POLITICAL THREAD

[WayneDougan]

Office appropriate clothing doesn’t always mean a suit. I don’t wear a suit to work, but abide by the policies for office dress they have in place. I also show up on time and leave when I’m supposed to. I also use language proper for a workplace environment that has a very diverse group of peers all with differing viewpoints. In other words, I refrain from discussing politics, and using foul language. It’s called being respectful and professional. It’s a sorry state if that’s lost on Gen Z. It’s why they are dragging us down into the toilet as a country. I get my work done and even have time off and on during the day to get on here and catch up with you people.

I work with a lot of Gen Z. For the most part they all wear work appropriate clothes, are on-time, and don't curse at work.

And that's even after we trained them to "be their authentic self" (worst advice ever) and that being on-time is white supremacy. So I'm actually impressed with how solid they are!

 

[vhcat70]

I can answer that. Enough to provide schools that don't have buckets in the hall catching rain, pays bus drivers/subs/teachers enough so that classes aren't being covered by janitors or non certified staff, and teachers don't have to pay for their own copy paper.
That's a start.

Give us a number. That those conditions exist doesn't mean there isn't enough money vs. what's there being mispent.

Oh yeah, you just said you were done.

Your garden variety leftist female.

Sixty-two percent of Whites who classify themselves as “very liberal” or “liberal” have been told by a doctor they have a mental health condition, as compared to 26% of conservatives and 20% of moderates, the study found.

Young White people who identified as “very liberal” were almost one and a half times more likely to report mental health problems than those who considered themselves “liberal.”

White liberals more likely to have a mental health condition

White liberals are more prone to mental health disorders than individuals who identify as conservative or moderates, according to a Pew Research Center survey.

[AustinTXCat]

How about you try listening?

"Leaders say they have struggled with the latest generation's tangible challenges, including being late to work and meetings often, not wearing office-appropriate clothing, and using language appropriate for the workspace."

"Tangible challenges" like cursing and not wearing a suit. Seriously? Just boomers being fools, exactly as stereotyped. Quit being shitty to people.

I knew you'd enjoy my post, Señor.

Thanks.

Man....sowell is so great. Hes spot on and thats been in front of us all along but only he saw it. Incredibly sharp even at his age. By any standards, he should be immensely celebrated by the left who claim to champion minorities. Its a shame.

Told my wife the same thing just minutes ago. Libs especially don't care. They want this country beaten and changed. Unfortunately, they don't realize that they are cutting their own throats along with the rest of us.

They know. They just think by doing China's bidding they'll be basically the governors of this land once the keys are handed over to china. Literal traitors trying to sabotage their great nation for the personal gain of their few elite friends.

I am very much a Christian. But I am also an American. Also, not stupid. Quote? I suggest you try real hard to read.

No. You’re definitely NOT a Christian. You lack even the most basic level of discernment that every Christian should have. You adopt a secular worldview. You believe politics is the only way to save this nation. You do not understand the spiritual forces at work in this world. You do not care for the unborn. You mock Christians for sharing the gospel in the same way that heathens mock Christians for sharing the gospel. You may believe you are a Christian, but you are definitely not.

2 Timothy 3:5 -

This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.

2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,

3 Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good,

4 Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;

5 Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.

That’s you in verses 3 and 5.

 

[AshWilliams]

Your short sighted and naive view of what is real may soon cause you to lose your religious freedom. Don't you understand that with Dion in charge there will no longer be church. You will be sent off to reeducation camps. I am not willing to die on your abortion hill.

Wow, what a FASCINATING and IGNORANT post.

You just demonstrated that you have ZERO knowledge of Christianity and the Bible.

Did the early Christians have religious freedom? No, they did not. And yet, Christianity grew. It exploded. The early church was persecuted. Christians were burned alive, tortured, and fed to lions. And yet it grew.

The prophet Daniel didn't have religious freedom - he was a slave. And yet he was used by God to shape nations. There are numerous examples throughout the Bible - including the Israelites - where God's children did not have religious freedom. It's the norm rather than the exception throughout history. There is no religious freedom in China right now, and yet the church, underground, is thriving.

I've got some news for ya, skippy: God is far more interested in your attitude toward Him than he is about your personal comfort, wealth, and freedom. And He may very well allow our freedoms to go away if it means we will draw closer to Him. America has been the exception throughout history when it comes to religious freedom, and it looks like that's coming to an end. You think the GOP is going to save you? LOL! The Prince of the Power of the Air is in charge. You might want to look that up.

Christians are not guaranteed religious freedom, nor is it required to have religious freedom in order to worship God. In fact, it's likely that we WILL lose our religious freedom in this country. And frankly, I'm surprised it hasn't happened already. Christians today are disobedient to God, and this is one of the reasons God is angry with us. So we're right back to where I started. Get right with God. Stop focusing on this world and get your focus back on God. Do your civic duty; Vote, etc. But remember who's in charge. And remember that this world is not all there is.

I'm not surprised you don't know any of this. It's obvious you and Jesus have never met. You know ABOUT God. But you don't know Him personally. You are more focused on your own personal self than you are the things of God. That will be your downfall, not my personal faith.

The debt crisis is probably worse than you think. I was reading an interesting article online about it, and a few things stood out. Keep in mind, I'm not an economist so...

Currently, our debt, after you subtract the amount the government owes itself, IOW privately held debt, as a percentage of the GDP (which is essentially all that matters) stands at a little over 100 percent. Economists project that the point at which the US debt becomes unsustainable, and no amount of taxes, budget cuts etc. will prevent us from defaulting is around 200 percent, and that is BEST case scenario. The more realistic figure (because home savings are so dismal here) is around 175 percent. At current spending levels, we'll hit that in about 20 years.

There is MORE bad news. Unless the US Government passes a legitimate closure rule that 175 percent threshold is probably much lower. IOW we could start defaulting in possibly 10 years or less.

Sounds about right. The US goes down not with World War Three, but with an economic and moral-crisis whimper.

Implosion from within as opposed to explosion from afar. The true core issue: our godlessness.

If God is the same yesterday, today, and forever, we need to be mindful that He's probably pretty pissed off at how arrogant we've become.

The disciplinary hand of God is already here. He's about to squeeze the nipple harder.

The ironic thing is that after 50 years of murdering unborn children by the tens of millions, some people somehow believe that God isn't angry about that, and that we should just let that go.

Matthew 18:2-6

And Jesus called a little child unto him, and set him in the midst of them,

3 And said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven.

4 Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is greatest in the kingdom of heaven.

5 And whoso shall receive one such little child in my name receiveth me.

6 But whoso shall offend one of these little ones which believe in me, it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and that he were drowned in the depth of the sea.

"My body, my choice" sounds a lot like Lucifer's infantile rant, "I will ascend above the mountain of the most high!"
Just like Christ said, our natural, pre-Christ person is allied with our OG father, the Devil.

"You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out your father's desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, not holding to the truth, for there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies." - John 8:44

George H.W. Bush (R): 2.25%

Bill Clinton (D): 3.88%

George W. Bush (R): 2.2%

Barack Obama (D): 1.62%

Donald Trump (R): 0.95%

How GDP Growth Under Trump Compares To Clinton, Obama And Other Presidents

With the presidential election less than a week away, Americans are weighing the two presidential candidates and choosing which is best for the country over the next four years --if they haven't already voted.One way they can do that is by looking back on the first term of President Donald Trump...

You are indeed a good trained seal. Now clap.

I prefer to call it a responsible, upstanding human being with values who has a level of personal responsibility. Some people actually enjoy their jobs and the people they work for and with. I'd hate to see how much disrespect you show your bosses and supervisors. Do you wear a uniform to work pulverizing coal? Do your bosses know what you think of them?

No matter what your opinion's are and no matter what level of Commie/Marxist/Socialism you favor, work is still required to keep our massive infrastructure running and operating. And all of those jobs will still have someone in charge. Sorry you think people should just be allowed to act like dicks at work and be disruptive to the work environment.

Let’s not forget the fake Bibles he’s selling where he’s altering the Word of God and slapping his name on the cover. You know he doesn’t believe abortion should be banned right? Just curious, you’re basically saying none of us have a relationship with God and you’re spouting off crap about abortion over and over.
