Sometimes the choir needs to be preached to if it has lost its way

Not in this case. Or can you show me how we can put together a 50% constituency that will consistently support ending welfare systems? You can’t. No one can.

End the welfare system and subsidize and propagandize this instead

Breesus, You are preaching to the choir. But politics is the art of the possible, and ending welfare is not even remotely possible under our democracy. If we turn to authoritarianism then maybe so.

Anyone who frequently uses the term PANICAN or TDS is a low IQ individual that is unable to discuss any policy

I disagree on “TDS”. It is a very real thing. I was talking to my TDS afflicted neighbor, and she went off on Trump destroying the White House. It is one of those things that would not even be an issue if Obama had done it. It would hardly have been newsworthy. Ten years from now it will just be part of the landscape, and it will be one of the most popular features of the White House. But Trump did it, so AAAaaarggghh! That is TDS.

What does that spell ? PANICAN

You could have trusted us to make this last step on our own.

President Trump was right about ...........everything. They're all crooks.

True. But this includes the Trump family. We will always be ruled by crooks. That is why government should be limited to what only government can do. And it is also why every government function should be done by the most local branch of government possible.

The problem is that the “solutions” being bandied about here would involve mass expulsions of people due to their background.

Virtually no one is advocating expelling citizens. And there is nothing wrong with advocating the expulsion of non-citizens, especially illegals.

The problem with this is that if those in charge keep shoving it down our throats the possible remedies become more and more extreme.

You need to accept the fact that we aren't going back to that

Of course we aren’t, but must we continue to make it worse?

You have to have some level of immigration. Denying this is stupid.

But do they all have to be from India?

94% are NOT from India

Hinduism is superior to Christianity in every way. I used to consider myself Christian too. But eventually I got tired of being categorized with assholes like the OP and the mindless cheerleaders to this bigoted thread.

Are you suggesting that the practitioners of Hinduism don’t include bigots? That is a very naive - more likely. tendentious - point of view.

With populists, expect poulism

Are you saying that populists will eat more chicken?

Late stage capitalism will be the fall of America

If you mean that people became so affluent that they didn’t want to work anymore, so they embraced socialism, then you could be right.

We don’t want Muslims, Hindus, pagans, and hordes of foreigners

The 11 H1Bs that replaced me would tend to make this false.

I’ve read enough about individual examples to realize that some industries are abusing H1Bs, and that needs reform. However, we do NOT have enough engineers, coders and many other STEM workers. And I probably have twice the experience with this than anyone else on this board having hired thousands of engineers.

China or Russia started blowing up boats off the coast of another continent, our State Dept would probably cry about the human rights abuses.

They already do it. Hell, the Uyghurs don’t run drugs and they still put them in concentration camps and made them work as slave laborers.

He might. The 30A A/C breakers are generally sized FLA x 1.5 to account for motor inrush current. Those units are unlikely to be drawing over 20A each. He could get a picture of the nameplates to verify. I don't know what's going on with the heater. That could be as high as 16A, or it could be a gas heater that needs less than 1A for controls/pilot light/etc. The receptacles/lighting loads are chickenshit aside from his pressure washer.

The problem is that if you run a toaster and a hair dryer at the same time… :lol:
