Mike, I think that link is proof that you just can't trust the US election system (don't get me wrong, I have no faith in ours either).. There'll always be some loophole somewhere the bigwigs will fine and will take advantage of...

Yes, I know a lot of it was essentially lit on fire and burnt as far as it's effectiveness... but it still WENT SOMEWHERE, and for the most part it went into pockets that were already pretty well lined... My guess is it pretty much all went to the bankers and insurers, perhaps through a couple...

What I'm wondering is where are the trillions in bailouts ending up? I'm thinking it's lined some pockets pretty deep... Look at land/house prices.. You still believe the claims of 1.1% inflation per year? (Real estate is conveniently left out of the inflation index!.. Like welfare cases are...

Does anyone actually know who Trumps' great people are?... Is there a list of his favorites for the various offices? Defence? Foreign affairs? Health? and so on... Saying you're going to hire great people is fine and dandy, but show some examples so we can judge them for ourselves as well.

Here's something from the last republican primaries.. It's pretty glaring of how the media screws with them. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PMO7YG3Ul5g

Why should there be so many tax credits for families?? Doesn't the guy or girl trying to make a life for themselves deserve the same? I'm OK with income being split between two people in a family, and a child tax benefit, but not a deduction just for being married/commonlaw

There's plenty of black neighborhoods too, and they might as well be gated off. (Hmm.. that's a good idea actually!) This is just another example of a bunch of pussies getting their panties in a knot... There's plenty of jerks and arseholes of any race, gender, and religion to go around... I...

Very well said! If you get all worked up about the sheer number of executive orders Obama has enacted, I think it would be delusional to expect anything less than Trump one-upping him on that...

It sounds like a tax writeoff to me... his campaign defaults on the loan, he writes it off

Like with BSE.. there's always *someone* who makes money, even when prices are low... and it's not the little guys... Up here we're still paying $3/gal for diesel and gas.. I know there's a huge amount of tax, but that's not all there is... Every time a camel farts in the middle east the fuel...

I just watched Bill Maher on youtube "Self esteem movement" (something I've long had issues with)... He said "Trump doesn't really want to be president.. he wants to be CALLED president.. I can't help but think that's pretty accurate.

Some people are just asses and have to make themselves feel big

I agree wholehearTEDly... sorry for the pun. What I heard is if he had just invested the money he inherited in a mutual fund he'd have a far greater net worth. I just don't like his attitude.

I have one of those lefty nutcases as Prime Minister up here, though the right-winger was a miserable sod as well.. there's just no moderate candidate anymore. I'm not the most politically informed, but I quite liked Ron Paul, and his son.. well.. perhaps a bit a watered down version... I'm...

I am not saying he's an evil guy, and even evil people sometimes do charitable acts... He's still a nutcase though Putting things into perspective, Even when I was experiencing rough times financially, and my net worth was pretty low, I'd give a buck to a guy on the street who needed it more...

I've had to deal with a few nutcases, some of whom I considered friends as well... one that comes to mind also threatened me, told lies about me to my boss (we had worked at the same place a while), stolen a fair bit of money from me, never mind not repaying debts he owed me in the first...

He's banning shredded cheese now.. says it'll make America grate again

I think they may have had a shot last time around with Ron Paul, but I knew darned well that wasn't going to fly. People love to hear about how the future will be better, but no one is willing to suffer a little now for tomorrow. I think the media is a puppet.. every time I saw a clip of a...

Well.. He just does a lot of talking.. and his hands.. it's just usually pointing a finger

I think that's good news (Trump losing somewhere).. I'm not up to speed on the options though.
