Your center is obviously off kilter. They're left, maybe not left of you, but they're left. If you look at who they make fun of during political humor it should be obvious. Whenever they dare to have non pc humor, there's backlash. âoeThe dating app Tinder announced a new feature this week which gives users 37 different gender identity options,â Jost said. âoeItâ(TM)s called âWhy Democrats lost the election.â(TM)â

Comment Re: Starbucks? (Score 1) 35

There are different types of coffee, you might not have found one that you like. Some of the more popular types of coffee that are described as fruity, are more acidic, I hate those. After decades of trying different types and different ways of brewing, my wife and I finally found one that tastes really good. Some people will go as far as roasting their own beans. If you compare it to beer, there's a lot of horrible beers, including budweiser, which was really popular at one point in time, in the U.S. Now we have access to a large variety of good beer, and not everyone likes the same type, stout,porter,pilsner,lager,ipa,but when you find a good beer that you like, it's awesome. Stay away from the bud coffees.

The same problem is happening on the east coast as well. The Boston area real estate prices and cost of living are insane. You make more money but pay more to live there. Then they move to neighboring states like New Hampshire where it's cheaper and quieter. Then they want to make it more like Massachusetts and ruin everything.

Comment Annoying liberals making up problems (Score 0) 264

Black people are not offended by the terms black or white. This is the work of liberal HR assholes making up fictional scenarios. Sensitivity training/diversity training/unconscious bias training are causing the problems they claim to fight. Instead they make everyone feel like they are walking on eggshells. Some of us were getting along fine, but some people who have white guilt issues assumed that we were all guilty when they were actually the ones who were privileged brats.

Comment Today's critics are horrible. (Score 3, Insightful) 101

Unless you have the same taste in movies as the critics, their reviews are mostly useless. A lot of them seem to prefer movies with a lot of dialogue and nothing else. They don't care if there's no plot. They don't seem to understand tempo. The movie can end with a cliffhanger and people will claim that it's up to the audience to interpret what happened. I think it's lazy writing. It's a shame how many writers can write a good opening and middle part, but they don't know how to end a story. And then there's the recycling of ideas that the younger audience think is fresh, but it's already been done before. Critics also like movies that promote liberal politics and diversity, even when the diversity starts looking out of place.

I'm thinking you live in your parents basement. Auto insurance,gas, car, health insurance, heat, electricity, cell phone, clothing, rent/mortgage, food, internet. $1000 can disappear really fast. If you're thinking about someone who just needs temporary help until they get back on their feet, that's rare. On the other end of the spectrum there are the ones who don't budget, smokes, drinks, does drugs, buys scratch tickets, buys fast food, etc. I have ex in-laws who are too hardcore for Jerry Springer. Just because you don't know people like this doesn't mean they don't exist, because they do. Everyone who has dealt with these people know that this is a problem and people like you are just idealists.

$1000/month isn't enough to live on. You'll probably have to make it at least $2000/month, which means we're talking about increasing the break even point. People will popping out babies like crazy, they do it now, for less. The money supply m1 will have to be dramatically increased. If you think it's possible to work out a favorable tax statement for this, then my suggestion is implement that first, then talk about ubi. We need a better tax program even if we're not thinking of adding ubi/free education/free medical.
