Most of the far left want all money out of politics, know that corporations aren’t people, and that politicians spend way too much time raising money instead of legislating.
The problem is that the moderates are convinced that they need to spend the same amount as the right wing super pacs. Which Trump proved was probably unnecessary in 2016 (though he has the electoral college advantage that the left lacks).
Getting the money out would also get Wallstreet and aipac out too.
I still haven’t forgiven him for the ear biting.
Yeah I suspect all his training has been just so he doesn’t die or go full vegetable after the knockout.
Yeah, even a real fucking primary would probably have helped.
I really hope it won’t have to come to physical conflict, because we won’t win that with a 12% deficit either.
Yes: Pinto beans are called chili beans for a goddamn reason. But also kidney beans in the mix (and black beans at least) are delicious too.
We did it to Germany, but it probably needs another dose of chemo at this point, like a disturbing amount of places around the world.
It’s incredible how round the diatom is.
They’re looking for an excuse to blame the victim.

If you go by length instead of ridership it seems extremely plausible. Australia is a big place and building 2 lanes for mostly freight trains is an unnecessary expense.
Sidings/loops/passing tracks, allow trains to pass on a single track, and since things can be more regular scheduled (ideally anyway) with trains, they can work well enough and with much less track building needed.
Around 55 years, when the southern strategy was enacted to solidify racist support for Republicans.
Before that the parties were more mixed and it was the confederates and robber barons doing the damage. Before that it was the slave owners. And before that it was the colonizers. Before that it was probably whichever tribe had the best growing season or pointiest flint arrowheads.
I’m starting to second guess what the point of progress really is. Are we trying to ride humanity out until the heat death of the universe? Or just the next billion years before the sun boils our oceans away? Another 2000 years so today’s assholes can become deities? 52 more years the the US Tricentennial?
And now a whole generation of 12 year old boys thinks that’s what normal sex is like.
