It was always a scam. Just taken a little longer for some to catch on.

If you're more interested in preaching to the choir inside your pointy-hat echo chamber, have a blast.

My post says the opposite of that. Are you intentionally pretending to have zero comprehension of context or is it authentic? Let me lay it out for you as though you've never spoken a human language before. The very first words of my post require context to understand. In the English language, you don't have to, and usually don't, repeat words and phrases when their meaning is obvious from context.

So you think Ukraine is a different, separate place and people from Russia? Interesting.

One millisecond of searching shows that it's a Ukranian word that means blacksmith. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Koval_(surname) Your link gives single-digit numbers of genealogy results per country. There's almost no name that wouldn't show as Jewish if you use this as your standard for whether someone is a Jew. "Smith" has 65 times as many results as "Koval." Is every Smith a Jew?

Which tariff revenues should be used to cover IVF? Baby formula? Diapers?

This is just who Russians are at their core. You can take them and move them to Florida but it's not going to change their nature.

Are all of your political positions derived from bumper stickers?

What does any of that screed have to do with what I said? I didn't say any of the things that you claim I did. Racists make race-based arguments against immigration. If your arguments are not based on the race of the immigrants then that statement doesn't apply to you. It's not that hard to understand.

In your previous post you seemed to understand that there had been a law and that law was then changed. Are you now confused by that concept?

The revenues from tariffs could never pay for the size of your police state.

You're upset that the statute was expanded to apply to all infants? Are there some children that you think should not be provided protection under the law and good medical practice?

It has not been changed. That's always been the language of the bill.

Here's the new bill: https://www.revisor.mn.gov/statutes/cite/145.423

What if none of that is true and they're lying to you?

They had a couple hundred years with it and they decided to turn it into an half-abandoned den of opioid addicts. I guess it's in their nature, y'know. That and suicide are the two things white men are best at.

I can always count on you to prove my point

I'm not sure that you, of all people, should be casting aspersions on other people's religions.

The reason they don't is that would be treating the Haitians as individuals, as people. Saying that they're hostile, invading barbarians who eat pets casts them as an unstoppable, subhuman force of nature. See also: Trump's weird tangent about how strong and muscular they are. Racists live in a weird alternate reality where everything is innate. That's how you end up with the bizarre logic loop that Haiti is the way it is because of the nature of Haitians but also Haitians are the way they are because of the environment of Haiti. And thus their only argument against immigration is based on the inferior or hostile genetic nature of immigrants. Their entire worldview is threatened by the reality that Haitians can move to Ohio, hold jobs, raise families, etc. without doing imagined "Haitian things" like eating pets (?), stealing cows (???), or becoming cannibals (?????).

He has been Chosen and will remain anointed and above fault until one day he is inevitably cast aside by the great orange one. See also: The horrid mess that was Trump's entire cabinet.

In this thread: Trumpkins literally cannot admit that their orange savior has ever been wrong about anything.

I'm glad that you realize that nobody actually knows the shape of the latter curve. The rich also make virtually all the income. If you were paid $7,000 an hour every hour since the birth of Christ you still wouldn't have as much money as Jeff Bezos.

Fuck's sake. What's the slope of the Laffer curve? Better yet, what's the equation for it? Children and retirees file tax returns.

You say we know but there's no evidence to support that. We could just as easily be over or under the peak. That stat is overused. Most of that 50% is retirees and children.

Now they're eating cows???

What does the dirt have to do with that? Spirit cooking?

I agree and disagree. I think that taxation is the most effective antidote to spending. The whole reason we're in this situation is that people no longer see government spending come out of their paychecks and so they're under the impression that it isn't costing them. They may understand at some level that it's baked in to the inflation rate and other economic factors but that's all extremely abstract.

I don't give a shit what government revenues are, so long as they match government expenditures. Way too many people who claim to be against the government's debt-based spending end up advocating for it through their aversion to taxes. Decades and decades of tax cuts thinking that those cuts would limit the size of government. How's that working out for us?
