...not to throw water on this but there is already too much socialism in the US.

Yeah that 300-400$ unemployment bonus per week sounds a lot like a test for UBI

34
real_mcnugget 34 points ago +34 / -0

That $600 was fucking ridiculous. Of course people didn't want to go back to work, when you'd be making $1000 a week in CA on unemployment. I wish these fucking losers would just leave America and go live in the type of governmental and economic system they so crave. It's already "working", so just move there.

The trucker shortage is getting worse because they would rather sit at home and get unemployment than drive.

Tookens 4 points ago +7 / -3

1K/week in CA (or at least parts of CA) is not much. Certainly not enough to live on.

What the hell are you talking about? $4,000 a month is easily livable in any place outside of Los Angeles and the Bay Area.

Tookens 1 point ago +1 / -0

Outside of the places where everyone actually lives...

real_mcnugget 1 point ago +1 / -0

Again, what are you talking about? There are close to 20,000,000 people in CA who don't live in the greater Los Angeles or the Bay Area.

MightyBright 1 point ago +1 / -0

I'm asking because I don't know. Do unskilled jobs pay more than that over there? What is the average income and who makes less than $1000 a week?

calipede here

minimum wage right now is 12 bucks an hour for less than 25 employees, 13 bucks for 25+ employees. some years back the state government decided to raise the minimum wage to 15 bucks an hour across the board by 2023 or some shit I think, and naturally skilled jobs that play close to that are not increasing their wages to compensate for increased minimum wage so a lot of people are giving up their extremely difficult jobs that pay close to minimum wage so they can instead work a couple easy fast food jobs and make more money than your average inexperienced people in skilled labor like the trades, medical, emergency services, and so forth.

basically anybody who was considered essential back in march is getting dicked lmao

It's a compensation for the lockdowns that never should have occurred in the first place...

Maybe now people start to understand how governments work: Provide your own government solutions to the problems you've created through government action. Repeat infinitely.

Those countries have extremely high taxes they just aren't full blown socialists. Those social programs do not make the country stronger, they just haven't bankrupted the counties yet because they have a somewhat free market. Look at the trends, those places have been taking a nose dive since they started those social programs.

Thehoytime 2 points ago +2 / -0

I mostly agree, except for your last statement. Like I said before those programs are going to take these countries down sooner than later. You are saying that government control is better than private control. Also, a lot of those countries are incredibly oil rich.

Look at Venezuela, they were doing good for a little while too, until economic realities hit them.

Yep, and most Trump supporters support those socialized services, especially social security, Medicare/Medicaid, socialized/monopoly police, courts, fire protection, public education, roads, national security, etc.

9
ModernKnight 9 points ago +9 / -0

I support the courts, roads, and the military, because they are within the purviews of the Constitution. I oppose all the others, unless the specific State constitution allows for States to fund them (mainly police and fire protection).

5
BeardedNinjaPede 5 points ago +5 / -0

The original intent of The Constitution, the Founding Fathers, and this country was to have no standing army. Congress has to reauthorize its funding/existence every 2 years.

It doesn't seem practical in this world to not have a continuous, standing military.

Anyone who advocates socialism/communism/Marxism is either a moron which an extraordinarily poor grasp of history or someone with malicious intent. Both types of people must be remedied, with education and helicopters respectively.

Castro:

two doors down from where I grew up, a friend's Dad was a Marine. Stationed on THE main aircraft carrier during the Cuban missile crisis.

Dude was tough as nails. So were his three Sons.

Grew up with the air raid sirens and drills into the bomb shelters. Can NOT imagine this embrace of communism.

The first soldier into battle on D-Day was my Mom's Uncle. He survived all that plus the battle of Bastogne and made it back home in one piece, physically and mentally. No telling how many actual Nazis Uncle Frank had to kill to be able to do that!

These punks try calling me a Nazi they have no clue what's waiting for them ...

Alright, respect.

I've always known we'd have a lot fewer soyboys if this country had mandatory military service. It's always been a regret of mine that I didn't enlist for a few years when I was younger.

CuomoisaMassMurderer 1 point ago +1 / -0

I think it'll be our turn to be heroes soon. We've been saying we need to take this Country back since the 80s. If we fail to secure fair elections before November, we should take drastic action. Our position weakens immensely if fraudulent election results are announced.

Remember that they introduced the green new deal resolution two days after he said this.

Yeah, that's right. The Green New Deal resolution was a crime of passion.

They were so fucking pissed at us for what Trump said that they decided they're gonna move up the total socialism to the next 10 years.

What a letdown the Tea Party was. I was but a young buck, but I remember the Tea Party had a lot of sway at one time. Then bam, out of nowhere a bunch of RINO's attached themselves to OUR movement and drove it straight to the ground. We weren't careful enough back then, we were just happy to have familiar faces on board without realizing they were the ones fucking us over. At least a Democrat is straight with you, you know what your getting. Instead we got played by supposed patriots that were going to make Tea Party even stronger. Well they strengthened us up right into the shitter.

Grond999 5 points ago +5 / -0

The RepubliCANT party is sadly actual cancer to America. The RINO riddled cancer either has massive reforms happen or it is all over whatever year Trump departs from office. The Dems need to be kept from power for all time IMHO. Marxism has made too much ground over decades, and the changing demographics are trending towards more Democrat voters. No more "wake up Jeff" episodes.

If we had an actual intelligence community that was actually infiltrating subversive groups and protecting the homeland instead of trying to overthrow the POTUS, we probably wouldn't be approaching our 3rd straight month of relentless BLM riots.

Exactly. The IC should be in there getting BLM/Antifa IDs via HD camera shots and other means. I truly smh. America is riddled with Marxists and traitors. Post Trump....OMG! A miracle reform needs to happen to the RepubliCANT party before Trump leaves office.

They can’t steal an overwhelming landslide. Vote even if you think they are gonna cheat.

CuomoisaMassMurderer 4 points ago +4 / -0

Vote, yes Don't misunderestimate the extent to which they plan on cheating. .They would prefer there to be no election. If we haven't been able to secure assurances of a fair election before November, we need to take drastic action. Our position weakens dramatically after they announce their fraudulent election results.

graenma 3 points ago +3 / -0

Stop worrying about voting. If you’re an actual pede you will do it no matter what. The real push to this community should be to take PTO and get involved in polling and counting ballots. That’s where it matters now!

2
CuomoisaMassMurderer 2 points ago +2 / -0

here, poll watchers don't count anything. We're really good at monitoring physical in person voters. When those boxes of mail in ballots come in at the last minute?

That's what we have to have an answer for ... that and blm intimidating people into not showing up in person

Amaroq64 6 points ago +6 / -0

We just have to vote and redpill as if they're going to.

2
CuomoisaMassMurderer 2 points ago +2 / -0

Yeah, we really do need a list. And we need to check it twice. Here's the list of bad actors I gleaned from Millie Milennial's documentary:

General James Jones & Son, Jim Jones John O. Brennan General Stanley A McCh(rystal?) Steve A Linick Gen Mattis General Hayden

PsyGroup: Paul Manafort Roger Stone Rick Gates George Nadler Rick Davis

Good guys? Whistleblowers

Tore Patrick Bergy

Of course the influential families

BeardedNinjaPede 2 points ago +2 / -0

You definitely need to check your list twice. Roger Stone is a good guy. There may be more on your list too.

3
CuomoisaMassMurderer 3 points ago +3 / -0

Gonna find out who's naughty or nice.

Stone and Manafort both got unjustly shafted. i do believe Manafort is a bad guy and Stone a good guy, but neither are in for legitimate crime.

Make truth matter again!

Mellop 4 points ago +4 / -0

Friendly reminder: Unless you allow it to happen.

Look at the blatantly unconstitutional stuff Roosevelt got away with.
Look at what 8 years of Obama have done to this country.

And ask yourself: Would you be willing, capable, and prepared to take up arms? To go off the grid, and fight for what is rightfully yours?
More importantly, how many people could you, personally, rely on to do the same?

That's what people ought to worry about now, not when it's too late!

2
CuomoisaMassMurderer 2 points ago +2 / -0

No, having socialist policies is not the same as being socialist. Paying taxes for schools, roads, sanitation etc can be considered socialist programs. Really hard to argue that all those are bad. Marxism us really the dividing line. Doesn't matter what flavor it is, communism socialism or what. It ALL leads to mass starvation and death.
