Please recall that the CIA and like organizations have been doing this for about 70 years. It's how they get their budgets increased. Their massive black budgets that we are not allowed to know about.

Recommend "Legacy of Ashes" by Weiner. The CIA hates this book, and used to specifically attack it on their website. The absolute best possible endorsement, in my opinion.

No matter how bad you think it is, it's worse.

We all know this, but I am surprised that he actually admits it publicly.

But... perhaps there's no point in manipulating the public. It's not as if there's a viable alternative.

Meanwhile, he has the very best healthcare on Earth, all thanks to US taxpayers.

This is just one more reason why our major parties continue to lose voters every year. Rs are now 30%, Ds are now 30%, and Independents are up to 40% (many polls, pick your favorite).

If public anything is socialist, then every nation on Earth has always been and is socialist.

I think that's a little too broad of a definition, but I'm not a political scientist.

p.s. NYC always stank like garbage and urine in summer, nice to see some progress. Maybe weld a urinal onto the new garbage bins?

I have to see a doctor twice a year to keep my medications; my mom has to go once every few months.

This makes them a gigantic amount of money. Thanks drug war.

For the first 150 years or so in the USA, you bought what you wanted over-the-counter, from aspirin to cocaine. Some people abused it, most did not... but then, only the drug maker makes money, not the clinic, hospital, doctors, nurses, staff, etc.

p.s. my very old mom at the end of her life has to pee in a jar a few times a year to prove that she isn't abusing any drugs so that she can continue to get her drugs.

He's in touch with the financiers of the Democrat party... who just happen to also finance the Republican party.

It's the circle of banks that definitely aren't a cabal that control The FED. (please feel free to look at who is "appointed" to the fed; they work at banks and financial institutions before and after their term but they are looking out for us don't worry they surely aren't using this power to rob Americans with inflation)

Like the drug laws, dress code laws, and so on, another one of the legion of bullshit laws used to harass citizens. Just one more reason to "check ID", which leads to many more "crimes" to get the charged into the court system and squeeze even more money from them. They want to get you on parole or into the prison system bad.

Think of it as another tax, like interest rates.

A lot of businesses already deny any bathroom access in the USA, even to paying customers; they don't care. This law will decrease public bathroom access for all unless UK government already dictates public access to business bathrooms.

I am often called a centrist... I hold views the left and the right both despise, I agree with one here and the other there. In USA we are officially "independents" and are the majority of voters (40% independents, 30% Democrat ("left"), 30% Republican.

"independents" also include all other political parties (Greens, Libertarians, Socialists, et al), which are more active locally than federally.
