  • You think that’s bad, you should take a gander at the official news sources in Jacksonville Florida. I don’t know if they’re still this bad, but as I recall they have not one, but at least two big news publications, both produce articles that look like they were written by grade schoolers. Anything that wasn’t copy/pasted from the AP seems to be written hastily by somebody who dropped out before understanding English. I’m sure many other cities have the same issue. The one is called news five or Jax 5 news, and the other is first coast news. They’ll hire anybody to write apparently.


  • I don’t think the premise holds water.

    How can one have congressional support for an issue which actually helps people? Is helping people, in this instance, the most profitable choice for the individual representative? Because they do not care about the betterment of humankind, and they are no longer beholden to the people. The representative at large is a warmongor, an oil baron beneficiary, a gun lobby shill, a two-bit huckster, a thief, and an active erodor of democratic principles. There is no such thing as congressional support among two opposing parties, whose real goals both are aligned against the people, in that, again… If helping people isn’t the number one most convenient, profitable, best way to get somebody else’s ass kissed, it ain’t even a priority. We need to do something about the fascism problem first, then melt the guns into participation trophies for the men who carry them now. Problem solved.


















  • It’s pretty simple actually. Big companies took billions upon billions of dollars in federal subsidies and grants handed out to them via taxation of the public, then when they got just about done building the thing they spent all our money on, they erected a nice shiny gate at the front and charged us admission. But not before bribing donating to criminals politicians to ensure zero competition or risk to their non-investment. It’s rampant capitalism defined.
