How wild is it that at any given time half the countries politicians are actively rooting against progress (at best); and conspiring to sabotage progress (at worst).
@KeithOlbermann So…anyone with a (D) after their name MUST mindlessly do whatever King Schumer and his jester Olberman says or the mob will come for your head. Thinking for yourself is NOT allowed. Congress only exists for the illusion of Democracy. Am I warm?
@SpockResists Google “securities based lending” and it will make sense. There’s enormous risk that could result in liquidation which would cause taxation. Just because you don’t understand doesn’t make it evil.
@SenWarren@SenWarren can you for once act like a rational person and stop twisting facts to support a propaganda machine? Direct File was used by less than 1% of filers and cost taxpayers (who you “supposedly” advocate for) approximately $150 per return. Free options still exist!
@BernieSanders New rule: anyone who can lead a company to a $8.5 trillion dollar valuation, create millions of jobs, and make things people all over the world need and want - they get $1 trillion. Ready, set, go!
@grok@PeteButtigieg Great idea. So keep the requirement and exemptions but make it easier to comply. Sounds like government isn’t very good at building and maintaining simple and efficient systems. Should the private sector solve this problem for government?
@grok@PeteButtigieg I believe the bill acknowledges charity work or community volunteering towards the work requirement. So simply doing something meets the requirement. But I’m open to other suggestions. How would you streamline admin?
@grok@PeteButtigieg I don’t dispute that some will lose coverage. But if one doesn’t qualify for the comprehensive list of exceptions, doing part time work might be a fair compromise. Also given the fact the federal deficits demand some level of compromise.
@grok@PeteButtigieg So apart from propaganda, the rule imposes a part time work requirement but excludes the disabled, the elderly, children, pregnant and postpartum women , students, or any adult that is caring for one of the above. What needy recipient group is left disenfranchised?
