@electionsjoe I’m an economist, they need to shut the fuck up and accept infinite economic growth for the wealthy so that the wealth can trickle down!!!!

@CaptainLionHart @BullyEsq I know Christians aren't known for having any thought based in reality but you should wear a helmet when you go in public. Your soft skull and liquid brain may cave in and leak

@PTrentacle @issa_png @xxduis @MajorPhilebrity Reagan told you to have unprotected sex, or invented aids? what it with left-wingers and not taking accountability for your own lives
English
@issa_png @xxduis @MajorPhilebrity I mean it did already? It was a national issue, the only reason it took so long for Reagan to say anything is because he thought it didn't affect him, and then his close friend died of AIDS.

Nearly a whole generation of gay people died of AIDS

@Melanieliberal @nickgillespie You spend 12 trillion every year,the us government is the biggest disaster in History
English
@nickgillespie Reagan was a disaster for this country, we’re still dealing with the failures of his administration.
English
A brilliant troll.
Also: We are as far away from Reagan taking office in 1981 as he was from the Berlin Olympics.
Total local, state, and federal spending last year was $12.2 trillion, up from about $1 trillion in 1981. Are we not spending enough yet, or not spending wisely?

Mayor Zohran Mamdani mocks Ronald Reagan’s infamous quote. “I can think of nine words more terrifying than ‘I’m from the government and I’m here to help…’” “I worked all day and can’t feed my family.”

@drake_theguy @atx_mika Imagine crying for 40 years because government can steal.other people money , liberalism really is a mental disorder

@EdTesticles @neoavatara Since there is no hell,burn where

@neoavatara Reagan can absolutely go fuck himself. You can trace most of today’s problems directly to him. May he burn
English
He's an exceptionally stupid man.
I mean, galaxy level brain rot.

BREAKING: NYC Mayor Mamdani just flipped Ronald Reagan's warning upside down: "I disagree." "We are going to use the power of government to lower prices and make it easier for New Yorkers to put food on the table." His answer is government-run grocery stores that will use taxpayer advantages to undercut private competition.

AOC: “It is time for the North to pull up to the South and let them know exactly what they have uncorked with this injustice. They think they can draw us out of power. They do not know the sleeping giant they just awakened. What they thought was the final blow is actually just the opening silo”

@Asa_Scion @Biyombonesaw @SeanMcCarthyCom Modern Americans are not puritans and it was a religious group not a secular government
English
@Biyombonesaw @SeanMcCarthyCom Buddy if you had the individualism in a 16th century Puritan settlement they would have thrown your ass in the sea.
English
Rationing was unpopular in WW1 and WW2 but people grumbled and accepted it. There was a general sense of shared sacrifice and duty then. Now imagine rationing today after Americans have absorbed more than 40 years of Reaganite “you are the only person who matters” propaganda

@RealPhilycheese @Biyombonesaw @SeanMcCarthyCom Sorry to disappoint but american experiment from based on individualism and limited government

@pimthesmilefren @Romy_Holland Don't worry about the survival of capitalism,it will outlast any of your fantasy ideology
English
@Romy_Holland “Free market” capitalism was subsumed into a plutocracy where capital dominates the government. Social reforms under fdr and anti-trust laws stymied it, Reagan set up in the future to destroy them. When capital crushes labor how can capitalism survive?

@SpacecoastPix @Noahpinion The federal government is the biggest oligarchy in history

This is certainly a problem, but the right hasn't been pro-business for a long time.
Richard Hanania@RichardHanania
Why listening to Ezra and Derek reflecting on abundance made me pessimistic. They want a movement that builds things. But in their coalition is a huge faction that hates business, the people who build things! It's a wild contradiction.

@cougedit93 @besttrousers @Noahpinion The wealth of all class has grown since the 80s with the wealth of the rich tech owners growing the fastest,so I am not sure the wealth of tech revolution was "stolen" from anybody

@besttrousers @Noahpinion Worked? Trickle down economics worked in that it shifted wealth to the rich and little trickled down

@Will2Live96 @TheBoyOr8or I find it funny because he will hate Sy the exact same thing about modern woke people

In a similar vein, Goldwater may as well have been talking to the modern democratic party

@jameernels18792 @MomAngtrades Idiot income tax is not wealth tax and study the past tax codes before posting reddit trash
English
@MomAngtrades Lol.. Why don't u agree with this wealth tax
A bunch of middle class bootlicker brainwashed into defending these people fleeing us. Also from the 40s to 79 the top marginal tax rate was 91% to. 79%..no one else allows billionaires to behave this way
English
While I don’t agree with the billionaire tax, I think people like him who donated to democrats and openly supported the influx of visas in our country shouldn’t be allowed to leave California
Fox News@FoxNews
“I fled socialism… I don’t want California to end up in the same place.” Google co-founder Sergey Brin is blasting a proposed billionaire tax as he relocates out of the Golden State, saying the idea echoes the kind of system his family fled decades ago in the Soviet Union. He’s now based on the Nevada side of Lake Tahoe as the measure heads toward voters — a move he warns could have lasting consequences.
English
@Meeenurz @TeedRimmerPhD @AFpost The us golden age where other industrialized countries were bombed to shit?the same golden age that ended due to inflation?
English
@TeedRimmerPhD @AFpost People don’t realize that these billionaires made their fuck you wealth by buying politicians to pass laws to lower their taxes & now can throw $57 million away while Americans struggle to afford basics. The US’ golden era was before Raegan—let’s put those taxes back in effect.
English
Sergey Brin and Governor Gavin Newsom had a tense exchange over California’s proposed billionaire tax.
The tax, which would impose a one-time 5 percent tax on California billionaires, has made Brin more willing to spend some of his estimated $273 billion fortune on elections and, evidently, more receptive to Republican points of view in opposing it.
In the past, Brin consistently embraced leftist positions, donated to a campaign to defend same-sex marriage in California in 2008, and backed President Barack Obama’s reelection bid in 2012. So far, though, Brin has spent $57 million to try to undercut the tax, including $9 million more disclosed on Friday.
Brin’s spending has made him the state’s second-largest individual donor this election cycle, behind only billionaire Tom Steyer, who is running for governor himself.
When asked about the tax, Brin said, “I fled socialism with my family in 1979 and know the devastating, oppressive society it created in the Soviet Union. I don’t want California to end up in the same place.”

@steakmajam @IMAO_ Capital gain tax in 1950 was 25 percent today it is 20 percent,you think any would be billionaire would be dumb to earn in income if marginal tax rate is 90%
English
@IMAO_ This is retarded because America was doing a lot better under Eisenhower and his 90% highest tax bracket than it is now.
English
The whole billionaire thing is exactly the goose that laid the golden eggs fable. Billionaires create wealth — we’re all richer because of their actions. But greedy morons want to cut open the belly of the goose thinking that will get all the gold at once when it just ruins everything.
English
@ResistanceSean Most white people have been moving to red states for decades for affordability,democrat president since 1992 do have better records but it says nothing about housing crises in state levels
English
The denial about why yt people voted for Trump is comical. This idea that Dems didn’t offer them an economic plan is just false. Historically Dems have been better for the economy. Republicans win when they get yt voters to focus on culture wars.
English
@Justin5037 @SMS3504 @SenWarren We should also bring back a lot of things from the 50s like everything else
English
@SMS3504 @SenWarren That 26% should be 91% like it was in the 1950's.
English
Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos shouldn't be paying the same amount in Social Security tax as someone making $175,000 a year.
Billionaires are not paying their fair share.
English
@EkunweL They are dependent because of large black people there
English
Funny enough, red states are the most dependent on federal aid, subsidies, benefits, and support like Medicaid which Republicans hate and always want to vote against. So when you say you align with American red states in terms of policies as a Nigerian, it doesn't surprise me 🤣
English
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Talk is cheap.
While Texas has a larger concentration of Nigerians in any state in the USA, the majority of the total Nigerian population in the USA are in blue states. Aside from Texas that is a red state, you will find most Nigerians in blue states.
Nillionaire.ts 🇳🇬@igboonaija3
I could never live or stay in a blue state in the U.S.....the values and policies just don’t align with mine. Environment matters, and I know where I stand.

@RobNews17 @miles_commodore The tax rates produce the same amount of revenue for federal government that it does now 15-17 percent of GDP, except you want to bring those loopholes back the 50s had lower revenue generation than 1999
English
@miles_commodore The right keeps saying this, but then wants to go back to the 1950s in every other way. Check what the top tax rates back then were.
English
The left has been saying repeatedly that the tariffs will lead to additional costs being passed down to us the consumers.
My question is why don’t they ever apply that same logic when they are screaming about raising corporate taxes on businesses?
