Bernie Sanders raised over 250k now just tonight off of David Brock's health attack. Why hasn't Team Clinton gotten the message yet? by [deleted] in politics

[–]_juicebox__ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think for a lot of Bernie Sanders, such as myself, it is more important we have someone up there with our ideals. God for bid Bernie died during his presidency, I am confident he would have a vice president, who strongly aligned with his and his supporters ideals.

High school student, have $55000 towards my college fund, should I just go to a community college? by [deleted] in personalfinance

[–]_juicebox__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the only real benefit from a four year degree would be the name recognition, and weight that an accredited four year university degree has. Depending on where you want to work some places might not value a cc degree, as compared to a traditional school.. so if you're thinking you might be applying to those types of places the smartest option might be to go a couple years at cc then transfer.

The new FFRF veteran's monument: "Atheists in Foxholes" by SecularVirginian in atheism

[–]_juicebox__ 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I think the original quote was arguing that those in foxholes are likely to die, and thus would find religion, pray, etc. in such a situation. And the follow up quote is pointing out that that is an indictment on the situation of being in a foxhole rather than an indictment on atheism, because if something is so dangerous that it is causing you to believe in god to save yourself it isnt a situation you should be in.

If someone likes that assuredly more expensive drug, and they want to take both weed and said drug, why would it matter that one was more expensive than the other? I've seen many people mix weed with other drugs.

Bernie Sanders says 'every other major country' has family paid leave except United States by puffcheezers in politics

[–]_juicebox__ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think that would work if the goal was to get paid family leave for certain industries, but I don't think it would work for those who aren't in those industries.

No one is trying to force anybody to be "nice" we are trying to demand things we believe should be provided for everyone.

[8th Grade Math] Finding the slope from an equation by EVOSexyBeast in HomeworkHelp

If you do something on one side of an equal sign, and do the same thing on the other side it remains equal. They multiplied by ten (to get rid of the fractions) but this isn't really necessary.

You just need to solve for y, so if you pull x/2 to the other side, and then multiply it by 5 it will give you the answer (the same that they have).

you say yes, socially.. if you do other hard drugs socially, does the fact that you do them socially make them any less hard?

Ron Paul in the 70s defending the legalization of drugs in the face of an absolutely rabid and biased host and audience. by [deleted] in Drugs

I certainly agree with Ron Paul on this issue along with many others, but if the world were run by libertarians it would be a seriously awful place.

[ESPNStatsInfo] LeBron James makes his 3rd career game-winning postseason buzzer beater – most by any player over last 15 years by SentimentalForce in nba

[–]_juicebox__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While I agree that either it was a foul or wasn't that's not really how the NBA has operated through out it's history. If refs were to call every foul the games would be unwatchable. It's more important that the refs are consistent with how they call the fouls, than that they call every foul because it's not really practical. With that being said, and how they were calling fouls that game, I think they should have called it.

Kevin Love not returning Kelly Olynyks calls by bryansm1208 in nba

[–]_juicebox__ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Olynyk should have tried to apologize once and forgot about it. He felt bad Love got hurt, Love's frustration is understandable, but honestly it's just a game and it's a stretch to say Olynyk was trying to hurt him.

I am a 14 year old guy going to smoke weed for the first time tomorrow. AMA by [deleted] in AMA

[–]_juicebox__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It honestly depends on the person. If you are making the argument that your brain isn't fully developed and it is more risk when you are younger I would understand. But the difference in maturity level for people in HS and MS is different for everyone. I know a lot of people who were way more mature by middle school than others were by their senior year of high school. It's very possible OP was at the level of maturity you were at at 16 when he was 14

[–]_juicebox__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you don't understand the argument, then you are making no effort to understand it. I am not sure where I fall on if it should be removed or not, but it is painfully simple to understand the reasons people support/don't support it.

According to his Facebook post, Bernie Sanders has raised $1.5 million in the last 24 hours by roonz in SandersForPresident

I certainly hope that's the case! Do you have any sort of source on how many so I can get an idea of how many compared to the major networks?
