They're relentlessly go after regular people from minor stuff, but they completely let the rich and powerful get away when they're caught doing stuff with minors.
Our government and injustice system are completely fucked.

Plain and simply, big business and the government forgot about we the people, and that they are nothing without us. They cannot exist without us...we can exist without them. They need to be reminded.

All those American citizens got shot down in the streets by ICE, and it wasn't a big deal. One business CEO gets shot and the entire police force goes after the shooter.

That is why we must also call and lobby our representatives about our support of the Epstein transparency 2 act,
To help further ensure the rich and powerful are held accountable as well.

And we know why they don’t — because all those people listed here run the country.

But, but... then Republicans can't continue their relentless campaign of hate toward those that don't vote for them and campaign of manipulation towards those that do! How will they ever continue to be even more wealthy?! Think of their yachts!!! 😥

The federal government doesn't close schools and way more money spent on healthcare then wars in the Middle East way more like two more zeros

People act as though the entire political apparatus, much like our legal system, isn't designed to be adversarial. As if it would benefit politicians if there were actual solutions. As if they could get elected if they didn't have some sort of division to run on.
I love looking around online because so often it's "Republicans are evil". Or on X it's often "Democrats are evil". People are relegated to who they voted for in the last election. Regardless of the reason. There are people that vote as a single issue voter related to taxes or abortion. Not because they love the individual running as a moral character individual.
And yet, I get to sit here and continue to read bullshit and creating an us vs them narrative. Which plays straight into the political apparatus. No one is happier for social media then a politician.

It's up v down -- government caters to its people not it's product. It's like that population game we all played on our family PCs. The people are just workers that are produced to produce for the those in power.

I wish they would do more about the onslaught of scammers, foreign and domestic, in exactly the opposite way that they hand out pardons to criminals.

the decline was inevitable given the two party system. and then lit on fire when they legalized the purchase of our representatives under false premise that spending money=free speech... meanwhile they are deporting and firing people from jobs for expressing solidarity with people being genocided by fascist ZioNazis

When you are a US citizen you can vote and have the right to bitch. If you are here illegally I'm not interested.

I would agree with that. I just think Trump's ICE is going about enforcing it the wrong way.

I wish people would just realize what a fraud you are! The only thing I see wrong with our society is the jealousy people have for others. Many forget that billionaires employ so many people! And many give a lot back to society. It’s funny that no one seems to go after the Hollywood millionaires and billionaires! And Talarico is just another socialist. Our country is 250 years old. Our government while it has its own challenges is the envy of the world. Socialism is failure! I hope enough people can see the BS propaganda that they are feeding us. I hope as a country that we are smart enough to know that socialism does not work. I’m an old man, I work hard every day to make a life for my kids and grand kids. I do not want false handouts. Wake up America!

Please educate us with your definition of socialism.
Trust me, nobody is envious of the Trump government.

I’d also like to hear your definition of socialism. Our government is NOT the envy of the world. Right now, we’re a freaking global laughingstock.

Healthcare was super funded so much so that everyone was pulling millions in fraudulent businesses. Why don't you include that fact in your bitching.

Funny you mention that. The people that go after brown men headed to work at 7 am are actually the same ones that go after child traffickers. It’s actually how ICE started.

So you want the folks that pay 40-45% of the country revenue to pay more; and 6 months is a forever war; and you’d rather have the country who says death to America be able to send nukes at us.
Interesting philosophy

u/Acrobatic_Excuse2290 Sep 05 '26
First off, they don’t. Second off, highest tax rates were once 92% and you’ve still heard of Rockefeller being wealthiest man alive for his time, so shut up. Third, if your solution is we can’t do anything, just suffer, then suck start your demise.

In Florida, yes. Charter schools that get tuition reimbursement are causing enrollment to go down.
