Let their fucking billionaires pay for it. Or just keep the war going til they move. Either way, not on my goddamn tab, thanks.
How do you plan to stop them? Are you able to refile your taxes as exempt effective immediately? Because otherwise you are going to pay and there is next to nothing you can do about it...
Of course, I realized this right away. When we are done destroying everything, we are going to have to pay to fix it all up, as well as fix our own broken government.
Before we take it out of the Treasury, though, we should confiscate the entire fortunes and corporations of a few people, starting with Trump, Musk, Theil, Ellison, Bezos, the Waltons, and a bunch more. They wanted MAGA, they supported MAGA, and that choice will cost them every penny they've stolen to clean up their mess.
Netherlands here. Where should we apply for this US tax paid DEI grant?
Take a number and get in line, I am pretty sure the Netherlands reparations are pretty far down on the list.
Unless you count the massive deaths from leaded fuels, forever chemicals, micro plastics, etc. that the US invented and then proliferated knowing of the horrors they would bring. To top it off when they were confronted with the truth they did everything in their power to ignore, deceive, and then lie about it.
Damn, well maybe you aren't that far down the line. I am pretty sure reparations would be in the hundreds of trillions for all the damaged caused which is far more than the US has.
I suppose the best solution would be to just dissolve the US at this point.
pipedream
Why? It doesn't have to be. We are in unprecedented times, and it will require unprecedented solutions. Just because our elected leaders were too cowardly to do it the past, doesn't mean we have to keep following their shameful malpractice.
Perhaps the biggest one is a conscious decision that the citizens do not exist to serve the wealthy. The wealthy are allowed to keep their wealth, as long as they are serving the needs of the citizens. As soon as they are found to be hoarding wealth, abusing their employees or the systems, engaging in corruption, etc., they will be imprisoned, and their entire fortune confiscated, and their families prohibited from accessing government assistance.
The wealthy will quickly learn that wealth comes with important responsibilities and harsh punishments, and it might not be worth it to be wealthy.
I'm always going to be a little bit pissed off that we never got President Bernard Sanders.
Oh, I get it.................This is the bad place.
Been watching this again, it's nice to absorb something positive for a change. Gonna have to find something with the same tone to binge after this
Similar, Upload?
Just watched a couple episodes, and yeah, thats about as close as I could expect, thanks for the heads up!
Gonna have to find something with the same tone to binge after this
Good luck with that, The Good Place is pretty singular
I've always wanted to watch it and finally got around to it. Great show, wish I didn't sleep on it!
I did a Binge Watch January (totally didn't make this up) and caught up on a half dozen shows. I got some whiplash going from Barry to The Good Place to Severance lol

If people knew what was good for them, they would have supported him. Instead, racism, bigotry and intolerance was a priority for the majority of Americans. Good job fucking yourselves over last election. I hope Trump keeps this shit up till you guys reach the boiling point....
Don't get me wrong, there are plenty of good folks in America, but arguably, not enough yet.
“What do you tell voters who are new to the process who say this makes them feel like it’s all rigged?” Tapper asked the DNC chair.
“Unpledged delegates exist really to make sure that party leaders and elected officials don’t have to be in a position where they are running against grassroots activists,” Wasserman Schultz calmly explained.
Fuck Debbie Wasserman Schultz. Fuck the DNC. They literally worked against the will of the people to install an establishment candidate and told the world they did it. This is not democracy. This is the event that radicalized me.
You're confusing the DNC with the primary voters, who gave Clinton a landslide victory over Sanders. You can't get any closer to the will of the people than that.
Yeah, but thats a shallow fact. It ignores the very real truths of the dnc not staying neutral in 2016. It ignores the concept of superdelegate that existed back then. Sure the promary voters ultimately decided, but pretending like the dnc didnt put the thumb on the scale with its media aparatus is to be disingenuous.
Superdelegates existed in 2008 as well. They were mostly in Clinton's camp, but when Obama got ahead in the primary voting, not even anywhere close to as big a margin as Clinton had over Sanders, they switched. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2008/feb/23/uselections2008.barackobama
When she ultimately lost the primary, she threw her support behind Obama in the general election. https://www.c-span.org/program/american-history-tv/senator-hillary-clinton-2008-convention-speech/194032
Well, our "left" party instead decided to call Bernie Sanders racist during the primaries and do everything they could, twice, to keep him from winning their primary. So, it's not just racist voting for Trump that does this. The entire political establishment is absolutely terrified of an actual leftist running on the Democratic ticket for president.
Because once every 4 years when Americans actually pay attention to politics for a month or two, they would overwhelmingly vote for a leftist pushing progressive working class policies. No matter how "racist" they are. Racist in this country also have had someone they know experience crippling medical debt.
The 30% of this country that votes for racism and bigotry is the only group of people that actually see their policy positions get passed. The rest of us got garbage healthcare reform, more wars, more police state and surveillance, oh, and a genocide from the "not racist" party.
The racist bigots are the only ones with a lot of motivation to go to the polls. At least they get something for taking time off work to go vote.
The biggest issue is a lot of Americans don’t vote.
god i fucking love that we have compulsory voting in australia
literally solves so many issues

Don't forget the Democratic National Convention ratfucking Bernie twice. Establishment Democrats can't let progressives get into power because it threatens their own, since Dems and Cons share a lot of the same donors (AIPAC, etc.).
The leverage of course being switching from the US petroleum dollar to the Chinese petroleum yuan.

America First!!! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸 🦅™
America first. Where did I hear that?
Fist in the "get fucked in the ass* konga line.
No you mistook their meaning. They said "Us first". Everyone thought they meant the USA but the oligarchs literally mean "us".
If the US doesn't bail out the UAE they will need to sell some of their $2 trillion in assets to fund their SimCity in the dessert thats suffering because of ~~Epstein's~~ Epic ~~Fuck-up~~ Fury. A lot of those assets are in companies owned by Trump and his Oligarch friends.
