Re: GRABBING MORE VOTES: Far-Left Dem Congresswoman Introduces Amendment For 16-Year-Olds To Vote

There should be 2 counter bills. One for 21yrs (if you're not old enough to decide on drinking, then you shouldn't be old enough to vote); and one for 26yrs (If you're still a dependent on health care, you don't have the responsibility to vote).

A little further down, "After being called out for the tweet's inaccuracies, Ocasio-Cortez clarified that she meant the Afghanistan war"

After which, the rest of the article centers around AUMF which was a direct result of 911.

Re: 2020 Odds, GOP Style: There's Trump, Pence, Ryan And ...Shapiro

I would too, but I think a Haley/Shapiro ticket would be better, though it wastes Shapiro's debating ability. Haley has proven experience in politics. I think the "outsider" pull that helped Trump has diminished a bit...afterwards, I can see Shapiro stepping up to the plat for Prez.

Re: The Fruits Of Multiculturalism: Staggering Weekly Rate Of Acid Attacks In U.K.

aeson25 — Wed, 15 Aug 2018 07:27:27 -0000

No no no...don't use a real metric, that would just be silly. Just acids that are perceived as being more threatening and larger bottles; Spoiled wine with an aerator add on; vinegar bottles with fancy pour spouts; and any fully semi-automatic acid dispensers that put out one pour per pump without having to turn the whole bottle over to dispense. Ascorbic acid sounds pretty bad for people...lets get rid of that too.

Make sure to ban all acid in "threatening looking" (aka assault style) bottles.

Re: Starbucks’ Solution To Replace Plastic Straws Backfires Big-Time

aeson25 — Thu, 12 Jul 2018 14:26:27 -0000

Par for the course...Cash for clunkers to decrease carbon emissions and stimulate economy actually increased over all carbon emissions and shifted sale from one month to another. Minimum wage is intended to increase wages to lowest earners, but actually loses their jobs and makes cheap products less affordable to the same income demographic. Stimulus was intended to help the economy, the jobless rate skyrocketed above the estimated rate without the stimulus. Racial quotas are intended to counter act racism, but instead creates new forms of racism and inserts those who are lower in ability (and I'm NOT saying because of race) into an environment where they struggle to compete. All the while, the free market is rectifying all the above without centralized intervention or taxes. Cars today put out less carbon at full speed than they used to in idle. Companies are always trying to reduce plastic in products to reduce cost. Markets have repeatedly shown to react well to real market signals. All things being equal, a business owners will always do better if they don't limit themselves in terms of clientele and suppliers.

Re: Biden leads 2020 Dem field in new poll

aeson25 — Thu, 28 Jun 2018 11:26:42 -0000

Should have been Romney in 2012 and the US wouldn't be in this predicament.
...Not that I'm personally a huge fan, but Trump is a fallout IN PART from picking a very left president for two terms over two very moderate republicans. If Biden was elected in '16, though more moderate than Obama (or perhaps just less ambitious), Trump may have been still be a strong contender for '20...then we've circled back to the same problem.

Re: Two Norwegian Legislators Nominate Trump For Nobel Peace Prize

Don't worry. Clearly from past winners, you don't actually have to "do" anything to get the award. The "prize" is pretty meaningless at this point.

Re: Shapiro at 'National Review': Are Democrats Blowing It?

aeson25 — Tue, 05 Jun 2018 10:54:01 -0000

Run for office. Teach at a school to offset the liberal lean. Start a successful media portal that engages youths, or any media portal (like the Daily wire). Become a columnist that engages the opposite site with insightful and persuasive arguments. Engage colleges with insightful opposing thought (see Steve Crowder's "Change My Mind")...that's just a start. If you're not willing to do some legwork, you shouldn't be complaining.

I'm not necessarily sold on this, but maybe the left is right. Maybe 18-20 year olds, as a whole(there's always exceptions), can no longer be treated as adults. Alcohol sales are already at 21, maybe we raise the voting age to 21, sale of guns to 21 and set an exception for any 18-20 year old for all three if you haven joined any of our armed services.

That being said, I don't ever remember the use of "mankind" to refer to males either. If you look it up, that usage is considered "archaic".
