    Can we at least all agree that Rand Paul is a piece of shit?
    GOP Sen. Rand Paul says that Biden's push for a $15 minimum wage reflects a 'hate' for Black teenagers.

    Chuck Schumer is a piece of shit.

    Rand Paul enjoys his status as a wildcard a bit too much.

    A Libertarian Joe Manchin, if you will.

    Can't think of one that I like, currently.


    Think about it this way, Gents:

    America is an idea - an aspiration - based on a concept of individualism that fosters a community friendly to that individualism.

    There will always be problems related to human selfishness (entitlement and greed on both ends of the spectrum), but the idea that we can manufacture or legislate equality of situation or result is absurd.

    The waters of society will seek their own level, no matter the predominant ideology.

    I've often said Communism is the most brilliant construct the human mind has ever ideated - it works great until you take it off the whiteboard and put it into practice.

    Humans can fuck anything up; it just happens, strangely enough, that Capitalism is the most 'human-resistant'.

    You read it here first.

    $15 minimum wage will create/aggravate unemployment and cause inflation.

    There is never an excuse for doing that.

    It's a stupid idea created by and entertained by stupid people.

    We already have enough stupidity, and stupidity is far more contagious than Covid.

    Would that logic were catchy, eh?

    Ending slavery also caused trouble yet somehow America still found the will and muddled through. As for increasing unemployment, there is an argument made by some smart economists that the increased purchasing power would offset that. Poor people spend , rich people save. True, is it not? Also wage increases haven't historically added much to inflation. Maybe then increase wages less than to $15/hr and then make any further increases tied to inflation. Then it can't be the cause of inflation, merely the response.
    You can argue that what amounts to for some workers a hundred percent wage increase is too much too fast for employers but it's hard to make a case for how paying a salary that at $7 and something an hour which is about $10k under the poverty line, that is good for the economy either. Anyay, if you're running a business that can't afford to pay your employees a livable wage, I think the problem might lie not with the employees.

    So who gets paid $7 an hour??

    And on a personal experience note.. How many small business pay under the table,cash to employees ?? The same how many of those employees are not legal in the country they are in?? Or collecting unemployment and working for cash, because they can??

    Look at the free money the government is giving out!!! Do you think that motivates people to get back to work??!! Do you think that is smart!!!!

    And we can go on that how many bills were sitting on Mitch McConnell's desk from the house Left Wing Shitbags!!!, I keep telling you they think money grows on trees and don't care what happens to there National Debt or the rating/status of the US!!!

    They are failed or never took Economics in school!!!!

    Tell me Idol you used to hear Trudeau on tv/media say ya lets let in everyone into our country and give them free shit, forget the Wuhan China virus!!!, it was only a short time you heard that in the media, then that stopped and so did letting them all in period!!!..

    And the truth is we and the US give tons and tons of money and Military to all of these fucking countries to fix there problems at there home/source, yet they all seem to be coming by the thousands at both our borders !!!

    Why is nobody asking the question fucking why???!!! Well Trump fucking did and the other countries didn't fucking like it did they!!!!!!And also got others to pay there fucking share!!!!!

    Yes you want friends/allies but not if don't really want change, all they want is free money to dictate what they want!!!! The same most of those countries leaders really don't give 2 shits about there people!!!! Trump brought that out in the open!!!

    Again if Canada is such a rich country, our social/government run services should be a hell of lot better, and even forget we are taxed up the fucking ass for everything!!!, hens yes Canada first then whatever is left for others!!!

    Well, if you don't agree with that then i don't know what to tell you buddy...

    OK.....

    So we talk about people with 2 or 3 jobs right!!, so you got a guy and they are getting paid $20perhr and the next 2 jobs minimum wage??

    Do they really need to work the 3 jobs or they are working them to fucking make more money to live a better fucking life??!!, and maybe save a few bucks in the future or same to start a small business of there own??

    Interesting thoughts maybe??

    How about other geniuses that work one job and they are in a certain tax bracket and if they increase there income and end up in a different tax bracket they end up making less per hour of work!!!!

    Yes they put more fucking money in there pocket but may have to work harder to do that!!!!

    Think about that, because Idol you were asked the question have you ever been the hardest worker in a job?? That question makes sense now doesn't it??

    You know you are in a union, does that motivate you to work harder, as apposed to having your own business?? Or having a government job vs being in the private sector??

    Interesting questions are they not??

    Here is something interesting....

    Key in Google something that is recently happening in the news.....

    Now i don't know why this happens but at least the first five that come up are always the Left Wing Shitbag viewpoints!!!! and or none of the conservative views websites are given as an option to read!!!

    Why is that happening?? Can someone explain that??

    The majority of the time you have to key in the specific source place for it to pop up?? Why??

    Who sets those parameters on the search engine??

    Interesting or Offensive
