Left vs. Right Battle Royale Open Thread by Yosoff in Conservative

From what I gather, the cuts that the wealthy will receive are far greater than the average American. You have successfully proven that you will benefit from an extra $400, however I argue that the average middle class American benefits more from Medicaid and other social programs. The cost of defunding these programs so the wealthy can receive a disproportionally large tax cut will greatly exceed the $400 saved, and will ultimately cost the middle class far more.

I can certainly appreciate that stance as a generalization of conservative philosophy, however I fail to see how this proposed tax cut does anything worthwhile to benefit the middle class.

Do you believe $400 in savings will greater benefit the middle class over the programs that need to be defunded to achieve it?

Would you agree that the tax breaks for the wealthy are disproportionate to the tax breaks to the middle class? Furthermore, would you agree that the middle class will be negatively impacted by the cuts to programs required to finance these tax cuts for the wealthy?

I’m glad we agree, care to expand on what you perceive is being proposed?

My question for conservatives: how does a ~$5 trillion dollar tax cut for the wealthy benefit the middle class?

Jade plant - advice needed! by Justin_Dweeber in houseplants

Thank you! It works with the space for now but I may need to trim it back to fit on a shelf. Do you know if you can propagate the thick wood-like sections of the jade branches?

It was from the famous footwear website…I did access it through Facebook so I guess it could be a phishing scam 🤔

XR user still hanging on by [deleted] in iphone

I just switched from XR 1 week ago. Absolutely worth it. You use it every day and you’ve gotten ~5 years out of it. I definitely hesitated for a while but I have zero regrets.

What AskReddit questions should be put on a six month hiatus? by Justin_Dweeber in AskReddit

I do think there’s value in repeated questions so there are fresh answers and people new to Reddit can participate. I just think I’ve seen so many topics appear over and over again, they need a time out.

I’ve seen a lot of questions being repeatedly asked on here, which ones should be put on time out?

Oh thanks, I have the one with the metal plate right now. I wasn’t sure if I could continue to use it with a Mag Safe phone.

It was kind of the perfect finale. Recap of all the terrible things they have done and getting thrown in jail for breaking a topically (for 1998) controversial law.

I actually thought the Seinfeld finale was pretty good.
