If #DonaldTrump had his way this would indeed be coming to a USA near you, and the #GOP would gladly go down that hole with him. Luckily the Democrats have a say. In #TrumpNation if the president does it it must be presidential.

Whoa! This is a travesty.

Whoa! This is a travesty. One farmer told him of his horror: "I was too scared to enter the barn in the mornings ... they were monstrosities you didn't want to see." Researchers also found an alarming 65 per cent of the shepherds of Quirra had cancer. The news hit Sardinia hard. It reinforced their worst fears while also challenging their proud international reputation as a place of unrivalled natural beauty. The military hit back, with one former commander of the Quirra base saying on Swiss TV that birth defects in animals and children came from inbreeding.

As a reminder Voodoo Conservative economics don't work. Never have and never will.

As a reminder Voodoo Conservative economics don't work. Never have and never will. Originally shared by Sarah Rios All the way back from 2012, discovered in a Twitter comment: Non-Partisan Congressional Tax Report Debunks Core Conservative Economic Theory-GOP Suppresses Study Initially released on September 14, 2012, the study—authored by Thomas Hungerford who is a specialist in public finance at the C.R.S.—correlated the historical fluctuations of the highest income tax rates and tax rates on capital gains dating back to World War II with the economic growth (or lack of the same) that followed. The conclusion? Lowering the tax rates on the wealthy and top earners in America do not appear to have any impact on the nation’s economic growth. ... Not surprisingly, the results of the study caught the attention of a great many conservatives—so much so that, according to a New York Times piece, Republican’s in the United States Senate successfully pressured the Congressional Research Se...

I've said it multiple times and I'll say it again: #TrumpNation is the culmination of 40 years of conservative ideology run amok. If nothing else, Trump’s election has disclosed some home truths to a group of Americans who “were asleep, but now maybe are awake”, he says. Among these truths are “that America is not over its racism. That we still have a lot of work to do. That we still have a long way to go to become an equitable and fair nation that lives up to the values that it proclaims to the rest of the world. #DonaldTrump Originally shared by Michael o'donnell A very interesting read on what has happened in the US over the last few decades. ‘We've dug ourselves a really deep hole’ – David Neiwert on the rise of the far right https://www.theguardian.com/world/2019/jan/27/american-exceptionalism-has-to-die-david-neiwert-on-the-rise-of-the-far-right?CMP=Share_AndroidApp_Google%2B https://www.theguardian.com/world/2019/jan/27/american-exceptionalism-has-to-die-david-ne...

I won't say where I'm at, let's just say it's a restaurant I don't frequent due to all the extra carbs.

I won't say where I'm at, let's just say it's a restaurant I don't frequent due to all the extra carbs. Regardless, I decide to order the "Make Your Own Mac" (and Cheese) option and the waitress asks me if I want white or beer cheese. "What's beer cheese?" I ask. "You know, it's like regular cheese. Yellow cheese." "What do you mean 'regular yellow cheese'? Lots of cheeses are yellow," I reply. "What's it taste like?" "Like regular cheese," she said. "Like you would find in Kraft Mac'n Cheese." Um, I'll have the white. Oh, and I'm having and Apricot Blonde Ale by Drydock Brewing.

And we have a very valid point being made here.
