In conclusion, we can trust scientific consensus when they tell us GMOs are safe. The point you're missing is that "safety of GMO's" doesn't start and stop with consumption. Also it's clear you didn't see her answer the question about it from the town hall. | ||

Is this your way of admitting you've been dodging the issue around GMO safety going beyond consumption on purpose? | ||

Present me with an argument and I'll address it. Telling someone to sit down and watch a 2 hour video or else admit ignorance is ridiculous. Addressing a 3rd candidate polling at less than 5% is already being generous. There are other things to discuss besides the green party's recent attempt. This isn't the first election with a green party candidate. It won't be the last. Politics in our country has continued as if the green party doesn't even exist for a long time. As I said, if you can tell me which part of this video is relevant, I'll gladly watch it and address it. | ||

I would take that as a, you dont want to be succinct in providing your evidence, I mean if you've seen it and you know where its been addressed. For all the effort you put in a couple of time stamps couldn't hurt. He has a point. The burden of proof is not on him to sift through 2 hours of a video for evidence of a claim you are making. Unless all 2 hours are relevant which I believe to be a suspect thought at best. | ||

It was because they needed 100% of all democrats in the senate on board in order to pass it and thats a very tall order to get everyone in a party on board a single piece of legislation all because of the pointless and unneeded filibuster. | ||

GMO bad, it's mentioned somewhere in this long VOD is very different from "Jill be the shit yo, watch this sick track where she lays down some truth, boom!" | ||

Not disagreeing with any given point. Just saying that the initial ACA was much grander and was gutted because Democrats have very little party loyalty. Just look at the GOP congressmen supporting trump 2-3 months ago. Death on their faces like someone was ramming an iron star up their asses, and yet we're still able to say that they supported Trump. Because they understand party unity is to stand together. Dems can't even agree on what a progressive law should be let alone ban together to push it. | ||
