Re: Dole Kemp 96 Web Site
#42Which reminds me of Treehouse of Horror VII. "The politics of failure have failed. We need to make them work again! Tomorrow, when you are sealed in the voting cubicle, vote for me, Senator Ka... ... Bob Dole!"
"It's a two party system. You have to vote for one of us." I think about this episode so much. It has lived rent-free in my head for decades. I pronounce Clinton and Dole's names in the Kodos and Kang voices. >sigh<
> I think about this episode so much
Same.
"Well, I believe I'll vote for a third-party candidate."
"Go ahead, throw your vote away! Hahahahahaha!"

Re: Dole Kemp 96 Web Site
#43Has the site actually been running all this time? I notice that the generator tag says "FrontPage 12" (post-2003), and site has a TLS certificate, which in 1996 it most certainly would not have had.

#45Seeing the phrase "Smaller government" in a main tagline is so weird to see. Don't think that's an idea really any politician would even pay lip service to anymore.
Are you from the US? It’s been a centerpiece of Republican propaganda for 50 years. It’s a total lie though.

Violent crime plummeted throughout the 90s because abortions was legalized in 1973, 17-27 years before 1990 and 2000, respectively, roughly coinciding with the early adulthood period where a vast majority of criminal offenses are committed, the offender having the freedom of an adult without the fully formed prefrontal cortex of one yet. The fetuses that were aborted were overwhelmingly from socioeconomic demographic…
That's very bad for the Prison Economy. :-/
Don't worry, we tripled incarceration rates between 1980 and 2000, particularly of nonviolent drug offenders, to make up for the difference. This is America, after all, we can't just let the businesses fail!

Well, they didn't win, but the economy boomed under Clinton (from the Bush recession through the dotcom bubble) and violent crime plummeted in the same time frame as well.

Freakanomics made that argument, but there is very little statistical evidence abortions were the cause. For one thing, abortions were legal in states like California and New York, which also saw crime drops.

Sounds like you would be served well reading a book or two: https://www.amazon.com/Coolidge-Amity-Shlaes/dp/0061967556

This is likely a myth; crime dropped all across the developed world in a similar timeframe, but dates of legalisation of abortion likely don't line up. One popular speculation is the phasing out of leaded petrol, but really this one seems to remain a case of "shrug, dunno".
