It still boggles the mind that some people actually think money is better off in the hands of government than the people.





I don't understand those people either. I think money is better off in the hands of the people, and the government's role is to make sure the money is as equally distributed as possible in a capitalist economy. That doesn't mean "wealth redistribution," so don't get your panties in a wad. It means the economy should not be rigged for the wealthy individuals and corporations.

There are so many laws and regulations "for the good of the people " at this point its damn near impossible for the wealthiest people to NOT control it. But hey, let's continue making more laws and regulate more.

The infinite nature of the universe.

While the investigation into it was/is not simple, many folks do not really realize that as far as we know, space infinitely continues out into, well, more space.

It's a ridiculously hard concept to fathom though, no beginning or end of time and space

Yeah I think it’d be fun to shove things up vaginas. “This broomstick has splinters but I have something else that would work better.”

America isn’t a Representative Republic; it’s a Constitutional Republic.

The constitution is just an historical document now. It’s been thoroughly trashed.

We have a Socialist Representative Republic.

The city of St. Louis is not in a county. It is an independent city.

Sure. Right after you or he points out the supporting argument for his statement right there in the first amendment.


I don’t care if Darth is correct or not, so no thanks. However, I see you asking how anybody could interpret the amendment in such a way that their religion runs your government, and nobody said that.

That the Constitution was not ratified in 1776 along with the Declaration of Independence, but was in fact ratified years later.

If you put a brick and a feather in a vaccum chamber and release them at the same time they will hit the ground at the same time.
