Are Republicans hyopcritical for being "pro-life" while at the same time protesting to stop the lockdown?

Imagine Trump claiming he is pro-life... that guy is basically relying on abortion when he is raw dogging porn stars after paying them with some fed money

Only 2 things will stop me from making political threads: God and eheath. God isn't real and eheath is my dad so full steam ahead.
 
If you elevate the church above the government the two ideas can be held at the same time without conflict.
 
This is a more accurate phrase:

Isnt it ironic the party of slavery wants to keep people locked in a cage with no way of sustaining themselves other than handouts from their masters?

Thats the thing about the Democratic party. They put on a big front like they give a shit about you but in reality they create messes that make people desperate then swoop in and act like they are going to save the day using your own tax dollars then push their own agenda. Here is a good example, we locked people down so they cant pay their bills. So then we come up with a stimulus check so people dont rob liquor stores. Then Nancy Peloci comes waltzing in trying to shove her Woke as Fuck bullshit agenda down everyone's throats.

Here is another one. We come up with a nonsense program that "Everyone deserves a University education!". Which sounds good until we find out its all based on government back loans which screwed up the market price for higher education and drowned a whole generation in debt. So who comes around then and says, 'Hey, vote for me Ill magic wand your debt away!"

The Democrats thrive on this. They probably love the fact that small businesses are getting shut down for good. Why? Because then the only jobs are crappy minimum wage cashier jobs at Walmart. Then the Democrats can say,"Hey, now that you are desperate and we ruined the true market price for labor... vote for me and I will increase min wage marginally so your life will suck slightly less!"

The virus is here, its a new shitty reality that we cant escape. If we lock people down for a week longer or 5 months longer its still going to resurface as soon as we do. The problem is if we wait 5 months we are going to see a huge increase in robbing, looting, home invasions etc when people get desperate. That or we print 10 Trillion more dollars then screw over the next generation when the USA suddenly loses its AAA credit rating.

The grocery stores and Lowes are packed right now anyway so its not like people are not interacting while it is anyway. Keep up social distancing, limit how many people are in stores and keep masks on and sanitize everything but open up small business so the whole community is not funneled into Lowes and Alberstons every Saturday.

I only get my news from the radio on gta

Legit used to just sit in a car and listen to Lazlow on GTA radio Vice City. All the commercials were so jokes.

All the radio stations must have been a ton of work for the game developers. Way ahead of its time.

This thread is garbage.

You're making a lot of assumptions here, but hey, the username checks out. The only one that you might have a point on the the college finance one. Look at the cost of college before and after the student loan program was put in place. It skyrockets. But to say that they are actively trying to make everyone a minimum wage worker just to win some more elections is a jump. I would hope even the scuzziest politicians would do better.

Low taxes, fuck poor people, get the non-whites out of here, no abortions.

What have they ever done to try and lower the suicide rate? Provide easier access to healthcare, have social assistance programs, go to fewer wars (veterans have a high suicide rate)? Thx

lmao party of slavery thats a good one I remember when we learned about party switches in highschool us history and were amused for a week or so.

Big money has bought out the bottom 50% of this country ever since the civil war and blinded them to the insane inequality by using cultural cues, xenophobia, and plain lies. CEO's are getting million dollar bailouts during this shit. does anyone realize how f-ing ridiculous that is?

Us poor white folk vote blindly for "tax cut" politicians that end up cutting taxes... for the rich without realizing that we're starving our aid programs and increasing our own taxes.

Also while we are in quarantine the virus is spreading, at a hopefully treatable level, thats the point of fucking quarantine. people get sick now, slowly, we can handle it, therefore fewer people get sick when we re-open

Rather than open the economy and kill 3 million instantly, lets just kill the 3 richest people in this country and use their money to keep us all alive, it'd be a much bigger boost to the economy and fewer people would die.

Looks like the VA is getting a 13% bump this year. VA does a lot for the mental health of veterans.

https://www.stripes.com/news/veterans/trump-s-budget-plan-calls-for-another-increase-in-va-spending-1.618249

Also the whole argument for re-opening is about allowing people to go an earn their own living instead of waiting on another government bailout. If this not caring about these people then I don't know what is. But I think we all know that no minds on this forum are changing on that topic.

Ah yes nothing screams caring about people like opening up the country to soon against the advice of science. Don't kid yourself thinking the US government cares about your health. They bailed out massive corporations for hundreds of billions of dollars, the Fed is buying junk bonds and lending trillions of dollars away to corporations. They just want you to go back to work to help their portfolios, they don't care about the health of the people.

You are literally talking to wall with these people dude. Democrats, nowadays, don’t practice democracy they practice bigotry. The vast majority don’t understand that people that live in metropolitan areas have very little relation compared to the cost of life and overall government dependency every where else in the country.

Really came here for the downvotes and a chance to stir the pot. g2g count my millions and beat some colored people.

When things open up just stay inside if you're worried. You have the liberty to make that choice. Also, you seem to not trust the gov with your health but want them run healthcare?

Sure, the US is getting screwed over by corporate interests but do you really think Biden and Company gives a shit about that? They will give plenty of lip service during campaign time then sell out as soon as they get in office. The problem is the Federal Reserve system and the fact the US Dollar has lost 96% of its value since 1913 when the Fed was created. This means wages will never increase with inflation and corporations that can outsource labor to 3rd world counties survive while mom and pop shops drown.

Personally, I could care less if we tax the rich or not as long as the Middle Class gets a tax break and the US actually controls its deficits for once. This would mean cutting back significantly on military etc though which has far too much vested interest to really change.

Yeah, 3 million people are not going to suddenly die if we get people back to work. We still need to implement social distancing and precautions. You know, the same one that hardware and grocery stores are already using. We did the quarantine so we could let the hospitals resupply and get their facilities set up. Its not a 6 month long suspended animation for the US. There are thousands of people right now that literally are facing being homeless. Sure your bank or landlord might let you float a month but the reality is these families can foreclose if we keep people from working. Not to mention all the small businesses and restaurants that may never open again. This isnt about some kind of "Fuck the government and their rules", its more "Im going to have to tell my kids we are losing the house and end up in a shitty motel or on the streets if I cant work in the next month."

Profit would be an incentive to provide good care, you are correct. Probably would not stay in business long while providing shitty care.

Hello then haha
 
I’m a moderate independent. I vote based on the person and ideas rather then vote party lines.

Republicans are hypocritical for being pro life and then at the same time voting against access to contraceptives, sex education, condoms, etc.

If I wanted to limit abortions, I would go about it by reducing births.
