Make pot illegal again

It's funny watching them admit the only way for leftists to win is to lie about their ideas

Unfortunately, eventually you have to govern and wind up like Brandon Johnson (whose net approval is statistically identical to ICE in fucking Chicago)

[Sean @SeanCMcCarthy]

@Akitti @t__mmy @2eggwhite Lol ok, typical leftist pretending to not understand the conversation

[Sean @SeanCMcCarthy]

@Akitti @t__mmy @2eggwhite Food prices are higher, and wages just went up the same amount. You obviously don't know what a non sequitur or red herring is. Back to school kid

[Sean @SeanCMcCarthy]

@PBarbicane @2eggwhite Meat is much less expensive, especially relative to wages. i.e. Pork and beef down 20% in real terms since 1930, but wages have quadrupled in real terms, so roughly 1/5 the relative cost/lb. On the same basis chicken prices are down 95% since then.

@Akitti @t__mmy @2eggwhite Touch grass kid, Americans visibly eat more than ever before

[Sean @SeanCMcCarthy]

@skiimaskguy @t__mmy @2eggwhite No difference

@2eggwhite @ii_rick57363 So you didn't watch the video? She's challenging herself to make a meal for $4 to show its possible, if she used sausage it would've been like $7 instead. Do you honestly think that's unaffordable?

[Sean @SeanCMcCarthy]

@2eggwhite @ii_rick57363 She had a budget of $4 and bought a pan worth of sausage and potato. You’re just straight up lying or didn’t watch the video

@Leonz0_o Would've been this with blue MN and lower margins:

[Sean @SeanCMcCarthy]

@AbolishTedCruz @Leonz0_o Humphrey got like 3% of the white vote in MS. Would've been identical to 1972 in the South if Wallace didn't run

[Sean @SeanCMcCarthy]

@HawkishFP @Dawggbrain @Homiedino polls of Democrats consistently find majority favorable views of socialism while the majority self-ID as liberals. You're correct that they are definitionally incompatible, but practical use of the term by Reps is similar to the practical use of the term by most Dems

[Sean @SeanCMcCarthy]

@Straturday1919 @sigmahamster2 It's a made-up concept, a pejorative description of supply-side economics born from typical leftist ignorance

[Sean @SeanCMcCarthy]

@QuahogFlats @ryanburge @razibkhan 5 wars? what?

[Sean @SeanCMcCarthy]

@betostaxes @ruallsion The US has more miles of navigable inland waterways and rivers than the rest of the world combined.

@yoav_ravid @TheMindScourge 49/50 states don’t impose a gift tax, and the federal exemption is so high it doesn’t matter for 99% of people. i.e. in my state, MA, if you die with an estate of $10m you’ll pay more than 900k in MA estate tax and $0 to the feds. give most to your kids before and you pay nothing

[Andrew Эквадор @Andrew669631]

It's 30–32% in 2025 according to the Fed's DFA, not 43%, and most of that wealth is largely theoretical anyway.

A large portion consists of stocks and private business equity. If it were forcibly redistributed equally among the entire U.S. population, it would likely lose 60–80% of its value due to the destruction of market mechanisms and trust in the system. People would end up holding shares in businesses and luxury real estate rather than large amounts of cash they could actually spend. Luxury real estate is a liability if you can't sell or rent it—and under such circumstances, you probably wouldn't be able to.

The efficiency of those businesses would likely decline by 30–70% (an estimate based on historical examples such as Venezuela). As a result, total profits could end up roughly equal to, or even lower than, what the top 1% currently pays in taxes. Those tax revenues would also disappear, meaning someone else would have to make up the difference and that would be the people.

In other words, people would gain virtually nothing from this. And that's the optimistic scenario. Reality would likely be worse.

2024 Election if only people who listed their ancestry as "American" voted

[Sean @SeanCMcCarthy]

@oloserian_8 @MorlockP Might as well throw Nurse Practitioners and CFAs in there too if they’re just making a subjective list of what a mid-wit journalist finds especially impressive. A 2-3 year masters and a difficult test is about the same hurdle a lawyer faces

[Sean @SeanCMcCarthy]

@RhymesLike10s @carbo_al @TomIannitti about as retarded a take as anyone could possibly have, and she is not "shitty" by any stretch. the alternative in ME is not to the right; it's to the left. You really think another Democrat is better than someone who votes with Trump 98% of the time?

@WolfgangHutter2 I don’t comment much since I don’t have much to contribute, but just wanted to say I miss your posts - I’ve had you on notifications for years, one of my favorite follows. I hope you’re well
