The thing is, we don't want ANYONE to be a billionaire. It's unjust.

It would take a person earning a million dollar salary a thousand years to earn that much.

Dodgers took game 7 in extras.

Still, an AL championship (and beating the Yankees) are accomplishments to be proud of.

Good for you. The problem is that not all landowners have the same commitment.

At least Hitler cared about the environment, right? Even if he thought it should only be preserved for Aryans to enjoy.

Lady was already blind by voting that way. No sympathy. Enjoy hell.

The First Nations never had our concept of owning land. The land owns us. So we should respect it - or it will all end up looking like a strip mine eventually.

YES YES YES. Use LVT to replace one of the awful taxes Canadians gripe about (maybe GST, maybe income tax?)

Most people (I would say 90%) are not what we would call 'political junkies'.

The only time they seriously think about anything political is when it effects them directly.

I probably devote more time than the average schmuck to politics because I operate my own business and I can set my own hours (plus, fall-winter is quiet in my line of work).

But for most people who work 12 months of the year, they are too tired at the end of the workday to care about whether or not fascism is slowly taking over, because the kids need to get to karate class, dinner needs to be made, and they need to sit down and forget about the horrible incident at work today. So I get why most people only really pay attention to politics when it is dressed up as entertainment.

It is a sad indictment of society that life is this way for so many of us, because it just allows the powers that be to keep their boots firmly on our collective necks.
