Society will just reorganize to provide. There are a ton of bullshit jobs out there that don’t need to be filled. The higher pay (specifically designed to be high to attract workers) will attract people to work the homes.

Nah, tax the billionaires to bring money back to the working class and to fund the nursing homes. There are enough resources to support an elderly population, it’s all just being hoarded by assholes.

I assume “grown”—or “born and raised—in America.

AKA: US citizens.

Government research money and other grants aside, if the government stops giving FAFSA money to a college, a massive source of the college’s income stream halts, preventing them from paying employees and keeping the lights on, and preventing a vast majority of students from stepping foot on campus.

That being said, if the college can convince donors to reorganize endowment money in order to tell Trump to go fuck himself, I support that college 💯

Who convinced Trump that coal is worth going back to and what false data/logic did they use?

I didn’t even know coal companies made enough money to lobby, anymore.

Yeah. Students are leaving early because, reasonably so, they’d rather go home then end up in El Salvador.

Because that worked so well before.

Yeah, in the USA, religious beliefs are held in more importance than the right to access basic survival resources.

They’re convinced that these immigrants are in the system because they’re illegally receiving benefits as illegal aliens.

Yeah, and most non-Nazis have long left the platform and deleted their account. The log-in issue is a huge one. It effectively blocks a massive portion of the US from getting important information about money that is theirs.

Definitely. Things politicians say make a lot more sense when you realize that code speak.

It kind of always has been this way. “The people,” “Americans,” “White people,” etc have always been defined arbitrarily, and always in American history have referred to wealthy landowners who adhered to a puritan work ethic and a supposed “Anglo-Saxon” culture.

I’m torn on this. Like I don’t like giving churches special rights, but also, it’s great that many are trying to protect immigrants and I want to keep those safe spaces.
