North Korea and US politics

[Kroffe]

Luckily Republicans are "pro-life". But not when you've already been born it seems.

I've never understood why they can be against universal healthcare.

What do you mean?
People should not die because they are poor?
Thats communist talk, and i will die before i help my fellow Americans.

 

[Kroffe]

Ronald Wright hit the nail on the head i think.

"
“Socialism never took root in America because the poor see themselves not as an exploited proletariat but as temporarily embarrassed millionaires.”

Not sure socialism would be a panacea for the US [or for that matter the UK's problems] but capitalism on steroids doesn't/won't work either in the long run. I think in the nordic countries where you have smaller populations, good government and services are easier to manage/achieve.

Trump ought to be challenged on what actions he is taking to reduce the national debt; one term of office, 4 years = about 1.6 trillion dollars of interest payments net [1.6,000,000,000,000, or 1 thousand 600 billion dollars]

Yeah, thats true.
Also, i think its "to late" or what i should call it, to change Usa now.
Or atleast it would take a long long time to do it.

But who knows. Its pretty different depending on what state you are in.
Maybe i can go over there and teach Arnold my hippie-communist ways, and he can teach the Americans.

Is it a surprise debt is at a record high under Trump? I mean, the guy was able to let a casino go bankrupt...

You'd be surprised... I know school districts in Oklahoma, which is a deep red state, give free meals to kids of parents who can't afford it. If that isn't socialism in its truest form, what is?

The meals being paid by taxes, and therefore being "free" for all the children.

 

[TheAddict]

dont woz about the nat debt Mack. Trump just got a 100% bonus and doa2 contributes 100%.

Well, sure... But they use the taxes from all to give back to the people who need it the most, aka solidarity which is one of the three pillars of socialism.

How do i get in on this deal?
Also, am i allowed to play Dead or alive 1 & Whos the bride?

Out of interest what are the other two pillars?

 

[Kroffe]

Actually playing doa2 as we speak, and just had this bonus that made me get my hopes up a bit.
Maybe next time.

 

[Kroffe]

Pretty sure thats the new slot, The pillars of asgard.

 

[sufferinsilence]

Out of interest what are the other two pillars?

Equality and social justice

Bit of a derail so I'll pretend to apologise. But, honestly, if youve got insufferable neighbours who deliberately try to play loud music to piss you off like they are some smug bastard. Play this son of a bitch, put your speakers faced against their wall, and wack that volume to the max. Trust me, it's a winner.

Derail?
Have you seen this thread?
Couple weeks back an admin checked in, he has not been the same since.

Here's something to lighten up your morning, be warned, quite a contrast to @adamtheaddict 's piece!

It's a bit self-regulatory in here, even @mack341 isn't the same @mack341 I noticed. He seems to be doubting his feelings towards Trump these days

 

[TheAddict]

I like to keep you guys on your toes ... I can occasionally be critical of Trump, it's just normally for a totally different reason than the msm go after him

The real fun will happen next year, there are still rumours Mrs Bill Clinton might run again, that would likely torpedo biden...hmm I wonder if that's been one of the reasons for this ukraine stuff to come out in the first place, to harm biden's reputation from the collateral damage and clear a path for Hillary, as he's still in the way occupying the centre. Kill two birds with one impeachment stone, remove biden and weaken trump.

You should contact Mr T, I am sure he would gladly give you a well-paid job in the other department he just set up: Secretary of State for Conspiracy Theories! You can then finally start rooting out the "deep state"!

They will be getting more of his attention and more funding than the Space Force or his Wall.

 

[lotusch]

Heyo!
Found a new lowroller slot. =)

Has anyone tried this one?
Wonderfully simple 5-liner with what seems to be good potential.
5p lowrolling to see if i can manage to hit the 1000x guy.
@lotusch this might be something for you.

Wild can appear on reel 2-3-4 and expands to cover whole reel.
Not sure if you can get multiple, only ever seen one.
For some reason the info-tab about the slot is in german.

It can go quite a few spins without paying anything, but then it chucks in a 10-30x win, so it has not been very costly to play.

That looks aweful, how could you think I would like low tech slots like these.
I am slightly offended!

It actually played pretty well.
Got a few teases for the 1000x line.
Think i left the slot about even.

Merkur slots are pretty nonchalant about the wins it gives out.
A 5x win and 100x win gets the same treatment.
Kind of refreshing to not be hit by "BIGWIIWNWNIWNWIN" every time you get a 10x hit. =)

*me sitting here waiting for 10 pages of Trump's Greta Thunberg's Time person of the year comments

 

[goatwack]

Well Greta gets my vote as person of the year

*that's the first one out of the way
