My kid's school asked me to donate supplies.
Paper. Pencils. Hand sanitizer. Tissues.
I pay property taxes.
My state has a $4 billion surplus.
The federal education budget is $238 billion.
And the teacher is buying pencils out of her own paycheck.
And I'm sending in Ziploc bags.
We fund stadiums for billionaires with public money.
We fund schools with bake sales.
And then blame teachers when test scores drop.
If capitalism is so great, why do corporations need so many tax breaks, subsidies, exemptions, grants, legal protections, bailouts, and trade protections?
When citizens need these things, why is it socialism?
@UncleBuckbroken@jke1977@CStanOnX@RealEmirHan If you study martial arts and come to the conclusion that it's about who can beat the other opponent bloody for views, then I think you are the one who needs to study more. I'm done arguing opinions with you.
@UncleBuckbroken@jke1977@CStanOnX@RealEmirHan I do realize that. MMA as it stands currently is just a few kicks/punches and then grappling. Everyone saw Grace back in the day and gave up on any other style. It isn't really mixed martial arts anymore. Which is why I said it's stupid.
@UncleBuckbroken@jke1977@CStanOnX@RealEmirHan That is a serious assumption. If MMA was around when they were active, who is to say they wouldn't have learned and been great at it. The person I replied to claimed "MMA is actually real" as if Karate is not real.
@TheEXECUTlONER_ If you take a defensive driving course, it will tell you he is correct. I used to get pissed when people did that, but it turns out I was wrong.
