My Little Pony Friendship is Magic part 18: We Don't Need No Stinkin Hiatus

[Sirfailalot]

The most important consideration for me came just the other week when a spot on the Supreme Court opened up. In my view, it's the single most important thing a president can do. It's the reason I'd even consider voting for Clinton, and only then if she's up against someone who would put in another Scalia.

Trump, he'd probably put in someone reasonable-to-liberal. Cruz or some other conservative, nope, they won't be getting my vote.

I think Trump would likely go central. I would hope so given the honest truth is he's more toward the center of this country's political spectrum. If there was a central party he'd likely be running there. Funny enough the emergence of a third CENTRAL party might just be a side effect of the insanity going on right now and I am ALL for that.

But we also have different priorities and dozens of times the population, and not nearly enough capital that most people would be okay with shifting from other things (particularly military) to other socialist policies.

You don't have to shift existing government capital away from programs. Corporations are currently effectively taxed significantly below the global average due to tax loopholes, even if our on-paper rate is higher. If we cut the current on-paper corporate tax rate in half and closed all loopholes, we'd still have a corporate tax-rate below the average and bring in around 50% more revenue than we currently do.

Everything is possible when it comes to cats and sleeps.

With the republican party tearing itself apart at the moment, it wouldn't surprise me if a centrist party eventually (maybe not this cycle, but soon) emerged, one that brought in people from both sides. I'd love to see something like that too.

And while that's a great idea in theory, those corporations paid politicians a lot of money to put those loopholes in. Neither of them are going to want to let them go without a fight, one there's just not the political will for at the moment. Or soon, I think.

I think you're underestimating how sick people are of corporate-bought politics. We'll see, however.

and yet they are still voting for Trump and Hillary in droves

Well, the right doesn't really have an anti-corporate choice except for Cruz, and he's a whole different brand of crazy.

Hillary is being pushed as a populist hero by the media. It's a lie, of course, but people don't always dig.

A lot of people supporting Trump operate under the assumption he can't be bought by corporations, but fail to realize that doesn't mean he'll be anti-corporations in office. He's basically a walking, talking corporation, and really won't do anything to damage corporations' standings.

How disturbing

It doesn't explain why it output the first time to the DVI and never again

But once I switched it to VGA, it worked just fine. Everything else will presumably work once I get the drivers installed

I really wish I could be there to help diagnose what's going wrong. It's just so difficult over delayed text chat.

It is never fun doing that over the phone or just with an explanation.
