Amazon needs cheap workers so the Democrats are just doing their bidding. It’s that simple.

I hated Trump’s narcissism and some of his behavior.
But sadly it took a N.Y. narcissist and bully to get Moderator cut: profanity done and show the wimpy republicans how to fight back against the perverse crazy democrats and their corrupt media. He challenged the democrats anti-American agenda and negative ideology with MAGA and made “patriotism “ an acceptable word again…..

An analogy i heard:

You are in the hospital with a life threatening illness. You need life saving surgery. Theres 2 doctors available to do your surgery. One is loved by everyone but has pending malpractice lawsuits. The other has a abrasive personality, rubs everyone the wrong way but is considered the best available and a expert at this surgery.

Who do you want?

Where I would agree with liberals is universal health care (total overhaul of our health system vis a vis UK or Canada style), green energy and EV transformation, upgraded infrastructure, higher taxes including wealth tax.

I would support upgraded education systems but I don't think liberals want that, they're happier with re-education centers to train compliant racists. I'm supportive of actual education in the basics of reading, writing, math, science, history, economics and music....oh and nutrition, we eat horribly as a nation.
What percent of all federal income taxes should the top 10% pay? Should they pay 100%? Should the bottom 90% pay nothing?

I'd like to hear your optimal percentages, a direct answer w/o deflecting to any other topic, or tax.

61% of American paid NO federal income taxes. Should this be higher? If so, what % should pay none?

I've asked this question many times, & you have the opportunity to be the 1st to provide a direct answer.

p.s. should the top 10% pay for everyone's Universal Healthcare? Explain who should pay what.

You are assuming the "wimpy Republicans" want to fight back against the "perverse crazy Democrats" on the basis of implementing their policies.

You are also assuming they want to "get sh$t done" for American citizens.

I respectfully disagree with both assumptions.

IMHO...the political parties are fighting each other for control, power, & self enrichment...nothing more.

Politicians are all corrupt egomaniacs, & they ghosted/cancelled all of us about 200 years ago.

We are all living on a false premise that we matter to them, and that America matters to them.

That's the problem. I don't like the Dem's spending package either. It doesn't help the people who need it most. Period.



I live in a blue state which has been like living in a prison for almost 2 years. Just when our statewide mask mandate is suspended by the governor our municipal government initiates their own. I'm not a covid cultist or a greenie. I'd definitely vote Republican in the future if there were a candidate who embraced our similarities as human beings instead of constantly dividing us against each other. I'm sick of this whole s#it show. Probably a lot of people are.

interesting. so you are saying the illegal aliens are invaders?

maybe we should send US Marines and US Army to defend our border (instead of CBP which is law enforcement) to defend our country.
