  1. Republicans got double karma from Stacy. The racist run off system and taking the governorship from her through voter suppression both came back to haunt them

  8.  @zinaj9437  "crt" isnt actually a thing actually tought in schools. It's an optional post graduate program in a handful of universities. Unfortunately consirvatives are using it as an excuse to ban the teaching of any history that paints the US in a negative light. Stuff like slavery or jim crow

  9. thats the trade off for growth and high employment levels. No free lunch. Also wages rise with inflation, so your purchasing power often stays the same or grows over time

  10.  @Jkp1321  companies making a pro LGBT tweet doesnt mean they're aligned with the left lol truth is Republicans love nothing more than giving tax cuts to the rich and privatising every aspect of life empowering the 1%. Just look at trumps tax cuts, almost all of the benefits went to his rich golf buddies

  26.  @oldskoolmusicnostalgia  The haven't had decades of deflation, they've had bouts of deflation over certain periods of time, but even that has crippled their economy with a lost decade of stagnation. That's why they've been trying desperately to stimulate inflation for a long time

  28.  @Jkp1321  I'm sure they vote democrat (the party rhats always trying to increase taxes on them) instead of Republican (the party thats always giving them generous tax cuts and that believes in the Reagan lie of "trickle down economics")

  41.  @dontmisunderstand6041  We're not talking about other countries tho are we? We're talking about the US. We ARE a democracy. Having representatives make the decisions is the entire basis of a representative democracy.

  42. ​ @jacobjankowski That isn't true. Social security isn't funded by the trust funds. In fact, theres no money in the trustfunds at all. They exist merely as accounting entities. The federal gas tax hasn't been enough to cover the highway "trust fund" for decades and yet we never have an issue maintaning them, they're paid for through general revenue. Have you ever wondered why all of these reports about how the trust funds are going bankrupt always leave out the SMI trust fund? Becuase the law says that the SMI trust fund is backed by the faith and credit of the government. All they'd need to do to end the worry about SS going bankrupt would be to give that same legal protectino to the OASI ns DI trust funds too
