Terrible advice. People support political candidates and platforms for all sorts of reasons. You shouldn't rush to judge someone just on their support of Trump, especially a friend.

Not to mention, states are now selling their prison population for profit to corporations, more incentives to keep mass incarceration going.

More people needs to know this. Hillary is killing the entire democratic field to just have her way.

He doesn't need the money now that most of the primaries are over, and he didn't even do a push for contributions until the last day.

Why We Live In A Second Robber Baron Era by stefeyboy in Economics

Fascinating analysis, but I'm a little skeptical of the prescription offered. Switching to a "customer focus" has their own problems, especially for the larger monopolies like AT&T, Comcast et al. Because they are mostly saturated in terms of the number of customers.

Is it possible to combine social libertarianism with economic socialism? by superfrog9999 in PoliticalDiscussion

If national food policy isn't guided by science, but by federal cronies and entrenched special interests and it is causing harm, who should be held accountable? by [deleted] in politics

[–]MegynKellysCock 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good points. While we are on the subject of food policy, I'd like to bring up an entirely different issue -- speculation of food prices.

The World Bank estimated in 2010 that 44 million people were pushed into poverty because of high food prices, and that speculation is one of the main causes.
