That's why I think Trump would love to bring back debtors prisons right out of Dickens. |
This right here ^^ is the MAGA ethos. Billionaires can mooch of the government teat, but definitely not those working PT minimum wage jobs because Walmart underemploys them. Remember it when you next vote. |
Why would anyone want to fund this shit? Once upon a time, the wealthy funded facilities and institutions that actually benefitted society like hospitals, museums, universities, libraries, medical research, etc. THIS is what they choose to fund? |
Oh you sweet naive child. |
People on food stamps largely have jobs (others are retired, or students, or disabled). Remember Wal-mart hands out forms for food stamps to employees because their jobs don’t pay enough to live. |
This! |
LOL, ok Jan. |
They’re no Carnegie. |
Nope. Trump himself said it would be funded “in part” by donors. The rest will be taxpayers, just like the airplane he plans to keep for himself. Trump has also said that he now expects the cost of the ballroom will be about $300 million. The optics are terrible though and Trump may be immune, but the GOP is not. |
No one cares about respect anymore. Just pay the bribes out in the open. |
It will mostly be red states rubes, so the joke’s about on them. |
Most definitely not: https://www.nps.gov/articles/carnegie-libraries-the-future-made-bright-teaching-with-historic-places.htm#:~:text=Many%20Americans%20first%20entered%20the,the%20Carnegie%20Endowment%20for%20Peace. |
| I can’t imagine the fright moms and dads across the country are feeling as their State tells them SNAP benefits may not be issued next month. |
Most red states are federal minimum wage which is 7.25 an hour. A month’s pay comes out to 1,160 dollars before taxes. And that is at 40 hours a week which most jobs won’t give you because they don’t want to give benefits. A loss of SNAP benefits is catastrophic for these people. |
Right? The president and his cabinet and Congress and his main donors mooching off the taxpayers while they blame the working poor. It’s like the cartoon where there is a rich guy, a working class guy, and a poor guy at a table. The rich guy has a giant pile of cookies and tells the working class guy with a single cookie, “watch out, the foreigner/poor guy/dark guy (take your pick) wants to steal your cookie!” Gullible doesn’t begin to describe it. SNAP was $100B last year (1.5% of federal spending) to FEED PEOPLE. Commander Pedo is trying to give Argentina $40B to screw over American farmers and even further screw over the economy. There is no bottom to the punishment that Trump wants to dole out to America. |
