Classic Republicans

[Campeador]

Agreed. I pay so much fucking money in taxes every paycheck. The taxes I pay alone are more than most people on this website make in a year im sure. Its fucking embarrassing to see some of the arguments on this website and the excuses people have for being lazy..blaming it on bad education, poor upbrining, etc. EVERYONE can make their lives better and achieve success. Guess what...I didn't have an easy childhood. Grew up to a single mom who lived paycheck to paycheck her whole life. Worked, bought my clothes, cars,etc.

And guess what...because we were so poor...I had good grades and got so much scholarships/financial aid that even at private school...I paid 40k for 4 YEARS. Graduated debt free and made over 140k my first year out of college.

The vast majority of people will never be well off because their lazy, uneducated morons. Look at pro athletes...60 something % of them go broke after a few years. Same with average people. Spending beyond their means, buying the latest and greatest phones, etc just to look cool always worried about everyone else. Mind your own fucking business and live within your means youll be fine. Until then, I will NEVER vote democrat because the party epitomizes the "Average American" aka Joe Schmoe who makes 50k a year and lives on social security.

Working in what might I ask? Not many jobs out there that pay that out of college, even in Silicon Valley and New York. And how exactly do you make 50k and live on Social Security? I'm pretty sure you pay into it at that point.

Your "reputable source" on information considering the fate of earth has this as a quote on his website. "His work incorporates Ancient Mythology, Astronomy, Earth Science, Paleontology, Symbolism, Sacred Geometry and Architecture, Geomancy, and other arcane and scientific traditions."

Sorry but that is ridiculous

Well, you're wrong. The man has been doing research longer than you or I have been alive. What part of using "Earth Science" or "Paleontology" sounds "ridiculous"? Did you even listen to any of what I recommended?

Actually curious: Are you implying that our democratic government, elected by the people for the people, shouldn't represent the average American, but instead people like you?

Denier logic-

I think he's just expressing his frustration at the lazy people who make excuses for not being successful in life when he was able to work hrs and get somewhere

Uh, I don't think you understand that america runs completely on people being in debt. If people lived within their means, nothing would sell enough under our current economic structure to make any company any real profit. Meaning no jobs, no toys, circular logic etc.

Case in point.

The only problem is that congressional democrats are all out of bubblegum, but have either A: forgotten their boomstick, or B: forgotten the line "kick some ass" all-together.

If only Bernie Sanders wasn't like yoda-old and resembling Doc Brown from back to the future. He would be a far more attractive candidate to those who are sick of the same-old status quo bullshit. Can I get a Howard Dean PYAAAHHHHHHH?

Debt is a great thing. Your right...if used correctly. Lots of form of debt you can buy from a bank loan to unsubordinated loans to all sorts of bonds to bond derivatives, etc.

Your response is a classic uniformed generalized moronic statement. America doesn't run on people being completely in debt. Americans have just created a culture that revolves around them wanting to have the latest and greatest of whatever that might be and doing whatever it takes to get it. All about perception...the classic credit card millionare who actually spends all of their money to keep an appearance.

There are just some companies out there who can take advantage of these people and make a lot of money off of them...and they should be able to. Its a free market. If someone is stupid enough to get a payday loan or willingly put a retarded amount on a credit card knowing its 15+ percent interest than thats their own problem...no one elses.

And for those who asked...I work in banking.

It's not uninformed or moronic, nor is it generalized... I'm speaking directly ABOUT the culture. You said it yourself, plenty of companies are out there to take advantage of people who are lead to believe they're not going to end up on foodstamps in a few months trying to pay off shit. Payday loans are a gross example of this. Yeah, it's stupid to go ahead with a payday loan, but isn't it also ridiculous that we allow our citizens to get into so much debt because "omg free market is the best" that we then have to resort to putting them on welfare - which we then try to take away because "omg get a real job, druggie".

Either way, the amount of people who work for credit and finance companies would shrink vastly if everyone was financially educated enough, or even in a financial position so as to not fall for credit traps. Where would they all work instead?

That's what I'm saying when I say "america runs on debt". You need credit companies to be able to afford goods when you make just 26 grand a year - which is the median income for Americans - and that's not exactly a lot of cashflow. That's like what, 13$ an hour? . Retail and service industries need credit companies to give people enough credit so they can pay for their goods and services... otherwise people can't pay for even the basic stuff, and the retail, shipping, service, tourism, entertainment, and any other industry out there where people have to swipe a card all falls down, people can't get jobs, and our economy goes to shit under our current economic establishment. Just look at what happened during the credit crunch late last decade... when people couldn't get credit anymore, or felt they would get absolutely horsefucked if they put anything down on credit, jobs everywhere were lost, in every industry, simply because people couldn't, or didn't pay for things.

Additionally, America itself is in how much financial debt? it LITERALLY by NATURE runs while being in insurmountable debt.

Go and tell me that wikipedia is biased. The United States is the only major country in the world where this debate even exists.

I just saw this and I am not sure how you're misinterpreting what I am saying. When did I ever deny climate change? Discussing how the climate has always been changing does not mean I deny climate change...
