Trump isn't going to help you out. He's going to murder healthcare, tax imports, destroy the environment, lower taxes(all the things the government does, no matter how shitty they were to begin with will be even shittier), lower regulations on big business(you might get paid less, fewer if any vacation days, longer work days, etc), and waste a whole lot of money on a useless vertical slab of concrete along the border.

Other countries millions of times stricter regulations, yet the prices of drugs in those countries are millions of times cheaper.

And big companies brainwash trailer trash to yell "nanny state" when we try to impose one.

It's like economic liberals believe that that world begins uncorrupted with a perfectly functioning natural order but for the fact of government intervention, which necessarily makes us worse off.

Taxing imports would be immensely beneficial. Sure it is one item, but turning back decades of free trade and replacing it with protectionism would stop deindustrialization and raise wages.

Also the wall is good, I like it. And it shouldn't cost that much. There are already appropriated funds from other times the government failed to build a wall or fence as promised. Plus we can bully Mexico by slashing foreign aid and taxing the fuck out of remittances. Plus there will be huge savings from the federal government on down to the local level when all the illegals are kicked out.

The wall to me is like a big public infrastructure bill. It's like the Hoover damn except it holds back a flood of brown people and heroin.

You seriously want the government to protect you from yourself? If you do that's fine, I'm sure there's plenty of great countries like North Korea who better align with your political beliefs.

Prices were rising *before* ACA, which was part of the impetus for its passage.

The Republicans are getting rid of the individual mandate (i.e. you have to buy health insurance or you have to pay a fine) and the restrictions on companies to sell plans across state lines. They're keeping being able to stay on your parents plan until 26 and companies having to take you on regardless of your preexisting conditions.

Basically, good parts of ACA staying and stupid parts are going. Dismantling, my ass. Fuck off.

So do you want cheap drugs or do you want the exact same drug except you have to drive to the store and wait for it? You have the choice. You act like I'm making it out to be too easy but it really is as simple as saying what I want. Half the time they don't even ask for a prescription because who the fucks going to take Telmisartan to get high? I order 6 months at a time and it comes in the mail. I hate driving, waiting, and spending extra so this works for me.

I might have a solution for you. You could have it delivered, then drive to Walgreens, go inside, wait 30 minutes, then go home. Same experience but still cheaper.

You can't keep the pre existing conditions part without the mandate or all insurance companies are going to go bankrupt. The reason why they can take in pre existing conditions is because the mandate brings in payments from healthy people. That offsets the cost of insuring people with pre existing conditions

cont, Honestly I would just be happy if they would institute single payer. I am on the right, but single payer makes sense to me. What we had before Obamacare is awful, and what we have under Obamacare is awful, in fact worse for many people. It just shifts the burden onto young people by forcing them to buy shit they don't need and can't afford. Spreading things out and just having single payer through tax would be better.

Are you stupid? The basic principle of insurance is getting money from people who don't use it. That's how they pay for the people who do use it. you're pretty much saying get rid of insurance.

The great thing about Trump is that he's probably going to break things in a way that no one takes seriously these ideas for a very long time. Hopefully dems will start fielding real progressives and we can start patching up this shit show of a country in a decade or so.

And they will like they did before. Health care will be for people who 1) aren't sick 2) aren't poor. So why even call it healthcare?

Health insurance shouldn't be a business, health care should be administered by the government.

I have a feeling you don't live on solar power, but solar panels cannot power a town, and even if we had 100% efficiency out of our solar panels they'd still have a problem of not working if not in direct contact with sunlight.

Really the only way you could power a town of say, 5,000 with renewables is if that town happens to be by a river, receives a nice amount of sun and wind and can also have a place to build sterling engines.

NRC also plays a role in how long they take to develop even though they can be made in factories and shipped in trucks.

Why should I care about the less fortunate? I worked my ass off to get where I am. Even those more fortunate than I can go fuck themselves. I remember rolling pennies and nickels to buy bread and collecting cans as a kid. Now as an adult I own a car, have no debt, and even have a portfolio with investments and shit. I may be lucky as far as genetics go with work ethic, intelligence, race, or whatever other 'privileges' you call it, but I don't care. If a man does the right thing he won't have many issues. I did great because America is a wonderful country.

I have no sympathy for fat people. The majority of people using the medical system are overweight or obese. Hell, over half the population is overweight or obese. They can't talk to me about hardship when they have enough food to support themselves and 3 others.

>>
>>34102553
Nothing.

The non-poor and non-sick will have great healthcare. When someone well off actually gets sick for real they'll hit their life time cap, never be able to get insurance again because pre existing condition and will probably die.

But it will disproportionately affect people who aren't white so this is in fact a good thing, all the "leaches" will die off.
>>
>>34102628
it's not, >>34102667 doesn't know what he's talking about.
>>
>>34102616

This.

There is no replacement. It'll just be a repeal with some gloss about "more consumer choice" and "efficiency" which actually means fucking nothing and is all about getting a big corporate dick further up your ass than before.

Carry on, faggot. Remember, if you go broke, you can still go to the hospital and just never pay back your debt; your credit will be ruined, but if you're younger enough to post on this board, you're young enough to be in the generation that will never own homes, have decent jobs, a real retirement plan, afford to have kids, or anything else boomers thought were normal aspects of American life.

It lasts longer than that, retard. It's not like it is the only option either. It's fucking epinephrine, you can buy an ampoule or vial of the stuff for like $10 and draw it yourself into a syringe for less than $0.50. Hell, let's be fancy and add an extra $0.10 so you draw with an 18ga 1.5" and inject with a 23ga 1".

Don't be such a brand whore and you won't be as poor. There is no difference between trade and generic other than name and price.

You could link maternal obesity or overweight to certain cancers in children, so it's there. If you had cancer you could die under Obama too though. Presidents are presidents, not drugs that cure terminal illnesses. Even if I took a shit in the popes mouth and that shit got elected president, people would still die. What is even your point?
>>
>>34102814
is insurance that expensive in the US?
i mean im aware that im essentially paying a part of my income every month for "free" insurance and thats okay to me
is nt the US system the same just without being forced to have one and without state offering an essentially free version?

because to me it sounds a bit like people in the US are essenttially complaining about expensive med stuff becase they dont want to get insurance but isnt it your own fault if you arent insured that you have to pay more eventually?

Treatable cancers are only treatable if you can afford them. Under Trump care health insurance will be destroyed so people will die that would otherwise be alive.

Hold on little guy I, I know you are dying right now just chill out I have to fill this vial find a vain and get this into you while you are freaking the fuck out.

Actually they voted down both of those conditions in that 1am vote-a-thon yesterday. They're going Scorched Earth Motherfucker on the ACA and have absolutely no idea how they're going to replace it because, somewhere in the past six years and 60+ attempts at a repeal, they forgot that the ACA actually started based off of Romneycare and the Heritage Foundation.

A federally-enforced individual mandate is a private insurer's fucking wet dream and the GOP wants to throw that away for cheap political points and spite.

Trump doesn't give a fuck about policy or his voter base. Trump never even wanted to be president. He just wanted to be CALLED president. He's so pathetically desperate for validation that he'd be perfectly content to hand the reins over to Pence and just spend the next four years traveling the country on a never-ending Thank You victory tour.

I mean if you look at his cabinet nominations it's pretty obvious he's leaving all the gritty details to Pence. You think Trump had ever heard of Betsy fucking DeVos before November? No, but Pence sure as hell did. That's why the cabinet is getting stuffed with old white pro-privatization billionaires. Giuliani didn't get a nom because he and Pence have bad blood, even though he and Trump are ridiculously close. Make no mistake about it, Pence is the one building the cabinet and setting the First 100 Days course. He's PLANNING on Trump not making it through his first term. Just let Trump go wave at some rallies and make a big blustery scene while Pence and his Friedmanite cronies completely dismantle every part of the federal government for personal financial gain.

Trump will have no control over the GOP congress. They're going to fall in line with Pence and his wingnut fundie religious bullshit because nobody honestly thinks Trump is still going to be president by 2020 and they want to make sure they're on the ball when Trump gets impeached and Pence walks into the Oval Office.

I hate it but it's for the greater good. Little anon has to die when her drug dealing boyfriend beats him to death too. Fortunately child negligence and abuse is illegal. Let's make it illegal to abuse drugs or be obese when pregnant and maybe we'll get somewhere. Don't just ignore the core issue. I want to solve the problem, not perpetuate it. Childhood obesity is child abuse in every sense, but we aren't taking legal action against parents of overweight children. For some reason starving children are removed from the abusive parents. Either both should be allowed or neither.

Part of how healthcare """worked""" before the ACA. It's the max amount of coverage an insurance company will pay out in benefits. So then you find yourself without insurance JUST FOR USING IT. And then no one wants to insure you because you have a prexisting condition.

There are several people ITT arguing that this is just fine.
>>
>>34103502
Before the ACA, insurance companies had a maximum dollar amount that they would spend on you in one lifetime. Once you reached that limit, you basically had no insurance for the rest of your life.

Get in touch with your representatives and ask about their positions on policies you care about. They can also usually provide good information if you want to help their causes, directing you to party-friendly PACs and charities and stuff.

I've been using callyourrep.co to call my senators and congressmen lately, it works really well. I've had some good one-on-one time with their staffers.

The one thing senators and congressmen take more seriously than anything but campaign contributions is engagement from their citizenry. One of your senators votes in a way you disagree with on a specific bill or amendment? Call their office and leave a message with their staffers. They add up and it really does make a difference.

The GOP are anti-gay and anti-abortion, so who knows what they will do.
Trump and GOP want to get rid of the ACA entirely. That will remove insurance for tens of millions right there.

Because they literally don't understand what health care is, or the ACA, or single payer, or anything about economics and will defend whatever makes sense to them. Also because they don't want to pay for the health care of black people, it's really that simple.

Meanwhile middle class and rural whites will be completely raped when health care engulfs in flames.

His education guy is someone I actually like. I'm more of a deist and think young earth is bullshit, but I love the idea of gutting public education. Research shows more money leads to no improvements. We have the Internet new. Keep kid off the streets but they can teach themselves. I was homeschooled and consistently performed at the top 10% of standardized tests. The GED is a fucking joke. I was top 1%. I read the GED is harder than just getting a high school diploma, but I could have passed that shit at 12 years old. Public education is obviously a waste. Student loans are cool but they should be merit based instead of available to anyone. Nothing restrictive, like top 50% on whatever entrance exam the Institute uses, act, sat, gre, etc.

Why are we paying these clowns to teach though. I spent part of 5th grade in public school. It was a fucking day care and placeholder to keep them until they can legally put them in prison.

>Meanwhile in the US trump is about to fuck the US in the ass for personal profit and profit of his billionaire peers
>He'll defund public schooling and increase taxes for the middle class while cutting healthcare
His entire idea was stupid, everyone and their mom knew the production sector is going to take a huge cut and companies will move back to industrial nations because of automisation so making the US into essentially a 2nd world country with a huge workforce is the most stupid thing ever.

The right choice would've been make the US into a rich nation that has a lot of buying power on individuals so that companies have the incentive to move to the US produce there and at least get taxes on the products getting built because the jobs are gone. You do that by investing into the social sector to improve the living conditions of citizens.

Why would a company base itself in the US if the people are too poor to buy and they need to pay big tariffs to export because trump literally wants a trade war with every other country and their mom? Right now the most important thing for companies that can basically produce without any extra pay for wages and social security is a rich community they can sell to and they will move towards those communities because cheap production labour is not necessary anymore with automisation and they will not have to pay any tariffs.

Going into full protectionism right now means you will have more costs on exports so less incentive to produce there.

The American political system is completely retarded top to bottom and makes zero sense. It is currently incapable of reform.

They stopped expanding Congress in the 1910's, so it probably should be more like 600 members, instead of 300. ie it's not as proportional as it used to be. Districts are gerrymandered so that most seats are safe. Then the Senate is mostly flyover low population rural states so they get over represented. Then the Electoral college means you can get hammered in the popular vote and still win.

I'm not sure about the redneck thing, I thought that term was specific to US. Korea and Japan have some impressive stuff but I wouldn't say they're beating us. America has the best unis, and that's what drives the country, not the kindergarten research on softest bunnies and theories on finger paint composition.

I am aware most families can't homeschool, even ones that aren't divorced. I lucked out there, but there is no reason why we can't adopt a homeschool model if we must have compulsory education. Kids can teach themselves, teachers should just facilitate and answer any questions with a good ole' Google it, faggot. Every year they pass a standardized test and move on or go to juvie or something. Anything would be better than the current system. That's how my mom did it. She'd suggest books and explained the ged and act to me. She said I could do what I want but if I didn't get scholarships and shit through college I'd be working in the logging industry. I never was much for driving or yard work so I spent my time arguing on forums. Fortunately the standards are so low that reading the math textbooks she got me is all I needed to get it. Homework is a scam. If you don't get the concept after two problems you didn't get it, another 50 problems won't make you understand it and just wastes time of people who actually read the material.

Because the average American has no money worth speaking about they need banks to buy shit else the ceconomy would stagnate.

If you don't educate your workforce so they can keep up with the times they will be poor and not worth anything economically.

America always gave poorer people money they could never in their lifetime have so that they could stimulate the market that way.

The ACA substantially raised taxes on those making over 200k individually or 250k married. The people who own the media all make more than 200k.

The end goal is all just a repeal on the taxes which subsidize healthcare for the poor. The rich want the poor to die as long as it makes them a little bit richer. I'm not even kidding this is how fucked up America is.

Oh, also they really hate it because it makes it easier not to be a wageslave. It gives the slaves more rights and more options.

Libertarianism isn't bad in theory, but it can't be combined with unfetterd capitalism because that allows the wealthy to oppress the working class. Government should ensure personal freedom from the corporations. They should make it possible to own your own company, not make it legal for monopolies to dominate. Government intervention in the market is going to have to be a large part of libertarianism and I wish they would stop being cucked by the wealthy capitalist's propaganda.

That's not how you should look at things.
Robots right now could take over the entire workforce but it's not cheap enough.

Once it is cheap enough then robots will take over an entire sector, it works in chunks not in a slow gain of percentage.

If it is worthwhile for the entire sector to switch to robots it's worthwhile for the entire sector, people will need to make moves fast.

And it would only plunge society in chaos if you keep a capitalistic society. Surely socialism isn't the only way but once everything is automated and AI can innovate capitalism has become obsolete and outdated.

I only picked socialism because it already exists but I'm sure there will be better suited systems to run society once we get to that point because it is a vital question and people will group up to figure out a sufficient answer and I doubt such old systems like socialism have the answer to every problem we will be facing in that future.

Nah, the basic principle that personal freedom should be maximized in a society has merit, libertarians are just fucking morons when it comes to what they think they look like. They've been brainwashed by the Koch Brothers to think that freedom means freedom for the wealthy to exploit the poor. In reality it means the opposite. The government should protect the people's freedoms by protecting them against those who restrict them the most: their employers. For years they've kept the rabble fighting against each other for the scraps they provide by stirring up divisions, racial or otherwise. All the while people forget that the whole problem is that they're only giving us scraps. The super wealthy are super greedy and they gain more and more control over society while regular people lose that control and freedom. We can't compete when we're only given scraps which is how they like it. We must unite and use the power of the majority to wrest back the power from those too selfish to use that power for the greater good.

What do western proles have in common with their upper class besides race and vague notions of culture?
>>
>>34104504
That's just racist.

I'm sure brown people voted republican too, being retarded has nothing to do with race and I'm sure there are brown people who voted republican.

The red states are just dead weight at this point because they consistently failed to incetivise innovation and educate their people. That's not a race problem and if you think there are no racists in the democratic party or there is no racism in blue states you must be retarded.

It's about party politics and what was done and what is happening.
Red states are making objectively bad decisions and the only reason they aren't a wasteland is because of federal funding paid for by blue states who make the right choices economically.

This is not about social politics, educating your citizens has an economic impact that cannot be denied. The social aspect of it is just a byproduct.

People do not do stuff if there isn't profit in it for them.

The question is do you go for long term prosperity or fort term large money gain and red and blue states are showing the differences.
A society that moves with the time economically and one that constantly subsidies outdated economic sectors. Obviously you have very rich people in the red states but those are private persons, the state is running deep into red numbers.

So I'm already for a diminished upper and ruling class. I don't think private accumulation of capital should accrue to political power.

I would be more mad at the lack of technological progress, social security was always shit in America of the past years.

But they were strong in the economic sectors that mattered globally.

Currently there is a shift economically and the republican party is the representative of the old sectors so they will stop the shift in America as hard as they can so that the outdated sectors can keep their financial strength for 4 possibly 8 more years.

Imagine forcibly not progressing in Civ, that is what is going to happen and it's all cool and good until you have pikemen and you get invaded by tanks.

The main thing about trump is that he will just keep on embarrassing the US with his lack of dignity and his cluelessness he literally shouted at a reporter. Gwb got shoes thrown at him and he kept his composure, during 9/11 he kept his composure.

Considering I was the president in uni for my little club I think I did alright in socialization. I don't see how that has anything to do with designing curricula in the first place.

And that just shows how emotional liberatism is.

You support the entire society because a strong society makes for a strong country.

Subjective feelings shouldn't be an indicator for how things get run.

The government takes care of social security because it can spend in the most efficient way for society to grow strong even if that means that your buddy will be left to die.

I'm not a genius, I won't have kids but if I had there is a high chance they won't end up geniuses that come once in a lifetime the best solution is to create a society where everyone even if they have shit tier parents gets facilitated to grow and be that once in a lifetime genius.
The more people have access to education and social security means more potential geniuses, yes even those geniuses who would have not been geniuses if they didn't have that social security are important because any genius is worth something.

The more people get the chance to live out their genius the better for all of us.

It's not an emotional matter but a question of efficiency, we can easily afford to facilitate every single kid so it's worth it.
It's like paying one dollar a month for a 1% chance to get billion. Have a group of 100 people and the winner splits the profit with each other. That is a smart thing to do.


This is an objective argument to have social security, if we were 50 years in the past I'd agree that it isn't feasible because it would be more like spending 100 million dollars for a 1% chance of a billion. It wasn't worth it.

Now it is worth it and there is no reason not to do it.

This invalidates the wall. The wall is just a way for Trump to line his own pockets with taxpayer money. It will do next to nothing to stem the tide of illegals (as we just discussed), worsen relations with Mexico and the rest of the world and on top of that end up costing the U.S. billions annually for maintenance, not to mention the enormous cost of even building such a ridiculous monument to retardation.

Furthermore, it isn't that "ez" to just not issue visas for people from India and China. These countries have professionals that U.S. companies want, and frankly, need in order to maintain their operations. U.S. education simply doesn't churn out enough qualified people. The U.S. economy would suffer significantly if you simply stopped giving them visas.

Math education should be streamlined. If a kid is struggling, then break out all the magical new math that teaches you five ways to multiply, but don't force that shit on people.

All you need to start out with is math, reading and writing skills, and good self-study habits. And I guess a high tolerance for boredom so you can deal with all the bureaucracy.

The laws vary widely, but I donate to legal organizations that help families navigate the system. The state I grew up in only required a letter stating intent of homeschooling. Some go full nazi and require you take and keep tests, which pretty much invalidates the whole reason for it. The organization helped me to get on the schools baseball team. The assholes actually tried to say no because I wasn't enrolled, yet they gladly accepted my parents tax dollars even though I wasn't enrolled. A quick letter and two weeks later they changed their minds for some reason. There's always a way around the red tape.

You mentioned math and that's the only thing I'd have changed. I was still above average but I struggled with calculus in uni. I guess it's my fault for not looking into it more, but it'd have been nice to know I needed more than just algebra if I'm to do anything more rigorous than underwater basket weaving.

That kind of thought is short sighted at best. These people will not go silently into the night - they are a tax on society no matter what unless they have a job. If you give them no path forward for a job and to be productive, they will end up either on some kind of government or charitable dole, or in jail.
Either way, they're going to be taking your money. Programs to prevent poverty in the first place are a lot cheaper than throwing everyone in jail.

This is essentially the same thing with hospitals and emergency visits. Poor people will get what they need somehow, and it will be at your expense - the only lever you have to control is what that expense is.

He doesn't understand it intimately like I have, but he is speaking to the experience so I feel he understands it on some level. The difference in opinion comes down to our core beliefs.

The point is that reasoning with them has done absolutely no good. There's nothing left but schadenfreude honestly. Don't treat them like their opinions are even worthy of consideration, because they're not. These are people who still think climate change isn't real or that it isn't man made. These are people who by and large reject evolution. These are people who want to install theocratic policies in a country founded by people who expressly reject that.

They deserve nothing more than derision and ridicule for their idiocy. People are not entitled to opinions which fly in the face of observable reality, and I will not respect said opinions nor the people who hold them, and you shouldn't either.

This is just facetious. Your inability to separate Trump's policies from other ways to mitigate the same problem is not a lack of comprehension on my part.

All of that is beyond the scope of this thread. Companies should have to source H1B migrants from countries without high visa abuse.

>How do you propose to improve the educational system to the point where it obviates economic immigration?
I don't. We only have this program because our education is so shit, we should get to the point where we don't need it and prohibit it.

>>34106751
Because everyone is the same person.
>>
>>34106713

Its beyond the scope of this thread but a diverse portfolio based on mutual funds is the gist of it. Look up early retirement, trinity study, financial independence, etc. if you're interested.

With the right allocation you can retire once you've got 25x annual spending invested. Most early retirees still get a new income stream from their hobbies though, so honestly 25x may be a little high. Owning land in an area with low cost of living helps tremendously. My retirement is specific to my situation and area. It'd be an entirely different story if I intended to retire to a Manhattan penthouse. That's why it's hard to offer a one size fits all strategy.

You can't go wrong with being debt free and having lots of money though. Get that part down and figure the rest out over time. Depending on how hands on you want to be I can suggest vanguard or betterment. Vanguard is cheaper but it's more involved.

Guys the President still needs to sign the repeal into law and Obama's in until 20th (19th?). Trump will have his Health Secretary sworn in February. Republicans will have it "repealed" in name only as soon as Trump gets in, but it won't take effect until a replacement is there.

>>34107698
They usually have no arguments because it is a fact, facts are proven to be right.

Again it's not a neutral term, it's a verb that decribes an action, you're using the wrong word. This isn't even a political issue at this point but one of you denying the meaning of words and making up some sort of arbitrary judgement for words on how you feel they are perceived which isn't even an objective measurement since feelings are subjective.

Use words correctly, they are denying the truth of a scientific fact, how pretty they sound while doing it doesn't matter because at the end of the day.


You're not using a neutral term, you are refusing to use the correct term under the guise of being a pussy although I suspect you just refuse to use the correct term.

Hasn't been signed into law yet. Obama's still in. And when it is signed, a new plan that will including pre-existing conditions (According to Trump) will replace it. They might repeal ACA after the 20th, but it won't take effect until the new plan is ready to replace it.

>get energy while raping...

Solar panels and wind turbines can't consistently output power so backup coal-powered stations on standby have to be there and this creates more emissions than straight up using coal. Wind and solar are memes. Only nuclear energy is a viable, carbon-free solution or just straight up using coal like Trump wants.

Also manufacturing is a HUGE carbon emission producer and Trump'll bring manufacturing back here than we do it cleaner than China.

>allowing the ruch to get richer...

Look at the "blue" areas. DC. California. New York. It's so expensive and you're either poor or wealthy. Democrats propose higher taxes and more regulations, but big companies can evade those with accountants, lawyers, and lobbyists while small businesses and freelancers get screwed. This drives down competition and increases prices which makes things expensive. The liberals then have to move to other areas - Californians are going to Texas, DC people to Virginia, and New Yorkers to Florida and NC.

>allowing the shit working conditions...

Sounds like an exaggeration. Dems always say the sky is falling if you state you want to cut bureaucratic red tape that favors Big Corporations and Big Gov at the expense of the little guy.

>implying most immigrants don't already...

You're implying it's easy to build a long, undetectable tunnel with seismic detectors, air surveillance, snitches, and more border patrols. Digging and reinforcing a tunnel ain't easy.

That's bullshit, though. It won't be included and Trump only says it for the same reason he says anything: it's what people want to hear and they cheer for him when he says it.

Health Insurers will not cover pre-existing conditions without a universal mandate. They want everybody to be required to buy health insurance so that healthy people pay premiums and don't use services beyond maybe basic check-ups and such that cost less than what they are paying. Without a mandate, you're going to have a bunch of sick people who want health insurance and are going to use it, costing more than what they pay in premiums.

Republicans won't do a mandate, and without a mandate you don't get coverage for pre-existing conditions. But they'll still say there will be coverage because that's what people want to hear. If this election has taught us anything it's that there are plenty of ignorant people who are so gullible that it doesn't matter if what you're saying has any basis in fact or reality. Tell them what they want to hear and they'll believe you because they want it and that's all that matters.

there shouldn't be any reason to think the government is just a bunch of friendly dudes making a living trying to help everyone. what the fuck is wrong with liberals? you think that the success of your parents/grandparents in the coastal states has anything to do with forcing everybody to help pay for immigrants and homeless peoples education and healthcare? think of any positive period in american history where the govt wasn't a bunch of pricks who focused on innovation or were just ignored altogether by the people.

There's a 1500km wide gulf the wall won't cover. Yeah, nice protection.
Building a wall makes sense when the only border you have is land.

i doubt the wall will get much extra building. i'm just convinced that people like you would literally just watch some dude casually steal your car and you'd be tweeting about how crazy that is instead of taking action.

The border is 2k miles long and it would go through multiple timezones, it would probably be one of the most wasteful things ever built in modern times not including chinese replica towns.

I'd like to see americans try building it though, what's the worst that could happen?

I hope all that's true and more. Liberals deserve to get fucked over like all the working class whites they've been fucking the past few decades. We know how to survive being poor, they don't. I'm gonna laugh as I get to watch them burn.

Liberals tend to live in liberal states that already have liberal laws, all Trump will do against liberals is maybe keep weed sched 1 but the ones getting hurt the most will not be liberals because they have a buffer on state level.

Also when did liberals ever fuck up the working class whites? With minimum wage? Access to better schooling?

The ones who have fucked and will keep on fucking over the working class of all races are republicans and you keep voting republican so you have nobody but yourself to blame.

>it's not like hillary was a real candidate
But trump was?
Both of them were massive fucking losers. The problem with trump fanboys is that they think that being better than Hillary is enough of a reason to make him some kinda great choice.

Meanwhile anyone with a drop of maturity is just sitting over here wondering how we ever ended up in such a fucking mess.

Liberals literally said we(poor whites) don't exist. They spent this whole election saying white men are evil. I didn't vote. I'm a felon so I can't. I've spent most of my life unemployed and yet the wonderful liberals say I don't qualify for any government assistance because I live in Chicago and all our government money goes to blacks. If you're a poor white in Chicago you're fucked. I live in a neighborhood that has seen the Polish population decline by nearly 50% the past decade cuz of Mexicans moving in and attacking them. No one gives a fuck about that cuz were privileged right? You liberals are scum just like Republicans. I'm gonna enjoy watching you all suffer.

I'm not a liberal but this is fact speak, at the end of the day you're the cuck for being an american with a 2 party system.

I'm not going to suffer at all, federally all trump can do to hurt liberals is cut gay marriage and keep weed illegal so they won't suffer as well.

It's your fault you don't have more than 2 parties because in europe we have parties that are fiscally left but take a hardline stance against immigration aka not cucked.

Cry me a river bitch boy, I'm going to enjoy seeing the downfall of america you guys were always cucks and won't be missed.
