She called it "peoples prosperity plan"
Five votes by losers put her in.
She said anyone making under $75k would get free money.
It's money and freebies that they all want.
How did you feel about people voting for George W. Bush in 2004 over Kerry, when it was obvious that Bush lies about Hussein's weapons of mass destruction program?
We are given two shitty choices, picked, by the parties.
I'm not a fan of the Republican party establishment, but the only hope for popular control of government is the MAGA Republicans. So it's a choice between 100% corrupt Democrats, and 80% corrupt Republicans.
I say that war is necessary only when the physical territory of the US is attacked.
Americans should never be dying to protect foreigners, especially because it's never even really about protecting foreigners, but always about promoting some corporate or government insider financial interest. "War is a racket" as Smedley Butler wrote.

Defending your homeland is patriotism. Warring on foreign lands is conquest for empire.

Fuck this. I'm tired of my government protecting stupid decisions by crap corporations. Let them fail.

How much are you willing to pay for a tank of gas, a tank of home heating oil or anything else dependent on petroleum, if we opt out of protecting the House of Saud and let the chips fall where they may ?

Like our decades long stay in Saudi Arabia and assorted countries in the Middle East and Africa ?
Fuck the Sa'ud Family, the are mobsters.
Yes, they are. The luring and murdering of dissident Jamal Khashoggi was pretty spectacular proof.

My major issue is war. It's wasteful, expensive, and useless. War is used to launder money, and pay off corrupt corporations and politicians but it's worse than that, it's covered up by state sanctioned murder.

Wars are fought to continue to maintain dollar as the world's reserve currency and to some extent give back to the campaign donors. If we didn't go to wars, the country could potentially collapse. Its a part of the economy like housing, automobiles, sports etc.
I prefer collapse in this case.

Your bank account and any other assets you don't physically have in hand will disappear.

he script that the Democrats are using is the Cloward Piven Strategy.
gabbar It's not hopeless if we all keep telling the truth and get enough people to demand fair elections.
You mentioned this earlier, food and circus. We have a population that is not hungry and has limitless access to entertainment. Under these conditions, I don't think human biology will inspire itself for the struggle/battle/war of demanding fair elections. I could be wrong but the odds are not in favor. I hope I am totally wrong with this stupid theory.
Don't get me wrong, I do see a valid reason for small scale conflicts in testing out equipment and tactics as well as in keeping the troops in good fighting conditions.
steal billions in taxpayer money by laundering it through Ukraine?
Nice accusation. Any proof emerged yet?

Why yes, Sam Bankman-Fried openly admitting it on video.
