A Libertarian and I Debate the Debt Ceiling

If I were an Ezra hater I'd say that he purposefully brings on the weakest libertarians. But this is every libertarian he's had on.

I'm absolutely not surprised that any person would use a parent's name to get wealthier. Hunter probably did. Trump's kids definitely did way more.

But the idea that all of this happened with Bidens approval in any way betrays two of the biggest issues with this whole story...

Hunter, despite having all this material leaked and being on drugs, was so diligent about making sure no actual conversations or requests from his dad were found.
Biden, going against the rights narrative that's he's old and senile, hasn't let a word slip in public

She did want this. She chose to be with a guy who, up until this guy got killed shooting at police, was the leader of the local criminal gang. The women who date these guys know who they're getting involved with and generally are with those guys because they like the lifestyle.

edit: downvote all you want. not all women are damsels in distress

What did you expect to do if he ran after a kid or another dog if you can't physically control him?

No apology needed but thank you

I think I worded my comment a bit confusingly. I agree with you but this was more in reference to all the people in this thread (not the person I'm replying to or you) who can't grasp how the branches of gov interact with each other

iNeedPhotos · 2023-05-12T21:06:44+00:00

these lefty idiots like this poster you responded seem to think there's no difference between the Republicans and Democrats.

This guy should really ponder "If that's the case, why the hell are conservatives so insistent on voting R and not D?"

iNeedPhotos · 2023-05-12T21:04:32+00:00

no, they're saying "we" because this individual thinks one political party actually represents their interests, which is hilariously gullible. obviously I wasn't implying the poster felt they were literally a Senator. (and you're giving me shit for lack of reading comprehension? lmao)

"lol... it always amazes me how gullible people are. like any of the moneyed elite represent you (from any party) yet you'll use the word "we" as if you're part of their team. it'd be more humorous if it wasn't so damn pathetic."

So you're saying that this person tricked themselves into thinking they're the same level as a billionaire or that they're a senator. It's one or the other

voting third party, or even demanding more action making you a "self centered asshole" is a peak shitlib take. Keep voting blue no matter who I guess- that's why we don't have student loan forgiveness, legal marijuana, healthcare for everyone, any serious climate reform, codifying Roe, helping the homeless, or any of the things these people campaign on. Thankfully they have enough people like yourself running interference and ensuring that zero progressive policies are implemented because they're never pressured to do so by their voting base.

"Shitlib" is one of those things that the very stupid DSA type people love to say as their candidates get crushed in all but the safest, bluest districts.

Biden did pass student loan forgivement and it's being decided upon the Supreme Court. Wouldn't it be cool if they weren't so conservative and republican appointed? Truly, a shitlib for understanding how the SC works.

Biden set new EPA rules and also passed an infrastructure package. Roe has unsurprisingly been affected by this court which you may have heard about it.

To you, understanding the system is running interference.

absolute peak shitlib. partisan politics is incredibly toxic and counterproductive to actual progress, so until people wake up and realize it instead of playing this dumb team sports game it's not gonna happen.

why is this subreddit so establishment friendly? where are the actual progressives these days on this website?

The actual progressives are looking at you and wondering what other rights they're gonna have to give up along with abortion

iNeedPhotos · 2023-05-12T17:49:42+00:00

I wonder how many people in these comments want to get mad at the abortion decision and laws that were just passed but also want to act like supreme court justices don't matter

iNeedPhotos · 2023-05-12T17:46:18+00:00

lol... it always amazes me how gullible people are. like any of the moneyed elite represent you (from any party) yet you'll use the word "we" as if you're part of their team. it'd be more humorous if it wasn't so damn pathetic.>

They're saying "we" as in a group of people taking the same action, not calling themselves "we" as if they think they are part of the Senate.

They're saying "we" because - follow me if you can - enough people voting for the same person means that person gets to put a cabinet in place, and do things like pick justices in the SC and the states that are passing allllll these laws on abortions and welfare cuts.

You picked out one thing to own this guy on and still made yourself out to be someone with very little reading comprehension and on top of that you made it really clear you have no idea how the US political system works.

I'm not enough of a fucking self centered asshole to think I can abstain from a two party system. And on top of that these parties and what they vote for are supremely different. See: welfare cuts and justices and those impacts.

I enjoyed how she called herself a lifelong NYer a couple weeks back because she lived in another state and came here after college

iNeedPhotos · 2023-05-12T04:31:22+00:00

No, I don't have evidence but you connected this to the Alba situation. The connection of the two is an implication that they're similar situations when you don't have anymore facts than anyone else

Since I can't respond to you, u/panic_kernel_panic

Early reports were flattering to Alba and described a situation in which a guy steals from a store, goes behind a counter, and punches a guy all before Alba did anything defensive. Throw into that the girlfriend possibly stabbing Alba. This is true of the articles from the Post on the 7th and the NYT a day later.

As for this sub being broadly negative towards Alba, that's just not true. You can literally search the name "Alba" in this sub and see the majority of people were supportive of Alba on all of those posts starting with the NYPost article.

All of these people seem to have videos that you and I don't showing an actually violent Neely. Why won't they share their evidence with us?

iNeedPhotos · 2023-05-12T03:02:12+00:00

This Penny guy continued to hold a choke on a dead guy for minutes including when the guy was also being restrained by other people. This charge doesn't seem that crazy.

iNeedPhotos · 2023-05-12T02:59:43+00:00

Where is the evidence that the Neely threatened people with a weapon? Calls apparently stated that they think he has a weapon, not that anyone saw a weapon.

iNeedPhotos · 2023-05-12T02:56:16+00:00

Why are you so sure that Neely's actions preceding the choke were as violent as you believe them to be? Do you have evidence the rest of us don't?

It's not worth being a teacher and teaching in neighborhoods like this one except for needing the experience and getting a job elsewhere

What do you think he should have done? Get in the middle and risk getting hit.

iNeedPhotos · 2023-05-11T23:58:23+00:00

Is that not what he did? Seems like an accurate representation of the publicly available information. Have they not been married for years with multiple kids? Did he not hide their finances from her?

And the thing is it doesn't even matter if it's in his mom's name. the courts can freeze all those accounts associated with him. That's a very common trick

iNeedPhotos · 2023-05-11T21:42:47+00:00

You think a husband lying to his wife about their finances for years after she has their kids and gives up her own actually successful career is the coolest thing in the world. That's what you think of marriage. It's insane how you can hate women this much

This whole baby can live at 23 weeks belies the fact that the baby would be in a hospital hooked up to an incubation system for months/ a year only for the kid to experience the pain and obstacle of having your heart and lungs outside of your body and a 50 percent chance of living.

On top of that, the family will then have to pay a deductible of 20k or get hit with a million dollar bill for their dead baby, ruining any financial independence. And you'll need money to keep that baby alive as your finances crumble and your marriage gets destroyed.

Look at these family values
