@sjstill@JamesTate121 We pay for these services with tax money. How do you feel about the government taking your home for someone in “greater need”, AKA rent freezes?
@JamesTate121@LeslieMarshall We pay into social security throughout our working lives just like a IRA or 401k. How dies this relate to the confiscation of private enterprise by the state?
Germany's Chancellor Merz:
We can no longer accept the extraordinarily high levels of sick leave in our companies.
We are abolishing sick leave by telephone and introducing the requirement to submit a medical certificate from the very first day of illness.
We know this is a tough decision. But we can no longer afford this competitive disadvantage caused by prolonged absences from work.
The Democratic establishment deserves a slow clap here.
Really. Bravo.
They spent years building the perfect little political terrarium: NGOs, activist salaries, university grievance factories, donor cash, media protection, blue-city patronage, “equity” rackets, and taxpayer-funded do-gooder laundromats all humming along under the sacred banner of “Our Democracy.”
Then they looked at the radicals crawling around inside and said, “Surely these people will remain manageable.”
Absolutely brilliant, guys.
Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries now look like substitute teachers trying to take attendance during a prison riot. The donors are sweating through their custom suits. The consultants are pretending this is just a “messaging challenge.” The media is polishing the same old turd and calling it “youth energy.”
No, champ. This is not youth energy.
This is the bill.
You told them America was evil.
You told them capitalism was theft.
You told them police were the enemy.
You told them borders were immoral.
You told them every institution had to be “decolonized,” “reimagined,” or burned down and rebuilt by people with sociology degrees and untreated rage.
Now they believe you.
And worse, they want promotions.
That is the humiliation. The party bosses thought they were renting radicals by the hour. Turns out the radicals thought they were being trained to run the place.
Democrats built the hive, fed the hive, defended the hive, and called anyone who noticed a conspiracy theorist.
Now the hive has the keys.
Enjoy the buzzing.

President Trump is CLOWNING on Democrats for electing communists 🤣
"I think I'd be the greatest Communist in HISTORY. I'd give free rent.
'Ladies and gentlemen, from now on, you don't have to pay ANY rent.'
'From now on, anybody who wants a house, don't worry about it! Just pick the house you want!'
'Everybody gets free food! Everything is FREE!'
'From this point forward, everyone is going to vote for me.'"
"The problem is, after two or three years [of communism], the country is a DISASTER AREA!"
"That first year, boy, you're the most popular. It's happening right now in New York and California. But you'll start living in SQUALOR."
As a liberal progressive, I would be fine with the party moving left if these wins were about Medicare for all, reproductive rights, universal childcare, taxing billionaires, and creating affordable housing, But they weren’t.
