The rightwing bootstraps rhetoric being tossed around in here is fukking dumb and it has failed poor people for literally decades.


That isnt what has failed poor people, show me a country where everyone is rich though . You dont have the slightest idea of what being poor is or about. And I making college free isn't going to change the rich / poor dynamic, if anything it will just continue to widen. As public institutions bachelora degree become common place society will just develop more costly barriers to discern quality workers for high paid jobs. You already have undergrads having to take low wage jobs because we are in such an economic upstream

Yes, we can't do those things on a $500 billion annual budget instead of a $700 billion + budget?

This is precisely why snapping off on twitter is a bad idea


OH NO, NOT MEGHAN MCCAIN! :sadcam:

:mjlol: this is a total non-sequitur. First, AOC doesn't have the skeletons that Gabbard has, so this has no bearing on AOC's communication strategy. Second, useless neocon shytheads like Meghan McCain have already been tweeting their nonsense bad faith arguments at AOC, she ain't scared and has been handling them beautifully. Third, you were sucking off Barack yesterday, and his people get clapped up on Twitter every day.

Bro...shut up.

So you're happy to fire 10,000 -50,000 troops from their jobs in order to make college tuition free which will probably help the super rich the most anyway?

I'm sticking this.

Youre guys are dolts. You some how thing Republican brainwashed poor people into not wanting free stuff. Those people are the same ones who voted for Obama for free health care and will vote dems in for free education . Poor people want free shyt. Free colleges will be passed on the decade and it will fail miserably for the reasons I've mentioned. But you guys dont get it because you don't understand human behavior or economics, and apparently history nor social studies lol. I'm on the losing end of this vote but when poor people are being put in worse positions the new complaint will pop up.

I have NO affinity for Meghan McCain

But this is what happens when you keep trying to knock every pitch into the parking lot on twitter.

Sometimes someone is going to push it back on you.

Whatever Gabbard gained in trolling, she lost in the conservative push back.

Stop giving people easy wins.

What does her dad have to do with her ideas and thoughts though?

Do those ideas and thoughts keep the same energy when it comes to her dad?

Meghan has nothing to do with Trump and his policies. That was one politician talking to another. But if Meghan wants to bring up people's war records and who they associated with, then she should be prepared when they bring up her father's skeletons.

Brehski you're really in here arguing against "welfare" state while at the same time arguing for using military for job creation :gucci:

There are a lot more efficient ways of stimulating economy, improving society and increasing productivity than continuing to make obsolete F-Whatever fighter jets and fighting trillion dollar wars.

Some of those I believe do , which is why there's a large disparity between rich and poor and it continues to grow and has grown since 60s when social welfare really started to pick up steam. So short answer is yes, I'm not going to address one by one your answers so take this as a general answer.
This actually isn't accurate.

American Inequality in Six Charts

"Once again, the long-term trends are clear. Between the start of the Second World War and the first oil-price shock of 1973, families in the bottom ninety-nine per cent saw their incomes rise sharply. With the exception of the late nineteen-nineties, the past forty years have been marked by slow growth. For those at the top of the income distribution, recent history has been very different. After growing modestly in the postwar decades, the incomes of families in the top one per cent took off in the late nineteen-seventies, and have been zig-zagging upward since then."

Inequality started getting supercharged in the late-70s, early-80s when conservatives began waging war on labour and the social safety net. It was the mid-century period of FDR's socialist New Deal and LBJ's socialist Great Society that laid the groundwork for a healthy, robust middle class.

We have a moderate capitalistic and socialist society what's dangerous and naive is the thought process that you believe people given free stuff will work just as hard without the positive and negative incentives that has driven man since the dawn of time.
So according to you, the wealthy are the laziest group in society because they no longer have positive and negatives incentives to drive them? I think in reality, what robs people of motivation to progress their lives is the belief that there is no opportunity to progress because society has stacked the deck against them by not giving them the tools they need to rise from their condition through socialist policies. And again, these aren't "free stuff" being given via socialist policies, they're the benefits and rights you are owed by society as a citizen. You pay for them via taxes and civic behavior. No one calls the police "free", no one calls the military "free", no one calls social security "free", no one calls roads or the postal service or any of the other myriad things the government does to uphold society "free". It's a deal, and it's the basis of a healthy society.

It's a bit funny because I'm saying invest instead in K-12 which is horrendous except for....the tuition based schools! ! Lol
It's education now, why don't we give everyone a million dollars at birth as well.
K-12 is free, due to socialist policies, and robust investment in it is a progressive, socialist policy! I've never in my life heard of a progressive that was against more investment in public schooling. It's almost always conservatives touting the "no free lunch" ideology that you've been displaying that have acted to starve public schools, and they've used your idea that it will separate the deserving wheat from the indolent chaff as justification. Free college is just a natural extension of free K-12 that acknowledges we live in a modern world and economy in which knowledge work is becoming increasingly centralized, and social education policy should reflect that.
