  • He's not a president, he is a dictator. This is the shit that dictators pull.

  • He's going to go work for ICE now, this is going to get him expedited through the process. He'll probably be running his own team by the end of 6 months.

  • If someone gave you 5 billion dollars to improve the world in any way you see fit, what would you do?

    Jump

  • Yeah, one thing the Trump admin has taught me is that our constitution actually doesn't mean shit. Not to us as American citizens and not to the government that swore to uphold it. We've all just been pretending to care about it until someone with a god complex decided to challenge us.

  • That is very fair.

  • I feel like we have very different beliefs on what "grand scheme of things" means because I don't believe $5b will make an immediate difference right away for most people, but you can implement small things that will create ripple effects that greatly change the grand scheme of things for the future.

  • I truly don't believe $5b is anywhere close to being enough to do that.

  • Thats the point.

    The money isn't for you, and you don't get any of the benefits of having it. The only reason I allowed for a stipen for a modest living in a cheap area is because I knew that half the comments would be "First I buy land build houses for me and all my friends and family, buy everyone cars, and fund all their colleges, then with the hundred million left over, I'll help some homeless people" OR if I would have said you get no money at all, everyone would have said they wouldn't have time to do anything good because they still had to work full time and half to afford their bills. So, the compromise is you get a modest lifestyle in an undesirable area fully funded, or no money at all and you can continue to work full time and a half to afford your basic ass lifestyle while not helping anyone.

  • I wanted to do something similar to your apartment idea but for teens and young adults in poverty-stricken areas. Get them into a stable environment, teach them the necessary life skills like credit management, budgeting, cooking for yourself, etc. and give them job training. All of that would also go just as well for the homeless population. I grew up in an area that was riddled by the crack epidemic and had no resources for kids/teenagers to do anything other than crimes. The city didn't pay for anything to keep us out of trouble, and our drug addict parents sure weren't going to do it either. So I always felt like if I had a ton of money I would focus on program to help teens in those situations learn to be proper adults, because nobody else is teaching them. Schools won't, parents won't, we're defunding every program that helps outside of the home. It's a mess.

  • He is a walking mental health issue. I wish he would go away. I think I regret voting for him more than any other person I've ever voted for in my life.

  • What's more important to you a free internet or your Internet privacy?

    Jump

  • We get the worst of both worlds here, we pay for our data to be taken so they can sell it. If they're going to sell my data either way, I would prefer it to be free to use the internet at least.
