Flag burning ban!

[PoppaJ]

If I burn a Made In China flag do I still lose citizenship? What about burning an American flag paper plate or napkin in the campfire? Burning the flag is one of the proper ways of disposing of a retired flag. Will that now become grounds for loss of citizenship? What about the Russian flag? So many questions.

Like Trumps tiny hands grabbing a p***y, you just can't resist.

Are these flags also protected?

the entire economy has been propped up by the Fed since '08...The Fed has reinflated the stock market, and to a lesser extent the housing market. The labor force participation rate is horrible.View attachment 63713 The participation rate is mainly due to discouraged workers dropping out. I'm looking for an uptick in the participation rate now that we have a pro business President. If the velocity of money increases by allowing the large banks to lend and change their business model from stealing through fees, every metric will turn in the right direction. Obama never showed much leadership in this area.Hillary ignored the issue, and the Rust Belt kicked her in the ass. Dodd-Frank can go in the can with Obamacare, and the result will be an upturn.

QE stopped years ago. Besides growth and good market indicators corporate buybacks have been the prime mover of the markets along with manic speculaton for the entire past 8 years since March 2009. Corporates are now pouring 102% of their earnings plus vast amounts of borrowed money into stock buybacks and were putting in around 95% of their corporate earnings into dividends and stock buybacks for the entire time period since March 2009.


So you think deregulation of Wall Street is a good thing?


70 million of those NOT in the labor force are retired, students, or disabled.

Part time jobs are about 5% of total jobs….close to the long term average.

Discouraged workers (U6) are down from 14.2% when Bush left office to 9.3% now.

Unemployment is down from 7.8% when Bush left office to 4.6% now.

To match Obama’s record, Trump has to get unemployment down to 1.7% and U6 down to 4.4%.

Anyone think he’s gonna do that?

People who are not in the labor force&#58 why aren't they working? : Beyond the Numbers: U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics



The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau part of the Dodd- Frank Wall Street Reform bill allowed consumers who have been victims of corporate scams to get billions in restitution that they would not have been able to otherwise. That’s a bad thing? The ACA? How has it killed jobs? What is your solution to insure the nation? Pray you don’t get sick and if you do die? Both are not perfect but a good start.

Once again Lars, the ban Hillary advocated was to ban flag burning as a method of intimidation like burning a cross not as a method of free speech or political protest. Big difference from incarceration and stripping ones citizenship for exercising your rights to free speech.

Besides, so what if Hillary wanted to criminalize flag burning? How is that relevant? Unlike conservsatives, we don't march in Naziesque lock step with our cult leader.

So the p***y grabbing man with the golden toilet seat and his shell game have made the citizens of Indiana who voted for him bend over and take it in the @#$ while Carrier gets their money and sends another 1300 more jobs out of the country. Since most manufacturing jobs are lost due to automation and the technology carrier is using is over 50 years old would it not have been better to retrain and educate the workers? Just wonder going forward if Don the Con is going to punish all these companies who threaten to leave with millions in taxpayer dollars and billions in government contracts. That’s sure going to learn em. Corporate welfare? I’ll give credit where credit is due though I don't think any president elect in history settled a suit for fraud and racketeering faster than Trump did. And only 73 more lawsuits to go!

Where credit is really due 178,000 jobs created in November unemployment down to 4.6%. Thanks Obama!!

Burning the American flag is one of the most inflammatory and stupid measures a citizen can freely take. It's the realm of self absorbed cowards. It's like shouting the N word in Harlem. Better to self immolate if you are that torqued.

Trump's policies are not entirely conservative, and you know it. The move with Carrier would never happen under a mainstream Republican. Mainstream Repubs were routed despite all their efforts to mute Orange Julious, and mainstream Dems pissed off the working class, and millenials with the "superdelegate" scam, and a tone deaf attitude toward those tossed to the curb. What an incredible renunciation of both parties! Keep up the Nazi characterizations. Every time you use it, it dilutes it's effect. It's like shouting "racist","bigot","psychopath" et al. Try talking about ideas. Stop talking about personalities. It's not easy to do.
