For every 10,000 black people arrested for violent crime, 3 are killed
For every 10,000 white people arrested for violent crime, 4 are killed
I'm going to keep tweeting this until someone can explain to me how this is possible if there is truly pervasive racial bias in policing
Today 49% of ever Federal dollar being spent is borrowed. Think about that. Soon the government will actually be borrowing more money annual than it collects in taxes. Imagine if a household borrowed half of its annual spending. A nation is just the sum of all of its households.
This crazy idea was kicked around during the financial crisis of 2008. Since this financial crisis is worse, it just might fly. If we go down this route soon we may all need a trillion dollar coin to buy a latte at Starbucks, if they're still in business . https://t.co/iInVufMQgi
The price tag for the next stimulus bill already exceeds $2 trillion, 10% of GDP. After WWII Americans paid 3 times as much in taxes as they did before the war to pay the bill. Since this time the money will be printed instead, what if anything will the $2+ trillion actually buy?
The best thing for customers and workers is to let all over-leveraged companies go bankrupt. Eliminating debt in bankruptcy, while allowing the companies to operate, results in lower prices and higher wages. Bailouts only benefit the existing incompetent management and investors.
Here is how to turn a capitalist nation into a communist nation without a revolution: Have the central bank hold interest rates artificially low so corporation can lever up to buy back stock. Then when the bubble pops, bailout the corporations in exchange for government control.
@JumpingBen As for The children separated at the border, it is their parent’s fault they are in that position. They are using them as pawns for citizenship because they know how to beat the system. Stop virtue signaling.
@JumpingBen These issues have nothing to do with each other. You can care about the lives of the unborn, believing abortion is evil, and care about people at the border without thinking they have an inherent right to be considered citizens especially with no claim for asylum.
