I’m sick?I don’t love my neighbor? You think you can talk to me like I’m a monster?

Not getting rid of ec :: because I believe that it’s too easy to sway public opinion one way or another and there should be protections in place for communities that are smaller than say, NYC. 

Not increasing the minimum wage :: because I believe that this will cause our already rising cost of living to increase faster. 

Not taxing the fuck out of corps for an arbitrary profit margin :: because that’s a persons entire life. That could be you. It could be my son. It could be the girl at the local mosque who was raised in foster care and worked her ass off to become successful. And then some little ant online thinks it’s okay to tax the fuck outta her just because she’s done something with her life. 

PLEASE. I’m begging you please tell my how I’m the monster.

Yeah man I’m all for killing monopolies. Hasn’t happened, won’t happen. Money drives the world, those monopolies are spending a considerable amount of their time and money lobbying the gov to make it so they can make MORE money, not less.

Now. If we also get rid of lobbying and make it a federal offense or treason to manipulate the legislative branch for monetary incentives, we got something.

Damn now talking like normal people is privilege. No wonder everyone else is fucking crazy.

And also thanks for commenting on all my comments. Love you

It’s pretty simple really. Raising the minimum wage will cause inflation to everything else to balance out and we will be right back where we started. People can’t afford anything. But now with even higher and overly inflated prices.

That’s just how economics works. None of that trickle down bs or any other partisan view.

Simple cause and effect, and scarcity.

Easier to think I’m a troll than to believe someone could say those words and be serious?

Well I’m not. So strengthen up buddy boy.

That was indeed the compromise.
