If we can go back to America First, $2 gas, low inflation and low interest rates I will certainly be happy. Establishment or not.

That's not what Trump gave us.

Gas prices were about the same on his last day in office as they were on his first, and Trump's loony spending got the inflation/interest rate spikes rolling. He left office with an unemployment rate higher than it stood when he started his term.

Trump handled the economy pretty well his first 3 years, but presidents serve for 4 years and 2020 happened.

I was alluding to your position on SS with the establishment thing.

Interesting, I remember paying $1.49 for unleaded in Lubbock Texas over Thanksgiving 2020.

---

Good for you. Timing was perfect to take advantage of the lack of demand due to Trump's Covid shitshow, but the fact remains that by the time he left office, gas prices had rebounded to about $2.25, about a dime lower than when he took office.

Covid had nothing to do with that, right?

Who said Covid response had nothing to do with this?

quote:

It is dishonestly like this that makes us hate people like you so much.

---

And when the person that hates me so much is so retarded they can't read/comprehend, their hatred is inconsequential.

quote:

---

Again, covid had nothing to do with that, right.

---

Who the frick said this? In fact, the way I wrote the post makes clear that I'm including 2020 as part of Trump's term. Because it was.

quote:

---

With you desanctimonious soy boi's everything has to be ALL or NOTHING. Bring on cuts to spending. I just believe that the LAST progam that should be cut is SS.

---

Which is an establishment position, because it means the only possible change is further expansion of programs/spending.

Did you know that when the SS program was started, the age when benefits were to begin being paid was higher than life expectancy? And since then, the establishment/permanent Washington has successfully expanded SS's remit to clownish dimensions and fooled so-called conservatives like you into believing support of this is just "getting my money back."

Cut all you want AFTER you cut all the benefits to the freeloaders. You want to keep paying the freeloaders, but cut those that have worked and produced in this country. It's called ENVY.

You a Z'er, when is your transition occurring?

quote:

Typical boomer response.

Typical Z'er, responding when they don't know what they are talking about. If you are going to attack someone, at least know what you are talking about.

Baby Boomers 1946-1964
Generation X 1965-1980
Millenials 1981-1996
Generation Z (transitioners) 1997-2012

Isn't that what YOU are saying? You want to frick all of those that came before you so you get/keep yours? There is a HUGE difference between those that worked their entire lives and those that won't work. Once you mentally mature (if you do) you will understand.

---

I was called a groomer for wanting my money back in any shape, form or fashion.

I have to admit, they sound a lot like I did 45 years ago.

They'll bend over and take it, like the generation after them will. And, they'll be called be names while they smile all the way to the bank.

quote:

---

You did when you blamed Trump without the context of covid. You were not being intellectually honest and we both know it.

---

No. The mistake I made was assuming I was responding to a non-retard that didn't need to be reminded that Covid happened in 2020.

Do you seriously need to be reminded that Covid started in 2020?

quote:

---

It is amazing how smart you pompuss (yes I intentionally spelled it that way because you are a puss) pretentious libtards think you are. If it acts like a libtard and it quacks like a libtard, it's a libtard. Regardless of what it says.

---

There's a 90% chance I'm more conservative than you. The single non-conservative position I have ever held is I'm against capital punishment - because I believe the gov't can't do anything right/accurately, and don't want the state killing innocent people.

It's funny - you're the guy espousing weak/soft AF policies and beliefs, but you fantasize others are the soft ones.

quote:

---

EXACTLY, you were placing the blame on Trump without adding the context of covid. You were being dishonest

---

Again. Do you really need to be reminded that Covid started in 2020? Your whining here is bizarre.

quote:

---

Cut all you want AFTER you cut all the benefits to the freeloaders

---

Cut it all. Period.

quote:

---

You want to keep paying the freeloaders

---

And you can't pose an argument without making up the counterargument first. Like I said, soft AF.

quote:

---

but cut those that have worked and produced in this country. It's called ENVY.

---

Cut it all. And here's what you're not understanding -

An actual producer that's also conservative knows that SS, like every other gov't program, is a loser for him. The sooner it is eliminated or at least shrunk, the better it will be for me and my kids. That you don't agree tells me you're either too stupid to know what you're actually advocating for, or you're on the receiving end of the SS gravy train.

I've stated that SS needs to end. That means I'll never ever see any of the money that I've been paying into the the system since I was 16. It also means I'll never see anything when I hit 65. I don't want the government to steal money from me to pay your lazy arse and I don't want them stealing from my kids to pay my old arse when that time comes. Theft is wrong, no matter how you try and dress it up.

If you were such a hotshot and really helped build a great nation, you wouldn't be reliant on the government stealing from your kids' and grandkids' generations to give you an allowance in your later years.
