but what the democrats doing to stop it?

#Bothsides

Look if Biden wanted to he could have all the credit card companies shut down and stop everything that their doing. They could make the credit card companies pay their own fees.

Right. I know it's all rooted in patriarchy and racism. It's just insane to me how people can be so racist they will literally fukk themselves over to harm others.

This planet is so fukked.

shyt blows my mind. I had an argument with a hardcore Republican who finally came around on climate change being a problem. Yet he blamed Democrats for it. I asked how, and his reasoning was because Democrats are fukking idiots that can't get anything accomplished. I pointed out that the reason they can't get shyt accomplished is because of the people he's voting into office who are blocking their proposals. Somehow that's the fault of Democrats. It was so dumb I just had to walk away from the discussion.

I've even laid out for him how a lot of his principles line up more with Democrats and refuses to even considering voting any differently.

Just pay your bill in full on time every month. What’s the problem?

Oh wait, if the bill is too large the leftover balance carries interest? So what it’s not like the interest rate is some crazy amount like 20% or anything like that.

Do you mind expounding on how credit card late fees are essential to fighting hyperinflation?

And I bring up hyperinflation since that's Argentina's major financial problem at the moment

I really don't understand how people vote for these people. .

Fox News and whatever other echo chambers their voters listen to don't report on this kind of stuff
And if you point it out , they all act like they are temporarily embarrassed millionaires despite being coal miners or some other mediocre ass mid west Joe the plumber type

This was a long time ago but I remember this cat I grew up with complaining about taxes on his check with the #thanksobama hashtag. This MF was a grown ass pizza delivery driver yet repping Republicans hard as hell.

Most people are destined to be absolutely regular as hell in achievements, employment, etc...yet somehow these folks have been convinced that giving advantages to those at the top will benefit them. Aside from the WW2 post-war boom, focusing on the middle is what made America expand and become the "envy of the world." That shyt changed in the 80s and they see the differences but think going harder in that direction will reverse their fortunes.

The common people are in a doom-loop sponsored by big corporations and oligarchs.

Yea trickle down logic has some them in a headlock. I used to comment in news articles and shyt like that but it's not even worth it. Can't be arguing with somebody that makes 50k a year who is pressed over Elon Musk or some other rich cac that don't give a fukk about them doing good. The right voting against their own best interest been a trope but it's kind of scary how extreme they are about elevating people who don't need it in spite of themselves

 

[Brolic]

As they should. Those excessive credit card fees would be taxed by the government. Once the republicans win they’ll use the extra money gained from those taxes to give us our tangibles.

 

[SupaDupaFresh]

Oh you didn't know, OP. It doesn't specifically hurt black people so it's okWhat are them rascally Dems gonna do about it?!?

And don't forget black people are actually very conservative. Besides the racism of course.
