Lay off the government

Yea, its more like an Organized crime syndicate.

It's always been a business, but a forced charity business where you donate without permission from yourself

The Government is not a business. They are a parasite. They do not produce anything and all they do is take, and take, and take, and take, and take, and take, and take, and take, and take, and take, and take, and take, and take, and take, and take, and take, and take, and take, and take, and take, and take, and take, and take, and take, and take.....

Libs always, always, always throw that out there when you disparage their precious Federal government.

Police - City, County and State governments. Not Federal
fire departments - City and/or County governments. Not Federal
roads and bridges - City, County and State government. Not Federal.

That leaves the military and prisons.

the military - Federal Government
prisons - Combinations of County, State and Federal Government

Here's something no liberal knows. The founding fathers were opposed to standing armies. They believed that the people should form militias and be armed to fight against all enemies both foreign and domestic, which includes our own government (see the Declaration of Independence).

They believed that a standing army could be used by the government against the people. That is why the marines back then were merchant marines. They were not paid or supported by the government, they were essentially mercenaries.

At some point (I haven't looked into when) the government formed armies. However, those armies were created with trying to keep to the spirit of what the founders envisioned. Instead of standing armies, our soldiers have to re-enlist every 4 years.

Now, I think times have changed so radically in warfare that it would impractical to expect a private citizen to be able to fly a fighter jet, operate a tank, and every other high tech form of weaponry in our arsenal. We need our military but we also need some accountability in the money spent in the military. I believe they need to have the money they need to have the maximum effectiveness in war but a blank check can be easily abused.

But here's the thing. The government is a leech, parasite. Because the majority what they steal from us we get no return on the money. With fire, police, roads, etc. we are getting a return. We give the money to the government and they take care of that in the most inefficient and expensive way possible but at least we're getting something. But that is such a very small part of our paycheck. The larger part goes to who know what. Part of that goes to things I am in direct opposition to. Part of what I worked for and the government steal supports the private organization, Planned Parenthood abortions.

The parasites have no right to my money. They didn't earn it. I get so very little in return for the money sent to them. For around 131 days out of a year I am a slave for the government.

thats the most detailed comment ive ever seen. i agree and kudos for that

my question is why we shouldn't get a say on how the gov. spends their money, did you know our taxpayer money is going to small businesses in Ukraine, while small businesses over her are struggling, what the actual f**k

That is a serious problem. We are spending billions on Ukraine and that money is being funnelled off to Zelensky and coming back to fund the Democrat Party. It is not helping them all that much. We need to end all of that. Ukraine can fend for themselves. It's just a proxy war with Russia anyway. Biden wants full on war with Russia. He wants WWIII.

We give so much money to every foreign country. How does any of that help America?

We'd be much better off keeping our money and letting us decide on who to help. It would be a whole lot less expensive and a whole lot better help.

We didn't start off with and income tax. That was the doings of one of the worst presidents we've ever had, Woodrow Wilson. He forced the Progressive income tax on us and the Federal Reserve. Both have been nothing but a curse on this nation.

Wow. You just pointed out everything wrong without being biased. I would like to shake your hand good sir.

The only problem is that Elon Musk is an immigrant. He wasn't born in America and is not qualitied to be president.

So we need someone else who is willing to cut the government down to is original size. There's no excuse for it growing this big. It grew under the guise of helping the people and with every growth spurt it hurt more people than it helped.

Under Biden, the government is hurting the people it is supposedly helping.

Trump already did that. And fired most of the people that he hired, called them great people on the way in, and cussed them on the way out.

I guess you'd call Trump an effective business manager eh?

If it works it works but the best people not gonna want to deal with that sh*t

Bleeding money and overrun with Nazis is an interesting definition of “better.”

Yeah, if turning it into a worthless pile of shit is making it work better...😆

Free speech is so annoying to you isn’t it?

Turning a worthless pile of shit into a worthless pile of shit, but smaller. Is an improvement.

You: people have more rights to say what they want on Twitter now, it's a worthless pile of shit.

What they're really upset about is the exposure of Twitter's censorship of Conservatives.. that's why they now are pushing a BS narrative of an increase in racial slurs...

Right, the party that believes racism is cured with more racism just redirected.

I’m for free speech and not being a crybaby. People say all Kinda of nonsense online. I bet you defended all the anti white racial slurs though right?

LOL... they believe only whites can make racial slurs...

because whites have to play nice, because if they don't they're racist, but if they say nothing, they are letting others be oppressed. History is not their fault, but our society ignores that.

We have to speak up against it as you are doing now everywhere we encounter it.

Of course, they’ve never heard Latinos talk about black people or black people talk about Asians, whites and Latinos. Racial tropes and hate are easily found spoken against every race.

Since the AP is pro-HAMAS . . . there's a bit of a problem with the AP deciding that racial tweets have soared since Musk took over Twitter. Sort of like Benedict Arnold proclaiming someone else to be a traitor.

Except the AP isn't pro-Hamas. Stop making shit up.

Hahahaha! They hired pro-HAMAS 'journalists' to give the pro-HAMAS side of things after the massacre of Jewish civilians. Yeah . . . the AP is definitely pro-HAMAS.

So it's wrong to give both sides?

But are they giving both sides?

Nope! Or rather yes, but it goes something like this:

"The innocent HAMAS freedom fighters finally struck back against Israeli repression. In retaliation Israeli monsters are killing women and children that HAMAS is holding up before them in hopes that the IDF animals will grow a conscience." That's their version of 'telling both sides of the story'.

Their propaganda machine didn't report that... LOL

I . . . wonder . . . why.

Proof that they had media people riding along with Hamas on Oct 7?

Aye.

How can they tell? Racial slurs were already sky high before Musk took over.

You missed the point, I was being facetious regarding the AP's choice of words, since Twitter was already a cesspool of racial slurs from "liberals", not even counting those aimed at white people.

"Liberals" of any color - black, brown, or white - feel decidedly entitled to use hard racial slurs aimed at people of color who don't obey their Democrat massuhs.

Oh no! The AP says this is a fact?

Anyway

Twitter was ALWAYS a worthless pile. Musk made it slightly more valuable.

If u can make cars that blow up when they touch water, imagine how the government could use those

our government is broken, constantly leeching off of us, through military and money, whilst constantly bombarding us with propaganda
