That's an interesting opening sentence considering you then iterated what I said about the specifics of sports betting.

I hate semantic and pedant arguments on the Internet but this is worth it:

We don't legalize things in America, we illegalize things.

The constitution doesn't give us rights, it actually takes them away so our government can operate.

We give freedom lip service in this country but if you truly believe in it this is what we must drill into people in civics class and in discourse.

This is in fact what happened with sports betting. They wrote a law making it illegal. That law got struck down, so we are back to the default which is it is legal.

We can make it illegal again to address the court ruling, but it's an uphill battle.

My retort is always:

Saying 'Correlation isn't causation' doesn't disprove causation.

>>>>Fentanyl will kill you the first time you're exposed to it.

This is why DARE failed. You can't blatantly lie about everything just because you want what's best for people. At some point people find out you're a liar and don't believe a thing you say.

And left handed people.

According to my dad the Catholic Church tried when he was in elementary school, but he brags that Satan was too strong with him.

Did not enjoy nor find useful.

Just seemed like a high schooler who read Howard Zin and is reciting all the ways America is horrible. Very emo or goth or nihilistic or just bleak. Not a fun or thought provoking read.

November pumpkins is where the money is.

This *1000. It's a supreme failure on our educational system and society at large that most Americans don't think about our government and our rights in these terms.

The Constitution actually takes away our rights. It has to, it lays out the powers the government has over us. Even the bill of rights doesn't technically give us rights---it explicitly details the ways our government cannot operate.

Thats a ridiculous comment. The thing about the space race is we were getting are ass kicked, then said 'Oh the finish line is actually this. Oh look we kicked your ass "

It was like we lost the first 9 events of a decathalon and then won the 1500 and declared ourselves the winner.

Been impeached twice. What do you envision a third doing?

Agree. Seemed more like something that should go direct to streaming instead of big screen.

Decent, not amazing.

It boggles my mind that the government has privatized currency to these people.

Crazy-person-but-actually-really practical-idea:

Nationalize one if these networks. Maybe Discover.

The US government should provide us digital currency. The simplest way is to force the current systems to do that. All that rent they collect in terms of transactions fees shouldn't be profit for a private business but fees of the government.

Sustainability?

What resource will we run out of if we continue to piss in traditional urinals?

Has bullshit marketing terms invaded scientific papers now as well?

Nice domain name too.
