Bipartisan ≠ non-partisan That said, the degree of stupid and evil in the parties today is drastically different.

End qualified immunity End drug prohibition Maybe cops will start having to find something productive to do with their time instead of harassing people over BS.

@ZboeC5 that's unnecessarily defeatist. We could take back sovereign control over our currency as soon as we elect a government with the will to do it. We'd have to end a lot more than the federal reserve, though, and end privatized banking entirely. Not that we shouldn't move all banking to the public sector, just that it's not the fed that's making most of the dollars in circulation, but private banking itself. This isn't even a new idea for the country. There was a debate among the founding fathers on if private banking should be legal. Like with a few other issues we've had to fix with the tools they gave us to change laws and the constitution, the wrong side won that debate then, and history proved the side that lost correct.

@stormisuedonym4599 bigotry is basically just a "matured" and systemic version of bullying...only with life and death consequences far more frequently than what happens in schoolyards in no small part because of the scale it happens on. Like schoolyards, though, the differences they use to turn people into an "other" are arbitrary excuses, used to try and justify the actions of people for whom kicking down (and kissing up) is the only way they can prop up their fragile sense of self worth. Why are you so defensive about someone pointing out the reality that police departments are generally full of bigots?

@thevalorousdong7675 wow, you are pathetically susceptible to fear mongering! 🥴 I'm not talking about something that hasn't already been tried successfully. Stopping treading drugs like a criminal problem and moving to treading them as medical problem is beneficial in every way measurable, unless you're a police state that just wants to use drugs as an excuse to bring the boot of the government down on people and lock them up (which is the whole reason the war on drugs exists in the first place) They've got you conditioned into unthinking cowardice!

@ZboeC5 rolling over for those at the top and letting them do as they please isn't the answer. Responding to the excessive concentration of power by conceding more power to them without resistance only makes things worse. Always has, always will in every era of history Also, while I agree that a government routinely paying interest for the use of its own currency is absurd, you're missing the more fundamental truth: money IS debt. In a functioning system, it is the debt we pay to those who we collectively owe which in the most basic form means those who work outside the market economy to make our civilization possible (soldiers, firefighters, people that pave roads, teachers, etc) and which we confirm the payment of (directly or indirectly) through paying taxes (which is what gives said debt tokens the universal demand which creates their market value). Every dollar that banks make out of thin air because of how lending works (which is the overwhelming majority of the dollars in circulation) is a dollar said bank has unilaterally declared that everyone paying taxes in dollars owes them. Every tax dollar someone weasels out of paying after ending up with billions because of the luck of being born (rather than into an impoverished jungle) into the engine of prosperity that enabled the creation of that wealth that is the result of generation after generation investing immeasurable labor of ever kind is a dollar of wealth a worker has been short changed. The federal reserve is a distraction from a far deeper and larger problem: for profit banking itself.

As if the cops would ever invoke it on them.

As long as politicians are or are owned by the rich and wealth keeps consolidating at the top, they will keep trying to find sneaky ways to squeeze ever more out of those who actually work for a living. That's why when they keep cutting taxes they quietly raise fees and fines. When the rich pay less, either you pay more or inflation goes up (or both). There's no way around that. This goes for every society, btw, not just the US.

And...you know...drug prohibition is total BS that just creates a black market that funds organized crime. It's amazing how we as a country learned this lesson with alcohol, and then managed to completely forget it.

There were 2 significant changes to airline security after 9/11. Locked hardened doors to the cockpits, and a shift in public perception of hijackings from "everyone be chill and wait for rescue or ransom" to "everybody dogpile anyone acting too erratic and duct tape him to the chair or they're going to crash us into a building or blow us up! Quick! Fight or die!" Basically everything else was security theater. Including the wars.

@prioris55555 and? The 3rd building you're referring to was hit by burning debris from one of the twin towers. Stop saying dumb shit you haven't fact checked.

It's a blatantly violation of the Constitution as anyone who can read can tell. They don't care and have corrupt legal precedent saying it's legal for them to violate your due process.

@ianbelletti6241 if the supreme court doesn't give a fuck what the constitution says on CAF, then they don't give a fuck what the constitution says on CAF. It doesn't matter what legal angle you want to use because it's not a mistake. It's an excuse. Press them from another angle and they'll find another reason why they just can't rule against the cops on this. The current court just ruled that evidence proving someone's innocence was not legal grounds to appeal a death sentence. Unfortunately your hope is merely naivety.

If we had decent highspeed rail in this country, the BS the TSA puts people through would be enough to drive most airlines out of business because they'd loose about 90% of their customers within a year.
