The size of stick you were legally allowed to beat your wife with.

Can't do much damage with that, eh? Should have been the rule of fist.
It actually translates to Faustregel in German, which would translate by word back to rule of fist.

Not getting that reference
The "rule of thumb" I referenced is described in Boondock Saints - a documentary about 2 Irish Catholic brothers who grow sick of the crime in their city so they turn vigilante and take care of shit themselves.

Lifetime appointments need to go away.
Should they be elected?
No.

Washington has proven they aren't responsible enough to handle it.
The American electorate isn't intelligent enough to handle it. We'd have Joe Exotic and Kanye West elected as the next justices.

I haven't watched it yet but it was a fantastic speech.
I enjoy this kind of hysteria

lol
Universal Pre-K is a great idea, a huge intervention into the poverty cycle, and an equalizer for mothers in the work place.
But by Matt Walsh's logic, I suggest we don't start school until 14 years old and only let them go for 4 years. That way government has 2/3rds less time to indoctrinate your children! 4 years of high school is all you need for college anyways. So just start then.

It's like people tweet without even bothering to research statistics, which would have showed them that the vast majority of 4 and 5-year-olds and nearly half of 3-year-olds are already enrolled in preschools:

All Universal Pre-K would do is narrow the aptitude gap between those whose parents can afford to send them to preschools and those whose parents can't.

More than anything I can think of I find the disparity in schooling access and quality based on the zip code to be completely disheartening.

Growing up we lived in a much worse neighborhood than we probably could have stretched to afford. That zoned me to pretty terrible schools. How district later opened if you had your own transportation (and several years later closed again) And I was able to drive across town for my last couple of years of high school to the better school.

That's a dumb system. It penalizes poor kids incentivizes parents to make poor financial decisions just to make sure their kids go to a better school. And then it's a feed forward system of increased cost and taxes in the good schools and gutting property values in the bad ones.

Trying to live responsibly below your means is in direct opposition to your child's public school education quality which is nuts.

In Florida you used to just have to have a friend who lived in a "good" school district. Then you could list their address when enrolling your children.

Very Latin America-esque in our everyday fraud level, Joe.

98% of the morons
I'm finna intentionally misidentify the next plant or animal photo you ask me to check. I'll have you convinced that a polar or desert species has popped up in the midwest and you'll get arrested for trying to wipe out an "invasive" species.

Enjoy jail.

So corporate tax rates going back up?
That worked so well during the Obama years.
