Unfortunately, manufacturing consent certainly seems alive and well. Now, there isn’t even a pretense that it doesn’t exist
There are so many factors which conspire against the legal remonstrance by the individual (common folk), and more regulations will likely have no practical impact. For instance, for all the well intentioned burden of HIPAA, the benefit seems to me to be more theoretical than practical for the common citizen
That is an awful lot of money. Its hard to put your head around just how much that is. 83% of the turnip tax cut went to the top 1%(what is that 2.4 some odd billion). So ya, there is a lot more money circulating. Its all on really bad credit though. The price we end up paying may be grave. In the mean time have fun with your share of the .6 billion.
If Iran starts to build a nuke, the war will be his fault. If he stays out of north korea we might see some real democratic progress. But he’ll probably c it up.
Those people play both sides. Don’t kid yourself. All politicians have a credibility problem at this point. You can thank all the money that is aloud into politics for that. What gets me is how blind people can be toward there own candidate.
How can they build a nuke? Their resources have been drastically cut.
And specifically, how can he back out of a deal when the document containing it was actually never signed by either country?

That we don’t know how things will go. History has already shown us. Economics is a science and it also says how it will go. The economy will improve because the welfare and standard of living of the average citizen will improve.
Beyond the above, if you want to argue about balanced budget take it up with the party that advocated for it (even threatened to close up the govt over it).
Per article: President Reagan added $1.412 trillion in deficits, nearly doubling the debt
More specifically, POTUS Trump can do anything he damned pleases regarding America & the Iran Job because former President Obama NEVER legalized ANYTHING on this partisan political maneuver. You see, Obama illegally authorized the Iran deal through subversive abuse of an Executive Branch function known as the Executive Order.
This allowed Obama to circumvent Congress and write his own legislative policies—which is 100% unconstitutional. An illegal Executive Branch maneuver, because our US Constitution explicitly states IT IS THE FUNCTION OF THE LEGISLATIVE BRANCH AKA CONGRESS WHICH DETERMINES OUR COUNTRY’S LAWS (TO INCLUDE ALL FOREIGN POLICIES WHICH AFFECT OUR NATIONAL SECURITY)—AND NOT THE EXECUTIVE BRANCH.
Consequently, following in Obama’s footsteps, President Trump simply UNDID the illegal & subversive national security policy in Obama’s highly questionable Executive Order with one of his own–which basically nullified it. Trump is one of 21 presidents who restrained themselves on use of their Executive power by limiting their Executive Orders under 100 to date. At 70 E.Os to date, Trump comes in just after Lincoln–and that guy had a major Civil War on his hands to deal with.

IMO Obama has to be the only President to date whose use of the Executive Order resulted in political policies which have been harmful to this country’s economy, national security, sovereignty or all three. Obama also set a historic precedent in circumventing Congress whenever it contested his party’s policies. Obama basically opened the door to allow any subsequent POTUS to do the same — and this now includes Trump. Damning consequences for the former administration, since this executive power can be wielded to the determent of the former POTUS administration --an embarrassing reality check which Obama is now quite aware. 
So much for Obama’s pro Islam - Anti Israel and anti Semitism legacy. 
The Iran deal was one of the most politically controversial scandals of Obama’s war on America’s national security, the US Constitution, and the American people for the last 8 years. Which Trump thankfully rectified with a stroke of his Executive pen.
edit: trust me when I say the Progressive Left, Radical Left, drive by MSM and hard line Democrats are losing their E. Coli matter all day today. Trump keeping his campaign promises to withdraw from the Paris Accords & recently Iran deal has left them nursing their hemorrhoids in a boiling rage. Now SOS Pompeo is returning home with 3 former N. Korea hostages after trump successfully opened communications with N. Korea. And he did it WITHOUT abusing his Executive power by writing an Executive Order. And has YET to be recognized by the pro Leftist Media propaganda machine, Progressive Liberals, and the increasingly radical left wing Democratic Party—FOR ACTUALLY ACCOMPLISHING SOMETHING THAT ENCOURAGES WORLD PEACE. Unlike the former POTUS who wrote more Executive Orders and actually received a Nobel Peace Prize for doing nothing!
I’m no fan of Obama. But not liking Israel, doesn’t make someone an Anti Semite.
Can’t agree with that either. You can find many many examples of executive orders that were harmful to this nation, including the many signed by Bush which helped craft the mass surveillance state we live in.
That’s not a good reading of history. ~50/yr vs ~35/yr for predecessor. Restraint doesn’t come in the form of a faster EO rate.
Yes, that is correct. However actions speak louder than any pretty words the former POTUS was so well reknown for. Every one of his foreign policies in the Middle East and/or which concerned Israel were harmful to the nation of Israel, its people and Judaism as a whole in the world. Obama’s administration had known MSB members advising him in the WH. Pro Islamic advocates in charge of MY country’s national security. Obama championed policies which were harmful to the well being of our military readiness here and overseas. Our military service members were being directed into hostile enemy territory to (half-heartedly) “fight and defeat” Isis – with aging and inferior equipment and poor combat support. Obama’s policies flooded this country with unvetted people from the most fundamentalist parts of the Muslim world. When places like the RICH GULF OIL STATES THE LIKES OF SUNNI MUSLIM SAUDI ARABIA, KUWAIT ETC. REFUSED TO TAKE THEIR SUNNI MUSLIM BRETHERN IN FROM SYRIA. AND SHITE MUSLIM IRAN REFUSED TO TAKE IN THEIR REFUGEE SHIA MUSLIM BRETHERN.
All of these Muslim countries have either proactively funded or implicitly supported the rise and reign of terror that was ISIS (Obama created ISIS 'cause you know—they’re a Junior Varsity league. 'Member?). Instead of working with the EU and Muslim countries to TAKE IN THEIR BRETHERN, OBAMA DECIDED TO FORCIBLY BRING THE “MUSLIM PILGRIMS HERE”. At risk to national security because these unvetted migrants have resulted in religious driven National Security incidents like:
1.Boston Marathon
2.San Bernadino
3.Orlando
4.Nidal Hassan: https://www.theguardian.com/world/2013/aug/28/fort-hood-shooter-sentenced-death
5.S. Dakota (rape of a female gas station clerk by a recently admitted Somali “Muslim Pilgrim”. Another national story CNN & the MSM covered up)
No Go Zones have now been started in America (just like the 50+ that exist in Sweden)
Muslims exploiting & hiding behind the Constitutional right to freedom of religion…while using TAQUIYYA
https://www.thereligionofpeace.com/pages/quran/taqiyya.aspx
to subversively try to install Sharia Law Courts over American Law aka the US Constitution. Subversively attack, erode and destroy American culture from the inside out. All while claiming Islamophobia & religious victimization???
Congressional testimony against Shariah Law illegally being practiced in America:
Muslim Female Doctor arrested & charged in Michigan for illegal mutilation of female infant genitalia (also a Somali/N. African cultural practice)
And rising antisemitism nationally. Especially in places like Flint MI and other cities like St. Paul Minnesota which has a high Somali refugee population.
Since 2009 A.D. (aka IN THE YEAR OF OUR LORD BEFORE TRUMP EVER DECLARED HE WAS RUNNING FOR POTUS AND WAS NOT DEEMED A POLITICAL THREAT BEFORE 2015) there has been a significant increase in the cultural, racial climate of victimization and religious conflict under Obama’s administration. Under Obama, race, sex, religious & gender Identity Politics became the norm. A lot of the cultural tension came from the direct, forcible import of un-vetted Muslim refugees & other economic migrants into this country. All without Congressional approval. All by the abuse of Obama’s Executive Orders, while hiding his radical leftist political agenda behind the guise of Humanitarianism.
On the cultural and religious side, the influx of Muslims into America–where statistically the more fundamentalist Muslims HAVE NOT ASSIMILATED western culture in places like Sweden, UK & Germany–has potentially jeopardized the safety of the public and particularly American Judaism. Antisemitism sharply increased against American Jews in this country under Obama. And that trend can be traced to the top at the WH.
By abusing the power of the Executive Branch to import Muslims & other economic migrants, Obama basically circumvented Congress for the purpose of creating a new Democrat voter base. The Democratic Party basically gave up on its union blue collar & white collar middle class voter base and proactively began courting minority voters.
If in doubt, see the radical rhetoric the likes of Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer, Perez and other Democrat Party leaders have been preaching to date. At least DACA is now woke and decided to call Pelosi on her Bull$hite “negotiations” over the DACA program
I have one word for all of that, and yes, I read every word.
Yup.
EDIT: I’m from Nebraska, so I’ve seen a lot of these policies firsthand. Of course, my state is nowhere near as bad as California is…mainly because we’re not trying to be our own sovereign state, which we technically are as a union of states, but are following federal laws and establish our state laws within the confines of Federal law and the U.S. Constitution.
It also helps that we’re largely a farmer state. The mindset for being a farmer is very different from being in a corporation or some form of bureaucracy. If we don’t get the job done, the cows don’t get fed or milked, the crops don’t get planted or harvested and the machines don’t get maintained. We have to go out and get our hands dirty and do the job, whether it requires late nights and early mornings, or trying to circumvent a natural disaster like tornadoes, which we do get a lot of. If the job doesn’t get done, there really are no excuses.
I’m pretty much numb to hypocrisy from devote political supporters but this has got set some kind of bench mark. I’ve been pissed at the democratic party for a long time, when they rigged the primary’s it was the last straw for me. But at no time have I ever thought it would be a good idea to through in with someone like trumpty dumpty.
Farming has been industrialized. The people who run modern farms ground up those farmers that you were referring too and used them for fertilizer. It disgusts me when the people who claim to represent farmers are the same people who want to treat the remaining farm workers in this country like cattle.
Edit: I’ve never had the pleasure of visiting Nebraska. I’m in California.
Over $20bil in subsidies (‘95-‘16)
5th out of 50 states
27% of farms did not collect subsidy payments
To understate the significance of ConAgra in NE and in the food industry would be disengenous
Does that mean the Swiss are “racists” like “Trumpty dumpty” too?
The surge in the great mass migration from the 3rd world peaked in 2015.
Are you also aware that SWEDEN the UTOPIA of all things borderless, Multi-Culti, and soul of Socialism itself, CLOSED THEIR BORDERS BACK IN 2015 —when their leftist politicians realized the country could NO LONGER SUSTAIN IT’S NATIVE & REFUGEE POPULATION? 
Are Danes and OMG SWEDES now racist because they dared to close their borders? Because their dying native population that supports the 20%+ refugee population is struggling to do so at the 40% tax rate? Which is even higher as of today some 2 years later? That it appears the Swedish government has finally begun to grasp the essence of what Donald Trump Jr. “racist” comment was about the skittle jar being too full? <===DJT’s tweet btw, had NOTHING to do with racism and EVERYTHING to do with how chain migration, zero borders & a welfare state would break the economic capacity of the wealthiest nations. Regardless of whether that was the Socialist utopia welfare state of Sweden or that evil, greedy, racist country called Capitalist America
Looks like the most welcoming nation on earth (where Zero racism, slavery, anti-semitism and capitalism used to not exist) appears to have national identity AND borders after all…
It seems Scandinavia in general has been rethinking the whole cultural suicide to be fair:
Oh yes…looks like Sweden is finally Woke on what mass migrations of Islam means for their country, citizens, economy and overall culture of tolerance in the future. It took the complety avoidable murders of Swedish citizens to get to that point----and the criminal migrant didn’t even use firearms!
Is Matteo Salvini and the Italian people who newly elected him in March "Trumpty dumpty"racists too?
Thank you Obama, globalist Co-conspirators Trudeau, Frau Merkel, EU Headquarters Brussels, Mrs. May & the usual left wing loony fringe that is the UK Labor Party
TL;DR: 
This is why I opted NOT to have these people run my country!
May be we should stop destabilizing third world governments and creating so many refugees? Your ilk wont be happy until you rebuild the shower rooms of your ancestors.
Definition of Semitic
1 : of, relating to, or constituting a subfamily of the Afro-Asiatic language family that includes Hebrew, Aramaic, Arabic, and Amharic
2 : of, relating to, or characteristic of the Semites
I’ve got news for you. The Palestinians are Semitic. Most Israelis do not Identify as Jewdain.
The people in this country don’t like it when people take other peoples homes, create an apartheid and then say “It’s ok, we’re jewish”.
Your grand narrative needs tweaking but not worth time
At least this is the one thing we can most definitely agree on.
Yes this has most definitely been the case for the last 8 years. Especially towards the last fiscal year the Obama administration was in office. Where Obama demanded a trillion dollar deficit budget in Dec 2015—and the RINO CUCK Congress meekly gave it to him. Without a whimper. A good chunk of that historical trillion dollar budget was to fund the 80k+ “Muslim Pilgrim” voters Obama was importing for the DNC Party
Under Obama, Muslims flooding out from Middle East countries (aka Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan, N. African countries like Somalia, Lybia, egypt, and NON CIVIL UNREST countries like Saudi Arabia, Kuwait and Qatar etc) for a far more economically prosperous country aka EU, Canada,UK and America. Now why haven’t any of these Muslim refugees tried to seek refugee status in S. America, Mexico, S. Africa, China, North Korea, India or Madagascar to date? Why the obsession with Germany, UK, Sweden and other Scandinavian countries over the EU? I mean the whole goal of being a refugee is to find the next safest zone/country right? So why have Muslim refugees REFUSED to stop traveling the moment they set foot on EU soil in countries like Greece, Italy, Spain, Hungary etc etc? Why did they insist on pressing towards Germany etc. when the first EU countries they set foot in were NOT at warP
So yes, you’re 100% right. Especially given the Obama administration’s Lottery system (which did NOT vet migrants or assesses their suitability to adapt to American/western culture, or ability to TOLERATE people of other faiths, cultures, etc like Jews/LGBTQ etc). The rate at which anti American, fundamentalist Muslims were teleporting themselves into free welfare state here in America definitely drained their native countries of man power.
Under Trump, our military troops have once again DONE refugees A FAVOR by doing ALL THEIR FIGHTING and eliminating the threat of ISIS. A conflict which btw, the majority of Iraqi & Syrian males of military fighting age were so keen on avoiding the responsibility of defending their native countries. Instead many Muslim males left their women & children behind to flee to the safety of the EU & N. America. Leaving the US, Russia & other EU countries to fight & to defeat ISIS.
Which is EXACTLY why all the “Muslim Pilgrims” (true Syrian refugees & economic Muslim migrants alike) who Obama imported and dumped on the US tax payer, need to LEAVE America ASAP. It’s the only way Middle East countries like Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan and N. African countries like Sudan/Somalia can ever hope to stabilize & recover economically. You can’t do that with Western welfare programs the likes of Obama’s Refugee Resettlement program that literally picked people up and forcibly transplanted them into an alien(western/Christian) culture. Muslims refugees and other economic migrants need to return to their countries and FIX the problems that were created (not by Americans but their own corrupt native governments and/or religious policies).
Because events like Arab Springs was NOT created by America. The fallout with Arab Springs and resulting mass migration into the EU should’ve NEVER become an American tax payer problem. Yet true to the best interests of the American people, the Obama administration went ahead and made it just that. At a time when many Americans were struggling with record levels of unemployment and trying to keep their homes. America ALREADY has it’s own problems that need to be resolved. We still have homeless, jobless citizens/vets & Naturalized Citizens that it needs to cared for FIRST. We have a sh#tty educational system that needs to be fixed to better educate AMERICAN and legally Naturalized Citizens first. America needs to take care of AMERICANS first. Before any Muslim Pilgrims, DACA and/or any other illegal economic migrants from the rest of the world. Period.
