@mattgaetz You all are providing a popular alternative option?

@RandPaul As America is a fiat currency;
and as Congress allocates the budget, then the Fed and treasury then literally create the money out of thin air, would it not be fair to say that Washington is then by definition “living within its budget?”

[Christopher Allen @ChrisAllen0035]

@catturd2 You disagree?

@libsoftiktok The level of hubris required for his is beyond comprehension. The level of water brain required to support it, is unfortunately, easily comprehended.

@unusual_whales Short term pain, for long term gain? 🤣

This supercut of Trump admin officials saying high gas prices were "short term pain for long term gain" is now 160 days old

Pop quiz: why do you think a meal for 16 dollars is a headline news story? Think hard about this.

A lot of people aren't going to want to hear this but much of the "depression" that parents (and not just moms) suffer after child birth is due not so much to hormones but to the fact that children, especially babies, are demanding and difficult and require us to subordinate our own needs and desires for their sake. The more selfish you are, the more of an adjustment it's going to be.

@amun_osiris @mattvanswol “Young people doing stupid things,” as if they are getting a tattoo or dying their hair.

This is young adults beating the shit out of people, and causing actual physical bodily harm.

@SenFettermanPA Have you considered the possibility that it’s because you all suck?

My boomer dad asked me last week why I'm still renting at 43.

I told him a starter home in our area is $410,000.

He said "so save up."

I said the down payment alone is $82,000.

He said "that's not so bad, break it into pieces."

I said after rent, insurance, and daycare I put away maybe $400 a month.

He did the math out loud. Got to seventeen years. Went quiet.

Then he said something I didn't expect.

"I put down $3,200 on our first place. I had it saved in eight months working at the plant."

Then he just sat there for a second.

"I always thought you kids were exaggerating."

That's it. That's the whole conversation.

He wasn't being cruel. He genuinely had no idea. Nobody ever showed him the number.

Most of them aren't defending the system. They just never looked at it.

@RandPaul Did you know that it has absolutely 0% effect on the value of the American dollar?

[Christopher Allen @ChrisAllen0035]

@AndyBeshearKY @NatUrbanLeague Never?

[Christopher Allen @ChrisAllen0035]

@AutismCapital @RandPaul It literally has absolutely no impact on our economy.

[Christopher Allen @ChrisAllen0035]

@RandPaul Do you really not understand a fiat floating currency, or is this just a fun game to confuse people?

[Christopher Allen @ChrisAllen0035]

@JackPosobiec It’s as if they’ve never watched happy days; 80% of which took place in Als diner.

@DanCrenshawTX Remember when you won a race for political office?

Not to change the subject from burritos but when I was earning poverty wages in my 20s I used to go to Subway nearly every day and get a footlong Italian sub for 5 dollars. It was generally the only big meal I would eat in a day.

If I was hungry later at night, I could always swing by McDonald’s and grab a chicken sandwich for a dollar.

All of these people are screaming about “eating at home” but I basically never made meals at home in those days and I was able to get by. You used to be able to survive on low wages without making meals from scratch. If that’s not possible anymore then it’s a sign that our standard of living is declining. That’s a problem. You should care about that.

Anyway, I went to a Subway recently and that same sandwich was 13 dollars. McDonald’s, of course, doesn’t sell anything for a dollar anymore.
