It’s funny when people say the US is a “capitalist” country; yet we have a federal-run Social Security program and corporate welfare, amongst other welfare programs.
The same people who are against “evil” socialism have no issues with receiving Medicare benefits - another government program. grin

Democratic-socialism is all about ensuring that workers, who are the engine of the economy are treated fairly. Also, DS comes along with a healthcare system that ensures that folks wouldn’t be bankrupted by astronomical medical bills. Yes, Medicare-For-All is a desirable program which would be of benefit to everyone.

Rep. Matt Gaetz, the guy who stormed the SCIF of Congress and recorded the deliberations in the facility (a violation of the law), is now calling for an investigation into Pelosi’s tearing of the SOTU speech.

With the Iowa caucus concluded, realistically which of the candidates do you think stands a chance against Trump?

Did you watch CNN yesterday, they were almost all in panic mode that no one stands a chance against Trump

The top 3 were Mayor Pete, Sanders and Warren, Do you realistically think they will win any states outside the regular blue coastal states

Biden is going broke and was begging donors on the conference calls yesterday to still hang tight with him
The one candidate with a realist chance to defeat Trump is Bernie Sanders (or Tulsi Gabbard).

Yes, people say he is uber socialist, but his Midwestern bonafides will give Trump a run for his money in the key swing states of the Rust-belt. Sanders has a greater connection with the blue-collar/middle class voter in those Rust-belt states than any establishment Dem in the field.

For the first time since 2005, more than 50% of Americans view the Republican Party favorably. That’s according to Gallup.

A biennial Confederations Cup for women won't be a bad idea. FIFA could invite 16 nations to participate in the tournament, which would be popular among fans.

According to Gallup, Trump's approval rating has gone up to 49%, while 50% disapprove of him. shocked shocked
94% of Republicans approve of Trump as well.
https://news.gallup.com/poll/284156/trump-job-approval-personal-best.aspx

Bear in mind that this poll took place between Jan 16 -29, so the whole impeachment trial didn't make a dent on his rating. And the result tells us that the Democratic party shouldn't think the election will be a walkover.

Truly, the Democrats messed up with organizing the Iowa caucuses. However, let’s not forget that the GOP have a recent history of suppressing voter turnout; particularly targeting young voters, and voters of color.

What about other players? I guess their own should be around 500k per week gross income too, idiat
Lol. Calm down. It’s unlikely Ighalo would accept anything lower than £100k after taxes, or else he may sue Utd for breach of contract.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by PDPGuy: 1:31am On Feb 01, 2020
Fun fact: Ighalo will become the 2nd-joint highest paid player ever in the EPL.
Yaya Toure’s £150k/week deal with Man City is the highest for an African player, in the EPL, to date.

Yes but we are only paying 100k while his club pays the rest
And the 100k should be his income after tax. Man Utd should be paying him slightly over £181,000/week as gross income.

I see the reason Busola Dakolo is mad. Timi can't give her the kind of life Fatoyinbo is giving his wife. In her deepest mind she would be wishing she was the one cleebrating 20yrs with Fatoyinbo.
So, are you saying Busola only raised her rape issue because she made a 'mistake' in marrying Timi?

ChimaAgbalajob:
The Minister and the FAAN boss Capt. Rabiu Yadudu are no longer speaking of the runway elongation from 3KM to 3.5KM to accomodate landing of a Boeing 747 jumbo jet etc, that they gave as reason for inevitable closure for a long period.

So let me ask, did they close the airport for almost 6 months now just to resurface the runway and install Instrument Landing System (ILS) & (DME) at Enugu Airport ?---- and this is what N8.5 Billion naira would be used for?
Well, as of three weeks ago, the consultant to both FAAN and the Transport ministry says the runway will be able to hold a 747-400 plane. So, it's still likely that the runway would be extended to a minimum of 3.4km.

However, I don't think the airport should have been closed for 8 months just to resurface/reconstruct the runway, install runway lighting, ILS, and DME. At very least, the project could have taken no more than 2-3 months to complete. But in Nigeria, the government and contractors love working at a leisurely pace which is soo annoying.

Mark the date, Saturday April 11th, 2020 when Liverpool host Aston Villa; cos that’s when Liverpool will set a new PL record of consecutive matches without defeat.
