Do you think people who make less than 40k are better off?

Only the rich are struggling? If you make under 40k it's a paradise?

Is this your actual thought process?!?

I really don’t care what you are. Just saying the things I’ve pointed out are indeed issues for many successful and hard working Americans with families. We don’t want our hard earned money going to social causes that just continue to promote violence, hate, and higher cost for everything. If these people actually were good people that be a different story. Instead we get gangs fighting downtown, shootings at parties, robberies, theft, abortions, you name it. These people should be in jail.

Are you out here saying that no one making under 40k is hard working?

Seriously what is your logic? You have this vendetta against the poor?

Also - do you think people who get abortions should be in jail?!?

It's because inflation is literally a global problem right now, not the result of any single policy except the smoke in mirrors that lets corporations price gouge to drive it and COL up. I wonder which party is actually trying to do something about this, and which is standing in the way....hmmm.....real thinker, huh?

Democrats solution to this is taxing the hell out of the upper middle class. That’s bullshit.

DoctorSteve OP t1_ivpjzsu wrote

Thanks to Republicans there is no more upper middle class.

Everything you say now has become irrelevant. The republicans want to lower taxes not raise them. Democrats want to raise taxes and steal your wealth. This is the #1 reason why I will never vote democrat. Crazy how you say the complete opposite. You have it all mixed up. More reverse psychology going on with you.

Republicans do not lower taxes. I don't know where you got this idea from. I know they say they will lower your taxes, but all they do is give the rich gigantic tax breaks. This is a historical, proven fact. If you want to show me the large middle class gains during Republican leadership, please do so.

Republicans have only shrunk the middle class.

Inflation is a world issue right now, and the U.S. is handling it better than most of the world. Human rights are way more important to me. Having services for people who are struggling, and need a safety net are wonderful. Everyone should have health care that isn’t tied to their job. Everyone should be able to feel safe from bigotry, misogyny, racism etc.. . That my fellow Pennsylvanian is worth more the price of gas. (Which is controlled by the 1%)

What do you mean human rights? This country has more freedom than any country in the world. What about feeling safe against hate groups? Antifa? The amount of hate crime and violence these groups have started is insane. Destroying and stealing from stores and cities. Blaming the police. The left feeds off this shit

Gymfrog007 t1_ivp9cj0 wrote

Everyone should feel safe. You are absolutely 💯 right.
There is no place for bigotry, racism, and misogyny.

They way that "antifa" handles their movement is wrong, but their belief is correct. They want to stand against fascist, racist, and extreme right wingers who want to take away rights for humans.

Other hate groups that would include "KKK" "proud boys" "neo-nazis" "identity church" should also not be tolerated as well

The far left is essentially communism, antifa is a part of that.

Their view is that fascism, racism, white supremacy is wrong, and oppose those who think it is right. Although I agree with their beliefs, I do not agree with how they express their beliefs.

Do you agree with their beliefs, or do you think that racism, bigotry, fascism etc are things to be supporting?

Racism exists however I don’t think it’s as bad as the media portrays it. It’s always a hard thing to prove. Saying some is racist is just an opinion. Saying some is violent is pretty obvious. I don’t support any of this nonsense. Both parties have bad eggs. Republicans to me are lesser of two evils. The democrats make shit up and want socialism. Obama, aoc, Biden are all horrible people. Trump has a big ego and I don’t like that but deep down I believe he’s a good person. He creates jobs, boosts the economy, wants America to succeed. The media just twists everything because he’s no a politician. Their jobs and careers are at stake with him in office. He’s a threat to them so they will make it their lives mission to destroy him by making shit up and lying to the people.

We can agree on some points. Extremist are not good, they're are bad people on both sides. I would disagree with you that Trump wants people to succeed. I would disagree on claims that Trump created a lot of jobs. When Trump took office, the US was going on 11 years of economic expansion. Under Obama's last 3 years (36 months) job growth averaged 227,000 a month. During Trumps first 36 he was averaging 191,000. So job growth went down (and then covid hit, so we can't really compare numbers after that) Under Obama average household income increased about $5000 in his last 2 years, under Trump average household income only grew about $1500 in his first 2 years.

Racism is worse than you imagine. I have several friends of different backgrounds (Black, middle eastern, hispanic)(most of who I have served in the army with) who tell me that they fear for their Iives of they are ever pulled over for any reason. I have seen racism first hand with vulgarities shouted at them. I have had a privileged upbringing, being a white male in suburban Philadelphia, who has two parents that were teachers. I used to think that racism didn't exist, because for the first 18-20 years of my life, I had never seen it.

Well I think the root cause are stereotypes. When you see a thug looking black guy lots of people think criminal, when you see a Muslim with a beard lots of people think terrorist, when you see a reclusive white kid in school kids think school shooter. It’s a shame these labels have become a reality and the good people of these races and religion become victim. Unfortunately families have lost loved ones to these kind of situations. It’s hard to erase that.
