[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s “scary” because he’s been brainwashed into thinking that taxes and government what’s hurting him. The LACK of government programs FOR HIM is what’s hurting him. The people who avoid taxes, such as industrial farm conglomerates aided and abetted by bought and paid for congressmen are what’s hurting him.

And the welfare dig sounds like a dog whistle to me. [/quote]

You are part of the problem, frankly.  He doesn't need nor does he want government programs.  He wants to be left alone by the government.  As do many of us.  
He is complaining about the WAY our tax dollars are being spent.  No accountability for welfare.  Our youth are dying from fentanyl and little to no effort to stop the drugs from coming to our country.  [b]Our hard earned money going to foreign countries in the BILLIONS, if not TRILLIONS, and we have people here who have no homes and no food.  [/b]

He's not been "brainwashed" at all.  He has lived it.  He has seen the waste of tax money.  He speaks for millions. [/quote]

Less than 1% of the federal budget goes to foreign aid, and he is literally complaining about people who use SNAP to buy food.[/quote]

Yeah.  Those highly  nutritious foods like fudge rounds and chips and soda.

"A 2016 report from the USDA found that sweetened beverages, like soda, are the most commonly purchased items by SNAP recipients across the U.S."[/quote]
soda is cheaper than milk.  It didn't use to be that way, but it is today.[/quote]

And, water is cheaper than soda.  So, the taxpayers foot the bill for these very unhealthy food choices, then they foot the bill for the medical help they need to deal with the results of poor nutrition.  Yay![/quote]
not disputing that, but let's be honest... a lot of people, both rich and poor, don't want to just survive on water.  You really think poor people shouldn't be able to drink soda if they wanted to?

And I'm not so sure water is cheaper than water. You can get a 99cent  2 liter soda bottle.  [b]A gallon of water can be like $2.  And that really depends on the store and where you live.[/b]

You don't need to go to a store for water.   It comes right out of your kitchen faucet.   [/quote]

other faucets too.  and heck, the government even cleans it fer ya![/quote]

Not very well!  Just ask Flint.[/quote]
