A fierce proponent of personal responsibility, Austrian economics, and mortal enemy of identity politics, equality of outcome, and group-based diversity.
@RichardAngwin Social security is NOT redistributed capital. It is repayment of money the recipient unwillingly loaned to the government for a zero return on investment. That’s literally the opposite of socialism. Medicare is the same. We pay a lot in over years and get little in return.
@PatsyDiabetes Listen Karen, you cannot point to single bit of data that informs that masks do anything except increase CO2 levels in the wearer. I invite you to drive on your next trip during which you can sit alone in your car wearing a mask. Why stop at one? Wear three!
@SenSchumer I thought for a minute that your niece, the unfunny Amy, was ghost writing your posts. You know, sarcasm is the wit of the witless. But then I realized that you are being serious here. Early onset…
The reason why health insurance is so expensive is because when the government subsidizes a private product or service with taxpayer dollars, the price goes up to match the amount of the government subsidy.
Obamacare did this. Democrats did this.
No subsidy during the shutdown means that the grossly inflated premium bill goes to YOU, because the health insurance cartel sure as Hell ain't going to forego those enormous profits just because the federal government shut down for a few weeks.
THAT is the lesson all Americans should be learning.
What everyone should learn from this Schumer Shutdown is that Democrat policies are the EXACT REASON why health insurance costs so much.
Remember folks: the Obamacare legislation was LITERALLY DRAFTED by the health insurance cartel.
(And OBTW, the exact same economic dynamic is at work with inflated college tuition and non-dischargeable, federally-guaranteed student loans.)
Have you looked around? Our economy is being restored, armed conflicts around the world are being stopped, the long ignored imbalances in our global trade have been resolved, illegals have stopped pouring into our country, deportations of criminally inclined illegals are being carried out, violent crime is being addressed in our cities. Literally nothing in your post is true. Have you had a psychotic break?
This post is sets a new standard for absolute inaccuracy. Obama made everything about race, relentlessly sold the “oppressed v. oppressors” and then ensured this neo Marxist narrative was embedded deep within every facet of government. Four of the same from whoever was running the country during the Biden administration. President Trump is now undoing it all. He’s focused on peace, peaceful trading, and the elevation of every person in America. He’s reversing years of middle-class decline in America by bringing Manufacturing back to our shores. What have you done for our country?
@grey4626 @TheAtlantic@AdamSerwer I have no idea who this @grey4626 is but I might be smitten in a literary sense. It’s almost like Tom Robbins (RIP) lost his leftist bent and came back for one last grand, scalpel edged literary harpooning. Well done.
@jk_rowling This post needed to be written and you wrote it well. I often find myself debating with people who have never known want. It’s a nearly impossible task.
@DrNeilStone I don’t know you nor do I make a habit of making uncharitable public comments about anyone. I do wonder, in the face of the mounting evidence, how you can make such a post as this one. It’s simply beyond understanding.
@StephenKing First, your books are not banned. Why would you say that they are? Second, your acumen for writing entertaining stories is legendary. Spewing vitriolic political nonsense only serves to lessen the esteem that you have earned.
Is it just me, or does anyone else find it noteworthy that the Kirk assassin made a 200 yard shot with absolute accuracy, then had the plan for a “drop zone” for his rifle so that he could recover it later? The video of him jumping off the roof shows the form of someone taught how to do that without breaking a leg or ankle. I find that odd.
@SenWarren You are bending stats by hijacking the start date. And you’re betting most people will not look into that by looking at the chart. Shame on you.
@DoctorHenryCT Let me see if I understand you properly. Your position is that if we make guns illegal to own, then crime will be reduced because criminals will obey the law?
