politics | This will forever baffle me about this man. He was just handed more money than 99.9% of the planet will ever see. He could have invested it. He could have handed it off to staff and let them build hugely profitable businesses. Shit, he could have even run those businesses like an absolutely monarch. But instead, he cho... |

politics | There is a good argument however, that affirmative action, while necessary, is not ideal. If his point is, that it is not the government's job to force decency upon society, that is entirely correct.
Affirmative action certainly should not continue forever, and will have to be phased out in favor of things that still ... |

This is definitely not true. These things 100% exist within the Republican party, but judging an entire group that consists of millions of people by the worst members of that group is the height of bigotry, ignorance, an... |

politics | >"we have to address the fallout from centuries of inequality" which is essentially generational poverty.

politics | Are you now aware that these documents were actually made public last night, and that Booker was well aware that they were no longer classified when he put on this big show?
I'm really disappointed in him. He was the one who argued for the docs to be released, so this was a win for him (and the public at large). Then ... |
