@ Frown - She's good on drugs.

I'm just hoping my man Tom Woods decides to pull his finger out and run for the Libertarian candidacy.

Jesus, are there any politicians who can honestly say that they're don't support the military industrial complex?

My man Tom Woods wouldn't. He's actually a very good introduction to Libertarian/Anarchist views if you're interested.

I often wonder how those types of figures would hold up if their opinions have an accountability tied to them through their position. That's not a knock on his philosophy or anything, I haven't read up on him at all except to see if he had experience.

F. Ex there are many Democrats who decry our bloated military while they're giving an under-the-table handy to the industry that perpetuates the complex because willfully cutting factory jobs is risky political move.

And here I thought I was the only one who ever thought of that, because that's how you define a risky move in the political sense: obscurity.

@Chula Vista,Trevor Noah is awesome. Chris Murphy For President 2020?
@Goofle,Never heard of Tom Woods. I think Zuckerburg 2020?
@Frownland, damn you going after Chris Murphy hard. Deep thoughts to ponder.

It's a criticism of Murphy, yes, but it's more of a criticism of our political system on the whole because feeding the war machine is ubiquitous among American politicians on both sides.

Murphy seems about as terrible as I would expect.
