  1. SCOTUS justices should serve for a specified amount of time and then face mandatory retirement. No more than ten years. They can go on to teach or do the lecture circuit or just drive around in a motor home.

  3. Not really - the sale or bartering of peoples vote has a long and storied tradition in US politics - elsewhere as well. Politics has always been a dirty business practiced by people of low morals and even fewer scruples. (let's see if this version makes it past the word police and stays up)

  9.  @jakebarnes28  Most YouTube videos have a number of trigger words that cause a post to be automatically removed. They differ from creator to creator so it's difficult to know what might cause it to happen. It's probably happened to you and you just don't know it as you seem like the kind of troll that doesn't really care about what happens to your comments after you make them.

  10. Anyone who doesn't have a problem with Citizens United has something wrong with them.
