The Feds are spending $48 million to move his village. But he doesn't want to go

And you still haven't bothered to learn the actual definition of the word you love to use so much

It's funny and sad

I’m using the conservatives definition: “any time the government does somthing to help people”.

Saul Alinsky lives!

There is only one definition and that's the one in the dictionary

Like I said funny and sad

where was your defense of the dictionary when your fellow right wingers were accusing a private company of socialism?

The tards don't know socialism from a Twinkie. They only parrot the word when directed to by their favorite propagandist. The idiots have been so dumbed down, they think the definition of socialism is "Venezuela".

I regularly see right wingers flip between "Safety nets are socialism." and "Scandinavia isn't socialist!" depending on what's convenient in their effort to shoot down conversations about helping people. It's incredibly dishonest.

Or worse. Subsidies to farmers is not socialism, but food stamps are.

We were once more foundation/infrastructure intensive. Decades ago we went to human intensive. Tens of Trillions of dollars has been spent on that removing resources from foundation/infrastructure. We waste so much. Weather and buiding in some areas causes issues. But humans living massively irresponsibly is pure waste.

They know a lot actually. I think the truth of it is they don't care how dishonest their argument is. They don't want their taxed income to go towards helping people they see as beneath them, unworthy.

I hear that pigpence is flying in on a C130 that is absolutely packed with paper towels to throw to the citizenry.

How freaking crazy can they get? The Vice President tours a disaster area and they call it socialism.

 

[g5000]

This would be a good time for a government shutdown.

We know the definition of stupid is g5000

I love how the right wing tards stand around with one hand on their asses & the other hand out looking for a handout every time a disaster strikes, then raaaaaaant about big gubmint.

Enjoy your river, lake, ocean front views. Now bail your own asses out.

they learned it from you Repubs doing the same thing when Obama paid out for Fed disasters.

I think they're saying the money getting repeatedly handed out to the ppl who live in flood plains is socialism.

The V.P. can go wherever he wants and remind us we're better with Trump as President.

Oh good. Now people can stop referring to social safety nets as socialism in a dishonest attempt to poison the conversation.

Word !

Hey cons . Find me a thread that correctly uses the socialism tag.

Feel free to review every AOC thread .

Don't pretend that it's only one herd of political sheep that define socialism incorrectly

I have only ever used one definition of the word in any of my posts

And I don't know to what you are referring as i don't read every single thread here.

And I wish you people would make up your minds as to if i am "right wing" or "left wing" as many of you people seem to think I am both

Occasional Cortex uses the wrong definition too

Ugh. Not this stupid shit again.

It isnt socialism but it is unconstitutional

Flood relief is unconstitutional? In this era of appeasing the king's emergency declarations I dunno.

It sounds like we're both against the repeated flood bailouts so we're splitting the hairs of diction though.

The fed gov cant hand out tax money to regional and local disasters. There is nothing in the constitution that gives them that power.
Back in the 1800s, savannah georgia had a horrible fire that wiped out most of the city. The fed gov told them no. they didnt have that power. Of course, they do just about whatever they want now. All they have to do is get their political activists appointed by congresss.

OK, so Congress didn't do something in the past. They allowed slavery. When it was outlawed, that changing something that they allowed in the past, correct? Is that a good thing or a bad thing?

What does that have to do with the fed gov not having authority to relieve regional and local populations?
My point in bringing that up was that sometimes washington does something right.

Except in this case, the federal government is doing something right by assisting those impacted by the flooding.

A fire is a little different from a flood. In a few minutes it is over and you start to rebuild. Flooding sometimes takes weeks or months. You do realize most of the moneys from FEMA go to the state and local governments to repair infrastructure damaged by the hurricanes, tornadoes, forest fires, etc. My daughter-in-law's family was wiped out by a tropical storm which flooded an area that had never flooded since the first settlers reached North Carolina. They are still waiting to get back into their home.
