U80

Common sense is out there, even in different view points.
We can disagree and still be cool.
Unite the 80%.

[U80 @GB2CS]

We’re dividing. Segregating. This is the build up. The next 20 years will completely change this country (or to-be 2 countries).

- Both sides have always gerrymandered

- Both sides are now extremely gerrymandering, believing they have to because the other side is

- Blue states are back-door trying to make the electoral college not relevant.

- SCOTUS is heavy red, heavily favoring the GOP

- Blue states are poised to ignore SCOTUS because of it

- States (both sides) pass there own laws directing their law enforcement to ignore federal laws when federal agencies are in command by the opposite party

- Representation will be fully partisan in a couple of years

- This will be too much for voters. Red voters in fully blue controlled and gerrymandered states will move to red states. Blue state voters will do the same to blue states

Willful segregation.

- Intra-state coalitions will be formed (trade, economic frameworks, shared resources, ignoring federal regs, laws, rulings, etc.)

- Strength will be in numbers: the more states who join the coalition, the less of a threat the other side (or federal) will be.

- Congressional (legislative) laws will be ignored (they have no power to enforce)

- Judicial laws will be ignored (they have no power to enforce)

- Executive enforcement can only be ignored (they have enforcement power and bodies), once coalitions are built enough to withstand.

- Executive branch enforcement will be limited to what the current party in power feels like enforcing. No one standard across the board.

- Political opponents will be targeted executively, but protected by the state coalitions.

- Eventually, deep blue and deep red states will be fully populated as such, easily noticeable boundaries between the two major sides.

- State coalitions will stop their residents from paying federal taxes, protecting them legally and physically

- Trade deals between coalitions and supporting foreign entities will commence.

- The power of the combined 3 branches of government will become obsolete on a large scale.

- Lines will be drawn, the split will be on

None of this would require any actual secession from anyone one state. Nor any real shots fired.

The US splits, naturally, slowly, figuratively at first then literally, until there’s two ruling sides.

It’s breaking.

[U80 @GB2CS]

Correct. No one thinks actual people who are trans want to hurt women.

It’s ill-intended men who will use the identity of trans to get access to to women’s spaces

It’s like, 99.999% of gun owners won’t sh**t up a school but because some person somewhere will, you want to ban guns in school, right?

[U80 @GB2CS]

You’ve had 2 years to do it all.

You didn’t.

Don’t pretend all of a sudden you’re gonna do ANYTHING AT ALL in a month and a half with holidays mixed in.

You have been the worst senator in the history of this country.

And the 119th Congress has been the most do nothing in history.

[U80 @GB2CS]

@EricLDaugh They’ve had 2 years to do all this. Please don’t believe for a second now they’ll do it in month and half with the holidays mixed in.

[U80 @GB2CS]

@AlaskanCourtney She herself won’t allow this to happen. They’ve had 2 years to do this.

[U80 @GB2CS]

@EricLDaugh They’ve had 2 years to do this. @RepMaryMiller is full of sh**

[U80 @GB2CS]

@designideas0 Even added the cuck chairs

[U80 @GB2CS]

@WalshFreedom Why? Makes no logical sense, man.

1. Money already spent to build it

2. Dem administrations will get to use it as well

3. The cost to tear it down just for the sake of it could be better used elsewhere (child cancer, etc.)

What would be the point?

[U80 @GB2CS]

This is the part that needs to be addressed.

Take away all the profits of insurance company, lowers premiums by a few bucks a month for each individual.

The actual problem is the cost of the care.

The only way to make it more affordable (universal care or not), is to lower the payouts for each bill code doctors submit.

And there’s pros and cons to that like everything else.

[U80 @GB2CS]

@DisbldUrbanFarm @karlykingsley This study is about increasing the amount for people already on snap.

I support that 100%

My point is about people on SNAP that shouldn’t be. My wife and I make over 200k a year, for example. We should not be offered SNAP in any capacity.

[U80 @GB2CS]

No, they haven’t defrauded anything. When they noticed it still got funded, they called and had it stopped.

The point is, many didn’t. Even after going back to work and making enough $ to buy food.

SNAP should be for people who TRULY need it. People who can’t earn, can’t provide food for themselves.

[U80 @GB2CS]

@HotmerRobin @karlykingsley Yes, YOU should be getting more. People who are no 74, are not disabled, that make $65k a years, shouldn’t be taking up SNAP funding that should be going to people like you who need it.

[U80 @GB2CS]

My sister and her husband were making ~$160k (household) and they both lost their jobs when the pandemic hit.

They were eligible (with job loss) for SNAP.

After almost 11 months, both of them were back to work, making over $150k

Their SNAP kept getting funded every month. They had to call and ask to be removed from snap because they don’t need it anymore.

And this isn’t just anecdotal. Look up the numbers. 10s of millions of people were added to snap benefits when the pandemic hit

And those 10s of millions have remained on it even now - even after the pandemic, after unemployment got back down to normal numbers (so they were back to work), even after median household income hit $82k, the highest ever and the economy recovered.

There are millions on snap who need it - great! They should get it and more of it so it covers the cost of food.

But there are millions still on it that don’t actually need it anymore. And they should be off it.

It was the same with Medicaid for my sister and her hubby. They got authorized for it upon job loss and just continued having it once back to work.

In fact, they were told don’t call and cancel it. Might as well use it in conjunction with their employer insurance.

@greendragonhq @libsoftiktok If someone commits murder, they should be found guilty.

Unfortunately for him, he’s a legal citizen, so he had to pay for his criminality.
If he was illegal, he’d have never had a trial.

Nice to see Massachusetts sees a fetus as an unborn child, too.

[U80 @GB2CS]

@DisbldUrbanFarm @karlykingsley I guess you guys can’t read because that’s not what I said.

I even said make sure there’s $ for the ones that truly need it

[U80 @GB2CS]

@karlykingsley Not what I said at all

[U80 @GB2CS]

@DaaChazz Welll, your last sentence is the point and why people are against it.

Banks WON’T be lending to everyone anymore. Will only lend to good credit folks that can afford it

The ability for every day folks to get a credit card or borrow in a pinch will be gone.

[U80 @GB2CS]

Well.. that's IF he's a Franchise QB. I was hoping he'd have a 2024 type year. At least that would justify paying $60 mil+ this next off-season.

Now we have to analyze - Are the struggles on him, or the coach? The OC? The schedule? lack of talent around him?

Or are those just excuses we're making because we want to believe he's a franchise QB?

Would the offense be any different today, if it was Josh Allen or Pat Mahomes as the QB? What if it was Jameis Winston or Tyler Shough?

Would the team be that much better or worse?

[U80 @GB2CS]

We should be allowed to have HSA's, but for real.

Instead of paying medical premiums, a portion of my check (tax free) goes into my individual HSA, to use when I go to the doctor, paying ourt of pocket.

The HSA should then be allowed to charge a fee (by choice if I/one wants) for catastrophic insurance.

Like life insurance. $100/mo for $200,000 coverage.

Like life insurance, that fee, if you choose to sign up for it, is not usable by you on the regular basis. Just a paid out benefit if one day needed. Never get thar $ back if you don't.

But the individual HSA that you pay "premiums" into IS used regularly. And YOU set the amount.

Rarely see a doctor? Maybe you only put $100/mo into it.

Go regularly? You put more. Either way, YOU decide how much goes to your "premium" and if you need to pay more later, you can.

Tax free to encourage people to save for healthcare needs.

[U80 @GB2CS]

@dandinohill They won’t take 2028.

Because they’ll spend the next 2 years going after republicans, instead of trying to deliver on the fake policy promises they convinced all the voters were real, easy and affordable.

They’ve put themselves in a tough spot this midterm.
