haha that's the maga line now! didn't you get the memo? it's good for prices to go up because it means you will consume less and something something success. |
Remember when Biden said his hands were tied and there was nothing he could do about the southern border ??? 137,000 - march 2024 7,000 - march 2025 95% decrease in apprehensions at the southern border https://x.com/piersmorgan/status/1912159030358798546?s=46 How many other issues were the same ? With Biden ignoring them unable to figure out what to do???? |
LOL....I always wonder if it's same dp all over the political pages spewing their ignorance. |
There would have to be a cultural change as well as an economic one. Of course money is a factor, but plenty of people just don’t want to, and now that we don’t all live on farms where you need children, on an individual scale nobody “needs” to have a child. having a family is a want. |
I’m actually very surprised that republicans are not campaigning more on the homeownership topic. They should emphasize that democrats want to destroy your neighborhood and community. They want to eliminate single family neighborhoods and force high density development in your community . They want to force everyone to live in tiny apartments and take the metro to work. |
This only works in places that are already super high density anyway. Also we are one of the few countries in the world where everyone just expects to live in big houses on their own massive patch of land. |
This is the weirdest idea coming from the party that accuses people on Medicaid of having more babies just for the money and wishing they could be sterilized.
And it’s creepy and weird for every other reason too. Having kids is a luxury. Make life affordable and people will have kids. |
So taking metro is bad but moving people miles and hours away from work and then requiring them to commons good? No mention of the health or family impacts nor environmental impacts. Also do Democrats want everyone to live in tiny apartments or are they recognizing that not everyone wants to live in a McMansion nor can everyone afford to? |
PP and I was agreeing with this concept. It’s becoming unrealistic for everyone to get a big house and a lot of land. Middle class in Asia and Europe get along just fine raising families in apartments. The average person is simply getting priced out of single family living near urban areas. |
Not unrealistic at all. The US has a lot of undeveloped land and reducing minimum lot sizes but maintaining single family song could make a big difference. The fertility rates in Asia and Europe are even worse. The TFR for South Korea is .75. In China it is around 1.0 and in Japan it is 1.16. Spain and Italy are around 1.2. The total TFR for the EU as a whole is only 1.38. High density housing destroys the fertility rate and apartments are inherently unfriendly to having children. Policies that promote high density apartment development will make humans go extinct. https://x.com/morebirths/status/1875755100817268895?s=46 |
Their YIMBY Democrat policies effectively force most people to live in apartments by reducing the supply of single family homes and making them unaffordable. They also promote absurd anti-family policies like road diets, eliminating parking minimums, prioritizing bike lanes over cars, single stair reform without requiring elevators in buildings. All of these things don’t work for someone who wants kids especially if you want multiple kids. It’s completely impractical and unrealistic for someone to pick up their 4 kids from school on a bike and then pick up a week worth groceries from Costco for their family of 6. Then struggle to find parking for their minivan before walking up 3 flights of stairs in their single stair apartment building that doesn’t have an elevator. |
As it anyone didn't know, this proves that the whole immigrant thing is just racism. More babies mess more people taking your jobs and lowering wages for fruit picking and landscaping and meatpacking and cleaning. |
We could just use that money to feed, clothe, and provide medical care for existing children. It would certainly motivate people to have children if we didn’t live in such a far right $hithole of a country. |
Are you closer to Dulles, Reagan or BWI? |
Yes, The disdain for Trump and Biden caused voter turnout to surge to record numbers. People are more motivated to vote by hate and dislike than anything else. Is this what we want in American politics? Is this good for the country? No and No. |
