@ok_post_guy No. Subsidies do lower prices. Food stamps do not, as they increase demand while not impacting supply. These are both funded and managed by the USDA, but are not the exact same thing. It’s ok to admit you have no idea
@fabianatmelia “Meal” means different things to different people. Generally when people say you don’t need more than 1-2, they mean full meals. It doesn’t mean you should only eat 1-2 times a day max. It is far more likely people choose to eat too much in a day than choose not to eat enough.
@Colin_d_m It isn’t always about rehabilitating the offender but about prevention of similar incidents by others. If no consequences for one, there is no fear by another. Punishment as a deterrent is not always meant only for the offender.
@ReemAmirIbrahim Why do Europeans write the DAY before the MONTH?
It makes no sense.
See how that works? Neither “makes sense” if it is different than what you are used to.
@gnuman1979 Only if you don’t understand, at all, what PPP “loans” were and why they were distributed through banks as loans with the understanding they would be forgiven.
@soigomaa You are able to deduct the expenses you incur to perform your job also, as well as mortgage interest, donations, local taxes, and other itemized deductions. Or you can use the standard deduction. You aren’t able to deduct the expenses you incur to be alive.
@Emeliarjl @RepFine His was a dumb post, but this is no better. At least understand the context before spouting off - in no way did his post compare humans to dogs.
@paulg@Jason When telling people how to write well, pay extra attention to make sure you don’t make basic grammatical mistakes, cutting your own credibility.
*too
@joshuarolson What a perfect post to sum up the high intellect with which the modern left views themselves while possessing not even a basic understanding of the world.
@BiatchDulce Ad valorem taxes, far more than you. If they “live off the loan”, how do you think they pay the loan payments? No income, but they have cash flowing in? This whole argument oversimplifies and vastly misstates the entire concept, all for you to make a point not based in reality.
@BiatchDulce They pay tax on their income just like you do. Any realized gain is taxed - at a higher rate than you are taxed more than likely. They aren’t taxed on some of their assets - just like you are not taxed on some of your assets. They pay property tax - like you, but far more.
