Why do progs always favor equality of outcome even if it stifles innovation?
The principles of net neutrality existed before the 2015 Obama rules. If we now say Net Neutrality is garbage and the highest bidder deserves faster lanes, then I'm not sure NetFlix could have ever existed under those conditions.

I have been stopping by my (new) neighbors, he has a 8 years old Boxer. What a cool dog! I never seen one before. She looks so sad all the time, and was like 'ah oh' here comes that little Jack Russel who wants to play. But now she looks forward to us walking down the street and then doesn't want us to leave, I have even watched her 2 times now when my neighbor had to be away for the day. What a strong dog! And when its time to go home she wants to stay at my house with her new found buddy.

You boys have managed to exalt a number of total dipshits merely because they took on DJT. Please, draw a line. Do not lionize Lavar Ball. FOR THE LOVE OF GOD!
With that said, quality WWE analogy. Well done.Dan Patrick: What was your reaction to [Urban Meyer being hired]?
Brady Hoke: You know.....not....good.

I mean Lavar Ball said he would have beat MJ at one on one at his peak. Trump doesn't know the trap he is walking into. You might be right in the abstract about wrongful lionization but totally wrong on drawing the line at Ball. Have you ever considered tbat his whole life was preparation for this moment? Are you not entertained?
