Yes, it is clear you WANT dissension and as much as possible so we can get to civil war 2. You have zero interest in actually bringing sides together in peace to talk about differences. You and your buddy MH THRIVES on chaos.

Huh?
Hey are y’all watching the news, especially Fox. Biden just pretty much depleted our reserve oil, and at the same time OPEC is cutting their production, which means you’re gonna have a lot more cost for your gas. If I were president I would probably not have done what Biden did, did and have everybody hate my guts.
We are back to depending on OPEC which is not our ally… we are praying at the altar of the environment. Oh boy.

But our differences begin with your side wanting to take wealth and property from our side. How can we even get off of first base in a discussion with that going on? If you have ever justified it, I haven’t seen it. May I beg you to justify it for us.

I don't blame your disbelief. Can you imagine? Getting the savings of a successful person and spreading it around, from him to 'them', whoever them are.

I do not condone it, it is leading the American people into sloth.
Secondly I don’t know what you mean when you say the rich steal from the poor. I have never understood statements like that, when the rich give jobs to people, and the funny statements like Susie and who used to say they make money on the backs of others. I know you have some esoteric reason for saying th ...[text shortened]...
Why do you never comment on that phrase, ‘you never ask a poor man for a job’

Comment?.
That 1.9 trillion stimulus was wealth redistribution on a massive scale from the mostly poor to the rich. The rich got 90% of it. Do you dispute that? Yes or no?

I don't get in the weeds 24/7, so I had to look it up. Funny, this says you are wrong, so I guess this can be my answer? Jesus.

The bill would give out $1,400 stimulus checks.

Individuals making under $75,000 and married couples making under $150,000 would receive direct payments of $1,400 per person. The bill would also provide $1,400 per dependent.

The payments would gradually decrease above those income levels and disappear entirely above an income cap: $80,000 for individuals and $160,000 for married couples.

Does this say it DISAPPEARS ENTIRELY ABOVE INCOME CAP.? Jesus. Hey, I didn't get any checks. And relatively speaking, I consider myself poor!!!!

Ask me another question, I'm liking my chances.

Ah, you mean 'poor' compared to Gates or Musk. You will never be rich enough I suspect.

Hey, do you think MB will acknowledge my post above that he is wrong about his ridiculous 90% claim.
You fellers are spiraling. Hey, have you seen the Hunter news?

did he spread the wealth?

How many times must i tell i don't give a fuk he scared you with "marxist rhetoric" that you simpleton stuart littles misunderstand and panic about.

Did he actually do what he promised or is the left disappointed with him because he turned out to be a corporatist democrat (and definitely not a fukin socialist, let alone marxist)?

When the democrats gave all the money, the checks, and created all the other wasteful programs, they were taking from taxpayers and giving it to other people. I guess could phrase this more perfectly, Z, but libs, with the thrust of Obama, spread wealth. There are people on this forum who received free money. I did not. I DID pay taxes, so, my wealth was spread to losers on this Forum.
As For the Marxist comment, Marx wanted to spread the wealth, to each according to his needs. That is what Obama said, so, and I hate it, he is a Marxist. Fits the definition.

As to your not 'give a fuk',, comments like that are meaningless. We don't know each other, so neither cares. Right? We care about issues, though. Why do you prickly sensitive libs get so upset? Easy, man.
I don't like your hairbun. Do you care what I don't like? Yeeaaaahh, you are saying, now I get Joe's point. Geez.

Jesus wanted that as well.

Zhalanzi loses another one. Shouldn't he just start a thread on Jesus the Marxist. We weren't talking about Jesus. MB is a Marxist, avowed indeed. You could mention him and Jesus, but it would have nothing to do with my post. You know, the one that proves Obama a Marxist. You libs are spiraling.

No one has enough Jesus, you are right about that. Certainly there is no need to say that. I have heard, BTW, that Socialism and Catholicism are incompatible. Is that true, and if so, does it restrict religion?
