I suppose, you could sacrifice a bunch of rights and financially hook up with China or inadvertently support something stupid like that taking place today.(07-30-2020, 11:24 PM)Classic-Xer Wrote:(07-30-2020, 10:45 PM),Ragnarök_62 Wrote: Things got this way after 40 years of "lower my taxes, get rid of regulation" Republican policies. Here's the deal, I'm going with the Zombie because Trump wants to take away my Social Security/Medicare , worker safety, etc. No more shrddeding the remaining safety nets by Republicans. They've destroyed enough enough already. That's a red line for me. Since the Republicans are still at this project , I'll vote for even a yellow dog, over Trump and any Republican down ticket.
As for shots, "like the old days".. I have a problem with that also. Every civilized country in the world has publicly funded shots, except for the US. As for the Covid shot, it's not going to be free either. This is stupid. Healthcare should never be a privately supplied service. People over profits! The American Right fat cats are the ones who are the most about the benjamins. That's the problem. As for China, I don't care about that issue either. If anyone has a problem with China, it's the American fatcats who made China what is today. If China wants to take stuff away from "American" companies, fine. Let those fuckers pay for the mistake they made , chasing cheap labor. Fuck 'em. "American" companies can eat shit and die. It's all about the benjamins for me, just enough to not be on the streets or starving. If AOC want's poor people to have more, more power to here.
Yes, I know damn well Biden bad, but the Republicans have done jumped the shark. At least there's a chance the youngins and Bernie can light a fire under some butts who want to to be Neoliberals/Neocons.
How is Trump going to take away our social security, medicare, worker protections without American support? Like I said, you have to stop think like a Democrat and start thinking like an American. I was a typical American worker too at one time. As a matter of fact, I don't know a Republican voter/supporter who isn't/wasn't a typical American worker these days. Dude, the safety nets are being watered down (inadequately funded) by all the added financial commitments and obligations. We have to break free from the bulk of liberal commitments and the only candidate that I've seen trying to do it so far is Trump. One other thing, YOU PEOPLE ARE LIVING OFF OUR PROFITS and Projected Profits. Me, I'll be happy to keep my profits and let/ watch you people die under the Democratic regime. You see, I don't owe you or the Democratic party shit.
There are interests who want to see labor unions gutted, and who want to abandon Medicare and Social Security to the private sector. There are people who want to privatize the postal service and the highways to monopolistic gougers. Such people want extreme disparities of economic results even if such kills people through hunger and medical disasters.
People like that are the best friends that revolutionary socialists of the Marxist-Leninist type have... the sorts of people who make a proletarian revolution inevitable at the time of a military debacle or natural disaster.
Wanton cruelty is the basis of great evil.
