Cities hosting the WC almost never recoup their investments. Sure, it's a windfall for a select few, but it is a bad investment for everyone else.

I'll do it. After all, I can't possibly fuck it up worse than the last guy.
When is Harris' anti-oligarchy rally? Obama's? LOL, Pelosi's? Why the fuck does this one guy who should be retiring on a beach somewhere have to keep dragging the entire Democratic party? I love Bernie, but it's beyond pathetic that after all these years it's still his job.
The one silver lining is that Trump voters are about to face reality in a way would never otherwise have to deal with. I really wish that took the edge off, but it really doesn't. The impacts of this election will be horrific to everyone, even those who will profit in the short term from the graft and corruption.
Anybody that the Republicans put in charge of any federal agency is there for the purpose of destroying that agency. I used to think defense was an exception but, given Republican's new found love for Russia, I don't think that can be assumed any longer.
If humanity were proactive enough to do this, then we wouldn't need to do it at all.
There are very few people in the world that are more worthless than Democratic political consultants.
he said he wouldnt drop out unless "lord god" told him too.
I don't think that's exactly a fair characterization. He was being given a list of one person after another with "what if X asked you to drop out?". It would be complete idiocy for him to say yes to any of that. So, he used the "lord God" expression to make it clear that his answer wasn't going to change. Whether or not he is open to dropping out, he's not going to nod in that direction publicly unless he's already decided to do it. Frankly, it was a dumb line of questioning.
There is a guy in my area that runs a wolf refuge and therefore has a zoo license. Local police took possession of an illegally owned black bear cub and came to him because it was too domesticated to release and they couldn't find a zoo that would take it. He refused but then relented because the next option was euthanasia. Now his wolf sanctuary has a black bear that he raised by hand and does "wrestling" shows with. He and the bear pretend to wrestle in a bunch of different poses. The bear could snap him like a twig, but is clearly very affectionate towards him.
We had a massively underutilized golf course next to our subdivision that shut down. Within a year or two nature moved back in and it was beautiful with a thick hedge between it and "civilization". I'd go in there and see deer, and a variety of raptors on the regular. Then they ripped it all up for new homes all built in identical rows like army barracks.
I agree that it's frustrating that Democrats use shitty Republicans as an excuse to be just a tiny bit less shitty. However, it's getting really annoying that you can't criticize Trump without someone chiming in with "whadabout Biden?!" and you can't criticize Biden without getting a "whadabout Trump?!"
Shit! I just paid for a vassecectomy!
