@EchoBravo1947@Polymarket Close but you didn't really think about it hard enough. The vast vast majority of taxpayer money comes from NYC anyhow, so they are more or less appropriating the tax dollars equitably. If anything NYC has been subsidizing the rest of NY for far too long.
@Polymarket Most of the hole was filled by someone else’s money. Roughly $8 billion from Albany is load-bearing piece. That’s not structural fix.. and it depends on a state budget that itself has to balance, which means upstate and suburban taxpayers are effectively subsidizing NYC.
@BiatchDulce They are using it for illegal aliens you nitwit and for billing purposes because when they send in a bill and use that Social Security number on an illegal alien, they still get paid Jesus Christ are you that stupid.
MAGA: J.D. Vance has found 196,000 dead people that are still on Medicaid!
Me: Oh my!🙄
Dead people are unable to unenroll from Medicaid, because they are dead.
But since they are dead, they lack the ability to use Medicaid.
Being enrolled in Medicaid and billing
Medicaid is not the same thing you dumb MAGAts!
I’m really getting sick of Republicans telling the entire country how we should be living when the majority of their states are crime riddled, welfare reliant shit holes that are completely reliant on blue states funding them.
@beans120@greendragonhq Seems like you don't understand how welfare reliance works. California is not the top of the reliance list. It's not even that close at #19. Due to reliance being measured by the proportion of the population on welfare, it comes in only at %13. Proportionally they are average.
@BioWonderf76866@greendragonhq I think you are not addressing the original post. The insult was about welfare reliance. They are top of that list. Doesn’t matter if it’s state or federal money, it’s the fact they have so many people on it that is the problem.
@beans120@greendragonhq Per capita spending doesn't matter when they run a federal surplus budget but you will figure that out eventually. Fact of the matter is they print money so republican states can benefit from being impoverished.
@beans120@greendragonhq Bad comparison when you actually use your brain. California spends the most, due to its size, but also pays the most into the fed by far and at a surplus unlike essentially every red state which runs on a federal deficit because they leech money.
@lucas_wolfe30@LawyerDave1@gangbangjohn@grahamformaine Manufacturing boom? Is that going show up in the job numbers anytime soon? All I see are revisions down to negative growth month over month and farms getting decimated. You are delusional and intellectually dishonest at best.
@LawyerDave1@gangbangjohn@BioWonderf76866@grahamformaine The “Great Orange Fool”. It’s not even worth having a discussion with you people.
Venezuela was a huge thorn in America’s side and they got neutralized in a couple hours. China is being pushed out of Latin America. There’s a manufacturing boom in middle America
@lucas_wolfe30@LawyerDave1@grahamformaine Fym trump 2.0 gas goes way down. Brother it's barrelling towards $5 a gallon across the nation directly due to the administrations choices. Use your brain.
@LawyerDave1@grahamformaine Let's think that through Dave.
Trump 1.0 - gas prices go down.
Biden - gas prices go way up.
Trump 2.0 - gas prices go way down again.
I'm sure it had nothing to do with policy.
Moron !
@justthenews907@BillKristol Looks like again you can't read. Those were not included in the TSA funding bill. So why even talk about them? That's a different issue.
@BioWonderf76866@BillKristol I did. You can look up all the riders, everything from masks to bodycams to limiting going into hospitals/ schools. All conditions
Nice to wake up to good news: the democratic opposition wins on no new funding for ICE and
Border Patrol.
All credit to Senate Dems who held firm and prevailed.
All honor to the people of Minneapolis who showed the way in resisting and defeating the forces of authoritarianism.
@justthenews907@BillKristol I am not sure where you see they introduced riders. It seems you are conflating the ICE funding riders with the clean TSA funding bill. I suggest you read up.
@BioWonderf76866@BillKristol Clean bills do not include policy riders. Policy riders are to be negotiated outside of any funding bills. Every time they presented riders. Funding conditions are just hostage negotiations.
@justthenews907@BillKristol It was a clean bill ten times. No stipulations beyond funding TSA and TSA alone. Who gives a shit about ICE, they can figure that out whenever so why hold out on TSA? Do your job.
Dems were trying to add policy riders to current ICE funding. Something they bitch about when Republicans did this in the past. That should be debated separately. They didn’t get any through.
Pelosi when Republicans tried the same thing in the past.
“We should not be attaching extraneous policy riders to appropriations bills.”
@justthenews907@BillKristol If ICE is already funded why do the Republicans keep rejecting clean TSA funding bills instead of helping the American people?
@jared_shult False. Republicans hold majorities in the House and Senate. But, as everyone knows, you need a supermajority of three-fifths (60 out of 100) votes in the Senate to pass bills, like funding bills.
Senate Republicans hold only 53 seats.
Senate Democrats are obstructing all bills.

@autumnskye0069@IWontBeWoke@cturnbull1968 I implore you to understand that taxes are not stealing hard earned money. Sure you can look at it that way in a vacuum but contributing to the strength of America by support our country through taxes is as red blooded American as it gets.
Trump honoring a child with brain cancer tonight and then leading a standing ovation for him while simultaneously eliminating all spending for child cancer research is a perfect encapsulation of MAGA morality.
@Batgurl0909@IWontBeWoke@cturnbull1968 Oh no, a right-winger can't understand they always argue in bad faith and resort to ad-homenims instead of actually being open to having an intellectual discussion!
