Nobody says people stop working and live off the dole

For generation after generation after generation, women purchase their own hygiene products. But all of a sudden, the left advocates to “live off the dole” and insistst that tax payers owe women their hygiene products.

I have zero interest in whatever sort of feminine hygiene products a bureaucracy would choose for me. Doubtless they would not be chosen based on the qualities I would consider important (probably whatever they could get cheapest in bulk from whomever offered the best kickback), and I much prefer to make those choices myself.

I don’t think anyone is handing out free tampons

I think conservatives are outraged that women can use food stamps to buy them.........Yucky.

Giving tampons = SOCIALISM

Your race card is worn out.

In your fantasy world, if a rational student of history rejects a political ideology that has failed 100% of the time it's been tried--If a rational student of history rejects a political ideology that has caused untold misery and murder of millions, you state that person is a racist. That is nothing less than proof of a scrambled, mentally ill mind.

Okay, buddy... going to explain this to you one more time. What you whine about Socialism could be equally applied to Capitalism. Capitalism has failed most of the times it's been tried, and has caused untold misery and killed millions of people.

Now, personally, I worry a bit that the radicals like Oscio and Bernie are becoming a louder voice in the DNC... We've already got one party dominated by the crazies..

But you have to ask yourself why "Democratic Socialism" has appeal to so many young people. Could it possibly be because they watch their parents work themselves to death paying off debts to the one percent?

You guys like to whine about what an awful place Cuba is under Castro, without talking about what a miserable place it was under Batista, which is why Castro took power to start with.

You really need new material or learn how to read a history book. I'm guessing you'll stick with the race card. Please do so. We need more rational, patriotic, working Democrats to be embarrassed by your silly antics and Walk Away.

Yeah, buddy, the only people I see saying Walk Away were the same ones who vote for the Weird Mormon Robot in 2012.

Trump's approval is still underwater for a good reason, and the Dems are leading by 8% in the generic ballot.

Ah the fake former republican praising Castro........I love calling liars like you out.
Cuba was way better off under Batista. Sure he was a dick and a dictator, but so was Castro......We didn't have boatloads of people fleeing Batista, but we did with Castro, because his regime was much worse. Under Batista, we could visit Cuba, they had economic development, under Castro, the same socialist shit hole look as every other socialist country.

Your ignorance amazes me. Why post on issues you know NOTHING about, when you can be so easily exposed?

See some history here:
Fulgencio Batista - Wikipedia

 

[Cecilie1200]

Okay, so back to Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.

On the Middle East:

"I also think that what people are starting to see, at least, in the occupation of Palestine, is just an increasing crisis of humanitarian condition. And that, to me, is just where I tend to come from on this issue."

Q: "You use the term 'the occupation of Palestine.' What do you mean by that?"

"Um... I think what I meant is ... like ... the settlements that are increasing in some of these areas and places where Palestinians are experiencing difficulty in access to their housing and homes."

On her own political self-identification:

"First of all, there's a huge difference between socialism and Democratic socialism. Democratic socialism, and really what that boils down to me, is the basic belief that I believe that in a moral and wealthy America and a moral and modern America, no person should be too poor to live in this country."

Campaigning for Democrats:

"Hello everybody. I'm so excited to be hopping on here, on Senator Sanders' account, and we're here in Kansas City to rally for Brent Welder. We're going to flip this seat red in November."

She's actually probably right about that, but not the way she wants to be.

On the validity and appeal of her own politics:

“I knew that if we were going to win the way that progressives win on an unapologetic message is by expanding the electorate. That’s the only way that we can win strategically. It’s not by rushing to the center, it’s not … spending all of our energy trying to win over people who have different opinions.”

On being mocked by political opponents via obvious satire:

"Republicans are so scared of me that they’re faking videos and presenting them as real on Facebook because they can’t deal with reality anymore."

They had to have recruited this chick from a Mensa meeting. That's the only possible explanation.

Fulgencio Batista - Wikipedia

So which point are you disputing? And if it's all of them, pick one.....and tell me how im wrong.

for example on the economy I was right...using your source

Upon his seizure of power, Batista inherited a country that was relatively prosperous for Latin America. Although a third of the population still lived in poverty, Cuba was one of the five most developed countries in the region, according to the figures of the government of Batista.[45] In the 1950s, Cuba's gross domestic product (GDP) per capita was roughly equal to that of Italy at the time, although Cuba's per-capita GDP was still only a sixth of that of the United States.[46] Moreover, although corruption and inequality were rife under Batista, Cuban industrial workers' wages rose significantly.[46] According to the International Labour Organization, the average industrial salary in Cuba was the world's eighth-highest in 1958, and the average agricultural wage was higher than some European nations. However, despite an array of positive indicators, in 1953, the average Cuban family only had an income of $6.00 a week, 15% to 20% of the labor force was chronically unemployed, and only a third of the homes had running water.


the economy was good under Batista....as it was pre Batista...when did it go to shit? yep, CASTRO....that's when. Thank you for proving me correct on this.

This Congressman Is Fighting To Bring Free Tampons To The Hill | HuffPost

Conservative Snowflakes get offended over the most mundane shit.....

When Rep. Sean Patrick Maloney (D-N.Y.) realized his office didn’t have tampons for female employees and visitors, he ordered a bunch ― the same way he orders other basic supplies like paper towels, Band-Aids and hand sanitizer.

Maloney submitted receipts for his expenditures to the finance office of the Committee on House Administration for reimbursement. This week, he received an email stating that every purchase had been approved except for one ― the $37 he spent on menstrual hygiene products.

He was told that tampons are a “personal care” item, not an “office supply” item, and that he had to cover the cost of the tampons. Maloney wrote the check and is now urging the committee to include tampons and sanitary pads in its list of acceptable items that government officials can buy using their allotted allowances.


Tampons for Christ sakes.......Tampons

Ummmm........Batista had investments from the US Government, Major Corporations , tourism and the Mob and still the average Cuban family made $6 a week while Batista became very wealthy

Castro was boycotted by the US for 50 years...of course his economy struggled

You really need new material or learn how to read a history book. I'm guessing you'll stick with the race card. Please do so. We need more rational, patriotic, working Democrats to be embarrassed by your silly antics and Walk Away.

Yeah, buddy, the only people I see saying Walk Away were the same ones who vote for the Weird Mormon Robot in 2012.

Trump's approval is still underwater for a good reason, and the Dems are leading by 8% in the generic ballot.

Ah the fake former republican praising Castro........I love calling liars like you out.
Cuba was way better off under Batista. Sure he was a dick and a dictator, but so was Castro......We didn't have boatloads of people fleeing Batista, but we did with Castro, because his regime was much worse. Under Batista, we could visit Cuba, they had economic development, under Castro, the same socialist shit hole look as every other socialist country.

Your ignorance amazes me. Why post on issues you know NOTHING about, when you can be so easily exposed?

See some history here:
Fulgencio Batista - Wikipedia

So which point are you disputing? And if it's all of them, pick one.....and tell me how im wrong.

for example on the economy I was right...using your source

Upon his seizure of power, Batista inherited a country that was relatively prosperous for Latin America. Although a third of the population still lived in poverty, Cuba was one of the five most developed countries in the region, according to the figures of the government of Batista.[45] In the 1950s, Cuba's gross domestic product (GDP) per capita was roughly equal to that of Italy at the time, although Cuba's per-capita GDP was still only a sixth of that of the United States.[46] Moreover, although corruption and inequality were rife under Batista, Cuban industrial workers' wages rose significantly.[46] According to the International Labour Organization, the average industrial salary in Cuba was the world's eighth-highest in 1958, and the average agricultural wage was higher than some European nations. However, despite an array of positive indicators, in 1953, the average Cuban family only had an income of $6.00 a week, 15% to 20% of the labor force was chronically unemployed, and only a third of the homes had running water.


the economy was good under Batista....as it was pre Batista...when did it go to shit? yep, CASTRO....that's when. Thank you for proving me correct on this.

Ummmm........Batista had investments from the US Government, Major Corporations , tourism and the Mob and still the average Cuban family made $6 a week while Batista became very wealthy

Castro was boycotted by the US for 50 years...of course his economy struggled

Welcome to socialism and dictators.....you think Castro lived like his people?

Your race card is worn out.

In your fantasy world, if a rational student of history rejects a political ideology that has failed 100% of the time it's been tried--If a rational student of history rejects a political ideology that has caused untold misery and murder of millions, you state that person is a racist. That is nothing less than proof of a scrambled, mentally ill mind.

Okay, buddy... going to explain this to you one more time. What you whine about Socialism could be equally applied to Capitalism. Capitalism has failed most of the times it's been tried, and has caused untold misery and killed millions of people.

Now, personally, I worry a bit that the radicals like Oscio and Bernie are becoming a louder voice in the DNC... We've already got one party dominated by the crazies..

you don't read your own shit, do you?

I did read the link, BTW. For the reader, it does not praise Castro, but gives a description of how authoritarianism usually ends, by revolution.

That is the genius of our Constitution, we have the opportunity to quell the damage being done by Trump in November, by taking back the Congress. And, in 2021 send him away to the trash heap of history, unless he is in jail before the 2020 election.
