Look, what I learned from Spunky is that Trump is actually a genius playing 3524th dimensional chess and you're just jealous and petty because you didn't inherit billions of dollars, connections and a team of people to do everything for you, you just hate success.

Democrats are to blame for letting this all become reality with hardly a finger raised in meaningful opposition. The Senate confirmation voting records tell you all you need to know about the effectiveness of the two party system. In other old news, Bernie would have won!

Spunky Psycho Ho posted:Maybe if Americans had to actually face the consequences of our rampant and wasteful consumerism, we might be inclined to tone it down Americans invented consumerism! High natural resources, low priority for where those products ended up. And stop hating on consumerism! Consumerism is good! In this transition to a post-labour economy, it is necessary to saturate the market with consumer goods and the people to sell them. Think about it, really: we are absolutely overloaded with labour potential. Whoever keeps the price of unskilled labour at its current price is a genious. Because it's not worth a drat anymore. Regular people need jobs to earn money, and you can't just give people money, you have to give them a reason to get up in the morning. The point is, we need to move capital from the big CEO bosses to the regular person. Which we did, with superannuation funds. So we're on track, financially. The only issue, as you said, it the wastefulness of it. As a chemical engineer, I can personally guarantee that you can make any chemical you want: petrol, ibuprofen, aspirin, Prozac...you can make it all from base liquids easily obtainable from nature. A little bit of processing, and you have the equivalent of crude-oil derivative. The issue is energy. And, in terms of arable land for resource crops, or solar panels, the USA is in a prime position, and yet is well overpopulated and has far more demand than its own lands are able to satisfy.

Instead he’s one of those swing voters we keep hearing about. In 2008 he endorsed Obama, but feels like the president didn’t deliver on all his promises. In 2012, he was an avid Romney supporter. The Republican National Convention took place in his hometown of Tampa, and he was riled up by all the buzz.

You're really just illustrating the fundamental difference between right wing and left wing imo; the right wing seem to literally not care about anyone beyond their immediate circle of people and gently caress everyone else as long as their circle is being taken care of and provided for. Everything else is just "lol you don't even know those people stop handwringing!" Idk if it is a lack of empathy or something else but it's amazing how common that thread is in all political arguments. It's the direct root of like 95% of GOP positions. "gently caress you, got mine." Moridin920 fucked around with this message at 20:33 on Mar 9, 2017 |
