Before I read about the Lavender Scare, I didn't realize that Washington was a growing gay hub in the 40s/50s due to the expanded bureaucracy post New Deal. Also, that the anti-gay policies spread to universities and the private sector, which seemed to become the norm after that. Eventually, universities and the private sector cared more about sexual orientation than if you were previously a member of the Communist party. History is important and relevant.

This is just 1 amendment, though. They break 3 every time they disappear a US resident for dissidence.

Unfortunately the people he is trying to convince are too stupid to think critically or even think logically about the root cause of the issue. He can mask his own incompetence through personal attacks and the idiotic brain-washed base will eat it up, one clip at a time.

I wanted to follow-up and say that I got some Marmite, Coleman's mustard and a box of Yorkshire pudding mix. I'm excited to try the marmite in recipes. I tried it on a cracker and it tastes like this "better than bouillon" broth-making concentrate. I don't think I'll be eating it plain on toast anytime soon, but it's very salty and umami.

But the problem is the rich have managed their own taxation for 50 years. They've decided through exercising power on the government that they will pay less and less. As they do so, working class conditions worsen. This has been accelerated through multiple bills and decisions implemented by the rich. The most destructive one recently was the citizens United decision.

Tell me, if it's so easy to just take all your money to Monaco, why would the wealthiest in our country spend so much money and effort to war against the working class for the past 50 years?

Why not just go to Monaco instead of cutting the taxes on rich and corporations again (to still be higher than Monaco)

I'll add - dumped Amazon a bit ago and wish I'd done it sooner. Finding lots of other online stores and getting more quality products. Haven't shopped at Walmart in decades. Trying to walk the walk more and it's improving my qol.

Thanks! Super cool. I've never had marmite, but I'm gonna snag some and try this.

I always liked the analogy of chickens voting for Colonel Sanders, but you were getting there.

Can you give me some examples of dishes you'd add it to? I'm intrigued. Like a pho, ramen or soup?

Sauce? I thought not.

I get a lot of folks are busy, working two jobs, dealing with childcare and healthcare and whatnot, but how deep do you have to bury your head in the sand to be so unaware or disconnected from an American Presidential election? It's unfathomable to me.
