What would be the ideal citizens wage then?
Not a clue. You'd have to find a balance between giving people the means to live and disincentivising work.

God leaves signs of faith all over. If you guys choose not to see them, that's on you. I forgive you, you better just hope God does too.
I want no forgiveness from a God that expects my faith on poor evidence.

If the logical positivists got anything right, it's that propositions involving God are non-cognitive.

There's a place, I have gone. There's a beast, and I let it run. Now it's running my way.

It changes depending on fiction/non-fiction/autobiographical et cetera.
And then changes further depending on its genre.
Favourite fiction book, though? Probably Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance. Such a beautiful piece of literature.

If only you could understand the metaphysical aspects of the economic entrencheneurial attachments.

Weren't you in favor of some sort of citizens wage a while back?
I am, for people on zero income.

I've seriously no idea what the graph is showing me. Care to explain for the economically retarded?
It's a demand-supply graph about labour, showing the different effects of either a minimum wage or a subsidy. Essentially, the minimum wage acts as a tax wedge, which increases wages but decreases the available quantity of labour. A government subsidy, paid either to employers or workers, has the same effect on wages while increasing the quantity of labour in the market.

This wouldn't be a problem if we just didn't fucking subsidise farmers.

The BNP are regarded as lunatics in the UK though and never get any seats or get voted into anything else. The Republicans are the actual ruling party half the time, and strong opposition the other half.
I don't care how much you hate Republicans, they are nowhere near as bad as the BNP.

 It's fairly simple. If you want to reduce poverty, use wage subsidies.

Civic, cultural nationalism however is necessary for a healthy society.
How so?
I'm just curious to see what you have to say about this.
How do you expect to have a functioning society, when several different systems of values are competing? It's like pitting the KKK together with the Black Panthers, but on a national level. Take for instance, the relatively misogynistic Islamic cultures of countries like India and Pakistan. And then consider the massive over-representation of Asians in the UK's rape statistics. Culture drives behaviour; if you don't get the culture right, you're going to end up with an entirely fucked society, or a weak society with a proportion trying to fuck it.

Depends on the kind of nationalism.
Blood and soil, ethnic nationalism of the Nazi/Soviet/BNP sort is highly toxic.

May I suggest that you all try voting for the BNP? Truly they are the only political party that can restore Britannia to its former glory.
This hasn't been funny for months.

The only thing I disagree with really is the immigration thing.
Other than that, fuck Labour.

While it's obvious most cops are good, there's clearly a problem in the police force. It's nothing new, it's just technology and social media catching up with bad practice.

The kids a bit of a dick for not saying it, but being kicked out/refused treatment is unacceptable.
Whatever I think about the Pledge shouldn't preclude another individual from proper treatment.

Why does it have to be the SJW LEFT. Why can't it just be "SJW retards"?
Because the guy is an Anarchist, too. I also legitimately don't know anybody who is an SJW and even approaching even the faintest whiff of being a conservative.
