This.

They needs to seriously restructure the benefit problem we have going on at the moment, welcome refugees with open arms and perhaps try to tax the 1% that live down South.

Sort that out, open up some factories where refugees can earn something meaningful and get on with it.

Bernie has won 7 of the last 8 Democratic Primaries...

Don't call it a comeback!

Gotcha!

He had the hair transplant.

She had the brain transplant.

Might be onto a winner here!

:pound:

Re: US Election 2016
 

Nothing wrong with a hair transplant.

The way I see it, women improve their looks everyday with makeup. Men should be allowed to improve their looks once with a hair transplant. Alls fair in love and war right? ;)

Re: US Election 2016
 

back to this robot talk though, it is an extremely valid point

as technology improves, the requirement for manual human labor and work, is drastically reduced. Intelligent planning and programming will limit the amount of employees needed to carry out a job that would normally employ many.

what this is already doing to the economy is creating a massive gap in the pay structure. ANYONE working traditional jobs will see their quality of life reduce as they cannot keep up with the business owners who control this technology implementation.

YES, there will need to be more jobs to upkeep the robots and such, but the time and money they save goes into the pockets of the robots superiors and them only. Normal working people will just chase inflation and it will be a losing race as more money distributes to the clever people who implement the most technology.

regulation will be the only way to control this but its not very possible.

life is already getting too complex for our simple human minds to handle, people are freaking left and right as we try to adapt and keep up with this tech.

I give it another few years before we all blow up

Re: US Election 2016
 

Life ain't fair :)

:eek:

In the male Trump, this has not worked.


Still butt ugly!

Re: US Election 2016
 

Money "trumps" looks sometimes... :FF:

Re: US Election 2016
 

Haha!

As a guy, I really have no opinion, but I will say he looks a lot healthier and more vibrant than the average 69 year old guy!

Everything is relative!

BTW my girl says he was a looker 30 years ago.

Re: US Election 2016
 

Still obnoxious.

I've been away for couple of weeks... Whats the latest? Who will be ruling over the land of the free, home of the brave?

Re: US Election 2016
 

Trump is still the front-runner. New York votes tonight, 95 delegates at stake.

Re: US Election 2016
 

New York primaries done

Re: US Election 2016
 

Trump is pretty much smashing it

Re: US Election 2016
 

Yes....by my calculations, it's about 90% likely (based on recent polls) that by next Tuesday, it will become mathematically impossible for Cruz to win on the first ballot, which pretty much guarantees he will drop out.

Re: US Election 2016
 

As per the news it is already confirmed that Cruz has no possibility

Re: US Election 2016
 

I did the math and I didn't come up with that conclusion. Maybe they're only counting committed delegates, because there are delegates that are not committed via the states primary voting.

Either way, whether my math is right or not, by next Tuesday, even by my (likely incorrect) calculations, Cruz will be eliminated. (Unless the recent polls were drastically incorrect)

Re: US Election 2016
 

Trump and Hilary cleaned up tonight

Re: US Election 2016
 

It's over for both parties.

Trump and Hillary are the winners. Anyone who believes otherwise has been chasing Puff The Magic Dragon for far too long.

Re: US Election 2016
 

Will they actually give Trump the nomination though?!

Re: US Election 2016
 

Would be funny if he is forced to run as independent hmm...

Re: US Election 2016
 

No question he is in. Pretty much no possible alternative.

Re: US Election 2016
 

A democracy not allowing this would be in deep doo doo...


Oh wait, it is.

:doh:

Re: US Election 2016
 

They don't have a choice.

He only needs a mere 287 delegates.

There are 622 left.

He only needs about 47% of the vote to get that, and he's been vastly over-performing this threshold. Aside from that, these counts don't include "unbound" delegates, many of whom have publicly stated they intend to support the front-runner and/or the winner of their congressional district (both Trump).

The race is over. Kasich and Cruz formed a suicide pact with their stupid collusion agreement. It will go down in history as one of the most stupid mistakes in political history. I don't know what they were thinking....the only people who would be supportive of that were already going to vote for them anyways. Publicly stating that only proves the conspiracy theories that elections are rigged. I swear I think they must have had some drugs or something due to stress, because anyone with half a brain could have told them admitting collusion on television is not a good idea. :doh:

On the upside, you can make good money regardless of your political beliefs on PredictIt dot org.

Not plugging the site, don't own it. I do own a lot of Trump shares though, full disclosure. I won big last night on my prediction he would win over 50% in all 5 states. Bought it at 20 cents a share....let's just say that the celebratory cigars were on me last night. :cheer: :lol:

Re: US Election 2016
 

Not Cubans I hope!

Re: US Election 2016
 

Plus Cruz might lose another 34 delegates he already "won".

EXCLUSIVE: Colorado County GOP Chair: Errors with Ted Cruz's Delegate Win, Might Need Do-Over - Breitbart

Basically says there were many many mistakes in Colorado's Primary, where your vote literally means nothing (delegates decide 100%). They're strongly considering a do-over for the entire thing.

This entire election is an embarrassment to be honest. Regardless of how you feel about Trump, the fact is he has blown the lid off all the lies of elections and "democracy". It's all a big joke. It's kind of sad he had to run the outlandish campaign he has just to get these results, but it is what it is.

Regardless of how it ends, at least the American people now know the truth.

Re: US Election 2016
 

Until they forget

That is the problem with politics all around the world. Its all very circular with the same things happening, getting exposed, getting forgotten about, happening again, exposed again ect ect.

I will enjoying watching this US election. Who ever wins (and my money would be on Clinton by a large % at the moment, maybe that will change though?) it will be interesting.

Re: US Election 2016
 

Please do put your money where your mouth is. :)

I'm not being factious, I really would like you to buy Clinton shares so I can purchase more Trump for cheaper. =}

I've got auto-buys set-up already.

Re: US Election 2016
 

I love that we can discuss politics civilly. The membership of this forum really impresses me right now.

Re: US Election 2016
 

That can change so go with the flow.

The issue of Bill may preclude the wife getting the win.

Re: US Election 2016
 

Actually, odds are Trump will arrive at the convention 100-200 MORE than needed as it stands now.

I would bet huge money it is not at all contested and second of all.

Re: US Election 2016
 

Everyone hates Clinton.

I very much like the way this is going. I think we can turn this country around with a whole new Republican Party. Not nearly as conservative as I desire but a much more unified country with Fiscal responsibilities for OUR citizens.
