I don't like the job Bourne has done, which is startling since he was good on the school board.

But saying Morrissey over him?!

nope. The Trump who wants to destroy the constitution and our democracy and rule of law.

He wants to destroy some aspects. You want to destroy other aspects. I actually give you the benefit of the doubt and I don't think you realize what you are proposing.

Corporations are just people. Groups of people. Your proposal boils down to overturning property rights, which is a big change in our society, and would quite literally require pitching a big chunk of the constitution

yes. These are all just tags we hang on human behavior.

or education or not sounding like an idiot clearly

Please read a book

Mike Duncan's History podcasts are pretty good

oh man that sucks. I'm sorry

Capitalism is just a fancy name for humans being humans. And humans always have a tendency to be humans

No it's Alexandria you're right

So what you are saying is renters should pay more? Because basically all tenants are in investment units and if investment units are charged more than tenants will have to pay more

Okay putting my lawyer hat on this makes so little sense I cannot even parse it

This would require the complete conversion of the US to a communist society to work I'm not actually kidding. You have to destroy most American laws it makes the Trump take on things look minor

You might not realize how trumpian this is

From what I know I'd be pretty happy to vote for John Baliles

I think all of my law professors and half of my college professors would start crying if they read this point. It's really remarkably uneducated

if the city doesn't want to tax people out of their homes they could maybe stop taxing people out of their homes? Given the city is doing it, not the state?

That's ridiculous

Technically only 2 weeks

Truth

There can be only one

Turns out that one is Short pump

I thought that was a temporary thing during covid?

No you cannot but if you own a business you can get qualified

oh god no. Though you would love my focus, it would be all sewers roads and street cleaning.

I just want to see someone who is obsessed with that. And cutting the grass. And fixing the bureaucracy

you get some weirdness, like the firehouse caucus bit. But it would be really rich and heavy handed to not have a primary for this.

But I think it's up to the democrats to decide

I agree, I like the new map generally, especially compared to what came before. I voted for the constitutional amendment proudly. This district was drawn for a black democrat for all sorts of reasons, that doesn't necessarily mean gerrymandered. It's much better than the last one

I really don't get why people are downvoting you. It's not like you are endorsing Stoney... you are just making a prediction, and it's probably accurate.

Sometimes I'm amazed at the stupidity on here. Though I shouldn't be.

I have known McClellan for almost 30 years, and don't have any idea what you are talking about. Are you saying she's a political incompetent? She isn't. Nor is thinking about one's future in politics scheming.

But to say she is incompetent at scheming is utterly unfair. She's a smart woman. What sort of insane view of politics do you hold?

it was definitely drawn to make sure a black democrat would win it. But it's better than it used to be if you look

it's going to be fascinating. And scary. But I think this is Stoney's best shot. No ramp up and he actually has a lot of democratic party support which helps in a low turn out special.

I bet he runs. Not a strong bet, but it seems like he can shoot his shot without resigning even.

In which case, who will be running for mayor?
