I've run for office, and yeah, the running is a job all on its own. That and everything takes money.
Campaign signs don't print themselves, canvassers need to be paid, handbills need printers, venues need to be booked, offices need to be rented and all of it, all of it takes money that the majority of candidates simply don't have on their own.
Once you experience that you realize why a lot of politicians become corrupt, or at least corrupted by the system.
The glasses she refers to and are wearing are the context of his comment. That's pretty easy to understand if you aren't obsessed with standards of physical beauty.
Same here. We Canadians partied right alongside you in 1976. It was awesome. I looked forward to the blast that America at 250 would be. What a sad waste of potential the US has become.
I work returns in a Costco. In fact, I'm typing this on my phone in the little office we have in receiving.
Food either gets sold or gets pulled for various reasons. Pulled food goes first to the local food banks. What can't go to them goes to a farm, a local pet rescue group, and to a wildlife rescue and rehabilitation group.
Anything left over from all that goes into a bin to be turned into high grade compost, which gets sold for $5 for a 20lb bag.
It takes time and money to do this, and it gets done anyway because the will is there.
Then why do I only ever see (R) or (D) behind names in your government? Why don't I hear about the Green party candidate for Senate, or the Libertarian in a state legislature? I mean, you say there are other parties, but if they exist surely someone from one of them has made it into the government of a state or to the federal level at some point.
Not trying to be argumentative here, just trying to understand.
Well damn. I'll look into this further later today when I'm not at work, but I honestly believed that liberals were center left with Tory conservatives being center right.
If you have any links to informative articles I'd appreciate them. Never too old to learn things.
Aren't liberals left wing? As in, to the left of the political center? In Canada our Liberal government is considered to be center left. Just how much is debatable, but left.
Let me put this in a way you can understand:
Death to Putin.
Death to his generals, his officials, his administrators, and his bureaucrats.
Death to every member of the Russian military on Ukrainian soil.
Russia will never know peace until it leaves Ukraine in peace, for even if Russia were to conquer the land, still would the people fight on.

One thing that helps are the 3k bonus cheques you get every 6 months once you pass the 12,000 hours worked mark.

Americans have unironically quoted the Beaverton in the past, thinking it was an actual news outlet

Life is Feudal. It had the potential to be something great, but ended dying in a hail of bad server coding and poorly implemented monetization.
Every so often I will reinstall it, find one of the free servers and just chill for hours on end.
CBC BBC Reuters...
And it's not just them, but those tend to be my primary y news sources.
Diversion aside, can you name any examples of non Democrat or Republican legislators at the state or federal level?

I'm not an American, so I could be incredibly wrong here, but don't you have a two party system? If you don't vote Democrat, who do you vote for?
