Everything more civilized than "The one with the biggest club gets to do what they want" is due to government. To tear government down is to endorse dog-eat-dog, might-makes-right competitive anarchy. Just so we're clear on where we're heading.
Conservatism is a crime against humanity.

Congressman Joseph Neguse serving as the U.S. representative for Colorado's 2nd district put the Government Shutdown into perfect perspective. His statement here should resonate with American's from all walks of life.
That's the point of the smugness
It's about the spite the ruling class has toward We The People, nothing else.
Remember Dick Nixon before he dicks you?
I'm old enough to remember when Republicans went to the White House and told the President it was time to hit the bricks.
Ah, but that pesky IOKIYAR stops all progress once again.
Try to do better. Economic growth is better for everyone
The only thing it omits is the spite the wealthy feel that keeps the poors in their place.
They have by eating the tariffs
It just went from 1 hours pay to a half hours pay
More customers = economies of scale bringing prices down not up
It doesn't work that way. When the poors have money it is circulated in the economy, it is spent. This creates economic growth. When the wealthy retain the money instead of paying workers the money is saved/sheltered/kept in offshore acct causing no growth. Pay workers. It is good for everyone.
There is no purpose for a corporation other than to shield the worst among us from accountability for their decisions and actions.

FACTS about SNAP:

-35% to white people (largest share)
-90% to people born in 🇺🇸
-86% to households with kids
-70% work full time but aren’t paid a living wage (aka corporate welfare)
He has a football, you know.
Who did they swear that oath to? Musta been some guy they don't respect much because they sure have no problem breaking that oath to him. Almost as if they realize there is no hell to be damned to. Huh.
There aren't 6 conservatives in the world with enough humanity, let alone 6 out of 218. There is no way a society can survive if it allows conservatives a say in governance. They're the ones we need protection from. No one needs protection from liberals except conservatives who already have too much
You can't have govt with conservatives in it. They turn govt into business, the antithesis of what governance is. A business maximizes profit by pricing people out of the market. Govt can't/shouldn't/mustn't. Government is for everyone, it is all of us. Except conservatives. They're just assholes.
There was a judge who sat there after 34 felony convictions were handed in from the jury and said to himself, "This felon wants to be President. I'd better not sentence him or he might has a sad". And here we are. That judge should be serving the sentence for him for not doing his gd job.
