Omaha-Husker Posted January 6, 2021 Share Posted January 6, 2021 There has been massive voter fraud in Georgia, I have found the actual results. Only those ready to see the truth that they are hiding from you should look. Spoiler 1 Link to comment

I can see how a slight shift from military overspending to more equitable healthcare, education, and taxation would frighten you 5 Link to comment

More equitable Education you say..hmmmm....school choice sounds pretty good. Wonder why those s#!tty Democrats want to keep kids in failing schools. taxation....what’s fair? 50% already pay no federal tax. What do you want, 70% to not pay? Take every penny from every American billionaire and it still won’t make a dent in paying for programs you want. healthcare....I thought The Almighty solved everything with Obamacare? 1 Link to comment

Let's start with environmental rollbacks. I can keep going from there, but you get the idea. If you have the time we can pick apart the 2017 Tax Reform plan -- a blatant and cynical giveaway to the top percenters. https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2020/climate/trump-environment-rollbacks-list.html 1 Link to comment

Since you already posted that you feared Democratic policies would be the end of mankind, the burden of proof (and humor) is on you. There has been about 20 years of results on privatized schools in the conservative model, and it's been pretty disappointing. A commitment to put some of that wasteful military spending into public education could make America great again. Taxation? Well we can talk a good game, but at the end of the day the wealthy enjoy massive loopholes. The rest of your premise is bizarrely false: even a modest increase in taxes on corporations and multi-millionaires --- remaining far below what they've been in America's golden past --- and you can pay for hugely beneficial social programs. Fun fact; you know who benefits from a healthier, more financially secure, and better educated population? Big business. Healthcare? Surely you know that Obamacare was sabotaged at every turn by Republicans, and yet it still provides coverage for millions of otherwise uninsured Americans. If you'd like to improve this imperfect system, come join us! It'll be fun. 2 Link to comment

Mitt Romney, too. It’s something I guess I will never understand. If all the moderates in both parties came together and said screw the leadership on both sides, good things could get done for the American people that both sides could be happy about. instead, they bow to leadership in order to get on preferred committees and get in line for election funding. They all care more about their positions on committees and next elections more than actual governing. 1 Link to comment

Hell let’s get those babies up to 50% Fed and 20% State for anyone making three times the average income. We will REALLY be going gangbusters. Imagine all the stuff Gov can pay for. 1 Link to comment
