The labor participation rate dropping has been predicted for decades due to the baby boomer generation retiring and also Obamacare allowing people to chose not work since they can now afford healthcare without relying on a job or their employer. Oh, and Jefferson never said or wrote that, joke's on you. Turn off Fox News.

I think after last night's debate, this is Rubio.

Socialism hasn't worked anywhere else? Have you heard of Europe, Scandinavia, Denmark? Everybody in these countries has health care, for their entire lives, and college provided for every citizen. Denmark, by the way, has the happiest people in the world. No poverty, no drug and crime problems, no military industrial complex sucking the life-blood out of it's economy. No two year long election process that wastes billions of dollars on pure political propaganda... I just love a good rant. Peace.

Scandanavia...blah..blah..blah. Denmark has a population of 5.5 million in their little utopia and 90% are of Danish decent, i.e. white.

Socialism doesn't work in industrial countries and don't give me France, they are Greece with fancy accents.

I merely quoted a Forbes article that polled the ten most happy countries. They were all socialist countries. Are you happy? Are you certain about your health care for the rest of your life? Are you certain your children and grand children will be able to go to college? I guess it's just a coincidence that these countries are happy. Right?

We could have the Republican wet dream form of government, an oligarchy run by plutocrats. Historically how well has that worked out for citizens?

The question is would Socialism work here...no. Socialism works if you have a dominant middle class and we don't. I do not doubt for a second that Socialism isn't the answer, we have too many ultra wealthy, too many ultra poor and the "middle" class is like the strata in rock. Too many special interests, so when the idea of Socialism is brought up, it is looked at as Communism.

Why is Socialism successful in really cold places with blond haired blue eyed people?

Because they have to survive on their intellect.

Yesterday in NH Rubio got stuck on auto repeat again. I don't have the link at the moment but find it and watch how he pauses when he suddenly realizes what he has done. This scripted idiot simply can not think and speak at the same time.

Trump, Cruz, Rubio, Carson, Jeb!, and Christie are having a negative effect on the creative process of American comedy writing. Having a nomination process writing it's own jokes does not bode well for the future of this industry.
