Dispute over payment causes chaos during family’s cab ride from @FLLFlyer. They say they wound up “held hostage,” before Davie PD and FHP became involved, driver suspended. @wsvn #Exclusive story:

@Bratt_world @anders_aslund Crazy to chain this to NATO - the US contributes more than the rest of NATO combined to fund the treaty. So Europe can thank us for effectively subsidizing their universal healthcare.

USA is the only NATO ally without universal health care

State Sec. Rubio: “Imagine if instead of spending billions on weapons, Iran spent that money on its people. They’d have a much different country.” Follow: @AFpost

@drunkenlaios You don’t seem to understand anything I’m saying. Americans can make and buy whatever they want with their own money. Just not with MY money.
English

@dnky2th To a rugged American guy like you, we only need the most bare essentials, right?
English

@drunkenlaios What the fuck are you talking about? Soda manufacturers pay for municipal water. The water in soda is the same as the water in a glass of water - it is used by your body for the same things. People who can afford soda should be free to buy it.
You are becoming incoherent.
English

@dnky2th Water is a resource needed for much more important things. So much waste, I mean the drain on our electrical grid alone by massive corporations could be cut down and we'd be the better for it! We'd have to give up a lot of snacks and treats like that but in sure thats no problem
English

@drunkenlaios What? How is soda a waste of taxpayer money? Do you mean soda provided by SNAP? Yeah we should eliminate that.
English

@dnky2th Sure soda is a waste of taxpayer money but do you know much water is wasted in the PRODUCTION of soda?
English

@drunkenlaios Because I work hard and outcompete others. That is literally how our entire economic system is setup.
English

@dnky2th I mean, why do you deserve luxury food items? Why is the food production of this country not entirely focused on rationing out only the most bare essentials ? If you care so much about waste, why does your concern seem to be honed in in those with the least resources?
English

@drunkenlaios If they can afford to buy luxury between the combination of their incomes and SNAP benefits then they should simply receive less SNAP benefits. SNAP literally means “supplemental nutrition”, not “luxury treats”
English

@dnky2th Being spent on, not lobster but its the same voice, just trying to stretch its point to the point kf incredulity (poor people are not wasting stamps on lobster en masse to the point it needs to be decided upon)
English

@drunkenlaios You have been completely unable to articulate why you think children deserve luxury foods. Food stamps *by definition* make peoples’ lives less miserable. It is literally free food that productive people pay for. Do you not see why those people don’t want to pay for luxuries?
English

@dnky2th Yeah, I just think kids deserve whatever. Who fucking cares! You, and Jake et al are the ones who want to restrict! I defend my position that, food stamps should be used for whatever makes poor people's lives a little less miserable. Usually people complain about candy or soda
English

@drunkenlaios The question was - “do the children deserve lobster and steak” to which you replied “you think they don’t?”
Just admit your position is indefensible and move on.
English

@dnky2th Oh yeah it was Jake. So neither of us really brought lobster into it. Great point!
English

@dnky2th Well tbh, youre the one who brought lobster into this, im just using it on your account, for me im thinking about candy, soda, treats like that.
English

@drunkenlaios How is chicken breast or PBJ “worse” than lobster? Again - what added benefit does lobster provide? We aren’t talking about what their parents can provide, we are talking about SNAP.
I gotta say, this is the type of glaring jealousy that makes no one take leftists seriously.
English

@dnky2th They are reliant on food! They dont deserve worse food than what your kids get just because theyre poor! Do they deserve worse or not! I think they deserve to have a happy life, and if their parents give em candy, soda, and a lobster for dinner, why not.
English

@drunkenlaios Why are kids “reliant” on luxury foods? What added benefit does lobster give to a child? How is that different than a Bentley?
English

@dnky2th I mean how reliant on cars for transportation is a different matter, but every kid has to eat and I dont know why one of the richest countries in the world is twisting itself into knots over feeding its children
English

@drunkenlaios Should everyone drive Bentleys for their first car too?
You sound like a dumb, jealous child.
English

@dnky2th I think that's fine, I don't know that their diet should be restricted to that because of their class
English

@drunkenlaios @IAmJakeHuffaker What a stupid fucking thing to say. Are children today only able to eat the finest luxury foods? Or can they eat oatmeal and PBJ like everyone else did?
English

@dnky2th @IAmJakeHuffaker We gotta do child labor so they can earn the right to eat
English

@drunkenlaios @IAmJakeHuffaker Correct - nobody deserves lobster and steak. People EARN that.
English

@dinosaur_store @MRIRISH1287 @ZeBolshevikman Another one bites the dust. Thanks for playing. You lose.

English

@dinosaur_store @MRIRISH1287 @ZeBolshevikman 1) oh is that why its done in secret government prisons hidden from the world?
2) I searched and found that you’re full of shit
3) see attached
4) you STILL can’t answer

English

@NathanielTheBal @dinosaur_store @MRIRISH1287 @ZeBolshevikman What a little fağğôt.
Thanks for waving the white flag. You lose.

English

@NathanielTheBal @dinosaur_store @MRIRISH1287 @ZeBolshevikman But it’s not like 10% of Uyghurs stabbed anyone, so it is exactly equivalent.
English

@NathanielTheBal @dinosaur_store @MRIRISH1287 @ZeBolshevikman So if Trump decided today that all 10% of US leftists should be imprisoned and reeducated you’d be okay with that?
English

@dnky2th @dinosaur_store @MRIRISH1287 @ZeBolshevikman And over eleven million Uyghurs in Xinjiang, so my statement is accurate
