  • 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.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

Our present course is dealing with COVID-19. Our former economic plans are out the window, and we have to come up with new ideas.

The economic plans and COVID are linked in cases such as Andrew Cuomo, IIRC in early April he cut funding for the hospitals despite being in the middle of a Corona virus outbreak.

Fact is, the very rich want to be richer and have no interest in ordinary people staying alive.

Money is awfully tight for Cuomo and some other governors these days.

Our corrupt federal government and hands-off President have allocated trillions to corporations and taken billions away from the state governments who need it to fund Medicare and Medicaid to keep their populations alive.

OK, the CARIES Act went through Senate 96-0, there is no one in there worth a sh**. We have to go third party.

CARIES (named after tooth decay) is a huge cash injection into companies and therefore the stock market so people with enough money to invest will get richer,

and 1,760 billion (CBO estimate) will go that way which would have funded Medicare for a very long time (don't believe the publicity, it takes forever to disentangle the finances, but should work a whole bunch better than Elizabeth Warren's explanation seemed to suggest) the money is gone that could have rescued the general population.

Donald Trump won despite lack of experience and knowledge, and despite being very rich because there was no alternative. Not being among the known criminals on Capital Hill was a big enough plus.

C'mon third parties, anyone who isn't a crazy war monger (Hillary) or chickens out and leaves his supporters with no one to support (Bernie) or thinks he is running for Senate (nearly dead Joe), is in with a chance.

I'm going to have to change my avatar again and go on over to Albion's thread on third parties.
