I know it costs me money that I earned for my family. My welfare education is limited to forced provider.
The real threat is and has been for decades, liberalism. That’s you pal not me. MAGA is but a slogan. It’s success as haunting to you today as it was 6 years ago. With Trump still living rent free in your head no less. Simply means reversing most of your leftist filth policies.
It really is disingenuous to call conservatives commies or Nazis especially considering the fact that your party has been seeking communism and socialism for decades. With only one thing stopping you……..us. Plenty of real comedians out of work for you to be cutting free jokes.
You would have collapsed under the weight of the pills you would have needed to match my work ethic.
Worked 56 hours a week for 15 years straight only to increase that to 96 hours a week when I started my business. Raised 2 kids and kept a house and yard nice to boot. Little time for fun.
The joke is on you it seems.

#1 That’s on the the city making the deal.#1That's the claim......generally not how it turns out in the end. In the end, the business ends up never giving back to the cities what they spent to get them there.
#2Again, a pipe dream conservatives refuse to let go of. We have seen time and again that we lose tariff wars, especially with places like China. Trump got his ass handed to him during his. You know why? Because there are more people in China than here, and in the end, you can rest assured that if given the choice between unfettered access to the buying market HERE or THERE, most businesses will choose THERE. That means anything that is going to limit that access is an immediate no go. Trump didn't give up his stupid tariff war because China capitulated to his demands....he did it because US businesses complained about the Chinese response hurting them more than ours helped them.
#3You guys SAY you are against them coming here illegally, and then turn right around and hire them anyway. That is the very definition of talking out of both sides of your mouths. The reason doesn't matter. All that reason does is help you sleep better at night. Truth of the matter is that if they actually cracked down on EVERYONE hiring them, the problem would go away overnight....but conservatives seem against any more oversight that would do something about it.
See the dilemma?
#4Bent over? There once was a time when people understood the cost of doing business. Now, the owner class has become some of the most coddled and entitled among us.
#5Nobody is saying you shouldn't make more. That said, when you make more at the expense of your employees being able to make ends meet and they end up on public assistance, that is essentially the government subsidizing you being cheap.
I understand the progressive tax system. I was speaking of myself. My tax rate fell to 22 or 25 percent. Yet another giant fail lol. Oh I got him I got him dang I don’t got him lol. Pathetic.Today I learned Daddyo doesn't understand what a marginal tax rate is.
To right wingers, it's very important to punish poor people.
Nice dodge, that was not the question he asked. You do realize that the states get federal money in Block Grants that are then subject to state laws and policies? Please tell me you know that.The 50 states don't get federal money?
You sure about that?
I am pretty sure that the last Farm Bill which regulates SNAP 100% was signed before Biden was elected POTUS.Of course they do.
Which leads to two questions:
1. How much per state is federal vs state, and
2. How did Biden allocate that money all by himself?
yeah, I want to know the household size for those numbers, because for a family in Maine to even get to Alabama levels there would need to be a HH of 9, with the Special Needs Housing allowance. But that is if the numbers are just cash benefit only, and not cash and SNAP.$39k in NH won't pay rent and bills. And certainly won't cover food and rent and bills.
And I think that number is damned dodgy. I help with qualified addicts in recovery with bennies who still need to work 50+ hours to break even.
I have this paralyzing suspicion that Daddyo won't address this.I am pretty sure that the last Farm Bill which regulates SNAP 100% was signed before Biden was elected POTUS.
<---checks, yup Dec 20, 2018. So, not Biden, eh?
No it was not a talking point until it was discovered and then yes it was a talking point.This is not true. This is a common conservative talking point meant to disrupt an election process.
Conservative voters tend to be wealthy 1% members or right-wing militia members. Sometimes they are baby boomers who seem to have been raised this way. As a general rule, the KKK and other racist groups tend to be right-leaning.
Back in the 1960s, a certain democrat president got elected because dead people voted for him, but that was an isolated incident.
#1 They are not parasites. The rest are.#1This is inaccurate. Some people cannot work and genuinely need help. Those people are not parasites, they are the sick, the injured, and generally, they are people who have no other way.
#2I dislike outsourcing of ANY kind. American companies need to bring jobs back to America or pay an 85% tax rate.
#3It's usually conservatives who hire illegal workers and they usually do this because they will work long hours for less money.
#4Business owners routinely abuse employees and take advantage of illegal workers. I have seen business owners fire people to avoid paying out workman's comp. There were businesses in the late 1880s and early 1900s that made little children work in dangerous jobs for 18 hours per day. This is neither honest nor fair.
#5Businesses are not the victims they claim to be.
#6I wish you good luck sir. Be well.
If I was a commie we would be comrades. I find it halarious that you would have the balls to call me that considering how conservative I am and how much I despise communists and socialists. Being part Cuban it’s funny to me. It seems you believe that this attack angers me. I wouldn’t give you the pleasure of allowing it to bother me. What it does however is it shows that leftist filth will say and do anything including openly lie about someone, to further their agenda. Pathetic.Sure you have. Try telling the truth for once. I know being a commie it might be hard, but give it a shot.
If it didn't bother you, you wouldn't cry about it. Conservatives like you are the new commies in this country. Anti American to the core. Only care about themselves, and piss on the Constitution for a loser named Trump. Pathetic.If I was a commie we would be comrades.

I don’t lie pal. I have also witnessed it being done by others. Several others over the years.
Leftist filth get it right. Just look at what leftists cause whenever you become empowered to govern. Nothing but filth and blight.The only filth here are the anti American piece of garbage right wingers.
I take it you are completely unaware that those numbers are horseshitI've said all along, they buy their voters with tax payer money.
What is sad, is that lefties are for sale.
So we tell you that leftist filth are destroying this country. Here is an example.
“This is how Blue states remain blue, buying votes by making people dependent. It should also be noted that states have authority over the minimum wage and we don't need a federal mandate
The Cato Institute released an updated 2014 study (original study in 1955) showing that welfare benefits pay more than a minimum wage job in 33 states and the District of Columbia .
Even worse, welfare pays more than $15 per hour in 13 states.
According to the study, welfare benefits have increased faster than minimum wage. It's now more profitable to sit at home and watch TV than it is to earn an honest day's pay.
Hawaii is the biggest offender, where welfare recipients earn $29.13 per hour, or a $60,590 yearly salary, all for doing nothing.
Here is the list of the states where the pre-tax equivalent "salary" that welfare recipients receive is higher than having a job:
1. Hawaii : $60,590
2. District of Columbia :$50,820
3. Massachusetts : $50,540
4. Connecticut : $44,370
5. New York : $43,700
6. New Jersey : $43,450
7. Rhode Island : $43,330
8. Vermont : $42,350
9. New Hampshire : $39,750
10. Maryland : $38,160
11. California : $37,160
12. Oregon : $34,300
13. Wyoming : $32,620
14. Nevada : $29,820
15. Minnesota : $29,350
16. Delaware : $29,220
17. Washington : $28,840
18. North Dakota : $28,830
19. Pennsylvania : $28,670
20. New Mexico : $27,900
21. Montana : $26,930
22. South Dakota : $26,610
23. Kansas : $26,490
24. Michigan : $26,430
25. Alaska : $26,400
26. Ohio : $26,200
27. North Carolina : $25,760
28. West Virginia : $24,900
29. Alabama : $23,310
30. Indiana : $22,900
31. Missouri : $22,800
32. Oklahoma : $22,480
33. Louisiana : $22,250
34. South Carolina : $21,91”
Paying people more money on welfare than the average job would bring promotes the use of welfare. Yet another reason why liberalism is a mental disorder.
Making America great again is a slogan. The concept used for achieving this goal is simply using the conservative governing philosophy. Things that include welfare reform. Very simple and far from the corruption you claim. In fact conservatism is actually anti corruption. It’s why we often call ourselves conservatives instead of republicans.So you endorse MAGA corruption because you feel the democratic and legislative process 'stole' from you. This is the perfect illustration of perceived deprivation if there ever was one.
#1 Biden was for a border wall and then changed. As the democrat party begins to lose its voting majority they changed. Blacks, Hispanics, and the poor support the democrat candidate with high numbers………JOE BIDEN: An unrelenting stream of immigration. Nonstop, nonstop. Folks like me who are Caucasian, of European descent, for the first time in 2017 we'll be an absolute minority in the United States of America. Absolute minority. Fewer than 50% of the people in America from then and on will be white European stock. That's not a bad thing. That’s a source of our strength.#1This is lie. It has been disproven.
#2It does not. At one time, it provided a stipend for poor people with children to use on diapers, formula, and hygiene products.
#3This is an attempt to hijack the thread. If you want to talk about this, go to the abortion thread.
#4No, it does not. That is an ancient right-wing, plantation owner frame of mind. It wasn't true then and it isn't now.
#5It's Osteen, and yes, I do. We agree on this point.
#6Once again, an attempt to hijack the thread. If you wish to discuss this, go to the abortion area.

I argue that he changed his immigration policy because he wants more population that votes for demonrats. He just showed you that he is capable of thinking on a level to include eugenics. America will be stronger with stock from third world nations lol. You guys are killing yourselves supporting this moron.
#2 At one time is not NOW. Ever hear of TCA? Also check this out….”Eligibility for benefits is based on a number of factors, including income levels and family size. Welfare beneficiaries usually receive a biweekly or monthly payment in the form of food stamps, vouchers, or even direct payments.” Even direct payments!!!!!!! You are wrong sorry. Perhaps, since I was supposedly lying earlier, you are now.
#3 Calling out the hypocrisy. I believe I was responding to someone claiming hypocrisy on our side. Hurt didn’t it? Hard to rebut sorry.
#4 entire generations of people have proved you wrong. Hooked like slaves. I deal with them daily in my business. Some even admit it. So the lie once again is your defense.
#5 don’t care who he is or the correct spelling of his name.
#6 Ouch I know. I does show your lack of critical thinking skills and hypocrisy. I wouldn’t want it put in my face either. No answer because none is possible.
So you think big U.S. public companies don't care about making a profit? And you say it's bad how they focus on getting people to keep buying their products? Sounds pretty socialist. Also, what do you think their Boards care about?Big US PUBLIC corporations do not care about where they build or even if they making a profit, they are more concerned about their stock price and they boards, until that changes our nation will subsidize the consumers to keep buying their shit.
#1 They are not parasites. The rest are.
#2 Whatever the amount of tariff the playing field can’t be so uneven. Not fair for our businesses. Now the leftists want to slap green energy bullshit on our companies.
#3 both sides hire them for the same reasons. They will out work any low income American flat out.
#4 the employee has rights and protections. They also have a right to NOT accept what is being offered for the work being done. It’s called choice. The worker is not a slave. Say no and dip. However if you say yes don’t bitch anymore you agreed. Shut up and work.
#5 Businesses don’t claim to be victims but employees often do. Like you just did. Negotiate your desired wage or go elsewhere. If you agree then close your mouth and work.
#6 Thank you and same to you.
No it was not a talking point until it was discovered and then yes it was a talking point.
And liberal voter tend to be broke welfare parasites so what’s your point? The KKK was started by democrats. There are plenty of racist groups that vote democrat like BLM and LaRaca. Plenty of down right filth that vote democrat.
