  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

The International Brotherhood of Teamsters announced on Wednesday that they will not be endorsing any candidate for president this fall, the first time that they haven’t made a presidential endorsement in nearly 30 years.

The announcement came after the 1.3+ million member union released internal polling data that showed that its members shifted from supporting President Joe Biden over former President Donald Trump to overwhelmingly supporting Trump over Vice President Kamala Harris after Biden dropped out of the race.


Very cowardly of the Teemsters.

Texas already had driverless trucks on their highways this summer.
The other red states will soon follow suit.
Soon it will be a union of ghost drivers who put their trust in the party of oligarchs.

I believe that the Democratic Party is the party of the oligarchs.

Both parties are the party of oligarchs.
Which is why we American voters should vote for candidates who are NOT beholden to the influence and money of wealthy corporations and also wealthy individuals.

I agree. Especially when those candidates are promising favors for political donations.

We have failed to do so for the past century or so. I find it unlikely we will start now. However here is hoping we come to our senses soon.

Based on what I've heard from the left the goal is a society where people don't have to work for a living. Especially grueling underpaying jobs like being a truck driver.

When unions demand too much and drive up the price of everything for the rest of us, ingenuity steps in and takes the biggest cost of transportation out of the equation.

I suggest you look at the conservative 6 on the Supreme Coirt and the dictionary definition of oligarchs.
You mean constitutionally appointed justices who are part of the 3rd branch of government?

Too bad union members are so easily manipulated.
And who would that be? Which party actually passes laws to help the working man and which consistently puts up laws against him/her?

Which party took away the right to heat/water breaks in one of them hot states? Which party is voting to allows child labour?

Which party convinced masses of people that a corpulent billionaire has working man's interest at heart?
