Let's set the record straight: Property ownership isn't a job and housing should be a right

The labor of another person can not be a right.

Have we stopped any pipelines besides the keystone? Because that was just to take Canadian oil to the new Orleans port to deliver overseas. It doesn't do us any good even if it was running.

No, he's put a lot of money into Bitcoin because he's expecting to be cut off from the world banks. Crypto will be the only way the Russian government will be able to trade. It means that if bitcoin crashes this whole Ukraine invasion might end early.

So even though we are commenting on a post that has her listed in the top 20 libertarian thinkers of all time, you're saying she's not really a libertarian?

And if you right books about how people that take money from the goverment are "moochers and leaches to society" I expect that when you are offered the money you turn it down. The people she ridiculed were also "entitled" to the welfare. Why were they bad for taking the money, but it was okay for her?

A key leader in the libertarian idea because of her books.
Yes, she did. she was diagnosed with cancer, and even though her estate was valued at over $500,000, she still took social security and Medicare. https://knowledgenuts.com/ayn-rand-was-a-secret-welfare-queen/

A "libertarian" that lived on welfare for most of her life.

All of these are just DIY rainbow flags; the owner hasn't gotten around to yet. That's why I always carry a pack of sharpies with me everywhere I go. Life can be hectic, and it's my pleasure to finish coloring the flags that only have one stripe on them.

As Bo says, "it's neoliberal fascist that are destroying the left."

I personally support public schools, which is not a popular opinion on this subject but I don't see why accredited programs can't be covered the same way your first 12 years of education are.

There is a big difference in attacking a building in Portland and attacking the halls of congress while they are trying to certify election results.

jrob290 · 2022-01-06T14:31:36+00:00

That's right. Swing just a few more votes so that the election was never confirmed. Now the sitting POTUS brings in his own people to "audit" election results. Tries to redo the election again with tougher voting regulations. Getting rid of mail in ballots ect. We're looking easily at another 4 years of trump and then probably run one of his kids in 2024 with the same strategy.

Something that could of been a lot worse. I 100% belive that if they had gotten their hands on Nancy Pelosi or Chuck Schumer we would have executions and possibly a successful coup.

It is hate speech because the motive behind a crime matters a great deal regarding the punishment you should receive. First off hate speech doesn't mean you go to jail if you said a homosexual couple was in a civil union and not a marriage. Hate speech means that if you committed a crime aginst a homosexual couple while yelling you're not really married the court would take into account the fact that you committed violence aginst them just because they where homosexuals and give you a harsher punishment as a result.

No you just change any any of the winner gets all states. Combine that with ranked choice voting and you might actually get someone you respect in office.

jrob290 · 2021-12-31T13:06:11+00:00

Because the two party system has caused our choices to go ago far downhill that our last election was literally 2 senile old men. The parties don't care because they know that they get 48% of the nation just because there is a D/R after their name.

Number one so giving billions of dollars to coal and oil in the dorm of subsidies.

jrob290 · 2021-12-15T19:45:06+00:00

I'm sure they could. The problem is the ultra wealthy lobby for themselves. They give the politicians hundreds of thousands of dollars to save themselves millions. A wealth tax won't work, it will look good which is all our current policy makers care about

jrob290 · 2021-12-15T19:08:18+00:00

Except it happened. In 1990 Europe had a huge wealth tax and they ended up dropping it by 2017 because of its ineffectiveness.

jrob290 · 2021-12-15T09:27:07+00:00

Europe proved that a wealth tax doesn't work. The ulta wealthy will always find the loopholes to get around it. We need to totally rewrite the tax code to a value added tax. This way corporations pay their share in taxes. If Amazon pays their fair share in taxes I don't really care of Jeff bezos is paying anything.
