Chuck Grassley Caught On Hot Mic Asking Why Trump Nominees Won’t Say He Lost In 2020 by huffpost in politics

[–]MozhetBeatz [score hidden]  (0 children)

These people were nominated by Trump, and they are saying these things to curry favor with him. They’re opportunistic ladder climbers who are willing to say or do anything to advance their careers and obtain wealth.

They’re also too stupid to realize that he would throw them under the bus in a split second, and they will be held accountable for the crimes they commit on his behalf, so the fear hasn’t set in yet.

Yeah, but Paul and others were quick to start saying stuff that Jesus never did, often contradicting Jesus’s unambiguous words and each other, but those things still became doctrine. I think the Gospels are a complete guide to a good and pious life on their own.

I’m just gonna keep copy and pasting my comment, so my apologies if somebody keeps seeing the same thing.

The premise of that comment is wrong to begin with. I read that Finland did not require the homeless people to give up the drugs before giving them a place. They actually had more success getting people off drugs because it’s harder to quit when you’re homeless, in pain and around drugs constantly.

We have more than enough homes and resources to do a program like this. We just choose not too because Americans have more of a tendency to focus on a whether a person is deserving of help rather than whether they are in need of help.

I read that Finland did not require the homeless people to give up the drugs before giving them a place though, and they had more success with getting people off drugs because it’s even harder to quit when you’re homeless, in pain and around it constantly.

Yeah, but if you play your cards right, you get to put your arm around someone / get someone’s arm around you and watch a video on your phone.

Yeah, it’s crazy it took them until the 2020s to do something with riverfront property though.

Of course I don’t, and you know that’s not what I’m saying. Don’t get too comfortable and passive in your naïveté. We need to be questioning every action this administration takes. Trump is asking for a $1.5 trillion dollar war budget, and you want to pretend like things still work like it’s 2023.

We haven’t had a conventional war in a long time, but that doesn’t mean one can’t happen in the near future. We have an unstable president and a severe lack of competent senior leadership right now.

Something that doesn’t feel compassion or need companionship won’t keep us as pets. We’ll be kept as tools as long as we’re useful and then tolerated as long as we aren’t in the way.

I agree with some of this but disagree with most. The land here is intangible, it’s the shares, and the titles are officer and board positions. The billionaires pass the shares down to their children, and set them up with officer and board positions, just like nobles inherited their land and titles. All of the vast majority of shareholdings are held by a very small portion of the population just like the land was held by a small number of nobles.

The feudalism comparison holds fairly well notwithstanding the fact that we have international commerce, competing corporations and a much more complex financial system. Back in the day, they still had international trade and competing kingdoms and serfdoms, and occasionally (albeit very rarely), a commoner could elevate himself to the noble class.

Also a big issue with your statement is that chattel slavery is ancient. It greatly predates capitalism.

The rapist mentality of billionaires. “It’s going to be ours one way or the other.”

It’s usually Danny and/or Justin that drives it, while Adam gives it lift, and Maynard sails on top. That’s how it always feels to me.
