the billionaires, but I did not protest because I was not a billionaire. Then they came for the millionaires, but I did not protest because I was not a billionaire. Then they came for hard workers in the middle and upper middle class, but I did not protest because I was not a hard worker in the middle or upper middle class. Then they came for me and I protested, but there was no one that mattered left to listen. The future of America.

More like they came after the middle and upper middle class, tried to tax them out of existence, and no one said shit. Try to remove tax breaks / loopholes from the big corporations and top 1% and that's big f'n news. Guessing that's because they own the media and the lobbyists.

Sort of an odd topic (rant?), but then look at who started the thread.

The closest thing to this in reality is that Liz Warren wants to tax *wealth* above $50M at 2%. In other words it's only your second $50M that gets taxed and it's only at 2%.

Even if Warren gets elected, all legislation gets crafted in the House and must go through the Senate. So even if Warren won, there's virtually zero chance of the wealth tax or single-payer healthcare going through.

So maybe @SkiBirther is just going off on another one of his stoned rants.

That is a scary opening paragraph. Its also frightening how closely it depicts the democratic - and exceedingly liberal mindset.

There are two questions for dems when they talk about their plans 1. How much will this increase taxes on the middle class - 2. How do you define middle class (income level - assets)?

Its scary when Pocahontas says no to question 1. But its frightening when she says the middle class makes $25,000-35,000 a year! So, in order to be middle class you must make so little, that you can barely afford a trailer home.

If it comes down to a purge, likely you won't even know that you were shot until after you have passed.

Maybe later, to make body disposal easier, we will march people on the hoof to the guillotine.

No matter what, it will all be done very quickly and with very little risk.

@VH

PC culture is the downfall of the democrat party. If Democrat politicians would stop race baiting everyone and being openly hostile towards straight white men, maybe they'd have more support. I've met SJWs who just straight up said they hated white men. I have no white friends. I'm not sure why this is the case, but I don't. All my friends are either Arab, Latino, or Asian, and they all dislike the SJW ideology. I actually see white people supporting political correctness more frequently than non-whites do. Its not a matter of racist Trump supporters just wanting to kick out all the brown people. Its a matter of being disgusted by how openly hateful the left has become towards white men. And the way they have become so obsessed with race that they want to place everyone on a hierarchy centered around where people fall on the oppression scale.

"the average middle class family struggling to pay medical bills and send their kids to college while a fat old trust-fund draft-dodger like Commie Donnie charges his voters $8 million to fly Air Force One to Mar-A-Faggo for one weekend of golf."

Lol that's progressive rule causing that. Feminism pushing women to be full time workers has made it so that companies now expect every household to have two full time earners and don't feel obligated to pay any one person enough to sustain a family on one income.

It isn't about kicking out the brownies from Mexico. Concerns about illegal immigration have to do with the inability to integrate millions of people into our infrastructure if they are illegal. How the hell are we supposed to be able to handle everyone and their mother from central America trying to come over here if the democrats actually institute open borders? If they do it legally they are perfectly welcome but millions of illegals streaming over the border will cause social services to become overwhelmed and dysfunctional.

Ok the travel ban was stupid. But Trump has mostly backed off of the dumber ideas he had at the beginning of his presidency.

@VH

The Raise Act is pretty stupid. I see targeting legal immigration as a strongly negative policy, that being said, I highly doubt it would ever get enough support to pass. Obviously, none of the Democrats would support it, but it doesn't really have much support among Republicans either. Its basically the work of a few dumbasses and Trump happens to be backing them. However, I doubt the bill could ever pass the house of representatives and it probably wouldn't pass in the senate either which means that Trump really has no power to decide on whether it can be passed or not.

You already mentioned that the Republicans are willing to stop Trump's more insane ideas, which means that the crazy Trump factor is actually being controlled quite well. When it comes down to it though, Trump prevented us from getting into a war with Iran which the neocons were pushing for, he made the right decision regarding Bashar Assad when he gassed his own people to send a message that the US will not tolerate evil dictators thinking they can do whatever they want, and he has gotten closer to peace with North Korea than any of our previous presidents have without simply handing them money that will never go towards feeding their people.

VH_kicks: "Once all the Boomer white guys die off (by 2040), then you are seriously fucked because the vast majority of Millenials identify as Democrat or left-leaning centrists."

It seems to be a commonality that young people are liberal, but gradually become more conservative after decades of busting their asses and paying taxes. A lot of the old boomer white guys you speak of were the 1960's left leaning hippies in their youth. You may be surprised in 2040 by how many Millennials are now in favor of less government and less taxes. I guarantee if they have spent 15 years paying off their own student loans, they are not going to what to be taxed to pay off the debt of the subsequent generation (Gen Z / Alpha).

Young people today are way more divided than the Boomer generation was. The Boomer generation, for the most part, were all behind liberal ideas and trying to work towards that. The Gen Z and Millennials, however, are split. On one hand you have the batshit crazy SJWs who think band-aids are racist and that we should have 72 genders. On the other hand, you've got lots of guys on the /pol/ section of 4chan who are very far right. You've also got a major movement among young people that hate political correctness and SJW ideology who share some in common with that 4chan demographic but aren't exactly the same. A significant minority of young people are more aggressively right-wing than most "old white men."

Of course thats assuming I am alive by 2040, or that the single stupidest person in Pittsburgh is right about something.

@skibum

I don't have any problem with the legal immigrants. I have more immigrant friends than native born friends actually. In my experience, they tend to respect and appreciate the United States a lot more than native born Americans do and they genuinely want to support our country and be a part of it. Whenever I talk to them they think progressives are nauseating as well for all the obsession with racism and white privilege and tell me they've never felt discriminated against. The SJW movement is mainly comprised of spoiled, whiny middle-upper class college students who's white guilt is so bad they've started hating themselves.

Most of the legal immigrants are more American to me than any of those whiny assholes which is why I welcome more of them.

But I do agree that illegals are draining our social services without providing much in return. If they want to be Americans they should go through the legal channels so we can properly integrate them into our country.

prevert, there is a difference between dealing with drunken idiot toughs, and with facing executioners who only care how fast they can kill you, and they aren't concerned about conserving ammunition.

For that job I would prefer shortened barrel 5.56 x 45mm. Save the full barrel 7.62 x 51mm for firing squads, as that is more ritualistic.

If America's Electoral System continues to fail, it could easily come to this.


CC99, someone who is offended that women are gettng sexually harassed in the work place should not have to listen to your mockery, calling them SJW. You are just wrong about this entire idea.

And women fought hard to be able to have careers out of the home. They see domesticity as a trap and an artifact of gender.

That a lot of this household income has gone to driving up real estate prices, that is not because of feminism, its because of residual social conservatism.

I can't tell if you are just having fun play acting, or if you really have lost your marbles.

People think that carrying around guns gets them protection. It doesn't. Most of the time those guns are used to shoot family members and neighbors.

It doesn't matter if guns are legal either.

Only reason to carry a gun is if you intend to kill people.

It could go that way, burning cities and towns to the ground, shooting anything which could still be alive.

Now the Right denigrates minorities and the poor, assuming that they will never strike back.

Alcohol, drugs, psychiatric medications, and Born Again Christianity go a long way in pacification. But even these still do have their limits.

I first saw that there was something seriously wrong about Trump with the Muslim couple who spoke at the Democratic Convention.

Trump was talking about Muslim Bans. He was fondling his xenophobic base.

But such a ban would violate the Constitution, and the courts would later tell him so.

At the Convention a Muslim couple spoke. They challenged Trump, asking if he had ever read the Constitution. They were Naturalized Citizens, having as much right to be called Americans as does Donald Trump.

They lost one of their sons, 27yo, while he as serving in Iraq, as a US Army Captain.

But Trump makes fun of them.

And that is totally wrong, he makes fun of the Muslim Couple, he makes fun of all immigrants, and of all who have descended from immigrants, and he makes fun of all of those who have served in our military.

Donald Trump has no idea at all what this country is about!

I say it should be Lindsey Graham of South Carolina.

But who will give Trump asylum, and can his 757 fly there without refueling?

There is not enough water to get to Leningrad without crossing over EU waters and airspace. But he could go above the Arctic Circle and get beyond Finland to Murmansk.

If his 757 does not have the range, maybe a bunch of food and water and he can borrow Greta Thunberg's 60' yacht.
