    Year of Jubilee and Debt Forgiveness

    Here is a very interesting article.   Should we take the old Middle East and Old Testiment Biblical approach to debt forgiveness in our society - a jubilee - forgiveness of debt? Several of the Dem presidential candidates believe there should be debt forgiveness for school loans.  Bernie...

    Trump's Second Term

    Ok, pick yourself off the floor. Get some smelling salts or slap yourself in the face.  I know that thread title gave some a near heart attack.  I  wanted to piggy back on this very interesting article linked below.  The writer gives his opinion on what a 2nd Trump term would look like...

    What Year are we BACK

    Since that fateful 2001 cold November day in Colorado, the Husker program has been trying to get back to relevance.  Some of us drank the kool-aid and thought Scott Frost could repeat his UCF magic  here in year 2.  Obviously there is more to fix than many of us could imagine.  So, when do you...

    If Trump is out - Who Should GOP nominate

    Assumption # 1 - Trump gets impeached, evidence is overwhelming. The Senate convicts (some GOP senator said 30 GOP senators would probably vote to convict if the ballot was secret).  Trump is out. Then what - we got 3 'third tier' candidates in the race now.  Who do you think will run and who...

    Who should Never Trump Conservatives vote for/support?

    While this is way to early as we are over a year away from the GE, I thought I'd start a thread to get opinions as we go through the election season. NOTE: I'LL ADD A SIMILAR POLL QUESTION AS WE GET CLOSE TO THE ELECTION.  THIS IS JUST YOUR CURRENT GUT CHECK POLL QUESTION.  MUCH WILL  CHANGE...

    Reparations, Racism & Building a better Society

    Reparations came up in the Dem debate last night.   A bunch of questions besides those in the poll: The question is should the US Gov't pay out reparations?  If so to who? And How Much?  How should it be distributed? The larger question, as Joe Biden brought up "Is this generation responsible...

    First (Blank) President

    I think the Dem party would be putting a wet blanket on their progressive talk if they nominate one of the old white guys.  Therefore, I expect the Dems to eventually nominate one of these 3, listed below, unless a sleeper surprises us like a Andrew Yang.   However, if the Dems want to play it...

    One Millennial's Thoughts from the Coffee Shop

    My Dad sent me this.  I didn't know where to put it so ding dong - I started a thread for it.  I'm not familiar with the website but I liked her perspective.    She reminds us that for all of our issues, America is blessed beyond any other in so many ways.  She notes that we have an...

    Congressial Investigations on Trump - Post Mueller

    I thought I'd start a catch all thread on the investigations that are taking center stage now that Mueller has exited the theater.  We are now into a new phase of the Russian investigation and I think it will really get ugly.  This is more than about Russia, it involves Russia, Trump's taxes...

    Trump, Narcissistic Personality Disorder, Amendment 25

    Knapp posted a series of Trump tweets on the "Man you can Bait wt a Tweet" thread.   To me the tweets displays a man who is every bit a narcissist - but we knew that.   What is alarming is his tweets demanding the NY Times and specific news people to basically get on their knees and apologize. ...

    2020 Congressional Elections

    We'll start this thread (seems like just yesterday we were doing 2018) with this post. Alabama GOP voters my be doubling down on dumb.  Roy Moore once again leads the GOP in early primary polling of likely candidates. So I wonder what will come out of the closet this time around...

    New Dem Proposed Policies- the Good, The Bad But Fixable, The Ugly

    Now that Dems have control of the House and now that the Dem primary season is upon us, we  are hearing of new policy positions that are being proposed by House members and by candidates. Some proposals deserve consideration and thoughtful debate, others not so much.   So, I though we could use...

    Stress - Is life more stressful today?

    Everyone can vote on this. The article below talks about Millenials and stress but that begs the question - is life more stressful today because of technology? Is life more stressful now than in the 90s, 80s, 70s, 60s??   Has technology made life more stressful - is it better to be in ignorant...

    Socialism or Capitialism Preference Poll

    I commented on this Axios article in the Dem rebuild thread and wanted to do a poll on HB that matches the Axios poll.  HB only allows 3 questions however. My 3rd question, I noted European socialism and not Venezuela socialism as I wanted to take the sting and stink of what is happening in...
