George Carlin sums it all up.

Where is that $1.87 Trump gas you all bragged about when Biden was president?

Hmmm...

All we need is a pandemic and the stoppage of society to get it again..

Shhhh! They never took that into account. It ruined their anti-Biden narrative.

Profanity warning, but this is a nice summary of the way this country operates. And it's getting worse!

"The upper class keeps all of the money, pays none of the taxes. The middle class pays all of taxes, does all of the work. The poor are there just to scare the shit out of the middle class. Keep 'em showing up at those jobs"

Classic.

One of my favorites. It always reminds of another video that reveals a higher institution determined the system is a farce, and the folks on the far right of that chart run the system. .. . .

No matter how much you and the other parties hate each other, it is still a class war that we are living under, not a political war.
The rich are winning the war thanks to dupes who suck politician's asses and support their liars and theives.

Both political parties run the "system".

Both political parties run the "system".

The folks that "run," the system have no political party, that is just a useful tool to keep the plebes distracted.

I believe he said those words over 20 years ago. It’s only gotten much worse but dumb Americans cling to myths about their country being the greatest ever, and can’t accept the obvious fact Carlin is right.

He was right then and it's still right today. We just lived through the worst four years of what he said under creepy joe.

 

[jc456]

Both political parties run the "system".

or, just maybe, someone runs them?

Hmmm...

g, you promised to go conservative in your treatise. Now, deliver!

 

[Mashmont]

I have contempt for the man..

Have you no decency? Trump is a once-a-century great president, perhaps the greatest of all time. Even ahead of the immortal Washington. That's some pretty lofty company.

 

[Mashmont]

They wre lower in the summer of 2000 thank Clintoon.

Love your parody of Clintoon's name, as in Cartoon.

g, you promised to go conservative in your treatise. Now, deliver!

I am being conservative. MAGA has no idea what conservative is.

Are you kidding? Trump is the most conservative-governing president in 100 years.

Absolutely right. We’re in a class war, only the super rich class knows it and is easily winning the fight. When the vast majority of the lower classes doesn’t even know or refuses to admit it’s a class war, they easily lose the fight. The really dumb ones scream you’re a Commie!

Great summation here…
Why You Should Hate the Rich Even More (w/ Rob Larson)
The ultra-wealthy hover above the realities of the world around them like extraterrestrial aliens. Their material reality physically separates them from the rest of society with gated communities and private jets but paradoxically, their very wealth also severs them psychologically, unable to understand the reality of the 99%.

Larson begins by bringing attention to basic data points that nakedly reflect the state of the world and particularly the U.S. when it comes to wealth inequality. “[The] richest 1% owned 35% of all US wealth and that’s cash, that’s real estate, that’s all kinds of investment portfolio assets… the bottom 50% of all US households, very similar to the bottom half in most regions of the world, you’re looking at about 1.5% of the national wealth is owned by that half of the population,” he explains.

This gross wealth imbalance produces a number of problems within a society, including the wealthy’s overreaching influence into policymaking. Tax breaks, deregulation and other neoliberal doctrines have defined the last few decades of American politics, and that imbalance means “that’s more cash chasing the same number of assets, and it just tends to have the effect of hideously inflating every asset market, making housing out of reach for so many people, making the market absurdly overpriced,” Larson spells out.

Hedges and Larson go on to describe the evolution of elites and the psychology behind handling obscene wealth, from personal relationships to the way they dress. Both agree, however, that it is possible to continue the fight against this inequality through labor organizing and local community building.

again, everyone has nothing without the rich. You all still haven't explained how they get a different tax code than everyone else. Perhaps you can explain it for us.

 

[g5000]

Are you kidding? Trump is the most conservative-governing president in 100 years.

I rest my case. You have no idea what a conservative is.

Let me show what a conservative is NOT.

Committing prolific adultery not conservative.

Stealing from cancer kids is not conservative.

Pathologically lying is not conservative.

Bearing false witness daily is not conservative. False witness is not the same as lying. It is much, much worse.

Adding nearly a third of all federal debt of all 47 presidents COMBINED is especially not conservative.

A far left protectionist tariff war is DEFINITELY not conservative.

Sucking up to communist dictators is as far from conservatism as it gets.

Creating a fake university to bilk senior citizens is not conservative.

Sleeping with porn stars while your wife is home with your newborn is not conservative.

Cheating investors, banks, insurance companies, and the aforementioned cancer kids and the elderly is not conservative.

You poor slobs ignore all of Trump's many disgusting behaviors and his anti-conservative policies and his RECORD OVERSPENDING and tell yourselves he is the most conservative president EVAH!?!!

Are you ******* kidding me???


This is what I mean when I say the MAGA cult has NO IDEA how far off the reservation they have been led.

I warned this would happen. Way back in 2016. Over and over.

You don’t know? Really?

It’s not hard to understand when you realize our government is for sale to the highest bidder. Now do you understand why the tax code benefits the super rich?

Well then, that shows you how bad of a job Biden and Harris did.

Case closed.
