nothing about improving the education system
The only way that the education system in the US is going to improve, is to get all levels of government out of it while simultaneously axing at least 50% of administrative jobs in it and trashing all "teachers" who can't pass basic knowledge tests in their fields (protip: this is most of them). US education has been controlled by the left for the past 40+ years, to disastrous results.
 
Communists convinced several generations that everything comes from nothing and the government should provide everything. It used to be "ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country." Now it's all a bunch of lazy assholes who don't understand how the world works.

We're one of the only Capitalist industrialized countries that does not have public health care. We have no safety net for poors. The rich shipped all manufacturing to China and let the former manufacturing centers OD on heroin.

You gotta quit blaming communism on capitalist problems.
 
I assume it will be the same but reverse- making sure you have done enough. Granted, people will just sign it for whatever and fudge numbers but it's better than nothing at this point.
Exactly: people are going to fudge it anyway, but this makes it at little harder. People in poor towns can hang out at a local church and get the hours for community service.

Axing administrative do-nothing jobs would go a long way.

That's what a communist would say. Nice try, Wang

And the removal of common core, it is a known fact that the introduction of common core has started the decline of test scores throughout history. Kids are not learning what they need to learn anymore they're just learning basics.
 
JD has referred to and quoted Yarvin's work approvingly. Elon is Paypal mafia. Come on. If you're going to do propaganda, please do it better.
I do hate Yarvin and Bronzed AIDS Victim and the entire sphere of jewish pseudo-intellectualism that permeates a small fraction of rightist discussion online, with its cathedrals and longhouses and other impracticable luxury theories that only really count as shibboleths for their subculture, but I don't remember the God Emperor meme being originally promulgated by so-called Dark Enlightenment types. I could be wrong, but I remember it as just a part of that air horn, nimble navigator milieu you'd see in 2016 debate compilations.

how does america "not have public health care" when medicare and medicaid are like 25% of the federal budget
 
This is Reddit-tier understanding of American politics. Do you not understand what caucuses are?
Insofar as a voter has any input, it's either red team or blue team.

Good, I don't want to pay for the medical expenses of every subhuman retard too lazy to get a job.
 
That's fucking bullshit, you don't understand just how bad healthcare was and just how easy it was to be denied coverage or dropped before 2010.
And how ever bad it was, it's gotten significantly worse since the Niggerfaggot your side worshipped tried to "fix it." It's kinda like how trucks keep getting bigger because of Obama era CAFE standards. None of you Team Blue types understand second and third order consequences. Well, the rank and file don't, the guys on top knew the ACA would fuck things up more instead of fixing it.

See, the fact that you've actually bought into the last 40 years of Republican propaganda that any aid to this country's poor is "gibs", meanwhile they've spent the last 8 presidencies continually fucking over the middle class to enrich the rich is the fucking problem with this country.

Republicans since Reagan have tricked people into believing all of their problems come from the bottom classes and not from the higher ups who actually pull the strings. This bill is going to cause stagflation on top of the oncoming recession, but that doesn't matter because they might do a few more shows of deportation theater for Fox News.
The vast majority of Federal Government spending is on entitlements because you Cultist retards think you can legislate away poverty. Everything in this country gets continually worse because your side of the political aisle forces everything to the Lowest Common Denominator. You make endless excuses for the behavior of the bottom quintile, instead of dealing with them effectively. We gave up space for the Spic-Nig cycle, now all we have is morbidly obese "poor" with big screen TVs and SUVs.

>we mostly want [culture war bullshit]
Nothing about improving the healthcare system, nothing about improving the education system, nothing about reducing poverty or improving the economy or anything that actually materially helps the American people, just petty grudges.
The only thing your side ever does is just throw endless money at these problems, which never improve. Because the money isn't effectively spent to fix the problem, it's a thin cover for a network of political patronage.

Well yeah, Vance is one of us online Right Wingers, of course he knows about Yarvin. I know about Yarvin from the Moldbug days, sometimes he has useful thoughts, but he's still a faggot massively up his own ass and butt hurt because he didn't get to be part of the elite. This is known. And if you still think Trump is beholden to Musk, there's nothing I can do for you, you're clearly too old for this.
 
WTF is even happening in the Senate? How many Senators besides Thune are nuking their careers just to protect the parliamentarian?
Tin-foil: I recall Brendan Herrera of all people mentioning politicians being pissy at the 2A crowd shortly after they didn't settle for the original $0 tax proposal.
How much of this is being done out of spite for their voter bases wanting actual action instead of hollow promises? Either way, at least it can be sued out of existence now (unless the courts argue some BS like the $0 tax is still a tax just one that costs nothing). I really hope Trump declares Total Rhino Death for the Senate, and Elon actually goes through primarying as many people as possible since their replacements will be extremists.

Thune isn't even running in 2026, he's retiring. He was chosen for the sole reason that Trump has zero leverage to replace him.

And that's a good thing. Have you taken any look at what's happening in Canada and the UK? The NHS is swamped with patients that they can't care for at a reasonable time, and Canada is recommending MAID to anybody they possibly can that's a burden to their healthcare system. MAID is already nearly 5% of all deaths in Leafistan. The Scandinavian countries that have the "best socialist healthcare" all for the most part have tax rates above 50%

Sure our healthcare system is shitty, but at least we don't get recommended MAID for broken bones and have to pay over 50% of our income to a retarded government that lets shitskins flood into the country.
 
I dunno but it seems the people most upset (at least in my social circle) are all spoiled white people who have had their parents gib them houses and shit while the people who are excited about the bill are all hard workers who have been forced to be on government gibs before.

I'm too lazy to think all that too deeply into it, but it's funny.
