Ro Khanna is going on and on about "letting college tuition ..saddle them with a lifetime debt" He is showing no interest on how to make a degree more affordable only how to force others to pay for someone else's college expenses. What is driving up the cost of getting a degree? With the information that is readily available on the internet especially with AI assistance, why not a certification process rather than a college 'degree'.
If Senator Murphy is really for government Healthcare, Social security in old age and other social programs why is he not in the forefront in protecting those systems from fraud and corruption? Why is he not leading DOGE investigations, legislating restrictions on salaries and compensation for people managinging those programs, boldly prosecuting those who misuse funding to enrich themslves, their family members, friends and associates. Why is he not forcing full visibility in how the money is being spent, what the managers and 'workers' are getting paid and other compensations they may be receiving? If you voted for him why are you not demanding action from him. It's not only about getting more money for these programs, it is about using that funding effectively and directly for the purpose it was legislated.
@RepTedLieu If you had the power to end the shutdown immediately would you do it? You do have that power but we are still in a shutdown. Quit blaming others for your failure to act.
@BraddrofliT Dictators force other people to do their bidding. Dictators are not for justice. Dictators are selfish garbage. Good people give to charities they do not force others to give to corrupt government programs.
@RepDonBeyer Thank you for your condemnation of the Democrats shut down of the government. Keep reposting and reminding people of the damage they are doing.
@SenPeterWelch There are plenty of charities to help the poor that you and your other rich complainers can support without wasteful, corrupt government programs. Live up to you elitist, superior character and act at a the personal level consistent with Christ's teachings.
We want to work with you so keep an open mind, realize you have built in biases and offer possible solutions. To say that Trump has divided us after experiencing 4 years of Biden Democrat talks of MAGA being nazis does not encourage us to listen to you or work with you. Your future post will tell us more about what our relationship will be.
@JohnSte60283424@BraddrofliT@LWhistleton I agree with your observations but the currently changing environment with AI greatly increasing the efficiencies in producing goods and services along with an aging population having less material demands than that of a younger generation social issues need to be addressed.
Capitalism does have pitfalls that need to be addressed particularly as A I becomes more widespread. It's basic principles still make it a far, far better system for economic growth than socialism or communism. Work with us to fix problems like low wages, inflation caused by wasteful government programs, politians using their positions to make themselves, their families and associates rich running government programs...
