Mnuchin Says No Bailout for States With Badly Managed Budgets.

[Ken Mac]

There should be no additional aid to those states that already receive more federal aid than they pay in taxes.

They are already freeloaders

So you consider Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid "Free loaders". I thought progressives were all for these types of programs. Wow.

Are social security and medicare really for freeloaders? They are not free to the individual. You do know that you pay for this benefit, yes?

[rightwinger]

How many dogshit candidates got elected for promising people pensions they couldn't afford then stealing the money for other things? Government pensions are obscene and everyone who was ever involved in inflating them is a money launderer. We sure as hell don't want to use this crisis to sneak in state bailouts. You reap what you sow. Pay your own effin bills or lower your benefits. Just leave responsible states out of it.

When I was a kid, every job offered a pension to workers after 25 years service. My mother's biggest argument against my father buying the restaurant was that he was only 5 years away from his pension at the factory where he had worked since the war.

By the time Reagan was done, pensions in the private sector were a thing of the past. Now, the only workers left with pensions are civil servants, and the right wants those to disappear too. Everyone should have a pension with long service. Especially since the workers are now so poorly paid that they need government assistance to keep food on the table. How can you save for retirement when you can't afford to eat today?

Just one of the many, many ways the Republican economy screws the workers in favour of the shareholers.

Government pension was the wisest financial decision I ever made

In the universe in which you pay in before you take out. My universe. You must be from somewhere else.

And it isn't Federal Aid to STATES. It's Federal Aid to PEOPLE. You must be a right winger. Oh yeah - that's your name.

Private Pension was mine. I didn't live off of other peoples money. I feel pretty good about myself for that.

[candycorn]

Gee, the blue states pay in much more than the rather pathetic and incredibly sad red states; the blob is going to run up multiple trillions more in debt if that is the case.

Yo, Corn. Blue states pay more than red states because they make more. I thought that's what you socialists have been screaming about for years. Soak the rich. Make them pay their share. Now you're telling me you want poorer states to support richer states? Hypocrite much?

wrong try again

Welfare and Medicaid are "Federal Aid" because you do not pay into them
SS & Medicare are NOT "Federal Aid" because you pay into them.

I don't know how many times I have to say this.

States don't pay SHIT to the federal government. People and Businesses do through taxes. People receive money from the federal government through federal programs such as SS, Medicare, Medicaid, and the government spends money on Military bases and personel. Stop with the "Blue States pay more" shit! It has NOTHING to do with how a state is politically motivated. It has everything to do with resources and weather and business opportunities.

People move where there is high opportunity (resources) then when you get enough of a population center it turns democrat from republican. Politics follow the money. Not the other way around.

People in blue states send more money to Washington than the pathetic, sad, desolate red states.

And it has nothing to do with being "BLUE". So you might as well strike that and say that some states send more money to Washington.

Red states are populated by obese losers who don’t make much money and don’t pay much in taxes.

pathetic is arbitrary and meaningless

as is sad

Wow - Look at you sitting on high, judging and sending a proclamation with words like "Obese" and "losers". You must be an elitist liberal. Yet, you don't want to help out those that are less fortunate than thou. This is the true liberal. They really don't give a shit about anyone but themselves.

It's not confusing to me. It must be confusing to you because you are going through what is called "cognitive dissonance". It's extremely difficult, confusing and makes one uncomfortable. You want to believe that Blue states are all that, but then you can't fit your head around that it is a good thing that other people in other states that are richer are putting more into the pie than those that are poor and more unfortunate. It kills your argument about Blue states - blah, blah, blah..... because you're supposed to be for the poor and unfortunate.

Maybe, just maybe, you should not side with that Blue state Red state fallacy - ditch it - abhore it- and all will be right.

To conservatives, Blue States are always there as a cash cow.

But when Blue States are the ones needing assistance, they look the other way
