don’t mind my tax dollars being used RESPONSIBLY (keyword) to be a safety net for the vast majority of the populace.
Can you check your wording here? Sounds like you want most of the country on the dole.
I don’t think that’s what you meant.

To me, responsibility looks like not having all this money going missing randomly at the Pentagon for example. Or not just throwing more money at problems instead of being creative and coming up with more effective ways. I mentioned Gov. Reynolds of Iowa a few days ago. She reshaped her government into smaller and more efficient but didn’t even fire anyone (quote from her testimony, don’t know how true but she swore to truth lol). That’s what I feel is responsible. Minnesota is another great overall example of responsible growth. Regardless of views on the Floyd situation, Minnesota is number 2 in best states for economic opportunity, 4 in infrastructure and 5 in best overall states. Different political leanings but great results and fulcrums of responsible decision making. Spending wisely, becoming creative and putting people first (not politics and nonsense).
As for a safety net, it definitely varies. But I don’t believe that any American should go bankrupt if they get cancer or should be homeless if they are disabled/can’t work. I don’t believe that veterans should EVER be down and out how our vet pop is. We are all putting money into this system and these programs (and paying for other countries in some cases to have better benefits than we do). If anyone needs a boost here and there, they should be able to receive it. This is not a support of abuse either

That’s not my understanding of a safety net. To me, it’s inline with the definition or like when someone is falling, it catches them before they die. Being on something 24/7 isn’t a safety net. You’re trapped in the net lol

Trans people have only become an issue because the right needed a new culture war to drive their base after Roe was overturned
Wrong. Trans people became an issue when they starting demanding to use the bathroom of their choice, competing in sports, demanding that people wax their ballsacks, putting tampons in men's room, using the locker room of their choice, he/she/them, etc, etc, etc. There's literally hundreds if not thousands of examples. The right only made it an issue when it was crammed down our throats.

Democrats/marxists are emotional thinkers. They consider how it makes them feel above all else. That's why it's mostly women. Women will surrender their liberties for security everytime.
Conservatives are pragmatic and are interested in results. We live on an unforgiving planet with scarce resources. Freedom is more important than "safety." That's why they are mostly men.
Marxism is fools gold because it sounds good in theory, but delivers neither safety or liberty. Our founding fathers knew this. That's why they were adamant that women not vote.

First term Trump increased our debt and spending more than Biden. His Non-Covid related debt/spending alone was more than the entirety of Biden. President Trump also decreased the deficit less. Just the numbers, don’t care who wins this fight
That link you posted is extremely misleading. Prior to covid Trumps annual deficit averaged $809,371. This is the average budget deficit for years 2017, 2018 and 2019. Post Covid Biden averaged more than twice that at $1,634,885. This is the average of years 2022, 2023 and 2024. You got to throw out the Covid years 2020 and 2021.
National Deficit
This is the reality of our budget deficits. Not the bullshite you stated. Typical lies from the left.

putting tampons in men's room
personally never had an issue with this one. lots of tranny women dressed like men still get periods. it's better than having someone that appears like a man at a glance heads into the ladies room. no outrage from me on this one.
i'm 100% opposed to trans dudes acting like women playing women's sports though. that penn state swimmer that went from something like #300 nationally in mens skyrocketed to #1 womens. that's some bs
if you want to dress like a woman that's ok, but you're still swimming with the guys

Why do red states on average have lower income, quality of education, life expectancy, and a higher % of people relying on government subsidies?

How is it misleading when it in fact adding way context down to the different acts and policies passed by each? Lol you are already in the mindset that this is a difference in ideology versus numbers. It’s generally accepted that he spent more by economists to the point that Nobel economists came out and said his would be worse than even Harris much less Biden. Agree to disagree (even with the facts in our face lol)

not the same thing imho
men dressed as women can take a piss in the relative privacy of a stall. and in the end they're still dudes - if it's awkward, go piss outside. if one has actually gone so far as chopping their dick off, sure, piss in the ladies room.
i feel like some women in the bathroom would notice if a man/former man was taking a wicked dump. i've never heard/smelled a woman come anywhere near the destruction i can bestow on a toilet after beers and tacos
Posted on 2/10/25 at 8:04 pm to BlueTiger23
I just showed you the facts. Biden's deficits were twice what Trunp's were when you exclude Covid years 2020 and 2021. It's obvious and indisputable.

Hell, we've already had dudes sentenced to women's prison, getting several pregnant AND some tranny in a VA high school has sexually assualted girls in the bathroom AND THE frickING ADMINISTRATION TRIED THEIR BEST TO COVER IT UP!

I don't know why you are against natural law, but a dude in a dress is not a woman.

Trickle down economics was a lie.
You left out uneducated retard. You see you being a self-proclaimed lower-middle class guy have supported the import of 30 million people to do your menial tasks for pay. And you do know that the highest earning people pay the lion share of the taxes in this country right? You ever wonder why your leaders still bitch about the same issues and you are still in the same place? It pays them to keep you there. And they're getting paid twink..
