Of course raising taxes on wealthy people will just make the wealthy people who control politics put someone like Trump in to lower the taxes. The solution is to get rich people away from controlling the government. Having Proportional Representation. How do you do this or that is neither...

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cql7eennngvo Was reading an article about Andy Mycock and his life with his surname. Then it says "I am not above laughing at other people's surnames. I think of the late Labour MP Seymour Cocks, for example." So I looked it up, yes, the man exists and has...

Maybe he'd owe the IRS less if the billionaires paid their fair share.

Well, I've spoken about this before. It depends on how much of the government services you use. Clearly richer people use more government services than poorer people. Rich people have a pool of workers who have been educated, usually at government expense, they use the infrastructure in...

And?

If everyone has to pay taxes on thing, and these people are paying less than that, then they're not paying enough. Even if they're paying 90% of the taxes in the country (according to their math), it doesn't matter. They need to be paying their FAIR SHARE. Not spending loads of money getting...

Hell holes where kids don't get killed in flash floods because they actually spent money on warning systems?

It doesn't take that many. Especially in electoral systems like FPTP where there isn't much choice. The Nazis had Proportional Representation, but one where small parties were getting in. Germany's PR leads to 6 parties -ish, Denmark's leads to 10 parties. In 1932 there were 14 parties, all but...

Well, I've always said the US should move into the twentieth century, at least, and get Proportional Representation. But.... Trump comes across as a corrupt guy who insults everyone. People didn't vote FOR TRUMP. They voted AGAINST Trump and Kamala, or Hillary. People are often fed up with...

Imagine that people are completely incapable of looking at all the lies and seeing them. And people wonder how Germany ended up being Nazi.

Of course. Anyone who disagrees with you, must be "loony" or "TDS" or some other childish bullshit. Grow the **** up.

You mean, they're women? The difference between Obama in 2012 and Hilary in 2016 was.... Florida, Iowa, Michigan, Maine 2nd Congressional district, Ohio, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin. Florida went from 50.01% to 47.82% Iowa went from 51.99% to 41.74% Michigan went from 54.21% to 47.27% Maine...

You live in some ******* fantasy world. Trump claimed a picture of him looking like he's supposed to be JESUS, Trump says "I thought it was a doctor" Come off it. Either he's so ******* stupid he thought that was a doctor, and nobody that ******* stupid should be president, or he's lying...

You'd think that most of MAGA would find that endearing, seeing as that's basically how they also communicate.

Oh bullshit. This chart is his first presidency. He's got worse in his second. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/False_or_misleading_statements_by_Donald_Trump "Steve Bannon, Trump's 2016 presidential campaign CEO and chief strategist during the first seven months of Trump's first...
