Power to the People Plan - Jill Stein Platform

?My Power to the People Plan creates deep system change, moving from the greed and exploitation of corporate capitalism to a human-centered economy that puts people, planet and peace over profit.

It offers direct answers to the economic, social, and ecological crises brought on by both corporate political parties. And it empowers the American people to fix our broken political system and make real the promise of democracy.

This plan will end unemployment and poverty; avert climate catastrophe; build a sustainable, just economy; and recognize the dignity and human rights of everyone in our society and our world. The power to create this new world is not in our hopes, it?s not in our dreams - it?s in our hands.?

Dude, please. I travelled across France like 15 times, having lived in Europe. Same for Belgium. My point, which you seem to fail to grasp, is that Paris, Brussels and Berlin now have Muslim slums, no-go zones, so I don't care to travel there anymore.

If you have spent times there, you would know that this is not new, far from it...
Comparing it to the Middle East shows that you don't know much about either regions...

Hopefully, most of the people don't think like you as France is the most visited country in the world (for tourism...)...

Yeah, Paris hotel occupancy is down 40%... or is it 60%? One more bloodshed and it will be down 80%...

Reservations are down 20% YoY in Paris and Nice, so no it is not 60%, it is not even 40%...

It will recover as it has in the past.
This is not the first time there are terror attacks in France. They were quite frequent in the 80s as well. The country will recover...

Video of her fainting seems to be easy to find - she has kept a very tough speaking schedule - I think it is much ado about nothing. She has walking pneumonia.

Though liberals do a great deal of talking about hearing other points of view, it sometimes shocks them to learn that there are other points of view

They know full well there are other points of view. They deliberately avoid discussing their merits by smearing them with nasty labels, aka racist, bigot, xenophobe, sexist, etc.

Interesting update:

Target's Transgender-Friendly Bathroon Policy Is Costing It $20 Million

CFO admits some customers were peeved over bathroom policy.

Target TGT -6.43% is spending millions to add private single-stall locking bathrooms at many of its stores as it looks to reverse a drop in shopper traffic, some of which may have been caused by the retailer?s transgender-friendly bathroom policy.

Target stock tanks, and they are adding single-stall bathrooms for trans people. Coincidence? I think not. What a bunch of morons. The single-stall solution was obvious from the beginning.

PS - love it when liberals' cockamamie ideas hit them on the pocket. Too bad that more often they hit all of us on the pocket, like obamacare.

I'll reply to both of these at the same time because they are guilty of the same... oversimplistic thinking for oversimplistic people.

Anyone that's an investor can understand this. I know JCMan8 doesn't make enough money for stocks due to all those minorities taking the good jobs that his meager education qualifies him for, but seriously the stock didn't drop because of a bathroom policy. Their stock dropped because of multiple reasons with the primary being a drop in retail altogether.

Oil has begun to pick back up into a bullish sense. This drives delivery prices hire. Additionally, retail overall has a dip in income. These are the summer months when people go on vacation. Retail will report more positive earnings in the next quarter due to back-to-school sales. However, Amazon has somewhat decimated this market a bit as well.

Target didn't do itself any favors by undergoing construction projects on its stores. These construction projects aren't simple wall builds but costly bathroom renovations.

To blame it simply on "transgender bathroom policy has caused the stock to plummet" demonstrates pure stupidity or an attempt to intentionally dishonest. Pick whichever applies to you. Those of us that actually invest in stocks prefer to understand the bigger picture.

I'm running short on adjectives to describe this monstrosity, but I'm most infuriated by the huge (120 foot?) advertising screen in the tunnel to Brookfield Place. The PA is clearly selling every inch of the place. What's next, the Yahoo 9/11 Museum, brought to you by Footlocker?

MikeyTBC is right on the money. 100 miles "flat" isn't really that big a deal, this would be your NYC Century Ride. However, once you start looking at, say, 8000+ ft elevation gain, it's a different animal completely. My guess is that there are very few organized events that would bother hosting a flat century since it would be boring and not much of a challenge.

She did lose it. Said something about emigrating to New Zealand if Donald wins. I guess Canada is too cold for her. I won't miss her.

Funny that these liberals who always threaten to move inevitably choose very white countries.

You never see them threaten to move to Mexico, anywhere in South America or Africa or Asia or the Middle East. Curious case.

Couldn't move to France like the old days ... to much anti-Semitism in Europe!
