If you would prefer a socialist party candidate the most logical choice is to pick whatever Democratic/Republican candidate is most willing to enact voting method reform, e.g. ranked choice voting.
Because voters are incentivized to pick one of two main parties in the current method, third parties are essentially guaranteed never to get off the ground.
Yeah and the senators who ratified women's right to vote were all elected by men but they still did the ethical thing.
At least Sanders seems to want to reduce billionaires' disproportionate influence on politics.
Maybe you're ok if Elon Musk's opinion on how much you should get taxed counts a billion times more than yours, but you really shouldn't be.
It is ironic, but if this was the case we would probably just see the Republican party shift to be more moderate and collect more votes. Not a bad thing IMO. Cultivating extremism is bad for democracy.
Upvoted for the honesty
Lol. How soon he'll sell it is directly proportional to how many ~~suckers~~ people he can convince he's going to keep it (and who thereby prop up the stock price for him).
Probably he's on a diet and his wife won't let him eat more than 1 order of meatballs.
Also he tricked the ents into walking past Isengard so that they'd see how many trees Saruman whacked and take an ax to him instead.
Feels like they overnerfed ember
Interesting. This kind of bill is for costs incurred as a result of the rally rather than for directly using the facilities, e.g. paying for an increased police presence to control protestors. Seems like candidates are not really obligated to pay for this.
This article claims they pay a higher effective tax rate, not more in taxes. A citizen working the same position would pay even more in taxes since they would also have to pay income tax.
Maybe the headline should be that sales + other flat taxes are becoming an increasing burden for low income workers. This is the problem for the illegal immigrants in the study, and even more of a problem for citizens who earn the same amount.
Sad about this one tbh. Didn't really seem op in my pubs but maybe it was too good in the pro scene.
Reduced from 40 to 36 hours is in the right direction, but it's still a 5 day work week.
