    Way too close to truth to be funny.

    Is what we call moving forward? No wonder depression is at an all time high.

    Scary ending as it seems quite likely Trump’s mouth, and itchy twitter finger may get us bombed back to the Stone Age.

    I’ve learned that the problem with saying “things can’t get any worse” is that something almost inevitably proves me terribly wrong.

    Utterly ridiculous! We all know that Hillary ALREADY clubbed Nancy Pelosi to death…

    There is a moral void in this country. It’s not going to be filled by hypocritical fake “Christians”. It’s not going to get fixed by a morally corrupt president/congress. It can’t be properly addressed by a media that has the attention span of a squirrel.

    We’ll make America great, again, like it was in the Caveman days when they rode dinosaurs to work, like in the Flintstone documentary. Too bad the Dinosaurs didn’t fit in the ark, Am-I-Right?

    I’m getting tired of saying this, but the Bible makes no reference at all to Mary’s age or Joseph’s age. We have no idea how old or young either were at the times of Jesus’ conception and birth.

    You do realize that Trump has actually been publicly accused of not only actual harassment but also rape? You do realize that NOBODY in history has ever called “anybody to the right of Stalin a Nazi”? you do realize that the Democrats at the time of the civil war could not possibly be called “leftists” by any knowledgeable person? You do realize that the assault on Rand Paul had little or nothing to do with politics? And, as far as your “every known mass murderer was a Democrat”, that wins the award for most asinine comment ever. In history. So far……..

    How much more is “politically correct” going to change to accommodate the lowest of the low? This is almost like a Caribbean dance of limbo, a challenge, if you will, of “how low can you go”?

    Trump once infamously joked that he could shoot someone in the face in public and his followers would still love him. It’s probably the only true thing he ever said, as those followers continue to demonstrate to us.

    Ruben’s comic nicely demonstrates that today’s Republicans are really reactionaries, and NOT conservatives.

    ruben was a lot more funny/poignant when he stuck to general human commentary rather than attacking the current f@#$ in the whitehouse. he might as well be on cnncor msnbc. sad

    That’s all O.K.2018 is going to end with a move to remove all sociopathic and psychopathic abusers of power at all levels of western society—not just the top few who got caught.

    But it means everyone at every level needs to be responsible and call the authorities when they see abuse of power—including bribery, unethical business practices down to insulting people on the shop floor. (I know a trainer who abused her trainees emotionally and verbally for at least a year before someone called her to the boss…she doesn’t work there anymore.

    If nobody complains, these assholes will keep doing whatever they want forever…

    Many of them just want to ule everyone and take their stuff—including most of their waking lives, while returning nothing.

    A group of Tea Partyers proposed this as a platform plank: “Companies should not be subject to any rules or laws.”

    I asked, “Including murder?”

    “Yes.”

    Let’s turn our society into the one envisioned by our ancestors, where everyone was free to live and work at what they liked, without worry about their basic needs (you’re on your own for happiness…)

    Hunter-gatherers worked about 21 hours a week.

    We have a legal work-week of 40 hours, designed so one wage-erner could support a family.

    But the average family in American works 110 hours per week to barely survive, leaving them unable to spend time raising children, and constantly low on sleep.

    In 1965 the government projected that we would be working a 20 hour work week by 2001.

    Society as a whole has spent a lot of resources creating the machines and processes which have multiplied our productivity—but those who took control of them won’t let the people who made it possible to share in the gains.

    America has at least 50,000 out and out slaves, and millions stuck working for survival, working hours which destroy their health, their reasoning, and their abilities, leaving no time for family or education.

    Working 5 1/2 times the number of hours which is needed.
