The problem with the welfare state and its confiscatory taxation system is that there are ZERO repercussions if politicians steal your money "legally" and squander it accordingly. Any system that decouples the natural link between causes and effects will lead to disaster. This is why what starts off as a small temporary levying of taxes more than 100 years ago becomes the tax code that we see today. Politicians do not view an individual's hard-earned money as theirs to keep. Rather they view your money as something that they allow you to keep a small portion of. Accordingly, you should be "thankful" that the government allows you to keep any of your money. This "proves" that they are kind and empathetic. It is a complete moral inversion of personal agency, liberty, and freedom. No system should take so much taxes from you that it forces you to work 10 extra years to make up for what was taken from you.
On one side of the Reflecting Pool there’s the MSM claiming that the algae is still there, on another side leftists are protesting to bring the algae back, and on another side leftists are trying to vandalize the pool.
TDS needs to be officially classified as a mental disorder.
Dear Democrats:
Your obsession with the wealth of Elon Musk, a private citizen is deranged. Especially when you have no comment on the billions of dollars in fraud of taxpayer money in your states, like Minnesota.
You look insane and normal people see it.
Please allow me to be approximately the 250,000th X user to express outrage that you seem completely unconcerned about the approximately 250,000 English girls raped by the rape gangs you and Labor imported.
Actress @PatriciaHeaton shared a post asking why “members of Congress are more upset that @ElonMusk became a trillionaire than they are that Somalis have defrauded our government.”
“Can someone please explain it to me like I’m five,” the post reads.
God bless Patricia & Elon.
No, President Trump is NOT keeping the Qatar-gifted Boeing 747 (the interim “new Air Force One”) as personal property.
He’s not taking the jet, moron! It belongs to the United States Air Force, dumbass. It’s a “bridge” aircraft designed to provide an AF-1 for this president, and FUTURE presidents, until Boeing can produce a new one (which they are years behind). Certainly a “senator” would know that.
You’ve been selling this lie for months.
How do people like you get elected to anything?
The fact that every politician’s post on this website about anything financial is at the intelligence level of a baked potato does not inspire confidence in government as a capital allocator. If you think confiscating slightly more $ will fix any problems, you’re as dumb as them
People are astoundingly stupid. My comments about the departure tax is not that I should be treated differently from anyone else. I am making a point about the extent to which taxes are confiscatory. As I have previously explained, there was a time when ZERO cents of income tax were levied in Canada and the US. Then bit by bit, that "temporary" measure, to be applied to only a few, and at a very low percentage rate of your income, becomes a mammoth monster that takes more than 50% of your earnings. It can occur because there are no repercussions if governments do not balance their budgets (other than voting them out). Hence, what starts off as a small temporary tax on a few becomes an existential theft that is orders of magnitude larger than the so-called illegal extortion tax of the Mafia. It can exist only because the great majority of people BENEFIT from this form of parasitic taxation. But someone has to pay for everyone else, and when you are that someone, you are not necessarily pleased to be funding the ultimate Ponzi scheme. I'm making a moral, philosophical, and ethical argument. It's not just about me.
BREAKING: The three major U.S. broadcast networks, ABC, CBS, and NBC, have yet to report on DNI Tulsi Gabbard’s recent declassification regarding Anthony Fauci’s cover-up of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Juneteenth is great because it’s a day we can all take a moment and remember that republicans marched in and forced democrats to stop enslaving people 🫶🏼
The US government has spent $67 Trillion during the time you’ve been in office, but if we can just hurt one more great American innovator everything will be fine
RE: The Reflecting Pool
Let's review a few undeniable, irrefutable facts about this subject:
1. The Reflecting Pool on the National Mall has been a leaking, algae-overgrown mess for years.
2. Having a national monument in such disrepair reflects poorly on our nation.
3. President Trump saw these problems and decided America deserved better for our 250th Birthday, and has been trying to resolve those problems in time for July 4th.
4. Democrats everywhere want the repair efforts to fail.
*******************
These are FACTS people, not my opinion.
FACTS.
So what logical conclusion do all these facts lead to?
Simple.
***Democrats would rather see the United States of America fail than see President Donald J. Trump succeed.***
Democrats are not patriots. They do not care about our nation or our national pride.
They only care about power, and to achieve power they would destroy our nation if that was what they deemed necessary.
It's basically the same ethos that caused them to burn down our cities in 2020 rather than see Trump win a second term.
I really do not see how it is possible to coexist with these people unless they change.
We are 10 years into Trump Derangement Syndrome, and CNN has finally found its final boss: pool algae?! Sending reporters to take water samples of the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool is a level of mental illness only the mainstream media could achieve.
*And here’s a final point that will really bake your noodle.
Any vaccine they invented thru the research on the virus they created in the Chinese lab would not work well against the naturally occurring virus that they said they feared so much might someday jump from bats to people.
Such a vaccine would only be a good match… and profitable for manufacturers…if the precise coronavirus they engineered in the lab somehow got released into the public.
