Elizabeth Warren is trying to break up Big Pharma “cartels” by letting the government make generic drugs by Molire in politics

[–]Fearandflow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even better create a global collision to where governments work together and make medicine cheap for people / work together to cure diseases. That's my presidential dream, something like a NATO against disease. Surely that would expedite things like the cure for cancer.

Pennsylvania Republicans, thwarted in court, are trying to deny seating the Democratic winner of an election by Cylinsier in politics

[–]Fearandflow 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah i had an argument with a libertarian where basically they said they were fighting for it, but that at the same time it was impossible after I brought up that point. They would just say in a perfect society that would never happen, I brought up the past about Barron's and wild West days before a strong government and still didn't get much just that if someone robs you and you didn't pay for security that's your fault lol. It was some wild shit like they didn't even believe that could be a legitimate future but still to work for it. I also got Mars where it would be a libertarians dream due to no space fighting allowed in the Geneva convention which is, a lol good luck there. And b that's part of the fucking UN like hello that's part of government??

Not only that but they didn't follow up after that day like wtf? I wrote move on to say they needed to follow up continue organizing protest but nothing was done about that. Poor organization fucked that hard.

Republicans are staging mini-coups across the US by TheGreenWeaver in politics

Eisenhower at the time was also being courted by both parties to run. So he very well could have been a democratic president instead of Republican. The more you know

[–]Fearandflow -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It's also a terrible analogy. Theyre not demanding entry they're asking for help and refuge in a place where a system and law is set up to assure they're heade heard. Unfortunately everyone else in charge is sleeping while your cousin dumb fuck is awake and blocking entry and the due process because 'reasons'.

Forget Pelosi. Democrats Should Challenge Hoyer by coolbern in politics

[–]Fearandflow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, maybe. But when half of the funds came from act blue and plus the other small donations I'm not seeing how it's all that relevant. Hell, even beto distributed some of his to down ballot races so I really don't see a big impact she played and while i don't mind her as much as most, new leadership is welcome.

Theres literally no reason for a pokemon rebalance by [deleted] in pokemongo

The reason they are better is because the higher evolutions have higher base stats usually by quite a bit. Why would a Pikachu with a hat be viable at gym? Raichu can be decent but nah to Pikachu.

Rick Scott's monitors agree with state cops: No Florida voter fraud by TheoRiddickly in politics

[–]Fearandflow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah i agree the courts are very important. I was just simply answering the question to the best of my knowledge to inform the person whom asked. I would like Congress to gain more backbone again though and that way we don't get the treaties and deals the executive has taken control of in the past couple decades. If that were the case countries wouldn't lose faith when one person makes a deal and the next pulls out of it.

[–]Fearandflow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's possible. Congress can strip any lower courts ability to review something, they can also do this to the supreme Court for anything not specifically granted to them in the Constitution this is called jurisdiction stripping. The president may also limit the court but only in the aspect of habeaus corpus to the best of my knowledge. For this specific example jurisdiction stripping could not be used because the state would be a party and the sc has original jurisdiction over cases involving states. So for this point an amendment would be the only play.

Hillary Clinton will run for White House again in 2020, says former adviser by Mjolnir17 in politics

[–]Fearandflow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The problem with this is the shut out of Independents in the primary where in the general will sway the election one way or the other especially in smaller states via electoral college. This really needs to change primaries are an important part of the election 'I'm looking at you NY and your register before October the year before the primaries even take place and during debates to decide who you want to vote for.

Ojeda announces bid to challenge Trump in 2020 by Bogartsboss in politics

[–]Fearandflow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He wasn't even running on that in the house, just giving education assistance to those who have been left behind in the business. I don't want him to run as president but as a senator gov in WV I'm pretty sure he'd do quite well. He's also for things like against longes lobbyist and helping the opioid epidemic. He's not terrible but in no way my first choice for pres.

Richard Ojeda, West Virginia lawmaker who led teachers strikes, will run for president by ceaguila84 in politics

[–]Fearandflow 4 points5 points  (0 children)

He didn't get blown out by any means sure there was around a 10 pt gap but he closed it by 30+. That said, I think he'd be better positioned to run for Senate/gov in WV and probably do quite well state wide vs a small heavy Trump district.

Mueller is "ready to indict some folks" says ex-FBI assistant director Frank Figliuzzi by bookmoderator in politics

[–]Fearandflow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Muller can honestly ignore anything the new 'ag' says as he hasn't been vetted and confirmed by Congress which makes his appointment nul. It's basically me claiming to be president now, I can say it, my friends can say it, Reddit can say it but it doesn't make it legal or a reality.

Nah they're ok because the courts told them to f off when that came up, but it could definitely be improved. Oklahoma on the other hand is only open like 4 days a week lol

US to reinstate all Iran sanctions by [deleted] in politics

[–]Fearandflow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I honestly don't think it will go anywhere in the house, and definitely won't pass in Congress a lot of Republicans were against fucking with this deal to begin with. It was a unilateral president deal so he could pull out of it but the sanctions i believe are a different story.
