STATE HATE: How Government Hurts The Poor →
laliberty:
Just a few quick examples, as to elaborate on this question:
Minimum wage laws ostensibly exist to offer poorer workers better pay, but tend to leave the lower-skilled workers unemployed instead. 1
Tariffs and tough anti-immigration laws purportedly protect American citizens - poor, lower-skilled individuals in particular - from the “unfair” competition of cheap foreigners....

Racism and liberals... Hand in hand
alonmg:
if you want a modern day version of the way blacks were treated by some southern whites back in the 50s and 60s, all you need to do is watch the way white liberals speak to and about black conservatives. It’s vicious, it’s without justification, and sometimes it’s vile. And no black conservative has been the recipient of more race hate than Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas. American...

It’s also necessary to note that Nicki Minaj’s performance would never have been approved if, instead of mocking Christianity, she had insulted or mocked Judaism or Islam
Imagine if she had brought someone dressed as Mohammed. Imagine.

Right wing extremists, focus on YOURSELVES; stop speaking for all of us. Please. I am so sick of hearing this everywhere I go. Don’t like The Pill, don’t take The Pill.
Stop mixing religion and politics. I love Jesus, but I don’t need a bishop in my doctor’s office with me.

I hate the media omg FOX News is so biased. I’m tolerant so I hate those racist sexist homophobic people. I hate corporations trying to feed us bullshit. But I love MSNBC.
Haha.

Sex causes pregnancy.
If you have sex, you can get pregnant.
If you want to significantly decrease your chances of getting pregnant, you can use protection.
Using protection is not the same exact thing as an abortion, because nothing is fertilized.
Sperm cannot cause pregnancy. Eggs cannot cause pregnancy. The combination of sperm and eggs causes pregnancy.

First Lady Michelle Obama next week will embark on a three-day, eight-stop, taxpayer-funded tour of the nation to celebrate the second anniversary of her “Let’s Move” kids weight reduction initiative.
The trip will take her mostly, though not exclusively, to presidential swing states, including stops in Iowa, Arkansas, Texas and four appearances in the crucial battleground state...
“Obama is not responsible for the current downturn. Yes, he was a Senator and he was part of the bipartisan consensus for easy money, Fannie/Freddie subsidies, bailout-fueled moral hazard, and a playing field tilted in favor of debt, but his share of the blame wouldn’t even merit an asterisk.
My problem with Obama is that he hasn’t fixed any of the problems. Instead, he has kept in place...
