Glad this is at the top. Unnecessary comment on my part, but to reiterate: don’t ever forget that. It is YOUR money, not the Government’s. Very important fact that sets our ideology apart from the leftist’s.

Thank you

But I don't like to call it my money. It's my neighbor's money.

And I shouldn't cheer spending another person's money, I should regretfully apologize spending only what absolutely must. My rent doesn't qualify.

Fun Financial Facts

Majority of Americans live paycheck to paycheck. Majority of Americans have less than 500 dollars in their bank account at any given time. 2/3rds of Americans cannot cover a $1000 vehicle repair bill. Majority of Americans have less than $10,000 in assets. The Average American has a outstanding creditcard debt of 15,000 or more. That's not counting student, vehicle and mortgage.

The average NPC, honestly do not know how to manage their money, nor do they know how to shop properly. They pay MSRP or mark up, look trendy and blow it all on causes that have no tangible return. Then complain when something happens.

And trying to get them to see that, with modest but consistent changes in their behavior, they can build savings, free themselves from debt, and have investments to rely on in their old age? Not possible, only Bernie can save us. Like slamming my head against a brick wall.

These people want to have it all with no consequence.

Not sure if this dude is lying. I don't know anyone who makes that much in SF who is out of work as those jobs tend to be a good fit for work at home.

The weak minds and botnets of twitter are buzzing tonight claiming Pelosi joepedoing the bill was because it was a “corporate” handout. Never mind they are all using computers that would not exist and networks that could never happen on a corporate built and maintained platform that would never last if corporations didn’t exist.

They would rather it be the start of mass government dependency that would benefit nobody.

Socislism can absolutely work. Run it as a non profit insurance.
The problem is not that socialism can't work. It can.
The problem is the government takes your money in the form of taxes with no opt out. If the government does not deliver on its promises of healthcare job security the money gets reassigned, missapropriated or downright embezzled through fraud, enabled by kickbacks, donations and what not, what are you gonna do ? You still have to pay those taxes even after interest groups bribe themselves to a frivolous cut of the pie.
So socialism can work, but it will not. That's the problem people are not seeing. We can all be good and nice so we won't have wars anymore and will not weapons anymore, but that is not going to happen. Same problem with socialism.

That is the big problem with socialism and what makes it so enticing. If you look at it just on paper you would be crazy not to.

The government doesn't pay the people, the people pay for the government.

Money = Production
