    Tell you what you abolish all government assistance IE: Welfare food stamps etc. and maybe no electoral college could work. But as long as votes are purchased with tax dollars it's a big fat no.
    Never mind it'll always be no!

    Hillary's latest pathetic display is more verification why she had no business being on the ballot in the first place. I can only imagine what a debilitating emotional trigger this thread is for you.

    Hillary is pathetic. But this is a money grab and at that, she's winning. Yes there are people stupid enough to pay to listen to her shit.

    Cause Republicans aren't bought off? Food stamps are pennies in comparison to corporate welfare.

    Electoral college prevents California and New York from deciding every election.

    Wait the states that have the highest population would have the largest say in electing the president? What a crazy idea.

    Instead we have a system where in 4/5 of the country your vote doesn't even matter and ohio Virginia Florida and Pennsylvania decide every election
    It's because we don't want to have people whose only meaningful life skill is operating their Iphone to make all of the decisions for the people that put food on their table and clothes on their backs.

    I think Hillary would have still lost if elections were decided by popular vote.

    (yes, I had to edit that. it takes time to be pithy)

    I'm sure you didn't do it on purpose - but those people who live in 'the country' don't much like city folks telling them how to manage their lands from behind desks.

    well, it isn't like you give a shit what the Federales say on your guns n' religion compound anyway, but both Houses of Congress as constituted favor rural over urban dwellers in terms of voting power, as well as the other unwritten archaic practice that the two rural states of Iowa and New Hampshire have an outsized voice in who gets to be Prez in the first place... so...
    Again, you wouldn't be swapping tears and cum with dhdawg if your candidate would have won.

    Really it's about keeping those 3 to 5 million illegals from voting.

    Them cunty folk's hypocrisy about big guvmint makes me laff from time to time. Us here city slickers are the ones that subsidize their roads, schools, etc. If you're a farmer that irrigates at all in WA, CA, ID, etc, all that infrastructure came from big government boondoggles and they only pay pennies on the dollar for the actual cost of the water.

    They aren't subsidizing the farmer, they subsidize the food you eat. Now go back to your topicalchica handle and poast a shitty pole. It's your wheel house.

    Truth. Those who benefitted the most from the magnanimous act of reclaiming, irrigating and powering the west, at considerable cost to the taxpayer, now posture as "self reliant" superiority guy. They don't seem to grasp their bread is buttered by the taxpayer. Do they like to eat?

    There you go again KaiserKewg - your ability to miss the point never ceases to amaze. No shit, BOR and Army Corps projects help subsidize the cost of food production; I never said anything implying that wasn't the case. But those farmers are also earning a pretty nice living as a result of tax payer subsidized cheap water. And I don't have a problem with them doing so, per say. My observation here is that if you live in fucking rural American you need to understand a little of the history of how you get to exist out there in the first place and quite hating on the federales so much. Who built the dams? Not private enterprise. Who brought the electrical grid and roads the rural parts of the US? It was big fucking guvmint, paid for with city slicker tax dollars.

    Except the people that built those dams, power grids and the like weren't limp wristers who lived in cities. Like I said, stick to cyber handying @BearsWiin and posting of shit polls.

    Your grandfather chaired the Riverside County GOP back in the day, correct (love the bar at the Mission Inn btw)? So you saw San Joaquin valley and Colorado river water flowing voluminously and transforming the Coachella into an Ag powerhouse. Same thing in the San Joaquin valley (CVP)and eastern WA (BPA) Water, power, fertile land -- all delivered by taxpayers. Sounds like crony capitalism at its finest.

    I agree. We should save our water by diverting it away from Southern California. I prefer my oranges from Florida anyway. Problem solved.

    Agree. Reclaiming the west was a great victory for American intelligence and resourcefulness. The bullet train is a fool's errand.
