The “g”

One letter off a word that can’t be said in here.

That’s the conservative way: if you don like it call the other guy a liar. It’s all true. It has all been done. If you want to debate whether or not it’s crated jobs, fine. But don’t call me a fecking liar.

I’m reminded of Oson Welles’ “War of the Worlds”. Let’s get a little more information before we get our hair on fire

I should have quoted you on the movie review. I replied to myself

And, I think it’s a pretty good movie front to back, and I’m not a big Tom Cruise fan.

I think paying based on wealth rather than income would be a lot simpler. Or tie income tax to a percentage based on wealth. “Income inequality isn’t nearly as dangerous for our future as inequalities in wealth”. Alan Greenspan said that a good time back. I believe Ronald Ragass appointed him.

All you do is demonize liberals,vilify LBGTQ people, get apoplectic about any Black Lives Matter supporters, talk about asylum seekers like they’re dogs. You can sure dish it out, but jump behind mommy’s skirt when someone comes after you. Sad.

Infrastructure, policies leading us out of the pandemic, expanding domestic oil production, using his international leadership experience to help repair supply lines, investing in domestic chip production. Want more? That’s just off the top of my head.

That fits pretty closely to the wealth disparities. The ones who own the most should pay the most to finance a government that allows such skewed discrepancies in wealth.

Pay the man! A Few Good Men. We may not agree on politics, but you got a good sense of humor there, man.

When did I condescend to you? Snowflake. Now, that’s condescending.

You can’t handle the truth!

I grew tomatoes and peppers on my apartment patio, but a patio garden is not going to produce a meaningful amount of food. I don’t have to work two jobs just to pay my rent, either.

Some of that trillion we use to build bombs and tanks and carriers an fighters that grows a defense already bigger than the next five or ten nations would be a start. No tax increase neede there. It would be nice if the 1% paid a little tax.

There’s the spin. The jobs weren’t there now they are. If they weren’t created, what verb would you use? Stock markets rise, they fall, they rise, they fall.

Gotta own land to plant enough to subsist. Poor people don’t own land. The bottom 60% of the working population owns 3.3% of the nation’s wealth. Top 10% owns 68%. lhttps://www.statista.com/statistics/203961/wealth-distribution-for-the-us/#:~:text=U.S. wealth distribution Q3 2022&text=In the third quarter of,percent of the total wealth. This site is populated by the most condescending people I believe I’ve ever seen.

You ever hear of a food desert? Why not just reopen bread lines and make ‘em all come downtown to eat rice and beans if they want to live? That’s an America we could all be proud of.

Empirical evidence always beats out talking head BS. Okay. Time for you cats to spin.

Broke fatties? That’s pretty condescending. The cheapest food is also the unhealthiest.

I respect your position.

It’s a back door minimum wage increase. Congress won’t mandate a liveable wage, so they do it this way to make the recipients look like deadbeats instead of workers who can’t live on $10/hr.

They pay little to nothing because they earn little to nothing.

The only links I ever see on here are the ones that confirm the poster’s biases. I prefer to read different points of view and then form my own. It’s called independent thought.

Scary how the Repubs are following it, almost like a blueprint. Say/do one thing today. Tomorrow blame it on the Democrats and their electorate eats it up. I have no idea how folks don’t see it. Don’t want to?
