如何反驳？
2, 左派一方面对毒品泛滥忧心忡忡，但是却又否认希拉里的改革措施会加重毒品犯罪
，这里有没有逻辑问题？还是说现在的严刑峻法确实对阻止毒品没有用？
3, 左派还说这些措施只能说明希拉里希望不要把简单持有毒品的轻罪犯关进监狱。

End the era of mass incarceration
Today in America, more than one out of every 100 adults is behind bars. This
mass incarceration epidemic has an explicit racial bias, as one in three
black men can expect to go to prison in their lifetime. A significant number
of those incarcerated are held for low-level, nonvi... 阅读全帖 |

Shocking data revision by feds: Americans’ wages dropped 4.2% instead of
rising in the first quarter
By Thomas Lifson
Wages for Americans are dropping at a rapid rate, instead of rising as the
feds had claimed. This shocking news -- making President Obama’s claim
that the economy has recovered from the great recession laughable – was
buried in a report on second quarter earnings, and has barely registered in
the nation’s media, which are anxious to elect Hillary Clinton.

The real question about minimum wage laws

The federal minimum wage requirement was originally determined to be
unconstitutional by the Supreme Court. After FDR threatened to pack the

美国东部时间：2016年9月26日，下午2点。美国2016年总统大选第一场辩论正式开战。
美国相关安全部门已经在长岛的霍夫斯特拉大学部署就绪。
总统大选辩论共有三场，26号为首场辩论。辩论举办地在美国长岛的霍夫斯特拉大学。
辩手：
民主党候选人：希拉里·克林顿
共和党候选人：唐纳德·特朗普
辩论持续时间：90分钟。共分为六个部分，每部分15分钟时限。
大选辩论的意义何在？根据Nielson统计有1/3的选民表示辩论会对他们的投票决定产生
重大影响，由此可见，距离大选结果尘埃落定还有一个多月，这三场辩论有着“扭转乾
坤”的潜力。这无疑为原本就备受关注的2016美国大选添了油加了醋，增加了大选的戏
剧性和可看性。
在这个离大选结果只有一个多月的关头，希拉里和特朗普的两扇大门横在仍旧徘徊不定
的选民面前，这场辩论就是他们最后的钥匙，让他们自行选择走进哪扇门。
废话不多说，我们开门见山，直奔主题，看看双方辩手在六个辩论板块中的表现。

the way modern conservatism sits in American life. As an ideology—and

In combination, these changes simplify tax filing and effectively create a
