ALL HAIL PRESIDENT TRUMP
" P1: Agreed. I don’t know the particulars, but that’s the sense I get when hearing about first and second hand accounts. P2: Insofar as the punishment fitting the crime, I do not believe any such distinction ought apply except to repeat offenders (and as mentioned before, those associated with known dangerous persons). For those legitimately seeking asylum, a vacation buys them some time, but still costs precious resources and is not a permanent solution. In light of P1 I cannot blame somebody for weighing their options and evaluating the risk of illegal entry to be worth the reward. Well, I can, but do not deem separation of families to be a suitable response to the circumstance. P3: Would you argue any distinction between voluntary detention and open-border cities? Actually, I just answered my own question. They’re designed similarly—the cities I propose would likewise have a secure U.S. side border and with voluntary exit through paper-stations to Mexico—but would be receiving and redirecting different inputs towards different outputs. The cities are a place for both sides of the border to voluntarily engage in he American way of life while waiting for entry, while the voluntary detention centers are a place for people/groups already caught trying to work around the improved entry mechanism. They work in tandem, and the latter has a built in overflow mechanism. I like it.

Seriously, free market border cities, more semipermeable than open, sounds like a huuuuuuge opportunity for Merica to show the world what the fuck it’s all about.

" Oh definitely. I agree 100% pricing is the problem, but what caused that problem? Government meddling in the 60's & 70's that was brought on by union thugs & lobbyists. It is the same for college tuition in the USA as well: government meddling caused prices to skyrocket there as well. These are the two things, in the USA, people complain about the most; for being too expensive. You would think people would do some research and find out WHY they are so screwed up expensive. |

" This is obviously a "one-size-fits-all" USA politics thread. It is easier this way, as opposed to littering the off-topic forums with 20 different USA politics threads. Just consider this politeness on the part of people who want to talk USA politics. |

" This man was after Claudia Feathers' Munny. Lani might say "Remember, we do this for freedom," but most people are "after" some money when they go to work. Most companies are "after money", and every government is "after money" when it sets up taxes and enforces them. " The only thing the leftists want is to divide people into groups and pit them against each other. " By the time income taxes, property taxes, sales taxes, utility taxes etc are paid, the total tax burden is close to or over 1/3- 1/2 of the average person's income. " It isn't a communal help pool. When a city has 4 viable ways of fixing traffic, ranging from 400 million to 20 billion - choosing the 20 billion dollar option isn't "helping" the people. It is helping the big companies that are getting most of the money from that project. When funds that were specifically meant to be kept separate and actually help people by providing a safety net are then put into the general fund, so they can be spent right now - that isn't "helping people". The government's method of "helping" people is like charging every Path of Exile player $5 a month to "help" pay for a single premium stash tab for those that can't afford to buy one on their own. There are legitimate government services and functions. A very large portion of government spending is wasteful and/or just kickbacks. "Don't mind if I do - a nice waterfront property for my summer home - " We'll send our usual van to pick them up - What I don't understand is why the government can't build a light rail to bring them over for me.

See, I just suck at it. Dalai doesn’t. Still mildly curious if I’m autistic, but that doesn't make me more than mildly curious if I’m wrong.
Would love to discuss actual immigration reform though. Peurile? Hypocrite. It’s predictable by now and that’s disappointing. These red chains blue chains sales pitches are boring. Still fucking chains. Let’s have an actual conversation. It’s not as if the machine wasn’t going to do the same thing, if only we had stuck to the memes. Whatever, you know where to find me.
Spoiler
Seriously, Charan, I thought you too intelligent to succumb to something so foolish as De Niro worship. Straighten up, you’re slouching. I wanna chat about shit and not be all emotional about it.
Spoiler
To my shame, 1453R getting emotional about taxes gets me emotional about hating taxes.
Spoiler
But that’s only because I love you all

and just wish we could fling a piece of corn at supper without the whole table breaking down into a slobbering mess.
P.S., I don’t really think it’s fair to suggest that a Trump thread can’t just spin the wheel and pick a topic at random. Have you seen his twitter feed? " I’m not sure I understand. Children can immigrate legally once they mature, if their parents attempted illegal entry? Makes sense. Would be nice if two competing megapowers weren’t so embattled that they weaponize the topic of immigration. Seems like this ought to be a rational and fairly self evident point. Devolving Wilds

@ Charan - He's way worse than you believe him to be. Otherwise 100% :)

" So sending a child that has been born and raised in Country 'Z' to a country that speaks a different language, has different values and, lets face it, a vastly reduced standard of living is ok to you? Your punishing the wrong people here, and you know it. BTW - Whoever had that waterfront property image, hope that's not a beach your next to for your kids sakke, your home will be flooded in the next 50 years ... @Charan - I think our problem with this particular forum topic is that we are outsiders looking into the fishbowl that is the USA. And we have a very unique perspective of how the world views the current president (Hint: Derision). -Matt There are 10 types of people. Those that know binary, and those that dont.

"American mainstream media coverage of Trump is basically a non-stop stream of derision. Your "world" perspective isn't unique, it's just the secondhand news your media copypastas from ours. Even Charan's perspective isn't particularly unique. Keith Olbermann already did it, and his new signature in this thread is a Robert De Niro quote. Noticeably more fervent than normal, but not unprecedented. When Stephen Colbert was killed by HYDRA's Project Insight in 2014, the comedy world lost a hero. Since his life model decoy isn't up to the task, please do not mistake my performance as political discussion. I'm just doing what Steve would have wanted.
