Trump's Supporters In Rural Areas Are In For A Nasty Surprise

To continue with the analogy, tt starts by incentivizing people to fish. If they are hungry and tools are available that will allow them to eat, they will utilize those tools. The culture of not fishing won’t change as long as they are not forced to do so out of necessity.

I disagree that being a hard worker in the US is not rewarding. There are far too many examples of that not being the case.

So provide them with good jobs. Makes sense.

They have the tools. They don’t use them.

Providing them with the end product for “free” results in an endless cycle of dependency.

So what is it you want to take away from them?

There is a long list of things along with requirements that must be met.

Do you think I’m a uniparty dupe like you? Try not to be dumb.

Lol.

/----/ "Do you think I’m a uniparty dupe like you?"
I must be dumb. I have no idea what the hell uniparty means.

So forced employment and such.

A 2-year limit on welfare might help, with only US citizens eligible for welfare.

Give them a job and not a $20 per hour joke wage. Can't survive on that anywhere.

At least you admit it.

 

[BrokeLoser]

Educate yourself. Don’t be dumb your whole life.

hahaha…”Dumb”?
You’re the one telling how bad somethings sucks while admitting you don’t know what something better, viable and sustainable looks like.

Always have been. The treatment of coal miners in the late 19th and early 20th centuries in West Virginia and Kentucky, is a good example of how labor is treated in the US.

Coal mining is a dangerous industry, workers CHOOSE to work those jobs knowing the risks. Do you want to take that CHOICE away from them?

The government and big business colluded to destroy unions in this country. This effort continues today.

Yes California has some ridiculous regulations but in many cases, those regulations effect public workers not private.

Worker unions are just legal mafia…they have no place in a capitalist society.
Do you believe Father Government should socialize labor?

 

[BrokeLoser]

Do you think I’m a uniparty dupe like you? Try not to be dumb.

Lol.

Wages and conditions are determined by supply and demand, they are negotiated between employer and employee…do you statists think Father Government should attend job interviews as well?

Trump's Supporters In Rural Areas Are In For A Nasty Surprise

Buyer’s remorse is rampant since Trump and the GOP barely won the election. Muslim Americans in Michigan who supported Trump are now begging Biden to save Gaza from escalation from Bibi. Wall Street executives are alarmed by Trump’s tariffs. Hispanics in south Florida are freaking out about the mass deportation scheme. Weren’t they paying attention before the election?

Now it’s the farmers who are sounding the alarm about Trump’s plans to carry out his promises to jack up tariffs and deport 10 to 15 million immigrants. Apparently, they thought Trump was bloviating and didn’t really mean to carry out his promises. That’s a common talking point on the right these days. I thought Trump meant what he said.

Rural America has been the foundation of MAGA Republican support. In 2024, Trump won rural voters by an overwhelming margin of 64% to 32% over Harris. Moreover, Trump won over 77% of the popular vote, on average, in the nation’s most farming dependent counties.

Trump’s loyal supporters in the nation’s farm belt are (justifiably) worried that Trump is going to badly damage their $1.5 trillion industry. His extreme deportation plan is causing widespread panic among farmers at risk of losing workers and business. Agricultural output will decline between $30 and $60 billion if Trump’s signature deportation policy is carried out.

The soybean and grain dependent Midwest is especially at risk, since this part of the country needs the federal government’s program that allows certain companies to bring foreign workers into the U.S. to fill temporary agriculture jobs. The forced removal of immigrant farm workers will badly hurt Nebraska.

A study released last month by the National Corn Growers Association found another failed Trump trade war with China could cost U.S. soybean and corn farmers as much as $7.3 billion in annual production value.

These people voted for Trump because they were scared of trans women using girls bathrooms or the 1 or 2 trans girls nationwide that might actually want to play sports. Now look at what they are facing.

Didn’t the Daily Kos claim that Biden was mentally fit and try to lie to the American people about the President’s mental health? Didn’t the Daily Kos tell us that Harris was going to win by a landslide?

I don’t consider them anything but a bunch of haters, liars and closed minded bigots using race, misogyny, lies and fear to divide America. So any opinions coming from such hate sites should be discounted, they are much like far right wing hate sites.

A nation is measured by how the poor are doing. Whether it's inner city or very rural were not doing a great job.

That must mean the United States is kicking ass….our poor people are the most obese faction among us.

How does the culture change begin?

It probably doesn’t, dark people are pretty much the same all around the world…their deficiencies may be in their genetic coding. Scary huh?

Remember being a great worker means little.

That’s what all lazy cruisers say.

 

[BrokeLoser]

So provide them with good jobs. Makes sense.

You and pknopp think that’s a function of government…..”providing” people with jobs?

Not necessarily but perhaps help then in the process. Perhaps many would flourish with a little help.

True but then people are critical of that saying young men need to be out on their own, dating and such. I don't buy into that but oh well.

Facts/truth are never RACIST. Why are you and pknopp afraid of discussing the truth?
