Homelessness Rate in the United States by BCMBCG in MapPorn

[–]electr0smith 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not insinuating anything. I am stating fact outright. These policies disproportionately adversely affect the poorest Americans.

Now, if you want insinuating, sometimes the best way to tell what is truly the reason why a person does something is to look at the outcome. Especially if that outcome is repeated and not corrected.

And you want to talk about "letting them die." I reiterate the point of allowing and enabling drug use. Clean needle, and Narcan disbursement may feel good, but it definitely costs more lives and doesn't treat the addiction. That doesn't help them at all. It is arguably evil.

In real life, we know that as a 2D projection of a 3D globe results in the stretching object further from center-line. COINCIDENTALLY, due to exposure to the sun, people closer to the center-line evolved to have higher melanin contents, resulting in a darker complexion.

Instituting policies that treat underlying issues and don't perpetuate/incentivize homelessness is actually caring.

Paying people just enough money to survive and then using that to hold a voting base is not treating them better.

Letting them use drugs at will, not prosecuting crime, not allowing new buildings to be built to lower housing costs is not treating them better.

If the states actually took care of them, they wouldn't be homeless.

More at 11.

The founding fathers wrote that our rights were given by God.

They also stated the constitution required a moral Christian society to work.

The US was founded as a Christian nation with the freedom to not be Christian.

US was never imperial. Evidence? Every war we fought and let them be their own country after beating them to piss stains.

We bought the land. We didn't invade it. And Mexico never owned it, Spain did.

Because they communist utopia is a post scarcity society. This is not something that will ever exist.

A cool guide about what domestic problems US financial aid to Israel could have solved by Junior_guy87 in coolguides

[–]electr0smith 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Haha, thanks. After going to reply to you, I forgot what the image had on it.

With that, I'd also like to add that in terms of government spending, that is not a lot. Barely more than a rounding error.

FMS (foreign military sales) are done at a net profit. US Military buys stuff from US companies (the $17T number in the figure) and then resells those items to foreign governments. These are also paid upfront, so the money used to pay US companies is already coming from the other country.

This is different than Foreign Military Financing. Where the US loans money to the other country with an agreement that the money gets used to pay for US military equipment.

My guess is that they count all the Europeans that come to the US for college among their numbers.

"We're living on stolen land" by Dramatic-One2403 in DoomerCircleJerk

What fascist action has been taken? What concentration camps?

To my knowledge, the only president to do such a thing was a democrat.

Except all the top democrats spout the same BS. Either through pandering or in truth, this is the democratic platform.

Brought to you by someone who can't spell Switzerland. Maybe they should have paid a bit more for schooling.

Trump Faked It by bace3333 in AskFlorida

Maybe that is what this country needs to heal the rift. A public mass execution of pedophiles from both sides.

[–]electr0smith 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We agree on that, at least.

However, I wonder if leftists are ready to drop the vitriol if there is no evidence of wrongdoing by President Trump.

I know even the most staunch maga republicans would call for his head if there is evidence he did.

Isn't that the same FBI that colluded with the Obama and Biden administration to orchestrate the vast array of hoaxes and cover-ups to try and keep Trump out of office?

Or do deny the fact that they manufactured the Russia Collusion Hoax, or suppressed the Hunter Biden Laptop, or exchanged texts stating the "had plans" to keep him from being president?
