    Are today's kids entitled?

    https://www.foxnews.com/opinion/part-gen-x-maybe-reason-crazy-college-protests I agree up to a point. However, not all values espoused by Fox News I agree with, and Israel comes across as bullies.

    Elon Musk Smartest Man Alive

    He has autism. A lot of autistic people are geniuses.

    Do you people still discipline your children by rods?

    Parents who can't discipline kids the old-fashioned way might see them yelling at them and smarting off to them (sarcasm) too much. Myself, I don't remember ever being spanked but I wasn't a bad kid. However, a lot of kids are very rough for whatever reason and all they understand is...

    Was Jesus white?

    I don't think it matters who he was, but saying he isn't white goes into this oversensitive WOKE stuff these days, even if that's true.

    Once Saved Always Saved?

    View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aFQZZuJgMGs It seems like the Bible doesn't teach it. It's actually more than "seems". Do you agree?

    The Ethics of Things We Highly Regret

    https://www.fox4news.com/news/fort-worth-aleah-wallace-no-billed This woman shot a 14-year-old, but she didn't know he was 14. Anyway, she is obviously sad over the incident. It's a real tragedy. It's kind of like when armies bomb people with human shields inside.

    Untouchable Protected Groups

    Some groups are labeled untouchable by the left, but some are by the right. Anyhow, though, shielding people from objective criticism isn't good. Do you agree or not?

    Are veterans untouchable in politics?

    I respect the services veterans did, even my dad was a veteran, among many relatives also. However, though, it is true some of them can be quite obnoxious and they probably think they got a green light to abuse people, because they are untouchable veterans.

    Should Tik-Tok be banned in the US?

    https://www.businessinsider.com/tiktok-ban-house-vote-results-uncertain-in-the-senate-2024-3 I'm not sure if banning it would do any good anyhow. If we are assuming some tyrannical Chinese government is behind Tik-Tok, they can just work thru an American company. Wouldn't you think so?

    How safe is fast food?

    View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ammdFmtzro I ran into this by accident. It's very interesting. Do you feel the restaurant should be sued? I think so and this is a real victim in this age of victimization, I think.

    One Take on Left-Wing Policies in the US

    It could be that they do work, but they aren't done right. For instance, UBI programs can vastly help, yet, at the same time, being soft on shoplifters doesn't work. You get what I'm saying?

    Do UBI programs work?

    https://www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news/how-king-countys-500-a-month-guaranteed-income-program-fared/ What are some pros and cons of it? Do you have it in your area? Do you think it should come to your area?

    Are veterans untouchable in politics?

    On one thread, someone noted I was misunderstanding Trump when he was calling soldiers who lost as losers and suckers. He was saying politicians start wars and then shame anyone who attacks veterans as being unpatriotic, unmanly etc.. Of course, the goal of this is to cut down on criticism of...

    Do we know everything about Trump?

    So, you're saying it's a misunderstanding of language? What point is Trump driving at here? It sounds like he's being a disrespectful *******. Anyway, how would saying soldiers are losers cause they came in 2nd place, as in they got captured or killed play into this? Is Trump implying...

    Do we know everything about Trump?

    https://www.snopes.com/news/2023/10/04/donald-trump-call-troops-suckers-losers/ This is quite disturbing. It's ignored by Trump fans. I suppose they think it's a lie. Do you think this story is true and how about other ones?

    Rise in homeless people

    In this small town I was at, there was around 100 homeless, even for a small town. Anyway, the reason for most it was probably the fact that a criminal conviction keeps you from housing and a job. How might that be changed?

    The inflation

    As many know, the minimum wage has been risen to $20 in California and many places all over the country are trying to approach that wage. Nonetheless, though, once it gets to $20, the effect is that people get fired, so what good is it anyway?

    Has the musician lifestyle gotten soft?

    Is it a requirement that things gotta be rough? Why or why not? Is this photo misleading?

    Is the lesser of two evils, still evil?

    Well, sometimes a choice has to be made. For instance, if a government has a terrible ideology, but it's less evil (according to the viewer), than the other, than do you side with them? How can you not side with one or the other when trade and other things are in the balance?
