POV: You told a rude Québécois kid who gave you grief for daring to speak English that fries are better with ketchup than as poutine, so now he's folk-dancing to defend the village's honour.
@Ben_Scallan@griptmedia The Brookings Institution released a study last week confirming something that anyone with a semester of economics could have told you four years ago: When a government floods a housing-constrained country with millions of additional people in a short period, rents go up.
@DataRepublican@sweetguarddog Do you notice it is all ex employees, journos and tankies complaining about the death of USAID?
Not the recipient countries ?
Many didn’t want the agenda they were forced to accept/go along with to get aid.
@griptmedia Good luck with that. 😂😂😂. They are going to say they’ll do it. Do nothing. And the EU has no way to enforce anything. They will mildly nag CCP, but ultimately do nothing as they are dependent on China and cheap oil. This is an exercise in futility.
@evanwch Obama won with this group, he then bashed them and lost them. Lots of blue collar whites were proud to vote for the first black president. Sadly, he then called them bitter clingers and inflamed racial tension, which has now become its own industry.
@nataliegwinters This is so obnoxious. “In exchange for living in a rural area” as if it is a hardship. These morons are just nakedly trying to import votes. They sure didn’t ask rural people if this is what they wanted. It would be a resounding NO.
