I'm reminded of a very old joke.
The baby food thing is depressing as fuck.
I genuinely do not trust China to ever show us real things. The biggest paper tiger on earth. Just look at their service rifle and tell me they're actually a hightech last boss with elite weapons of war just waiting to be let loose. Especially now that I saw the reality of Russia who was the other secret super tough boogieman with elite spetsnaz that are BUILT DIFFERENT. Everyone's military is lame, videogames and movies lied to us.
probably since this is a us hosted web-zone.
Is China's military buildup another Beiyang Fleet? Even if their military capability is real, the Communist Party may have the same fundamental problems as the Qing that prevent them from effectively utilizing it.
How do you even do a TRO on this?
Looks like a shittier F-22.
Or we can keep it shut down to essential things and let welfare queens starve.
They lived scrimped and saved and lived humbly and simply. You know the poor are spoiled when they are entitled to brand new shoes, cars, and iPhone. It's supposed to be shitty to be poor.
There were things back in the day called poor farms. People down on their luck could go to one if there was room and they could work and live in a communal situation for a time until they found other work accommodations and moved on to a proper gig.
Regardless of the New Deal and things adjacent to it getting removed, if Isolationism continues to grow in America, we might have to replace Obama with him in "muh legacy" memes.
You know for a fact that if Republicans were the ones keeping the government shutdown right now, the Democrats would be suing them into the stone age.
That's the way it was growing up for me anyway. My mom worked at a hotel so she made just enough money to not qualify for welfare in Australia. So we relied on churches, charities and I had to live in a place that was half boongs.
Exactly. If you're an able bodied person just get a job. I'm sick of welfare queen niggers, EBT and other programs should be for the disabled, the elderly and other people who CAN'T work, not who WON'T work.
As funny as some of Jackson and Sotomayer's judgments have been, it's a bit sobering to realize that these are two people that are going to constantly side with judgments for the rest of their lives that wither and break away some of the things that once made this country great, and the only thing keeping them in check is hoping to have more people on the high bench that try to give a shit about the rule of law. I mean shit, Merrick Garland came one congressional sperg out away from getting on the bench.
Maybe. But what it really is is a voter retention program. Keep voting for the Democrats, and we'll keep giving you free stuff. The whole welfare state is a way to keep the left in power. The Dems have long branded themselves as the party of the poor, the urban non-whites, the struggling single moms, etc. It provides them with moral cover for all of their corruption. It creates a permanent class of dependents that provide the justification for government expansion, creating all kinds of opportunity to create USAIDs and NGOs.
