The democrats are eating their own. Nice. Lots of love, tolerance, and diversity there.
WTF are those old white farts Biden, Bloomberg, and Bernie still doing there?
this is what happens when you quit trying to appease a crowd and ignore them. they take their bullshit to people who will respond and pretend their whining matters and needs to be dealt with.
I think that's called "pandering" to the various democrat constituencies. The democrats do know how to "rabble rouse"
1. Reparations to the blacks to stay loyal in their urban plantations
2. Free education to the college age kids, and keeping colleges liberal bastions
3. Free healthcare for the old or those with "pre-existing conditions"
4. High taxes on the wealthy to make the working class feel better
5. More power to the unions, lawyers, and teachers
6. Continued support for the MSM shills
it's called being a dumbass as far as i'm concerned.
it's fine to have an opinion on all these matters. it's NOT fine to go whole hog apeshit on those who disagree with you and make it a huge issue when in reality, it's simply not.
1. reparations - for what? these are *usually* done to people/countries/entities impacted by your actions. i am NOT excusing slavery as it WAS a dark time in our own history. but we're far from the only nation that used it, blacks are far from the only people enslaved. however, simply saying "no" to the idea will get me branded as a white supremacist racist. ergo - the people who do this can't talk over issues, they are seeking emotional validation.
not my job.
2. colleges have usually been "liberal" per se. the cost itself these days is morphing people to get educated in other fashions. mike rowe leading the way in a very productive manner. a plummer or electrician is likely to make more than a college graduate anymore. making it "free" simply means the cost is placed elsewhere and does nothing to address the skyrocketing costs of education. so the left again is inventing issues vs. solutions. people can't afford it, make it free.
not my job.
3. free healthcare for the old, et al. again, we can't afford it so make it free. under what bubble of common sense does this fall under? to compare us to a country who does this is ludicrous and avoids the issues we'd have in the cost of doctors education then salaries, cost of our heavily we regulate drugs and hospitals, and then insurance who is out to profit off of selling it. while i agree how we do things needs to be heavily looked into and changed put in place with a long term strategy of resolving these issues while also providing coverage to people, it can't and won't be done overnight. as for making it "free"?
not my job.
and i could keep doing but we continue to tax the rich vs. find other ways to move income around to the people themselves the gov SAYS they are taking rich peoples money to give to them in these programs, but i can't think of too many successful gov programs that would make me want to continue putting money into their systems regardless of who's side it is. both sides suck as taking a lot and returning little value.
our educational system needs an enema as well. but it needs to be built by ideas around people educating our youth. what is working today, what isn't? we need to rethink how we do it and how we "reward" people for their success and achievements.
there's a lot of things we can do if done differently. however, the extreme left driving these days is hellbent on writing checks their platform can't cash and the people who want FREE STUFF are too stupid to look around and see it's not opportunity but handcuffs they're being handed.
