@NYCMayor@ZohranKMamdani This is a lie. You balanced the budget by borrowing billions from the NY state government which pushed back pension payments, so you literally took money from "the backs of hardworking people."
Don’t get it twisted.
Scott Wiener reduced the penalty for knowingly spreading HIV, made it harder to label people who have sex with minors as sex offenders, and turned CA into a trans sanctuary state, and he isn't 'left enough' anymore.
Let that sink in.
🚨 JUST IN: Gov. Ron DeSantis confirmed that after he finalizes the new budget, the red state of Florida will have SLASHED SPENDING for 4 YEARS STRAIGHT…
…Florida will have a budget less than HALF the size of New York, despite being similar in population
…and the state rainy day fund WILL BE 100% FULL and more than 3X THE SIZE from 7 years ago
FLORIDA CRUSHES IT AGAIN! 🇺🇸 ☀️
All with NO INCOME TAX and impending slashing of property taxes. Imagine that.
Restore Britain’s five step plan to end the welfare scam.
Number one.
No benefits for foreigners. Saves billions and billions every year. If a Somalian family is living on benefits in social housing funded by the British taxpayer, I wish them well. In Somalia. No discussion needed. Huge savings to be had.
Second.
The ballooning welfare bill is not solely down to foreign nationals, far from it. There are a huge number of British people taking the mick. The system is there for the taking, and they are doing exactly that. Claiming some disability or another, when there is evidently nothing wrong.
Face-to-face assessments are vital, regular and vigorous.
- Dedicated welfare fraud investigation units.
- Proper data-sharing between HMRC, DWP and local authorities.
- Automatic recovery of fraudulent claims from future earnings.
And actually through doing this, we can give proper support to those British men and women who genuinely need it. A fair, robust and compassionate approach.
Third.
A life on benefits for a healthy individual is NOT acceptable. If you can work, you must work. A few months to find a desired job is reasonable, but after that - if you want your benefit money, you will be put to work.
That is Restore Britain’s position.
Litter picking, street cleaning, gardening, scraping chewing gum off the pavement. Whatever. If it needs doing and you want the money, you’re doing it.
Random drug tests for those on benefits - if you’re getting high, the benefits stop.
Tough love.
Next.
Reintroduce the two child cap. Hardworking British parents shouldn’t have to subsidise indolence.
If you want more children, get a job.
Finally.
Tax cuts.
Raise the thresholds. Make it so that going back to work is financially rewarding. Obviously. Reward hard work, and people will do more of it. If people feel like going into work is actually worth it, they will do it. It must never pay to sit on benefits.
More training, more apprenticeships. A skilled and active workforce. Contributing, not taking. That is what we need.
A Restore Britain Government will ensure no household receives more in out-of-work benefits than the equivalent working family earns after tax.
The welfare system should protect those who cannot work, support those who fall on hard times, and help people back into employment as quickly as possible.
It should never be more attractive than work.
Restore Britain will reward contribution and ambition, not indolence and entitlement.
End the welfare scam, slash the bill, crush inflation.
By the way, do you know how the Japanese left reacted to this?
They claimed that picking up trash at the stadium is actually "harmful to society," and that Japan has a "warped belief" that people are supposed to take their trash home. lol
The best part about the Obama library is that it costs $30 and you need to show ID to get in.
It’s just… perfect Obama: hypocritical, ugly, intellectualism.
1% of people account for 63% of all violent crimes.
0.2% of people ever commit murder, and **67% of all murders**are committed by people with prior arrests
You can literally just fix crime by not tolerating people who show a history of being destructive to society.
In 1913, Congress sold you the income tax as a tiny levy on the rich. The top rate was 7 percent, and it only kicked in on income above $500,000 (roughly $15 million today). The bottom rate? One percent. They promised it would stay that way. They lied, of course, but the lie was elegant: target the millionaires, calm the working man, then expand the definition of "millionaire" until it includes a plumber in Ohio.
By 1918, five years later, the top rate hit 77 percent. Five years. The "temporary" emergency of the First World War gave the state its excuse, and the state never gives an excuse back. Once you accept that Washington owns a percentage of your labor, the only question left is which percentage, and that question gets answered every April by people who have never met you and never will.
Income tax is a claim on your time. When the government takes 24 percent of what you earn, it takes roughly three months of your working year and assigns that labor to itself. You work January through March for the Treasury. Call that what it is. A man forced to work for another man without pay has a word in the dictionary, and it is not "citizen."
Free market thinkers spotted the trick a century ago. Frank Chodorov wrote a whole book on it, "The Income Tax: Root of All Evil," published in 1954, and his argument has aged better than the dollar has. The tax requires you to confess your entire financial life to the state and prove your innocence on demand. No warrant. No suspicion. Just compliance, backed by liens, wage garnishment, and the polite threat of armed men. The IRS now employs more people than the FBI, ATF, and DEA combined.
You were told 1913 was the beginning of a fairer system. It was the beginning of a permanent one. Nothing the government touches stays small, and nothing it calls temporary ever ends.
When I got arrested for Nazi Pug, I got held in jail until my court date due to the "serious nature" of my "offence".
But the guy who threw a toddler into a crocodile enclosure to try and have him ripped limb from limb has already been bailed the very next day.
Clown country.
Again, you may not like the UFC thing at the White House, but the moment you hung a giant pride flag from the columns and had half-naked “trans” activists exposing themselves on the lawn, you lost all right to complain about desecration.
We hear it as consumption. But it's almost all for allocation. This is a huge issue we need to get past.
Name anyone you would rather see allocate 1T+.
Well done.
