich man friendly with plenty of illegal house keeper help.
  20. They didn't alienate Hispanics. The entertainment industry did that for them with decades of brain washing, telling them that republicans were racist. There is no policy reason Hispanics would vote for democrats. They have done nothing to help them in recorded history. If democrats helped minorities there wouldn't be democratically controlled cities everywhere in this country where their crime rates, schools and living conditions were not far below the average. California would be a utopia for minorities instead of the state with the biggest income gap between rich and poor in the nation. The democratic policies though insure your billionaires have plenty of low cost below minimum wage illegal house servants available though.
  21. Which are not freely negotiated because the NCAA prohibits free negotiation. We prosecute Google and tech companies for far less. Why are you fine with the exploitation of kids some of them not even 18 yet and okay with prosecuting Google for being unfair to engineers making 6 figure salaries? People roll their eyes because they are jealous and nothing more. Under your logic Google, Apple, Amazon and others should create the FANG institution which would mandate engineers be amateur and not receive anything more than scholarships to watch UTube and a training table to eat at.
  22. Californians republican party has changed far more than the national party. California republicans are where the democrats were in the 70's. The National republican party has moved left as well but not as much.
  23. Sure they do, You link, that is one not plural, totally supported my position that we needed to lower tax rates to remain competitive with the rest of the world. Your link even showed the decline of corporate tax collections because the corporate tax rates are so high no one is incorporating anymore. It is too costly to justify the benefits. So less people to tax equals less taxes collected as a percentage of GDP. Just because I was right when I guessed you worked for the government most likely as a teacher. Doesn't mean i was attacking you. I was just making an informed observation. When I attack your 19th century class warfare arguments for the boring and disproved archaic relics they are. That was an attack on your ideas not you. Your motivation is jealousy whether you want to admit it or not. After all you are free to exploit the corporate tax rates you feel are such a great deal. You just don't have the cojones to do so. So like all small minds you have to blame someone else for your lack of success. That was an attack on you just to be clear. So now we are even.
  24. Then why did every campaign commercial in Nevada do so. Even the democratic candidates were running from Pelosi. Not to mention all the other candidates all across the country running from Pelosi both democrat and republican. I guess being professional politicians they must not be as smart as you.
