Don’t let the rightwing fool you: the economy is doing well under Biden

[Ray From Cleveland]

It does not matter whether or not those programs ultimately benefit the community. They are still owned and funded by the community, facilitated by a central government.

You still haven’t explained what that phrase means.

Yes I did but you refuse to accept the answer. The community does not own anything, the government does. We fund the government to perform tasks on our behalf. Riddle me this: If the community owns the police cars, why can't you hop in one to go to the bar? After all, if you own it, you have the legal ability to do so. The reason you can't is because you and I do not own those cars, the government does, and we fund the government to own those vehicles.

I’m sorry are you suggesting that if something is funded by something else that means that something does not own that thing in some capacity? Just because the government facilitates how that police car is used does not mean it does not belong to the community in some capacity.

 

[Ray From Cleveland]

Uhh no those are private corporations. What I am talking about is an entity funded by a community and facilitated by a government. Literally part of the definition you posted.

No because only private industry actually produces things. That's what the definition means. You don't own the military, you fund the military IF you pay actual income tax which half of the people in this country don't pay.

The government facilitates how that police car is used because they own the police cars--you don't. If you and I owned them, then we would be able to use them at will, and so would every other citizen.

50 feet high huh? Where? How long is this stretch? And no, we don’t have drone tech along the entire border. If it was, can you imagine how much that would cost per year? Also think about the money required to maintain the wall itself… FOREVER.

But we do have a brain dead President that invited them in and is now dumping those illegals all across the country in the dark of night instead of sending them back. Look, idiot, we all know a contiguous wall around our country isn't doable. We put walls in strategic areas especially at our Southern border to thwart illegal border hopping. That, together with a POLICY of discouraging illegal invasions works. It worked for Trump. It has worked in the past. Biden stopped all that and now we are paying the price.

Lol I personally don’t own the military. It is still owned by the community you and I are apart of.

Just answer this question direct: what does your definition mean when it says the “community”? Who is the community?

 

[Billy000]

You’re just narrowing the definition of “ownership” to some specific, exclusive context.

Just what specific policies of Biden have made our border security weaker?

I TOLD you....If you can't or don't want to read what I write then fuck off.

Lol you aren’t citing specific laws.

 

[Faun]

Biden licks goats asses while enjoying caviar.
Hey, you believe all that other horesehit you posted above...why not this too ???

That's quite the fantasy life you lead there.

 

[Ray From Cleveland]

Then many of the things Repubs are complaining about aren’t joes problem.

How do you figure that? Who caused these problems in the first place?

 

[Faun]

Trump gave Veggie Joe a GDP avg for the last two quarters he was in office of over 17%.

Veggie Joe fucked it up.

LOLOL

Yeah, let's ignore the worst quarter in history of -31.2%.

 

[Ray From Cleveland]

You mean the wall didn’t work? Supply chain is the same. You want big gov to fix it? Markets will fix it, stop being a socialist.

The markets would have fixed it fine if the government didn't stick it's head in the process. But when the commies decided to pay people to stay home instead of work, the market can't correct that government interference. The market can't fix the problem when government tells them they must shutdown, limit it's ability to serve customers, or otherwise make their establishments too uncomfortable for them to enjoy the services.

 

[Faun]

That's just pure bullshit right there....I notice that you didn't post any back up to your claim of this ridiculousness...

Here's a real world scenario...

Let's say our fictitious worker in the middle class got a 3% raise this year...That would equal a person making $1000.00 per week now bringing in 1,030.00 per week...Now, instead of paying $150.00 for groceries, and $30 in gas for the next week, he is paying $225.00 for groceries, and $55.00 for gas...

Now tell me that he is ahead of the game....He's not...

LOL

Do you really think the forum needed more evidence you're a fucking moron??

GDP was 14.3% for Q4-2021. Factor in inflation, and it was 6.9%...

Lol you aren’t citing specific laws.

Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton sued the Biden administration Tuesday, alleging that federal authorities are illegally declining to take custody of immigrants subject to deportation who are about to be released from Texas prisons.

The result, Paxton argued, leaves Texas in a bind — forced to release "criminal aliens" or continue holding them in custody at taxpayer expense.

"President Biden’s outright refusal to enforce the law is exacerbating an unprecedented border crisis," Paxton said in a statement. "By failing to take custody of criminal aliens and giving no explanation for this reckless policy change, the Biden administration is demonstrating a blatant disregard for Texans’ and Americans’ safety."

Gas is nearly double, there are empty shelves, we have supply chain problems and now we have to worry about war with Russia. Yeah, things are fucking great....

So far the only thing that Dementia built back better is the Taliban.

Lol this is such political bullshit. What SPECIFIC Biden LAW is doing this?

 

[Ray From Cleveland]

You’re just narrowing the definition of “ownership” to some specific, exclusive context.

the definition of ownership is a person or people who owns something. Our various governments own those things, not the community. The community merely funds the things government owns.

He's breaking the law you idiot!!
