                Melania - did you hear that? Hey - I should give her a break. The price she pays (or paid at one time) on her back is pretty damn steep. In fact, she almost lost the whole gambit on her wedding night with those fatal few words: "Is it in yet?" OK - now, time for a small hand (i.e., round of applause . . . what else could it mean?).

                            Joe Biden cited that the U.S. is responsible for only 15% of total global emissions and that even if the U.S. makes drastic changes in climate policy it is not going to do much in the grand scheme of things.

                            I don't think this is ever a good argument. I'm a vegetarian, so let's say I save about 25 animals a year (some statistic I once read). Not a lot, you might say. Except that millions of people are vegetarian and the more people do it the more accept it and follow by example (even if it's just eating less meat). So all in all, we're saving hundreds of millions of animals per year, and that's a big number. This is only possible if the individual doesn't believe in the "I don't make a difference" argument. Let's take the example where it hurts Biden, you don't hear him say "don't vote for me because your individual vote doesn't do much in the grand scheme of things." :D The same goes for climate change, and 15% for one single country is quite a lot actually. So if America does it they're also setting an example for other countries, they can learn from each other, etc. So I'd argue that if they make drastic changes it would do A LOT in the grand scheme of things. China and India are doing it, by planting a shitload of trees, so America better not lag behind! And I, for one, would welcome that, because I do think we have a problem (and I'm doing my individual part as well) :)

                              As someone who doesn't want children at all it's beyond me why anyone would ever want more than, say, two. Or how you'd pay for more :~ I do think child birth beyond the first or second child should be discouraged, like child support only for the first child, etc. And of course legal abortion possible through late stages in pregnancy.

                                Agreed. But then again I can't recall the last time I saw a Democrat with a good argument for anything.

                                        Agreed. But then again I can't recall the last time I saw a Democrat with a good argument for anything.

                                        I guess I'm a "democrat" for US standards. But then again, the whole of Europe is :D I'd recommend a mostly weapon/gun free society with free healthcare and tuition, but you'd rather pay or die with guns blazing ;)

                                        Yes you may. I'm all for a world where animals do not have to suffer :) Unfortunately, we're far from that world, but at least I'm doing my part in minimizing the suffering by going vegetarian (been doing that since I was 10). I still eat eggs and yogurt and drink milk and wear leather shoes, I'm not vegan (which is probably not impossible, but still a bit difficult in the rural area where I live). As an added bonus it's supposed to be better for the environment :D

                                          I find joy in many things. Friends and family, nature, hobbies, work (sometimes)... It's not all about me, but a lot of it is, because this is my life :D I wouldn't call it selfish, it's just living my life without the hassle of children.

                                          It's not killing if it isn't even born yet. It's just ejection of something that would, in a few months, become a human baby. Of course the mother has to consent because it's her body. That said, no baby in the animal kingdom is as repulsive as the human baby (I really don't like babies) X| I mean look at these cute animal babies - Google Search[^] :D And then at human babies - Google Search[^] X|
