    • politicians in order to get public funds. So the logic would be any gov+business will only make rich richer, including green energy/health...deathboy
    • which is why need gov out of private enterprise. a way to help do that is a consumption tax. takes a lot of power away from the politicians. sure its notdeathboy

    • Didnt we leave gold standard around 71, and 401K around 78. 401K give banks ton of capital, no gold allows fed to pump money to gov/banksdeathboy

    Trump won the primaries...should we assume that was rigged too?

    I bet there are a lot of Republicans who would like to overturn that result at this point.

    When it comes to Trump, all I ever hear about is his one failed Taj Mahal project and his tv show that I've never watched. Looking at his portfolio, I'm actually impressed at some of these buildings he built and or brokered

    What exactly were Hillary's accomplishments as a U.S. Senator?
    As reported by Washington Examiner, of the 713 pieces of legislation she sponsored or co-sponsored during her 8-year senate career, only three pieces of legislation that she sponsored became law.

    S.3145 - A bill to designate a portion of United States Route 20A, located in Orchard Park, New York, as the “Timothy J. Russert Highway”.

    S.3613 - A bill to designate the facility of the United States Postal Service located at 2951 New York Highway 43 in Averill Park, New York, as the “Major George Quamo Post Office Building”.

    S.1241 - Kate Mullany National Historic Site Act

    THIS IS ALL SHE DID?! I can do more with a couple cans of spray paint.

    • you actually count her co-sponsorships? Same facts.

      omg
    • and still only 3 became law.omg
    • co-sponsor is just her adding her name to someone else's work. not to downgrade it, but there's a yuge difference.omg
    • but thanks though. not being unappreciative. still mind blown by the lack of effort here shown by Hillary.omg

    re. clinton's senate record.

    I just checked https://www.congress.gov records.

    Senator Mitch McConnell has been a Senator for 31 years (since 1985) and has had 11 pieces sponsored legislation become law.

    that's roughly 2.8 per year of service.

    Hillary was a senator for 8 years (2001-2009) and had 3 pieces sponsored legislation become law.

    that's roughly 2.6 per years of service

    So Clinton's and McConnell 's records are almost the same.

    but importantly, how many piece of legislation has Trump passed or brought through to law???

    fucking none, that's how many

    • sorry, figs wrong.lowimpakt
    • to be clear, it's laws passed divided by years of service not laws really passed each year. still their records are almost identicallowimpakt
    • what are you talking about?!oey
    • besides Trump was not a Senator, how could he have done it?!oey
    • see what omg was saying two posts ago re. senate records. I'm calling it spurious.lowimpakt
    • aaaaah! okay, i see. is omg some sort of magical graffiti writer?oey
    • We're definitely comparing apples to oranges based on their backgrounds. I'm sure if I give someone else 8 years, they could do better.omg
    • I'm actually surprised at the lack of accomplishment she's made to justify herself as a senator. What fuckin' progress.omg
    • I'm not going to ask Hillary how many buildings she built, or how many millions she made as comparing would just ignore the idea that she's done nothing.omg
    • Not trying to put her down, I'm still surprised at her pathetic accomplishments as senator.omg
    • are you a graffiti writer or not?1 focus on the question! damn it!oey
    • Ps. Your math is messed up. At a rate of 2.6 bills passed per year in her 8 years, she should have added 20.8 bills, not a pathetic excuse of 3.omg
    • Check out Bernie's accomplishments. That guy was a superstaromg
    • damn you!oey
    • sorry, i didn't see you ask that question til now. i used to write. what of it?omg
    • Maybe it's better to ask what laws did she have passed, and do they benefit the people... ?set
    • reading QBN on mobile doesn't refreshomg
    • That's the thing. She only pass three and they're just landmark designated piecesomg
    • I guess renaming a highway is beneficial somehow.omg
    • you'd have to look at the bills that didn't get passed.omg
    • omg, you are misunderstanding the point. Her record of getting laws past is the roughly the same and higher than those in the GOP senate leadership teamlowimpakt
    • also, bernie sanders also had three Sponsored pieces of Legislation that became law.lowimpakt
    • oh okomg

    In the voting system in addition to all nominees there should be an option "none of the above", if it reaches a certain threshold -- start all over

    So since Putin is clearly pushing for Trump to win with this whole Wikileaks thing and China is now endorsing Trump, do liberals now get to start spouting the 'Communist' thing to anyone that supports Trump?
