Politics 7 years, 3 months agoThere is some interesting info on this site (which seems legit). How or where do you get to see a breakdown of the individual donations that each candidate gets. Similar to this from the NRA.
Is there any merit to thinking that Trump might become his own worst enemy when the campaign really gets going? Will there be such a thing as Trump fatigue,…[Read more]

Politics 7 years, 3 months agoDetailed Maps of the Donors Powering the 2020 Democratic Campaigns (as of July 2019, per New York Times)
Focus is mostly on Sanders, Warren, Buttigieg, Harris, Biden, and O’Rourke, with mentions of 15 others.

I’ve neglected to follow the debates, but am hoping/wishing that Dems can favor a moderate candidate that can more likely beat Trump.…[Read more]

Atheist Humor 7 years, 3 months agoWas disappointed. Was promptly asked to leave behind our luggage in the entryway. My husband and I were completely shocked as we presumed we’d need our belongings for this 40 day cruise. Continued in and was not shown to our room. Asked a staff member and they only laughed and walked away. Nothing funny at all about that. We were not only a…[Read more]

handicap the electionNot sure what to take seriously (if anything) here, but I’ll say anyway that if big money corrupts campaigns, more of it will just invite even more corruption and undesirable opportunists.
I’m betting on candidates voluntarily greatly limiting big money donations, founding or finding an internet-wide platform…[Read more]

Politics 7 years, 4 months agoHere’s a campaign funding idea. Campaign donations are allowed up to some ungodly high limit. But the government’s Handicapper General (a character borrowed from a Kurt Vonnegut novel) would handicap the election by making up the difference for the candidate receiving less money. If one candidate receives $22 million in donations but the other…[Read more]

No comment 7 years, 6 months agoThe median data below (midpoint of the frequency distribution) is so disturbing. Looks like a lot of boomers and Gen X folks will not be retiring or living off social security alone. The average amounts saved appear to be skewed by the folks who have saved up.
