There is ABSOLUTELY no doubt in my mind that Joe Biden and the Democrats are intentionally destroying the United States. Republicans control the purse strings and should have FORCED Biden to close the border, and to keep his BLABBERING mouth zipped over Gun Control, upgrade the military in preparation for any possibility of a war with China, etc. This is as serious as it gets - they should have shut down this Progressive Government until Biden caved.
The problem with Americans like you, is that you're only concerned with issues that have to do with immigration
(I suspect if the immigration was coming from Germany or Norway, you wouldn't give a shit..), guns, and fighting wars
(the military). Really? Sure, we shouldn't have open borders. We should deport most, if not all illegal immigrants. Firearms, including combat rifles, should remain legal for every law-abiding citizen. But bro, is that all we care about? Those darn Mexicans, guns, abortion, pink unicorns, and fruitcakes? Is that all you American conservatives are concerned with? Because it seems that way. There's more to it than that. The situation is a bit more complex.
You ignore practically everything else, especially anything that actually, tangibly helps the working class
(people that have to wake up in the morning and go to work for a wage). You serve the interests of the rich and powerful at the expense of the average Joe American. That's why our manufacturing base was gutted starting in the 1980s with President Ronald Reagan.
Our local economies have been swallowed up by multinational corporations like Walmart. The mom-and-pop stores are mostly gone.
In the golden age of our economy back in the 1950s, until the early 80s, the highest tax rate for the wealthiest elites was between 90% & 70%
(when Reagan entered the Whitehouse in 1981, the highest tax rate was 70%, and when he left office in 1988, it was down to 28%). Until around 1980, 1/3rd of the American workforce was unionized, earning good wages
(you could support a family with one blue-collar wage). Huge, unmanageable Credit Card debts were unheard of for the working class
(the middle-class/working class, didn't start using credit cards until the 1980s. Before then, they purchased most goods and services with cash or check).
My grandfather purchased his house cash in 1965
(without a mortgage loan), after only four years of legally migrating here from Cuba, without a penny in his pocket and working a blue-collar job. The highest-paid CEOs in the 1950s and 60s earned a salary 20 times that of the average worker in their companies. Today Fortune 500 CEOs earn 400 times the amount of an average worker.
We live in a country where the working class has been stripped of its collective bargaining power, through deregulation that undermines labor's ability to unionize and effectively negotiate its terms of employment with wealthy, powerful employers. The employer-owner class has done an incredible job of dividing workers, convincing them that they should negotiate with their employer as an individual rather than as a group of people sharing the same financial interests.
The capitalists want you to believe the myth, that all labor unions are run by the Italian mafia. Capitalists love demonizing labor unions because they're directly working in the interest of workers, and not in the direct and immediate interest of their employers
(happy, healthy workers = A healthier economy and more profits in the long-term for capitalists, but unfortunately they rarely think in such terms, hence they foolishly break-up the labor unions, seeing them as adversaries, rather than a means to stabilize and grow markets and enhance their business output).
The rich and powerful know the benefits of collectivizing
(i.e. consolidating) their resources and efforts, as a group
(as a socioeconomic class), lobbying their cronies in the government to eliminate needed regulations and enact certain legislation that serves their vested interests
(often at the expense of you and your family, if you're a working-class person). The rich are class-conscious
(and that's an understatement), they understand that society consists, not just of individuals, but of social-economic classes and their unique group interests.
They have no problem, unionizing among themselves, through their "Chamber of Commerce", through super-PACs
("citizens united"), industrial guilds, industry associations, an army of lobbyists legally bribing our politicians in the halls of government and of course, we can't forget about the "Think Tanks", that write the legislation. Those capitalist-funded Stink Tanks, hand over their "white papers"
(i.e. studies) and bills
(laws, policies) to the lobbyists that work for them.
What does Adam Smith, the father of capitalism, say about capitalists unionizing to advance their financial interests? In his book "The Wealth Of Nations", Smith writes:
What are the common wages of labour, depends everywhere upon the contract usually made between those two parties, whose interests are by no means the same. The workmen desire to get as much, the masters (the capitalist employers = masters) to give as little as possible. The former are disposed to combine (unionize) in order to raise, the latter in order to lower the wages of labor (capitalist "combine" to lower wages).
It is not, however, difficult to foresee which of the two parties must, upon all ordinary occasions, have the advantage in the dispute, and force the other into a compliance with their terms. The masters, being fewer in number, can combine much more easily; and the law, besides, authorises, or at least does not prohibit their combinations, while it prohibits those of the workmen.
We have no acts of parliament against combining to lower the price of work; but many against combining to raise it. In all such disputes, the masters can hold out much longer. A landlord, a farmer, a master manufacturer, or merchant, though they did not employ a single workman, could generally live a year or two upon the stocks which they have already acquired. Many workmen could not subsist a week, few could subsist a month, and scarce any a year without employment. In the long-run the workman may be as necessary to his master as his master is to him, but the necessity is not so immediate.
Emphasis mine.
Our wealthy masters are smart, they're not dumb. They conquer the working class by dividing it racially, politically, socially..etc. They love to see working-class people at each other's throats. Also, the more they can emasculate working-class males, the better. They want subservient, submissive, effeminate workers, who without question, do what they're told and don't have the balls to ask for a raise or unionize. That's one of the reasons so many workers today are literally cutting their dicks and balls off..
OK that statement was way too vulgar. Sorry about that.
Is this a disparaging word toward our LGBTQ brothers and sisters? No. It's simply the truth. Who's funding all of this gender confusion? Look at the companies and billionaires behind all of this gender chaos.
I have nothing against gays or transsexuals, but the truth is that big-money interests, love crapping on masculinity and "normies". The so-called "ciss" gendered are often disparaged and made to look evil, among our youth by their "woke" teachers and corporate media, Hollywood. etc. Add destructive feminism to that, which hates men and wants to create unnecessary tension and problems between men and women. Feminism today isn't what it used to be in the past.
The big-money, liberal capitalists, love to promote this shit:
All of this lunacy hurts the working class and our country. It makes us look weak to foreign adversaries and renders the working man culturally and psychologically impotent and confused. Not knowing or appreciating what it means to be manly.
Republicans need to stop serving the interests of wealthy capitalists at the expense of the working class. We need to unite and improve our lot together, or else America isn't going to be able to compete with China and Russia. They will kick our ass, if not destroy us. We need to rebuild America and restore its manufacturing base and make it truly independent and GLORIOUS AGAIN.
We can't do that without at least a little bit of socialism. For capitalism to work for everyone, not just the rich and powerful, we need to apply a bit of socialism. We must realize the reality of socioeconomics, or class. Our capitalist masters want to blind us to this reality, in order to dominate us.
If you're selling your labor power or renting your life daily to a capitalist owner for X amount of hours daily for a wage, you are of the working class. It's in your best interest to unite with other workers, like yourself. The employers want to divide us, trying to convince us that class doesn't exist and that we are just isolated individuals within a labor market. No, we're not isolated individuals, living and working in a vacuum, commodified and often exploited, in a "labor market". We are actually a social-economic class of human beings, made in the image of God, who sell their labor power
(rent their lives), to capitalists. Our interests are not the same as those who employ us
(rent our lives for 8 hours daily to people who in general, in most cases, don't care about us).
There's the bad "waking up" where you can't even define what a woman is, and you end up with bright purple hair and cutting your picker and testicles off or breasts if you're a woman. Then there's the good "waking up". I say, wake up, in the sense of the latter. Wake up my brothers and sisters, we are of the working class and we must unite to rebuild our country. To get our country back on track, or we will be eaten alive by China and Russia.
WE DON'T WANT TO EAT THE RICH, WE JUST DON'T WANT THE RICH TO EAT US.
She works 60 hours weekly for a company that makes tens of billions of dollars in profits yearly and she still has to be on food stamps
(public assistance). This shit has to end, and we can do it together.
