Lol. Big difference In price between a limo and a Lyft. I can get a lyft ride for a few $ more than a one way bus ticket
Like $2.5 as compared to $8

Not $8 compared to 40$

It would cost me over $500/week to commute to work using rideshare. I don't know anyone who could commute for $8/day. If you can, lucky you.

If you’re taking multiple rides and using it constantly than sure. Buses and trains are clearly more cost effective.

If you’re taking a specific ride to one location lyft/Uber are very effective.

Macro v micro.

The initial post claimed rideshare is disrupting public transit. You aren't describing displaced riders, at least not very many.

Rideshare has probably done more of creating new demand and displacing taxis in some scenarios than anything. For example, in Utah why would anyone drive to the airport and pay parking for a week when you can Uber now?

Oh, I glossed over that. Yeah, rideshare isn’t disrupting public transit in any significant way.

I read @One Brow as just dismissing rideshares. I’ll reread it.

No, White supremacy is not a crisis.

The difference really hinges on the foreign aspect. Foreign-based ISIS organizations do not have a constitutional right to form and operate within the United States. White supremacists do.

According to your link, as long as ISIS uses American citizens to organize, it has a right to operate freely here.

, let’s take a moment to consider Antifa. There are those on the right, some of whom I greatly respect, who believe that this “anti fascist” organization, itself no stranger to violence and murder,

There are 0 murders associated with Antifa.

Your usual quality of link.

I promised to stay out of that thread. You should do the same, as should @Eenie-Meenie, @Red, @Zombie, etc. If we don't respect their call for a safe space, why they take such requests seriously when they hear it from others?
Click to expand...

Because they haven’t respected our requests. I can’t begin to tell you how many pages I’ve had to bypass with heathme, babe, and hack posting nonsense. Even when ignored, it makes it unreadable as other posters respond to their nonsense.

Nevertheless, I’ll respect their call for a safe place for the handful of trunpers on this board to have an echo chamber. Btw George soros and antifa pay a lot for us to post “liberal biased” posts here.

OK, I can refrain. I had promised to when that thread was first created, so, I should have kept my word.

i agree and I hereby swear to heretofore after not post in this sacred safe place in the Fox News echo chamber, filled with Trump minion tears.

But as a reminder, I'm a fiscal conservative, just not one who had a skull scoop lobotomy by Trump propaganda.


(PS: Yes, I know heretofore after is improper English, but I'm claiming literary license)

If you need proof that the federal government is inefficient, just look at the Nation Debt. Each person's share of the Federal debt is about $67,000. No private business in history could do this much damage through inefficiency.

I agree that private is much more efficient. But the federal debt is not proof. If our government ran perfectly efficiently our debts would be lower but still humongous. Guns plus butter plus low taxes equals debt.
 
Heathme said:
Quite ironic that you say this thread is for fragile souls. Most of you cannot stop commenting on the fact that I had the audacity to start a thread called a place for conservatives. You can go back to your liberal havens where you feel safe and cozy. I might shake your hand too aggressively or something.

The only people who created safe space threads on this board have been conservatives. The liberals in here universally post where they can be directly criticized.
