Especially when the first things they do are start taking apart consumer and environmental protections, disband social safety nets, increase taxes (tariffs) on imported goods, attack FEMA, and stop farm subsidies, all of which hurt the working class.
Not only do people still believe the ridiculous lie, they believe it despite the mountain of evidence they don't give a fuck about you.
You hate the Republican party so much you support government waste over accountability for our tax dollars. That's completely insane.
You hate people who want to be genuinely free to the point that you support stripping freedoms from others.
I hate freedom-haters like you. If you don't like it, get out.
I don't hate anyone. You are free to be as angry as you like, no one cares.
Your ignorant speech and actions say otherwise. People do care, otherwise you wouldn't be responding, limp jackass.
Aww. Do you need a safe space to reflect?
🤣 I rest my case.
I'll take that as a yes.
Any system large enough is going to have waste and fraud. That doesn't mean the system shouldn't exist, and it certainly doesn't mean that the system shouldn't be handed over to the largest wasters and fraudsters on the planet.
Are you talking about the ones that are actually reporting the waste and fraud, lmao.
I do agree that there is a huge opportunity for waste and fraud in a large system, that's why most have third party auditing.
Lmao you think what’s happening now is going to increase accountability?
Explain how it hasn't.
Our system ~~has~~/had accountability baked into it. Rather than rely on our separation of powers and independent inspectors general, you chuckle fucks, in your infinite lack of wisdom, decided to hand our government over to a Nazi billionaire with glaring conflicts of interest.
Accountability? Puuuuuuhlease.
Nazi billionaire....you really drank the Kool aid didn't you.
Would you rather we continue to tax and spend? You sound extremely liberal, so I'll assume yes.
Are you trying to tell us that the guy that has billions of dollars and also did Nazi salutes on stage where we all saw it clearly.... somehow is actually NOT a Nazi billionaire?
If he acts like a Nazi, talks like a Nazi, salutes like a Nazi. He might just be a Nazi
And if he has billions of dollars he might just be a billionaire.
So, with the same logic you would agree that Biden is a pedophile...with all the videos of him clearly acting inappropriately with very young children ....right?
The reason you are being down voted is because the current administration is not doing that. They SAY that's what they are doing, but pay attention to their actual actions and who is benefitting. Look at the outcomes. It is the opposite of what you want.
Here is the crazy thing, I am very left wing, but I agree with you on the point of bringing down wasteful spending and that we should have accountability for government spending and such. But Trump and Elon are not at all doing those things. They are in this for their own selfish desires and agendas and they have convinced a lot of people otherwise. They are cutting the parts of government that oppose them or that they don't like and none of that is going to have any significant impact on the budget. Go look up how much we spend on our defense budget or other big costs. Maybe we should stop sending bombs all over the world? Maybe we don't need to spend more than half the other countries on earth combined? Maybe we shouldn't have a system that allows a dozen people to have more wealth stolen and hoarded from the rest of the country? Maybe we need some fair wages for our hard work so that you and I can be a hard working American that gets fairly paid for our labors? The American Dream doesn't work if you can work your whole life and still be in debt, while someone else can rake in billions without working at all, but simply because they own you and the company you work for.
I would wager that you and I want the same things. To be able to work and provide for ourselves and our family, to have enough to eat and have a home and hobbies and enjoy life. We want to feel like we contribute to our community. We want to create things and fix things and make things around us better for ourselves and others. We want to love and be loved. We want a government that REPRESENTS the people and invests in things that benefit us and help us and doesn't waste it or tax us unfairly for it.
So why do you think the Republican party is helping you when they have a track record of voting for tax cuts to the billionaires and mega corporations and simultaneously raising your individual taxes? Why are they telling you to fear and hate immigrants when they are the backbone and the reason our country even started? Why are they telling you to fear and hate trans people that just want to exist and be who they are? Why are they NOT saying a word about the trillions of wasted money on military? The trillions stolen from us hard working Americans that goes into the pockets of the already rich like Elon? Could it be that they are lying to us?
Go look at the actions they make and look past the words they speak and tell me what you find.
Thanks for taking the time for such a thoughtful response. I do believe there is much more common ground between us all and it would be great if we focused on and built off of that.
As far as down votes...that's what happens when you offer a conservative opinion on a liberal site. Maybe one day I'll learn not to reply.
If you are a liberal don't care about your opinion.
The people spoke, and they told liberals to shut the fuck up already.
the bullshit you likely support is over.
Good job building off that common ground.
Read the entire thread...ill almost guarantee you i did nothing other than take shit in all the comments prior to that. People get frustrated and lash out. But thanks for posting what i said without the full context.
I have, and the context around each of your comments. The first one I quoted is a top level comment, there is no context because you read something, thought up that response and posted it.
And being disagreed with isn't the same thing as taking shit.
Don't be part of the problem and then try and claim the moral high ground. You're as entrenched in your position as those you seem to despise so much.
Understood....and it seems you could take some of your own advice.
