If you voted for Trump, you support him & you own him forever. Fuck your "safe space"

[cowslinger64]

Harpy you're all over this thread, give it up, he is a shitty person who doesn't belong in the Oval Office. I know lawyers like to argue, but damn, it's ok to concede defeat. It doesn't make you less of a man.

He's too much of an ignoramus to realize he's always wrong. Sad.

 

[schism666]

Voter opinion is 100% irrelevant to the structure and function of our government.

The budget ball is always in the Houses court.....short of a total government restructuring it will never not be.

It's so in their court all the rest of the gov. has to do is say no and they are dead in the water.

BUTT!!! Since Trump pussed out on saying no, the house gets a pass from the executive branch and Ol' Mitch "the Turtle" McConnell is probably rage quitting as we speak.

when you went back to edit this post why didn't you fix all of the other glaring public education mistakes?

I have always wondered why the gov is required to pay for security for private enterprise.

Make the airlines pay for them.

I have always wondered why the gov is required to pay for the security and integrity of of private property.

Make homeowners pay for the police and fire department.

(If the GOP eased up on corporate welfare, the airlines would be paying for their security the same way you do.)

God above, man.

 

[God_Above]

God above, man.

And all else. Have you a question?

Mr. Short Attention Span needs to get his GED before he embarrasses himself again.

Oh, haven't you heard? Botanydummy has "NUMEROUS" college degrees!!!


Can you get those before a GED? Lol

 

[srgreene]

Amen.

And, most of all, he's yours because you knew what a vile sleazeball he was before you voted for him (or didn't vote).

Among the two major party candidates, I judged he was the one who would do the nation less harm. I still think that way. Time will take care of Trump’s errors- Hillary would have been far more insidious. So would Warren and likely as host of other probable Dem candidates.

Bullshit. What you did was fall for a Russian disinformation campaign. The Russians can always count on there being morons like you.

 

[about_average]

Why is it irrelevant?

Because there was no way to privatize TSA during the shutdown.

I keep trying to tell you that the private prison thing and TSA aren't the same. Privatized prisons are corporations which have a "contract" with the gov. The TSA IS "the Gov" being used for private corporate purposes.

Right now the TSA is more like the ATC, Fed employees but working for civilian companies. That works for the ATC because the ATC isn't beholden to the passengers or the airlines. ATC also doesn't have control over who files and who doesn't, so long as you're operating within the rules and any NOTAMS or flight restrictions, ATC doesn't care. Actually, they don't care if you aren't operating with the rules. They'll warn you and then just notify the appropriate Gov authority before turning to the next aircraft on their screen after dismissing your blip.

Plus, you don't need ATC if you don't fly commercial. There is no requirement to even file a flight plan in most of America's airspace unless you're a commercial airline.

OTOH, TSA works directly with the passengers. THEY say who gets to board and who doesn't. THEY control who flies and who doesn't. This is a "gate guard" for a private corporation being paid by the taxpayer. Why?

So you're also in favor of the police only patrolling private neighborhoods since if business districts want security they should hire their own police force. I suppose businesses should hire their own fire departments too.
And the state police should ignore commercial vehicles on the highways.

 

[CandiCame]

Y'all not for nothing, but the far right DOES want that world- and goes even farther. The tea party (who's platform I think I already linked in this thread) want to do away with socialized police and fire-fighting forces in favor of privatization.

That's not really something to throw up like, "Taken to it's logical outcome this reasoning is ridiculous" because that is, in fact, exactly what they're advocating for. The fact that it's ridiculous isn't an impediment to them. That is actually the world they want.

 

[KeithD]

And they'd quickly find out how much more expensive and consuming of their time and attention for inferior services that would be.

 

[BotanyBoy]

Sure you are

Not foaming at the mouth over everything Trump does doesn't make me a "trump hon" whatever that shit is.

That's not the far right, you're just far left.

Inferior services?much more expensive?

LOL We aren't taking about the lame ass government and it's dog shit services.

I hope you realize that there are SEVERAL "private" fire departments in the US. I also hope you're informed enough to know that SOME fire departments are staffed only by volunteers. There seem to be no problems with those.

The police and fire depts are public services. Just like with public schools there are also private counterparts. But all of that is beside the point because we're not talking about serving the public at large when we're talking about TSA. In that particular case we're talking about gov employees doing what is essentially private security work for a handful of mega companies with operations in a lot of different locations.

In contrast: Does the US Gov provide security/door greeters for Walmart? Without looking up the stats, one could generally say that Walmart is probably on the same level economically as American Airlines and most likely has more business locations. Violent crime is also common at Walmart including in the stores and the parking areas. Yet the Gov doesn't provide "hall monitors" for them.

So, WHY for AA and all the rest of the airlines?

1: Don't talk in absolutes, of course there are issue that arise from private and volunteer fire departments

2: The US subsidies pretty much all Wal-mart employees through a variety of socialist programs because Wal-mart refuses to pay a living wage. People have a huge problem with this so it's really weird that you're not aware of it. When you do the math, you see that if we stopped subsidizing JUST Wal-mart, no other corporation, we could pay for nationwide healthcare for every US citizen. We're feeding and housing the vast majority of Wal-mart employees as a matter of course. It's ridiculous.
