No. It's better because it's an overall reduction in tax paid + its a closer move towards equality in taxation. You do support equality don't you?Eh? You seem to be arguing against yourself here.
The top1%sorry, 20% are paying less tax, everyone else is paying more. According to your own rationale that would be bad, yeah?
Probably too late for that.Speaking of which, it would make the most sense for Greenland to become a province of Canada. The locals wouldn't want to become fat and lose their healthcare under the control of Washington![]()
But 80% are paying more tax, something you're against - yet you're apparently ok with that coz "equality"?No. It's better because it's an overall reduction in tax paid + its a closer move towards equality in taxation. You do support equality don't you?
So I ask again, if it isn't government benefits or assistance, what benefit do the poor actually get as a result of this approach and why is it better for the 80% of society who are paying more tax than they used to?Why does this need to result in more government benefits for the working poor? The benefit is that less tax is paid, which is overall better for society.
Trump's recent efforts to intimidate private law firms who have worked on actions he disagrees with politically also flying under the radar, very dangerous stuff.
How about the above FlowersByIrene? Barring attorneys access to government officials and buildings (like courtrooms) and other measures that would make it impossible to do their job, with the aim of putting a chilling effect on the industry in general regarding representation for any issue Trump doesn't like - all good I assume, best for the world?
Is there anything in the latest US administration has done, that causes you concern?Speaking of which, it would make the most sense for Greenland to become a province of Canada. The locals wouldn't want to become fat and lose their healthcare under the control of Washington![]()
Ever entertained the thought that ,we in the left, are at fault and the reaaon that Trump/MAGA/Musk exists? And that every action this administration takes needs to be a source of introspection?Is there anything in the latest US administration has done, that causes you concern?
Not that 'they haven't done enough', or 'I'm always concerned with the US administration'.
But specifically the Trump/MAGA/Musk actions. Nothing they've done has made you pause, even as a conspiracy theorist?

This admin could have been ours, instead our arrogance, hubris and narcissism allowed it to happen for the other team.
Yes, quite a few things bother me about this administration.Is there anything in the latest US administration has done, that causes you concern?

I was always a leftist. You do realize that nobody on BF is a right winger even those you accuse of being RWNJ's.How do you know that you aren't just a confused centrist?
When did you start identifying as a leftist?
I come out slightly left of centre on that compass thing. Even in the authoritarian sector!I was always a leftist. You do realize that nobody on BF is a right winger even those you accuse of being RWNJ's.

I can confirm DRU's political compass result, he is a left

Have done it myself same result, even furthet left than DRU.
Mind you, it’s not something to brag about. Mustn’t let it get out of handI can confirm DRU's political compass result, he is a left

Isn't this what that project in Top Gun 2 was based on?Mind you, it’s not something to brag about. Mustn’t let it get out of hand
But now for something even more gobsmacking:
"Fighter Jet That Defies Physics: Elon Musk Leaked The SR-72 Darkstar Is Finally Ready For Debut
In a jaw-dropping announcement, Elon Musk revealed that the SR-72 Darkstar, a next-generation fighter jet that seems to defy the laws of physics, is finally ready for its long-awaited debut. The SR-72 Darkstar, which has been in development for years, promises to revolutionize military aviation with its unprecedented speed and technology, leaving aerospace enthusiasts and defense experts alike in awe.
The SR-72 Darkstar, a collaboration between SpaceX, Tesla, and government contractors, has been the subject of much speculation since its first hints were dropped by Musk in 2021. The aircraft is expected to be capable of reaching hypersonic speeds—well beyond the capabilities of any jet in operation today. Rumors suggest that the Darkstar could achieve speeds in excess of Mach 6, making it faster than any fighter jet currently in use."
You’d never do that now would you bourbons?They don't care.
As is, was and ever shall be - they don't have any actual core beliefs or principles, its just yay team for them regardless of what their team is actually doing.
You think Linda McMahon was given a position to be in control of nothing?
Schumer asking for political violence…
Of course I have. The last 20 years have been explaining how 'the left' is the majority/base reason for every action/reaction of 'the right'.Ever entertained the thought that ,we in the left, are at fault and the reaaon that Trump/MAGA/Musk exists? And that every action this administration takes needs to be a source of introspection?
This admin could have been ours, instead our arrogance, hubris and narcissism allowed it to happen for the other team.
I'm not talking about being bothered, or even at most a passive concern.Yes, quite a few things bother me about this administration.
Schumer asking for political violence…
Werewolf Can you help me understand your positions more? Because I'm now adrift.I am sorry Bourbons, but i don't have time to debate these points in the minutiae with you.
All i know is that when I wake up in the morning, and breathe the cool, fresh air of a world with Donald Trump as president, I feel buoyed that there is hope for society yet.
I look forward to you coming to that realization one day. Hopefully soon.
