It's nice to live somewhere with such moral integrity.

31% is a pretty high figure when the question is effectively asking if we should continue a close relationship with the most powerful country in the western world.
 
Aye, although the question names 'Donald Trump', he represents the US now. Can't cut ties with the US for the sake of one retarded leader, thankfully they have 4 year elections.
 
Just a friendly reminder on what's happening when the squabbles over Lewis and Flynn controversies are going on.



The worst thing about this is the potential for exponential growth. The ice reflects a huge amount of UV rays back out of the atmosphere while the dark sea just absorbs them. It's a vicious cycle.
 


That is one, very limited way of looking at it.

1. State interests would presumably mean manufacturing interests - but many Canadian drugs imported to the US are made in the US. They are cheaper in Canada due to govt regulations. So manufacturing will not be significantly affected.

2. There are 2 categories in opensecrets.org - pharma/health products, and pharma manufacturing. (Don't ask me the difference). Clicking on pharma manufacturing reveals a very different story. It is also really disingenious to use all cycles to compare Booker with, for example, Obama. Obama has stood for senator once and president twice, raising HUGE money. Booker has stood for senator once. His total needs to be normalised for that.
Booker stood for senate in 2014. THe picture changes drastically when you look at that: https://www.opensecrets.org/industr...00&recipdetail=A&sortorder=U&mem=Y&cycle=2014
Top of the list in manufacturing, 2nd in pharma/health products in the cycle when he stood.
So, the whole non-correlation is built on misleading reporting.

3. This amendment was revenue neutral, it would not increase the deficit. It posed no safety risks since Candian and US FDA norms are similar (that is his current defence right now). It posed no significant threat to jobs since many Candian drugs are manufactured in the US. In fact, in the unlikely scenario where Canadian drugs not from the US began to drive US drugs out of the market, the US-manufactured versions would simply lower their price (like they do in Canada).
It shows a clear correlation between campaign contributions and votes - Dems in Washington, Dems in NJ, and the split between McConell and Rand Paul (both Republicans in Kentucky, McConell is top of all lists while Paul isn't in top 20 for any cycle).


tl;dr: Vox is a rag.
 
Still posting unfunny SNL skits and just open childish demeaning of a future President I see...:boring:
 
Trump will probably get 'round to demeaning us before long.

Why is the question of moral integrity only arising now? US and UK have actively and passively supported many a murderous dictators out of national interest. Not to mention, Blair pretty much entered UK into a war just to appease Bush.
 
Yep. If you're sleepy we can draw the curtains on this thread for you.
haha how ironic!
Lock up the person that has made no offence but simply doesn't agree with the majority - fair enough if that was said tongue-in-cheek.

This is exactly how Trumpy Germaphobe started.

Fair enough.
 
Remember when people had the pitchforks out for Dianne Feinstein a week or so back, after she didn't make a vote in the Senate? Turns out she had a pacemaker fitted last week, so it was probably health related.
 
He's probably scared shitless he'll get publicly heckled.

The guy is such a shitbag (aside from acting like a keyboard warrior on Twitter). I can just imagine the anger that he would rightfully get directed at him, if he dared to enter the museum after what he said yesterday.
