Yeah cause conservatives are just crusaders of truth and honesty aren’t they?

At least liberals call each other out when they’re full of crap even though they’re batshit crazy.

Well I understand the point you mean of spending more again on military hardware but you know 405 billion wont scratch the surface on paying for universal health care.

Probably not. But a scratch is better than a waste.

We do need to scale back on the military spending tho

Agreed. A lot of money ends up in some fat-cat contractor's pocket.

Do libs ever think of anything other than free shit they want?

Earned income tax credit (EITC). The $70 billion EITC is usually thought of as a subsidy for low-income workers, but the program also subsidizes businesses. The EITC is designed to increase labor supply, but to the extent that it does, it reduces market wages for low-income workers. In effect, the program allows businesses to hire workers at a lower cost, with federal taxpayers picking up part of the wage bill.

if we do drop military spending a bit, we might be able to afford all the free shit

Then it sounds as if it’s time to move. It’s an American tradition. If it’s 45 miles to town and they don’t have a car, then what do they do when they get their welfare check? Order on Amazon?

Able bodied corporations get "vouchers" to the tune of billions every year from tax breaks to flat out subsidies. Socialism for them is ok. But god forbid we feed actual people.

Yep, and those are to stimulate job growth in some cases. The ABAWD should be jumping at the opportunity to get one of those pesky jobs.

Corporations are here to create profit not jobs. Any extra money they have goes primarily to shareholders, secondarily to top brass and maybe the average worker last. Creating jobs is counterintuitive to creating profit. Jobs COST employers money. If they could pay nothing they would.

Sounds as if you are on the wrong side of the equation. Don’t be jealous of them, go out and start your own business and become one of them.

I am doing fine. I have a great job. I pay a metric shit ton of taxes and I am ok with it. I have owned my own business in the past. My family has owned businesses. The reality is we are eroding the middle class. This will ruin us from the middle out. Like a rotting tree.

YOU are on the wrong side of the equation.

Where is that part of their job description? You seem to think it’s businesses job to make everyone comfortable in life. I OTOH, think it’s their own job to make themselves comfortable. Actions have consequences and it’s not my job to correct your mistakes in life
3 ups, 6y
Exactly, by definition they are not responsible to do anything but MAKE money. It would be in their best interest to make sure the working class is doing well. For their own sake. But they don’t care about long term sustainability.

You don't have to believe it. But it's true. Like science. I paid over $35,000 in federal tax last year, my wife about half that much. In any case I am fine. MANY are not ok. Not because they are lazy or want to be in a bad position but because we are trained to believe the wealthy and corporations have our best interests in mind and that ONLY with low taxes on them....will we all do better. We have taken the bargaining powers of Unions away from the working classes. We have villianized the minimum wage. We have gutted saftey net programs. We have deregulated and undertaxed the rich for so long we think it's normal. And they have people brainwashed to believe the OTHER people are the problem. Not them. All YOUR problems are someone else's fault....which is true....but you are blaming the wrong people. And you are fighting THEIR fight.

Look at Chile, Iran, Haiti....it's a matter of time the pitchforks come out here.

So the daily work that keeps a corporation's doors open and earning that profit is performed by who?

You need to stop using blanket statements to try and prove your communist point.
2 ups, 6y
You are exactly right. The labor is the most important part and you'd think they would/should be the primary concern. But not so. Profit, stock prices and shareholders are the primary drivers.

This isn't a communist viewpoint. it's a capitalistic one.
