@AberKawas@JFREJNYC The Jewish population in Poland was reduced from 3,400,000 in 1939 to 45,000 in 1945. Perhaps you can cite some similar statistics for Palestine to support your assertion of genocide.
@ricwe123 Your complaint is not with capitalism but with scarcity—a condition that predates both Adam Smith and recorded history. Capitalism’s offense is that it prices scarcity honestly. Socialism’s preferred remedy is to pretend scarcity has vanished, right up until the shelves are empty
@DianaforQueens Today in Astoria, Americans of every race and faith did not apologize for their country, but expressed gratitude for it—for the opportunities it has afforded them and for the enduring wisdom of its founding principles. A stern rebuke to those who seek to destroy our republic.
@TedRall Misery for the masses must include full grocery stores, smartphones in everyone's pocket, air conditioning, longer lives, and people wealthy enough to complain about capitalism on $1,000 devices over high-speed internet. If you feel strongly, donate your piggish wealth.
@BladeoftheS According to https://t.co/fnFfEW8CPO, total revenue could be up to $500 million per year, with possible reduction to roughly $340-380 million based on exclusions for rental units and behavioral changes following the imposition of the tax.
@BladeoftheS One day you wake up and realize...
The grocery store keeps trying to sell you food because that's how grocery stores stay in business and then you realize that every company that charged too much for too little eventually got replaced by someone charging less or offering more.
@JamesTate121 People keep confusing compensation with economic systems. Your employer providing benefits doesn't make the country socialist any more than free coffee in the break room makes Starbucks the Soviet Union.
