Random Politics & Religion #29: Hypocrisy Edition

Kanye the voice of a generation...a really shitty generation

And so vic... you obviously heard the "cost them millions" line before you wrote it here and you obviously thought it made sense enough to repeat it...

it never raised a question in your mind? Really?

WTF are you smoking... your not even American.

You realize almost all welfare / social programs are means tested, meaning you need to be under a certain income to qualify. Middle class are right above that income line and don't get those welfare programs while simultaneously being forced to pay for them. Obamacare is a prime example, ridiculous sums of money being taken from the middle class and used to fund healthcare for lower class.

I know it's impossible for your brain to handle this, the middle class is who gets taxed into oblivion not the wealthy. Wealthy individuals earn their income through passive investments, those investments are only taxed on the amount disbursed and at a lower rate then the federal income tax brackets used for everyone else along with a much wider set of potential deductions (it's a bit more complicated but that's the end result). Trump's plan was to reduce the number of deductions available, ones that you can take in place of the standard deduction (which low and middle class people use) while also lowering the absolute rate. Middle class would see the greatest increase in net income.

Do you even read, like actually read, the stuff or just take the sound bites off CNN / MSNBC made by a paid propagandist.

How Bots Broke the FCC's Public Comment System
Wired

It got more comments than any public comment post ever recieved even if you don't count the bots.

Because the poor are entitled to have access to the income of the professional middle class. As poor disadvantaged people it's their birthright to continue the propagation of a class of voter forever dependent on the government for subsistence, and how can they do that without the money the middle class earns by working actual jobs.

A single mother with four kids from different fathers believes she's entitled to the income from someone who spent their entire life building a career and working their *** off to rise into the middle class. That is what Vic, Zero, The Canadian and so forth are saying. They try to use "the rich" as boogeymen to justify stealing from regular average hard working people who made good life choices.

Doesn't matter, they'll vote however their told to vote anyway. The entire "Public Comment System" is a joke because they never actually bother with the feedback.

Its an interesting read nonetheless.

Dude do you even read...

Current Republican plan doesn't change much if anything in regards to the taxes the wealthy actually pay. You can't apply Obama's tax system to Trump then call it bad.

Stop commenting on American tax policy if you don't understand the American tax system that funds your national defense.

How about those Maple Leafs did you see the way that one guy shoots the puck...very impressive !

The big picture is no one gives a ***but like 3 people here.

None of whom understand their own talking points much less taxes...

Sure I'm sure the Canadian military could defend itself...soon climb up on the moose.

Our military protects your candy *** so you don't get sold back to England for a cup of tea !

Canadian national defense, like the rest of NATO, is subsidized and paid for by the USA. Peace and stability in Canada is 100% built on the USA being "World Police" and ensuring no dictator or aggressive nation decided to annex said Canada. *** yourself all you want, history is replete with aggressive nations deciding they need "room to grow" and grabing land from their neighbors. In fact I think most of World History is exactly that.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canadian_Armed_Forces

Canadian military is .. get this ... 68K with 32K in "reserve".

Size of US Military is 1.2 million with another 811K in "reserve".

And then we got all the expensive weapons platforms including the floating cities and mobile operating bases that are modern aircraft carriers.

The USA could easily cut it's defense by two thirds and have a sufficient ability to guarantee national defense, it just couldn't guarantee the national defense of the other NATO members or do much of anything else. Many Americans, including myself, want this to happen, dissolve NATO and let all the other countries in the world fend for themselves.

Short Version:
Our guy is a Democrat so we should give him a pass, their guy is an evil nasty Republican so we should draw and quarter him publicly to serve as a deterrent to others.

Article so full of *** you could use it to fertilize a corn field.

Playing ffxi isnt work vic. We all know that.

In america the top 10% of taxpayers pay over 60% of the invome tax.

Libs somehow think theyre not paying their fair share? By what measure?

That's a cool story bro did you come up with that all by yourself or did you read it on the internet.

EA's day of reckoning is here after 'Star Wars' game uproar, $3 billion in stock value wiped out
CNBC

I hope NK nukes Canada that would eliminate half the dumb *** here on FFXIAH.

Maybe they will get the message then when you spend 60 bucks you should get a full game. Not a half baked game filled with micro transactions and DLC
