The most annoying thing about being human right now...

1. According to Republicans, I am not human.
Mitt Romney said so, so it must be true. He almost seems like a positive influence now compared to trump and company.

10. If corporations are people, they have to die at some point, right?

13. As I recall...
... that malignant phrase was uttered on the fly at a campaign event, "Corporations are people, my friend!" It was as if he was chastising the questioner for ever having doubted it. But then, old Mitt's private equity firm, Bain Capital, borrowed its business model from the Mafia, so it's not like he gave a happy rat's ass about the harm corporations inflict on the American public on a daily – shit, on an hourly – basis. SO I would cut "Mittens" zero slack; he's still a ****ing Republican.

The theme here is. MORE GOVERNMENT !!

Walmart's CEO made $27 million for the year, but roughly $20 million of that was deferred. Still, if you took that and divided it among the total number of Walmart employees worldwide, they get roughly $11.00 a person for the entire year. Less than a dollar a month. That's less than a quarter a week.

If every problem in the world can be solved by you netting an additional 25 cents a week why aren't you solving the problems by saving a quarter dollar of your personal spending every week?

DUmmie Swede really should leave posting stupid memes to Meme Queen kpete.

Even some DU-folk know that "cancer" is hundreds or thousands of different types of cancer (and that if Trump cured cancer, most DU-folk would hate hime for it). A few DU-folk understand that companies that develop treatments for cancers benefit from it financially (IOW, there is considerable financial incentive to develop successful treatments), something many DUmmies would hate because they believe it should be free (not that they have developed a single cancer treatment).

As for "ending world hunger", governments are often the barrier to many countries being self-sufficient, and government corruption is a barrier to and/or a parasite off relief efforts. Are there any guesstimates of the overhead costs of UN food relief? 70%? 80%? Higher?
