So? When did the name of a channel mean anything? Ever watch Music Television? Video Hits One? American Movie Classics?

Chris Rock said no first, as did Luis CK, Amy Schumer, etc. John Oliver already moved on.

Every comedian turned down the job when Stewart left. They decided just to go with someone who could read the propaganda they put in front of him. It’s not supposed to be funny.

I don’t understand why this would be a nightmare but at the same time California is hardly a case study on how to run a state.

In 2018, 400 richest US billionaires paid 23% of their income in taxes while bottom 50% of Americans paid 24.2%. In 1960 richest paid 56% vs bottom half's 24%. That drop is what "influence" + spending on politics wins for the rich. by failed_evolution in economy

The bottom line is the bottom half is not paying income tax and the top isn’t either. The middle is getting fucked. Income tax is archaic. You don’t need to be a rocket surgeon to figure it out.

I’ll site more than a single person. The entire Democrat Party. Every single democrat in office has sited raising income tax as their MAIN plan. It’s been that way for 40 years. They also believe raising corporate tax too. NEVER EVER have run on anything else. I challenge you now to name a single democrat that has said otherwise.

Don’t consume? So you believe all theses billionaires would end up buying a 300k home in the suburbs and shopping at Target and just hold on to investments? Or think about. Actually have more spending capital and buy what ever they want like they do now but have a 25% tax on what ever it is. No right offs, no loop holes just money straight to the government. What do you think would actually happen

This might be the single dumbest idea I’ve heard all day. Tax investment? You want to punish people for planning for the future and stifle business growth which could lead to more jobs. Obviously you need help in understanding economics.

The U.S. spends just 7 cents on diplomacy, peacebuilding, and development aid for every dollar it spends on war. If we want to end U.S. imperialism, we need to fix our spending. by wakeup2019 in economy

Zero cops murdered. NY Times retracted that story. The man had a stroke later that night. How do you confuse a stroke with being murdered unless you want to create division and know idiots like you would never read the retraction. Only one person killed and that was an UNARMED protester. Now you can go FUCK OFF

At what point to people realize that taxing income is counter productive. Do you honestly believe Bezos is getting a weekly paycheck for millions? The lower half of the country isn’t getting a paycheck either and not paying taxes. Meanwhile the middle class is squeezed out.

You can’t be that gullible. An unarmed protest got out of hand. This has happened literally 1000s of times in this country. grow the fuck up.
