@KFOX14 If only our government, including Acevado, was as transparent and honest as our energy industry. Maybe "leaders" like Acevado should lead a life with ZERO oil products. Maybe he could show us how wonderful life is with zero oil or gas.

@bofrench @JackPosobiec All you have to do is imagine the response if a white male did this, and you can see how evil we've become.

@FuentesUpdates Isn't this all religions? You take a book that's filled with countless contradictions and stories and tell other people how they should be interpreted. And then you say "God Said This" and point at whichever phrase is most convenient.

Rome handed out free grain to 40,000 citizens in 73 BC. By 46 BC, Julius Caesar found 320,000 people lining up for their monthly ration. That eight-fold expansion happened in under three decades, and it shows you how welfare states actually grow.

No Roman senator stood up and announced a plan to addict a third of the city to government bread. It happened incrementally, through political competition. Each magistrate who wanted votes expanded eligibility. Each expansion normalized the next one. The citizen who once considered the dole shameful eventually expected it, then demanded it, then organized politically to protect it.

This is the core mechanism free market thinkers have identified across every era: once you create a transfer program, you create a constituency for that program. Recipients vote. Administrators build careers. Grain merchants who supply the state develop a stake in keeping the contracts flowing. The political economy locks in.

Caesar, to his credit, actually cut the rolls back to 150,000 through verification audits. It was one of his more economically coherent moves, though the Senate still murdered him. His successors quietly let the numbers climb again.

What did the dole require? Massive grain imports from Sicily, Sardinia, and Egypt, organized through state logistics at state expense, funded by taxation and conquest. When the conquest revenue dried up, the obligation remained. Rome had written a check against future military success, and future military success eventually failed to arrive.

The lesson is not complicated. Distribute a benefit and you distribute dependency. Distribute dependency and you distribute political power to whoever controls the distribution. The grain dole didn't weaken Rome overnight, but it made every subsequent reform politically impossible.

Sorry, but 'Daddy' was an inveterate plagiarist, flagrant adulterer, communist symp, and scoffer of the religion he claimed to preach.

He can be your guide and model. Not mine, thank you.

@Rebel5556 @KFOX14 How so?

@jeebusmcchrist @DoDeportations Almost everything starting with the 14th amendment is questionable.

[welostall @welostall]

@DoDeportations I noticed this too.

[welostall @welostall]

@KFOX14 Ah. They ait the bait.

Women and minorities, together, are consistently telling White men they will not rest until killing us and killing our children is legal and okay. https://t.co/HCQMeNYPHv

[welostall @welostall]

@GuntherEagleman Pretty sure we all know this has been going on at every level of our government our entire lives. More political posturing, government will do nothing to stop their gravy train.

[welostall @welostall]

@KFOX14 They won't be happy unless there are no consequences to steal, kill, rape anything they want.

Women demand the rights of a man, but the agency and responsibilities of a child.

This just blew my mind. The Governor of Texas just informed me that HE can deport illegals immedeately, without waiting on the Feds to do it.

Here's how under SB 4....

-Authorizes every law enforcement officer in Texas to arrest anyone who has crossed the border illegally.

-Allows the state to deport those individuals.

-Gives Texas the current capability to do the above independently.

-Has been cleared for full enforcement by the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals after legal challenges.

-Ban incentives like free healthcare and hiring of illegals.

Every state needs to adopt this law @GregAbbott_TX

@KTSMtv EPISD told us what was important when they built themselves a multimillion dollar building downtown.

[welostall @welostall]

@thatvillainjay Congrats!

[welostall @welostall]

@MaryBowdenMD Texas has been consistently voting GOP every single time, my entire life. The entire time, they've done the same things and made the same mistakes as liberals. Why can't the GOP do the opposite of liberals, and actually do what we want? Help me understand.

This is behind a paywall, but you can get the jist. Professional fund managers mostly perform poorly, historically.
