If the plebian Marxists understood it, anyway. The elite Marxists are getting rich off of it. That's always been the problem with Marxism. Two groups benefit- the absolute laziest and the absolute greediest. Everything and everyone in between suffers from and pays for their greed and their own stupidity if they go along with it.
Future democrat voters. The party of weirdos
That's well put; genuinely, there's no greater enemy of the middle class than the Marxist.
Testing the waters.
If the Chinese landed on Zuma Beach, they could quell all resistance with Legos, rainbow unicorn fanny packs, and Starbucks, and take most of the state within an hour.
That is an outstanding post. So true and spot on.Everyone should be very skeptical of people whose business model is to profit off of you getting sick and continuing an endless supply of masking things with pills. Hell, Purdue Pharma single-handedly created the opioid crisis.
But the way the government acted with this mRNA garbage was the biggest tell. The propaganda and response levied at the public were insane and so obviously disproportionate to reality. The first thing to question is the government pretending to give a single shit about your well-being. They don't. They care about power and money. That's it.
Second, they let their little foot soldiers riot throughout the country after telling you to stay inside your house, closed gyms, took off basketball rims, filled skate parks with sand, locked down beaches, etc. They shut your business down and your kids' school and tried to divide your family and friends with masking BS while they ate at fancy restaurants and got salon treatment. They tried to bribe people with cheeseburgers, donuts, and lotteries.
It took absolutely no time to be proven correct that their narrative and their shot were a lie. But COVID was the greatest social experiment ever done on this country. You found out where people's lines were, how quickly they could turn on someone, how they would gladly bend the knee to bureaucrats they had never even met, and so much more.
You had people getting the shot so they could go on a cruise (LOL) or go on a date or because HR sent some "scary" letter saying they had to. That's how little it took for people to gladly eat shit and then freak out and mock those who actually had the courage and conviction to withstand this nonsense.
So many view COVID as a religion. The rituals, the false comfort of using masks as a safety blanket (LOL), waiting to be told by the high priest if it's okay to live their life. You still see these lunatics out in public and it's so pathetic.
We saw it first hand. Governors and officials would shut down their states, require masks and restrict people from even working. Then they would hop on a jet, come to Florida and lay out on our beaches and go to our restaurants and night clubs.
Florida did get some good news during Covid. The Florida Surgeon General left a high post at Stanford University in California and moved to become the highest ranking medical doctor . He guided the state through Covid and did the opposite of what California was calliing for. No masks, no mandatory vaccines and no locking down the State. Businesses stayed open and thrived. Even liberals were coming down to enjoy their lives.
The result was a healthy people and healthy economy that gave the state a 22 billion dollar surplus.
If the left hadn't already cut-off its noses to spite its faces, it might read this and realize how thoroughly it's been played. They're so thoroughly corrupted and programmed, so completely clueless, that they probably would now declare Blackrock and the rest saviors of some sort. Absolute idiots
It’s unfair to say Purdue single-handedly created the opioid crisis.
There are government officials (FDA, etc.) who should be hung in the public square for their contributions. The hey we’re supposed to be a line of defense.

You can bet Fauci had his monkey paws all over it. There's a reason he managed to stay in his Gov position for close to 40 years. He made a lot of people very wealthy.
This is what degeneracy looks like. It’s painful to look at.
Thanks to GOVERMENT GUARANTEED loans. When tuition sky rocketed.
Doing my cardio on elliptical this morning.. Told my wife what my heart rate was. Then, my apple watch asked me if it should call 911. 😂.

Just a quick follow up to a post I made several days ago about being in line at the Denver airport and the 20-ish girl collapsing into tears because she had to gate check her bag because overhead bins were full. Complete meltdown over a very minor and very common hiccup.
My wife works at a university as director of admittance for Nursing School students (highly competitive for limited spots). One of the faculty told her yesterday that, during the first week of class in anatomy (I believe - it was one of the initial classes in the curriculum regardless and the FIRST WEEK of the semester), SEVERAL students began weeping in class because they felt so overwhelmed. So, these students, presumably better than average or they wouldn't have been admitted to the program, are studying to obtain a major in a field that will entail various degrees of stress in their everyday job and they find the initial classes in this major so overwhelming that they melt down into tears? Well, that bodes well for their future patients, right?
WTF is going on with these 20-somethings? At least from these two incidents, one could be led to believe that they cannot handle stress of everyday life. Nature or nurture? I'm guessing parenting (lack of) skills have a lot to do with this.

Government run schools are driving young people crazy. Parents get your kids out of these indoctrination centers ASAP.

Back last year, there was a chicken wing shortage. Restaurants who relied on them were largely affected and had to raise prices, sometimes drastically. they were literally being rationed to restaurants if you didn't cut certain deals. hell, KFC of all places had restaurants running out of certain kinds of chicken. I work in the restaurant industry, so I saw if first hand. That problem eased up later in the year and things are now almost back to normal regarding wings. So my question is this. If the Avian flu is to blame, then why is it only affecting egg production? why isn't there still a full on chicken shortage?
Ghislaine Maxwell says she believes Epstein was murdered in prison

Government-run schools, social media, and females are on more anti-depressants than any other time in our history. All contributing factors. They have been brought up to be entitled and not be able to handle any adversity at all.
I agree. College tuition is outrageous. Universities have become bloated with over paid professors and most could trim back 50% and still make millions.
When certain universities have billion dollar endowments and still charge outrageous tuition something is wrong.
And they are making countless $$$ off of tv contracts related to football and basketball on top of all those tuition/housing $$$.
She's not alone. Millions of other folks also believe he was murdered.Ghislaine Maxwell says she believes Epstein was murdered in prison

College tuition cost is simple supply and demand. Elite schools accept less than 10% of the people who apply seeking the privilege of paying those exorbitant costs. How do so many people have the money to pay? Student loan availablity. If you could get a car loan as easily as a student loan, each of us would be driving luxury cars.
I think I quit playing when Atari went beyond the joystick and one button.
We’ve been over this ad nauseam but fetal homicide laws illustrate exactly how a fetus is not legally considered a person. If it was you wouldn’t need them, it would already be covered under regular homicide. But it isn’t, so a special fetal homicide law is required.
"equitable economic growth" makes it in the quote as well...of course

First on CNN: Classified documents found at Pence's Indiana home | CNN Politics
A lawyer for former Vice President Mike Pence discovered about a dozen documents marked as classified at Pence's Indiana home last week, and he has turned those classified records over to the FBI, multiple sources familiar with the matter told CNN.
It is funny how the world advanced in the 19th century giving way to the 20th that was probably the greatest era in U.S. history.
Those uneducated folks fought two World Wars, worked out of The Great Depression, put men on the moon and made America the greatest nation in world history.
Now we have this "educated" society that is so intelligent we had to stop teaching cursive writing in schools because they couldn't figure it out. These educated fools. "Print your name Jimmy, cursive is too complicated."
My plumber and electrician can write in cursive and they drive expensive cars and live in very nice neighborhoods.
At this point, who DOESN’T have classified documents in their home?Lmao 😍

Donald Trump better get as far away from Lindsey Graham as he possibly can. I have reached the point that everything Graham stands for I am against. Calling him a snake is an insult to snakes.
Drop him Trump.
I bet @55wildcat has classified documents on taco bell at his house.
It all started when spanking stopped and that idiotic "timeout" nonsense started.
Many associate Marxism with an abolition of private property and normalization of compensation. Soviets confiscating mansions and giving a room to every family. Paying doctors the same as ditch diggers. I catch heat here for associating myself with Marx and not rejecting that rhetoric out-of-hand, but I do not and have not advocated for any of that.
What I advocate for is simply a floor and a ceiling. Most advanced nations on earth have a social safety net floor to support those who fall through the cracks. It varies from country to country, but it is a generally agreed upon economic benefit to support the least fortunate so that they can have a stable platform to use to become more productive. America does it. The issue with ours is that there are many bureaucratic hoops to jump through to qualify, which just wastes time for the person involved managing their benefits instead of improving their skill set for working. Combine that with the loss of benefits when you pass a certain income threshold and it means you actually do worse for more effort, creating a ‘welfare trap’.
I believe the answer to this is normalization of benefits. Give everyone a basic minimal sum. No hoops to jump through and so no giant government bureaucracies to monitor them. Everyone has enough for basic low-income housing and potatoes. Now people have no excuse. If they squander that all of society knows they did and they have no one to blame but themselves. But the real working poor don’t have to worry as much about putting food on the table or navigating complicated government programs. They can put time into improving their skill set for society and their personal lives for themselves.
How do we pay for that? Well that’s always the rub, but the short answer is two ways. The first being the massive cutting in unelected government workers that currently administer all these disparate programs. We piss away so much money and time monitoring compliance for no benefit. I mean in most countries you don’t even have to file your stupid taxes, it’s done automatically.
The second source of funding being the aforementioned ceiling. The median net worth in America is about 120k. If you have a million dollars in personal wealth you’re doing pretty well. Not struggling. A million dollars is a lot of money. Now compare that to Bill Gates. He has around 100 billion roughly. The Staircase Analogy:
We’re on step one. A millionaire is on step ten less than halfway to the second floor. Bill Gates is on the 47,600th floor. Everyone should agree that is completely absurd and not an efficient distribution of resources. That money should be reinvested in society to allow others to prosper like he did. No one person, regardless of what they do or make, is worth that much more than another.The Staircase Analogy:
Lets say every stair step in a stairwell is 100k of net worth.
The average American is between the 1st and second step, at ~121k.
A Millionaire is on step 10, just about halfway to the second floor.
A Billionaire is on the 476th floor.
When the Billionaire looks down the stairwell, down 476 floors worth of stairs, the Millionaire and the average American both may as well be on step 0.
To the Billionaire, the difference between the Millionaire and a homeless person is a rounding error.
And that's for a net worth of exactly 1 Billion.
The Burj Khalifa only has 163 floors.
To multi-billionaires, we're all worthless.
That's circular nonsense. How can you kill what isn't alive?
