The authority and leftist standard-bearer on progressive, gun-controlling, gender-bending, climate-changing, papoose and wool blanket carrying migrating, health-care tooting equality, The New York Times, says, Be mature, vote for Hillary.

She's just like Obama your NYT-endorsed god. You're not voting your best interests if you don't.

I have to say this has always been true for the younger people.......at least this was our thoughts in the 70's.
As I see it people on the left are more staunch about it, yet look at all the candidates.....

Jim Webb was the only reasonable one. IMO.

I can't believe anyone over 20 would listen to him. Adults don't believe in Santa Claus. Today's college students? Maybe.

Default Useful Idiots and Cannon Fodder

I prefer the republican form of government, where the people are sovereigns, and the government is their servant.

But if folks want the democratic form of government, where the people are subjects and the government rules them, who am I to say they can't.

Republican form of government (original recipe, 1776) in case you weren't informed in "government approved" education, is where the people directly exercise sovereignty, and are served, not ruled, by governments instituted by compact.

In the event that 95% withdraw from the democratic form, and return to the republican form, the remaining 5% who wish to engage in political liberty, pay taxes and serve, would be of a far different character.

First off, without consent, there would be 95% less people subject to obey.
Second, there would be 95% less revenue to expend on any government activity.
Third, government would be constrained to the basic jobs: secure rights and govern those who consent (the 5%).

Oh, and without the consent to inflict socialist taxes, the "income transfer" (legalized theft) would immediately end.

D'Oh!
What will the "Left" do without voluntary serfs to rule and dispossess?
And what about all those expatriate industries facing the prospect of zero taxes on labor and business?
What IDIOT would trigger an economic recovery that way?

Its amazing how little common sense these highly-educated students possess. But he tells people what they want to hear.

The cost of Bernie Sanders' proposals:
$18 trillion

The amount of money in the whole entire world:
$60 trillion

He does look like that.

Probably, because on a whole nation basis, that's what he is.

As for Hillary, Ted Bundy, also, had excellent political skills.

That is incorrect.
By American law, debt is not money.
Since 1933, no dollars have circulated.
Dollar bills (Federal Reserve NOTES) are IOUs (debt).
Congress repudiated them in 1933 - making them worthless. (See Gold Reserve Act of 1934)

If you're wondering how worthless IOUs act as legal tender, that is due to the obligated party on said notes.
12 USC Sec. 411 states that the US Gov is an obligated party.
FICA / Social Security imposes that obligation on all "contributors" signed up.
(FICA is 100% voluntary, btw)

Coining all the (alleged) gold in Fort Knox (147.4 million ounces) would compute to 2.9 billion gold dollars (pursuant to the Coinage Act of 1792)

Coining all the gold in the world (5.6 billion ounces) would compute to 112 billion dollars.
Divided by 7 billion people = = = >> $16 per capita. WOO HOO!


FRB: How much U.S. currency is in circulation?
Q: How much U.S. currency is in circulation?
A: There was approximately $1.34 trillion in circulation as of January 7, 2015, of which $1.29 trillion was in Federal Reserve notes.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United...federal_budget
2014 Federal Deficit : $1,086 billion
2014 Debt Service : $229 billion
(approx. 18% of all circulating money is paid to the creditor, yearly)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2014_U...federal_budget
2014 Federal Budget $3.5 trillion versus
$1.29 trillion in circulation.
This should certainly raise some questions - - -
. . .
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Financ..._United_States
". . . The financial position of the United States includes assets of at least $269.6 trillion and debts of $145.8 trillion to produce a net worth of at least $123.8 trillion."
How do you ACCOUNT for a value of $123.8 trillion dollar bills, with only $1.29 trillion in circulation?
How do you PAY off $145.8 trillion with only $1.29 trillion in circulation?

"Stop that little dog from pulling on the curtain! I am the great and powerful ZZZZZZZ!"

I wonder if college students are getting credits to go to his rallies. He doesn't seem like someone who would draw any crowd, let alone young. I know it's about the goodies, but university students aren't politically aware.
