Boots, ordinarily I would be with you on the idea of assisted suicide but I have some serious fears with the way our political system is evolving, not just republicans and democrats, but fierce partisans who refuse to bend or show any common sense. The drug war, declared ridiculous by no less than National Review 30 years ago, has reached the extremes that people with chronic pain and their physicians can no longer take a vacation, because they have to see their doctor face-to-face for every tiny amount of narcotics that ease their pain. People in constant pain without relief will be much more likely to wish to end that pain by all means necessary including suicide, so we make it easy to obtain that? Why can't we enable them to have a more comfortable life rather than just killing them off??! | 00 | not toxic |

There you go again making more false claims. At no time no where did I or anyone to my knowledge say "Hilary Clinton paid people to incite violence".
The facts are as I stated [1.] " Self admissions by Democrat activist leaders were video taped", [2.] "including video [showing] multiple acknowledgements that [even] Hillary herself had direct knowledge and approved of such actions."
Since that exposure the FBI has confirmed funding came from the DNC Democrat National Committee, That there was knowledge shared among DNC leaders, Clinton campaign staff which included Hillary herself of these disgraceful tactics.

It appears the OMA leadership is in a difficult position. They have some Doctors who are happy with their high incomes and preferential tax treatment, and others who are unhappy because they want the big pay increases that other public sector unions have received over the past 12 years.
Unfortunately for Doctors, they don't run and finance the Liberals election campaigns like the teachers and other unions do, so they don't get the paybacks. And the OMA has some specialists who refuse to have their pay lowered, even though they have had huge pay increases because of technology, and their ability to perform more procedures in a much shorter amount of time
Either way, the pay increases the public sector unions have been receiving are unsustainable with a $300+ Billion deficit and $1 Billion dollars going out the door each month in interest. So the government has to clamp down on costs, especially on health care and Doctor's salary's are a significant component of this expense. | 00 | not toxic |

One would think that Adventists who are liberal in the classical sense (I include myself in that category) rather than progressively liberal would appreciate the importance of keeping church and state separate. But when your political beliefs take on the characteristics of religious values, and you start using the Bible to support those values, the distinction is pretty tough to see and maintain.
This dangerous proclivity is conservative in the sense that political powers tend to stamp out religion as a source of legitimate authority and/or invoke religious symbols to reinforce their values. Those who seek radical transformation sound quite liberal until they have succeeded. Then they become quite repressive and conservative when the roots and fruits of what they have planted are threatened.
Does anyone think for a second that, if liberals were in charge of the G.C. non-ordination of women would be an policy option anywhere in the world church? Not a chance! | 00 | not toxic |

Nice article,
How about the following.
We could have spaces conveniently placed, developed by the state, where people can sell what they can create at home or access where ever.
These need not be expensive to generate as all that is required, in its most basic iteration, would be parking and basic structures from which to peddle ones wares.
So that I can make what ever I can at home and easily go and sell it.
or with my vehicle go to the big market and sell the produce at the local market.
The big retailers of our world may not like it, but I am sure they could adapt and anyway the system is supposed to be based on the idea, of open entry to the market.
Instead of having metro cops harassing people trying to sell goods, they should be facilitated.
This could in turn generate production hubs.
We need to start by coming up with practical measures that can be introduced tomorrow. | 00 | not toxic |

Let's go over this again:
Obama followed the constitution and asked for permission to use force against Syria - he was denied by congress. So if Trump ignores the constitution you don't care? I know full well this didn't start under Trump's watch but it's not like Obama sat on his hands and ignored it...One more time - do you or do you not have an issue with a president ignoring the constitution and using force against a sovereign nation without congressional approval?
Putin is a total A-hole of the highest degree. His complicity in the civil war in Syria as well as his duplicity at home is enough to make me wish him dead. How's that for a derogatory statement? Does that make me a patriot in your eyes now?
Finally, Trump can play Battleship any way he wants - of course it's his prerogative. My point is why? You are not going to scare Kim Jong Un and you might piss him off enough to push him over the edge. Maybe he should have talked to the Chinese president about this. | 00 | not toxic |

After saying the door is shut, the Pope says that women have the capacity to be priests (September 28, 2015 NCR article). Despite the headlines on or about November 1, 2016 (NCR), the Pope says aboard the plane from Sweden that the teaching "remains." That could mean "endures;" however it could mean, "it is the status quo." At this point one might assume he means, "it is a done deal." However -- then he says,"it goes in that direction." So not a done deal, but instead, a process that has a direction. This is an enormous step forward to define the teaching not as a done deal, but as a process, perhaps a process of discernment. His affirming the Magdalene as apostle also has interesting implications. If real Christians 'don't put up walls,' as he has said, then he should begin dialoging with the organization of Roman Catholic women priests, just as he is willing to dialog with the Lutheran Church. | 00 | not toxic |

As the monopoly issuer of the US dollar, the federal government doesn't need to tax its citizens or borrow money from itself or another nation like China in order to spend. It can literally create new dollars out of thin air via keystrokes for a particular purpose as appropriated by Congress.
Thus unlike a private household or business or even a nation like Greece which gave up its monetary sovereignty when it joined the EU, the US federal government can never go broke. Furthermore, federal deficits mean surpluses in the private sector, while federal surpluses mean deficits in the private sector which ultimately lead to recessions or worse depressions as the private sector is merely a currency user, not an issuer like the federal government.
The only natural constraint to federal deficit spending is inflation which federal taxes are used to keep under control by removing excess dollars out of the economy, thus giving our currency its value. But they do not fund federal spending. | 00 | not toxic |

2) In February 2015, Trump said, in an interview with Hugh Hewitt that he would commit to release his tax returns when nominated. "I would release tax returns. I have certainly no objection to showing tax returns.” Now he won't.
3) He promised to repeal the Affordable Healthcare Act on his first day in office. Still waiting.

My own impression of John Horgan's promises is that he is behaving in an irresponsible and reckless manner. The BC Prosperity Fund is real. It is like a savings account. The BC NDP are making all kinds of big spending promises in this campaign because Mulcair failed to win in the federal election in 2015 with a financially conservative platform. The federal NDP promised to keep the budget balanced and they ended up in third place. So in the BC election this year Horgan is going for broke with a lot of big spending promises, and he is also promising to empty out the BC Prosperity Fund. If the Prosperity Fund is fake, how can Horgan spend the money in it?
There are massive real estate bubbles in Vancouver and Toronto. Greece still hasn't defaulted on their bonds and left the Euro yet. China has a massive real estate bubble. There is the possibility of protectionism. This is not a good time to empty out the savings account. This is a time to set money aside for a rainy day. | 00 | not toxic |

"While the city, with its property tax revenue rising, has steadily increased its spending on parks operations in recent years, virtually all of the added money has gone toward increased pay and benefits for employees and to rising materials costs, city budget figures show.
~
The city’s parks staff has remained flat at 79 full-time-equivalent workers in recent years, while the total labor cost of those workers has increased 21 percent — $8.2 million from $6.8 million — since 2013-14, according to the figures."
This pencils out to something like a 7% increase in costs per annum. In other words, unsustainable. I support parks as much as anyone, but the city needs to get a handle on costs before asking for more tax dollars. | 00 | not toxic |

As the fish farming grows world wide, as it will, consumers care about prices and availability more than philosophical arguments by fisherman. Alaska can and should continue to focus on the quality of wild salmon. Alaska is not going to stop the farming in the rest of the world becasue we do not like farmed fish. There is a segment of the population who will continue to seeks the best quality available regardless of price. Those buyers are the exception not the rule.
As I see the situation it is parallel to the fast food industry. There are low priced fast food joints on every corner of most cities. There also is a place in those cities for the white table cloth restaurants. The customers of either are there becasue of price and service. The preponderance of fast food places overwhelms the white table cloth places, serves as evidence that price not quality is what drives the vast majority of customers through which door. | 00 | not toxic |
