“Guys, stealing money from successful people can pay for all of the unsuccessful people to continue being unsuccessful!”
Communist idiots like this douchebag are the worst kind of evil.
5% of $1 trillion is $50 billion.
there are 19.3 million US college students right now.
$50bn/19.3 million = $2,591 per student currently in school.
average college tuition is $38,270
so, that would pay for 7% of 1 year, about 2 weeks of education for just those already in school.
it's a sad day when even the kleptocrats are mathematically illiterate...
The worlds first trillionaire and the left are in complete meltdown. Brilliant achievement for that reason alone.
Congratulations to the legend Elon Musk. If you think he is retarded, you're retarded.
(Exemptions apply for self deprecation)
It’s a good thing for humanity that Elon is a trillionaire because he can allocate capital more efficiently than the socialists who would try confiscate his assets
@RoKhanna Why hasn’t your wife donated all of her family wealth? You can live a nice life off of the bond yield of 5 million. Why not show leadership and divest yourselves of the “vulgar wealth” you have access to?
men look at the accomplishments of great men in awe. they feel proud, inspired, and want to be great as well. parasites rub their greedy little insect hands together and say "that's mine." ro khanna is a parasite.
I know this is going to be hard for a retard like you to understand, but Elon doesn’t take a salary so he doesn’t have “income tax” like the rest of us.
He pays capital gains taxes when he sells shares, and he has paid more taxes than most people ever dream of.
In 2021, for example, he paid nearly $12 billion in taxes.
Also, ratio.
@DarrigoMelanie We spend hundreds of billions of $$$ per year on free food and housing benefits for poor people in the USA.
Most of it is wasted on "non-profits" which have turned into money laundering operations for Democrats.
It is not a lack of funding issue. It is a Democrat theft issue.
@JoeSquawk still impressed by overall quality of Trump cab picks. What a difference from Biden admin. Competent people can have an impact. Amusing to see Andy trying to something to critisize.
John Thune is lying.
He needs 50 votes plus VP Vance to pass the Save America Act.
All he needs to do is force a “Talking Filibuster”.
No Senate rule changes.
No nuking the Filibuster.
He isn’t powerless.
He doesn’t need to find votes.
He needs to not be a traitor.
Truth.
I'm going to have to break with NRO on this because I fundamentally disagree with this sentence from the editorial:
"...Trump’s unworthy and abusive campaign to investigate and prosecute his political opponents."
Trump didn't make these individuals his "political opponents" -- that reverses the causation.
The fact that individuals launch misguided and/or illegitimate efforts at a sitting President, or at an individual out of office with an intent to run for office again, does NOT then become provide them with a cloak of immunity from their own potential criminal behavior.
To dismiss all the investigations as "retribution" - and declare them illegitimate based on that label -- is de facto immunity they purchased for themselves by going first.
The cautionary tale in this is as follows:
Do not employ the criminal justice system as a political tool to stymie the implementation of policies you disagree with after losing an election.
Political motives should not provide protection from an investigation as to whether your own conduct was, in fact, legal.
