Or we fix some shit at home first.

I’m a climate idiot. Does this somehow relate to ice ages, I wonder?

Those children are guilty of choosing to be born into the wrong family, after all. /s

But how!? Magic!? The politicians who control tax law protect them! 😱

I’m all for taxing the rich, but I’m even more for rooting out the corruption that enables the rich to become the monsters they are. This isn’t bootlicking, its holding the opinion that the priorities are out of order.

Thanks for sharing your perspective.

Safe to assume they boom, otherwise we would have invaded long ago.

And so the hawkish death cycle continues!

Doesnt it make more sense to root out the corruption before feeding them cash?

Any concern for retaliatory strikes? Guess the poor needn’t worry about going hungry if they’re dust, right?

Thanks for sharing a perspective that I hadnt considered. I certainly agree that corporate greed is detrimental and plays a key role in governmental corruption.

Agreed!

I think that was part of my thinking with my hot take.

I’m all for the rich paying their fair share, but maximizing what we already have is important too.

Did you just manage to roll China with your cyber attribution dice?

Now this is a policy I can get behind.

Admittedly, I thought these percentages were different.

Not above admitting when I’m wrong.

Find me a candidate that’d work toward of these objectives and they’d have my vote, assuming I can stomach the rest of their politics.

But it seems to me that the greater focus there is on a single matter, the more likely it is to change. And the mildustry complex is probably the greatest threat to the planet right now imho.

Or we prioritize other objectives first, like gutting corruption and FINDING THE MISSING BILLIONS OF PENTAGON DOLLARS.

There’s already a fuck ton of money, it’s just misappropriated.

this sort of stuff is rampant. A few years old but it makes my blood boil every time I think about it.

Tool Creator should work on this, it ain’t making no sense that the default json file (Google) is not updated cause seeing that work on Google tells us that it definitely works on all sites

Seems minor but the tone of the demand is wildly entitled.

And the divided focus is why progress on either matter is never achieved. Minor triage obviously reveals the military industrial complex to be the issue most deserving of our attention.

How about we all stop paying taxes until the fucks start using the income for things other than making foreign peoples dead?

There’s enough money in the pot, it’s just squandered on things that don’t benefit the people. We could accomplish so fucking much with just the amount of cash that the Pentagon misplaces every year.

I’ll never understand the obsession with demanding more from the rich while we can’t even account for what we already have. Is everything a goddamn distraction campaign?
