So unAmerican. We are supposed to encourage competition. That is where innovation and price competition lives. But cooperation between so called competitors is a disaster for American consumers. We have oligarchies in many fields making a disaster for American competition. As an example .our internet speed is 17th in the world. Countries with real competition have faster and faster internet speeds to lure customers. They have lower prices too because of competition. They have improved the systems too.
Our providers convinced the government to allow them to add 5 bucks a customer, billions of dollars, to help maintain and improve the internet pipelines. They pocketed it.
Is safe drinking water in everyone’s self interest?
Yes, and that cooperation is called, in some places, government: the only real recourse the many people without power have against the very few who do.
Since you’ve obviously just discovered humor, I’m going to give you some advice: Less Is More. Statements like the one you made are what we call “over-the-top” and have no subtlety.
Well that makes for a less interesting and crazy primary season.
She should run anyway. I’m pretty sure even the reanimated corpse of a goat would be more competant than The One.
Which one?
Interesting. That link is over at Fucker Carlson’s new playground, the Daily Caller, so it’s not some liberal rag trying to smear her.
The One. The one we all worship because he has us mind controlled.
You mean Glenn Beck, then. I agree. That would be even worse. But he’s not running.
Do you think they’re making it up?
Clearly, God is smiting her for her sins.
Well, just because it’s not some liberal rag trying to smear her, doesn’t mean it’s not some Chamber-of-Commerce rag trying to smear her. It’s possible it’s a set-up to get the front-running tea partier off the train so Mittens, the darling of the business wing, can get a clear shot.
Glad your filter’s working Jay.
The Hypno-Toad is running? Awesome!
:rolleyes:
Only if the story pans out. Was she admitted to the hospitals listed in the story, or to any hospital at the identified dates? Does she get migraines? How often? Does she in fact carry meds for them? If Carlson’s anonymous sources are lying to him this is a non-story. If they are telling the truth then she has to start answering a lot of medical questions.
Yeah, it remains to be seen if the “liberal” media will jump all over Bachmann popping pills the way they ought to.
Ah yes. I remember that moment during Obama’s speech to the Democratic National Convention where we all together decided that truly he was the Messiah, the Chosen One who would lead us all from the neocon darkness into the light of liberalnessitude.
In fact, here’s a dramatic reconstruction of what happened. It’s just how I remember it…
That one.
