@shizzJackson @Caiden_Legit @DerrickEvans4WV Which is why we should cancel the program. Colleges have massive endowments and should use it to make college affordable

@Caiden_Legit @DerrickEvans4WV Usery and interest loans were illegal for thousands of years. What did our ancestors know about loans that we do not?

She borrowed $49,548.74 in student loans.
120 payments later, she’s paid $25,558 — and now owes $50,121.
She’s paid on it for years and still owes more than what she originally borrowed.
The entire thing is a SCAM to enslave the young people.

An American checks her student loans. She borrowed $49,548.74. 120 payments later, she’s paid $25,558 — and now owes $50,121. After paying for years… she owes MORE than she originally borrowed. This isn’t aid — it’s a SCAM.

@avinson101 @TrashPandaGirll We are a constitutional republic and the majority (by design) does not rule. I would end with calling you a moron but is already implied so I will refrain
English
@TrashPandaGirll The problem is many people dont see your problems as problems. Assume we institute socialism to fix what you see as problems. Now everyone that doesnt agree will say capitalism will fix all of the new problems.
Hence we live in a republic. Majority rules.
English
The vast majority of the problems in the US could be solved with socialism

@xriskology They/them? That is plural so I guess you are counting your crazy as a being?

This is why SpaceX’s mission is utter bullshit. (1) There is no possible way to make Mars habitable for biological beings. Hence, (2) only digital beings can colonize Mars. (3) We have NO IDEA how to create digital consciousness; it might not even be possible. To colonize

@GlynnErnesto On behalf of all Americans, we appreciate your decision to stay home in your crappy country
English
Maybe America should go fuck itself.
The World Cup should never be hosted in a nation where it’s like the 5th most popular sport at best.
It’s in a shitty timezone, had shitty leaders and immigration policies, and doesn’t respect the spirit of the game.
Hard no for me Ian.
Ian Miller@ianmSC
I don’t know, maybe the US should just host every World Cup
English
@thoughtographic Then they should start their own business. They will quickly see that being in control is difficult (read hard work) and profit is not guaranteed regardless of effort
English
Have communists considered that it’s also selfish to profit off your own labor.
Please think of the billionaires and trillionaire who would surely starve if they couldn’t profit off your labor.
English
@McClellandShane Why only Americans? I think every person on earth has the same legal claim on his assets.
English
@IntheBenzzo @dietrich_eiden Elon only suggested as he has no power to cut a program. The programs he suggested were based on waste, fraud and senseless spending. Perhaps you would be better off focusing on Canada as you seem to have more than enough problems to occupy your attention
English
@dietrich_eiden It’s not inherently only the 1% but who has the most power, wealth and subsequently influence. Elon was literally the head of DOGE who cut programs helping citizens to prioritize his own wealth. Funny how he climbed from a billionaire to a trillionaire since then
English
People get mad at others stealing from stores while billionaires steal from your pay-check and your taxes all while doing all they can to avoid paying taxes on their end.
Billionaire defenders are hypocrites
Roku@RokuHouse
Those damm billionaires
English
@bapacarl @BladeoftheS The person is in the UK so they are likely not the sharpest knife in the drawer
English
Oh trust us. There is plenty of ignorance to go around.
Most of Elon‘s wealth is jobs. Giga factory here, boring project there rockets, satellites. His wealth is somebody else’s jobs. Do you somehow think he has $1 trillion stuffed in his pillow?
There’s plenty of ignorance to go around.
English
The problem is no one even needs $100m.
But you have vegetables defending people with $200bn or even $1.3tn.
Because they are too ignorant to realize that money is being stolen from THEM.
English
Nope, just a failure of capitalism.
mitra@mitrajoy_
having our first trillionaire before everyone has access to clean water is a failure of the human species

@BenjaminPDixon The lowest form of life is a preacher with TDS who lets his political beliefs Trump the words in the Bible

The most valuable asset to billionaires and trillionaire
are people who have a KragerU level understanding of economics
Random HVAC Guy 🇺🇸@RandomHvacGuy
Well, the trillionaire uses his own money while the snap recipient uses mine.
English
@KPASKSWHY That’s not a rate
You’re either being intentionally dishonest or
Or
You’re just ignorant
English
People love to talk about Elon paying $11 billion in taxes.
Sounds like a lot of money.
It is 1.1 percent.
How do I get a 1.1% tax rate?

@BStampo @realNickWake @AaronRegunberg Gov has no say in how much wealth a citizen accumulates. A failure of government is taking in $5T+ per year and wasting or losing half of it. Stop worrying how much wealth have and focus on using wisely the money available which is more than enough
English
@realNickWake @AaronRegunberg A trillionaire existing, or even billionaires is a direct failure of government. Not surprising since its their influence over policy that causes the failure.
Noone is envious, people just want to have a home and be paid fairly for their work, have clean water to drink, etc.
English
It's just bonkers that there are still grown-ass adults arguing that our economic/political system is good, knowing there's now a literal trillionaire existing while most people are barely scraping by. You just have to have such a baby-soft brain to maintain that insane belief.
English
@Rws7591 @EstelCooper Say you don’t understand social security without saying it.
English
@EstelCooper So damn stupid. Billionaires also receive the same as someone making $160000. If they received an amount proportional to their income, you would have a point. Otherwise you make no damn sense
English
@RepPettersen If simply giving people taxpayer money made them rich every welfare recipient would be a billionaire.
Elon builds things people are willing to pay for. You build nothing. All you do is take our money, give it to fraudsters, then cry when we demand accountability. Fuck you.
English
Elon Musk became the world's first trillionaire — built on government subsidies and taxpayer dollars. He used DOGE to gut federal programs Coloradans depend on, and now we are watching our communities get hollowed out while the world's first trillionaire adds another zero to his net worth.

@Jrwebster79 @WaltzingMtilda How are you comparing degeneracy with building a valuable company? Live your life how you want (wdc) but don’t expect us to participate.
English
@WaltzingMtilda Maybe have a lesson for your fellow Maga members regarding this exact topic but with pride month.
English
I would like someone to explain to me how Elon Musk's wealth has a direct negative impact on their life because as far as I can tell it doesn't have one on mine
English
@0xDavecryps Where in Africa is rent $1750? Is that a double wide hut?
English
@CaliforniaLabor God forbid Elon follow the tax code and avoided taxes not required under the law. Wondering how many of you labor morons pay more taxes than required? My guess is zero as even you are not that stupid.
English
While we paid our taxes, Musk avoided paying his and used our tax dollars to create his personal wealth.
Having even one trillionaire in this world is a policy failure.
English
@trentmoe @QuincyAvery If not worth it, stop playing and go get a job
English
@QuincyAvery Unless I am misinformed, practice squad players are payed per week they are actually participating in practice. If I am right that means they have to budget or get a second job in offseason. Most people don’t understand the toll this takes on the body, is the money worth it?
English
I'm so confused why people are mad at what he said. He said he isn't rich or practice squad players aren't rich. Which they aren't.

Dolphins CB Darrell Baker Jr. reveals he would make only $5,500 per week on an NFL practice squad: 'Everybody thinks we're rich...' 💰🏈
