No prior generation had to give up all other joys in life to buy a home.
They had phones. They watched tv and movies. They ate at restaurants. They traveled. They drove new cars. They went to bars with friends. They drank and smoked constantly.
To pretend otherwise is absurd.
Shes in a room full of billionaires and she’s using that opportunity to tell them that they’re hoarding wealth, and yall are mad? This is real activism
I'm kind of an absent friend like i will love you with my whole heart and go out of my way to give you any help you need but I tend to live in my own world and suck at keeping up communication and I'm really sorry to anyone who takes that personally.
Holy hell. For the love of everything American I’m going to take a deep breath and respond to this absolute dribble.
I pay taxes. YOU pay taxes. WE pay taxes.
The idea that American tax dollars should go towards the improvement of American lives is NOT socialism.
I have not ONCE advocated for the government to assume control of the means of production and equally spread those resources amongst the populace.
THAT is socialism.
FFS I am literally advocating for tax levels to be where they were before Reagan came in with his trickle down bull SHIT and gutted the working class.
The billionaires are NOTHING without us. They leverage our resources, our energy, our labor and our LIVES.
Not ONCE have I asked for or advocated for an equal distribution of wealth.
On God, we are just SICK of giving every single thing we have to offer to the oligarchs and going bankrupt with a single cancer diagnosis.
We pay everything and get NOTHING.
The dam is breaking. And comments like THIS only serve as a reminder that propaganda WORKS.
You fucking idiots took emails of Hillary Clinton ordering pizza and turned them into a child trafficking scheme, but you’re perfectly fine with Donald Trump being best friends with the most notorious sex trafficker of our time.
American says 15 years ago he bought this home for $130k. He worked for years rebuilding it from bad condition, putting over $120k worth of repairs into it
The city just reassessed his property value, his property taxes are tripling and he can’t afford his home anymore. “They come along and reassess it, my taxes are going to triple, and I did all that work on my own. I busted my ass inside and out, landscaping, f*cking roof, gutted half the place.
It's getting to the point where I can't even afford to buy. Live in a house that I bought almost 15 years ago. The price of everything has doubled. Vehicles double, you know the deal. Groceries double, insurances double, including vehicle insurance.”
personally I'd love to have a kid but:
- no maternity leave
- no healthcare
- U.S. cost of living is way too high
- climate change unaddressed
- rampant fascism
how does anyone bring a child into this world under these circumstances?
This isn't hard:
Donald NEVER releases anything negative about his own health.
He won't even release the truth about his height and weight.
Admitting an illness to distract from Epstein files must mean the files are very bad indeed.
