@mghrn55 saidNa. just one of my usual ways to explain things that I think. And I don't have interest in 500 companies, unless you consider the Index 500.
In addition to running 500 companies, you find time to put in a shift at McDonalds. 😛
My real property interests, tho, are not doing well, you will be glad to know, what with the moratorium stuff. Its always something, isnt it, Mghr55.
Are my analogies all that bad? Adds a bit of color to the Forum, I think. Like, you and I are roommates in an apartment, at the end of the week I have earned $2000 and you have earned $500. How do we split it up? These are trick questions, because a liberal has BIG ideas about splitting it up faaaaiiiirrrrrrrrrly. But in your heart and in common sense, you know the $2000 to be mine. But you HAVE to answer my analogy (so as to not upset your group in the Forum) that I should share my $2000 with you.
This is the kind of entertainment that keeps me in the Forum!!!!!!!!!!

Like I said a while back, you have the world view of an ideological simpleton.
Let's leave it at that.
@mghrn55 saidWe can't leave it!! You cannot respond, so we wait for a response !!

Strange that you say to a republic/conservative that he is Idealogical!!! Google says that that moniker is owned by the liberals.......that, we are the realists. Maybe you miss-typed?
I note that you don't deny your making me share the $2000 with you.

@AverageJoe1
Yeah, you would MUCH rather have repubs in TOTAL PERMANENT CONTROL OF POLITICAL POWER IN THE US.
BTW if that happens I WILL take up arms against the death of democracy.
YOU might think the death of democracy in the US is a joke but I can assure you we take that seriously as an existential threat to the US.
For one thing, you totally ignore the reaction of the world around us.
You do know we have some 5% of the world population and if we turn into international pariah's I assume you figure we can go it alone and SCREW the rest of the world and the FACT JACK that if we went autocrat, countries like Russia, North Korea, will JUMP at that chance to start conflicts around the globe and we, being mentored by Putin, will go along with all of that because we would have lost our moral bearings and in that sad era, the constitution will be a JOKE. But of course that is what you want.

@kevin-eleven saidOf course not.
Are you trying to indicate that honesty is not a conservative value?
Not in Trump's Republican Party.

@averagejoe1 saidNo, you don't. You'd rather have authoritarianism. Leaning towards totalitarianism.

You also increasingly see the Constitution as getting in your way.

@averagejoe1 saidWhat does the Roommate Constitution say about such things? Is there a Roommate Sixteenth Amendment in effect?
Na. just one of my usual ways to explain things that I think. And I don't have interest in 500 companies, unless you consider the Index 500.
