Does anyone understand that their taxes go to pay for the police, firemen, schools, roads, etc.? No? Trump never mentioned that part? Makes sense since he doesn't pay any.

The nation has never stayed the same. It is way different than it was in my grandfathers time and way different than his. Evolution is one thing destruction is another.

So you think the poor should be on top?

There is no doubt that the rich take advantage. History proves that. Common sense legislation to make it equitable such as minimum wage revision are necessary. Corporate Welfare needs reform as much as regular welfare. Handouts are not the answer. It will make you popular, but it will only lead to more people reliant on the handout like welfare. It has become a generational heredity instead of what it was meant to be. It was supposed to help out in lean times not support you for your whole life.

Yeah but that's not our job it's the politicians and guess what no one has does anything, not Trump, not Biden, not Obama no one will do anything, not in the past, not now, and not in the future.

We elect the politicians. We have to try something different. Too many lawyers as politicians. Vote for regular people in your local races. As a nation a return to citizen legislators would be a good thing to destroy the professional political class and their lobbyist scams on both sides and their money grubbing. Demand Elimination to campaign fundraising and political
PACs. Require the media to provide equal time to candidates for office. All of this energy wasted on hating each other when it could be used for real reform. Everyone was ready to do police reform, then it got out of hand and overreached alienating people who would have supported it. The biggest fear the people in power have is black and white united in love of their country. In any society If you want to know who really has the power and pulls the strings. Figure out whoever you aren’t allowed to criticize and make fun of and it’s them.

Yeah but the problem is the system won't allow it, why do you think Hillary won the Democrat election? She didn't win fair and square, the overall democrat party was corrupt. Bernie Sanders won the most states, but since he was against companies and for socialistic the companies told the democrat party to elect Hillary. That's why Hillary won and that's why Joe Biden won this time. The republicans are on the same payroll to. If the system is broken then it won't allow anyone except the people who work with the corporations. That's the sad truth

That’s because the system you advocate is communist socialism. You want to take more from those that produce to give to those that don’t. Most Americans aren’t for that. Carving a greater slice of the pie for the working man is a winning strategy but the Democrats gave that up

Ok then tell me this are you on a stimulus pay check? You have to answer this for my point to come through

Disinfectant does kill Covid. So he is right. That’s why you can’t find Lysol in the store. Also the WHO came out today and said lockdowns are not, repeat not, a good idea and probably doubled the rate of poverty and malnutrition. So looks like Trump was right on that one too.

Thinking people don’t need Trump to know that hiding from a virus doesn’t make it go away and the lockdowns were a bad idea.
1 up, 4y
No but we should inject ourselves with disinfectant yk since it kills covid-19, trumpy trump said that.
1 up, 4y
That my friend is an oft repeated lie that has been debunked repeatedly you just have to watch the clip of what he actually said. He spoke about research possibilities never told anyone to inject disinfectant. You are a liar spreading a false. statement

What do you mean by stimulus paycheck? I Got a $1200 Covid stimulus benefit Check.

Social programs are not necessarily socialism If that’s what you want to point out. A democratic republic can have social programs and not be socialist.
0 ups, 4y
But that is socialism would you rather not get that check?
0 ups, 4y
It's the government helping out the public
0 ups, 4y
No no my point is if you hate socialism so much and you think it's communism don't accept those checks
0 ups, 4y

I knew that’s where you were going. It’s an oversimplification. Socialism is a very different animal from Capitalism with social programs. Again you can have social programs like welfare and social security and still have capitalism. Socialism is a baby step towards communism and state control of your decisions.

Yeah and communism is a very different animal then socialism, why do you like capitalism so much? Here may I ask you what job you have.

Haha, Not old enough to retire yet. I still work everyday. Not a millennial though. Why do I like capitalism? because it provides choice and freedom and has been the cornerstone of building this nation.

Why do you like baby communism so much?
