We all know what he means by "socialists."

BLM is "socialism". Anyone not like him = "socialists."

Socialists don't have one job, they usually have 3 or 4, that's why they wants socialism, because capitalism has only ever screwed them over.

There is an entire economy built around keeping poor people poor. If you don't know that, then you're not paying attention. I escaped it by pure luck and an insane amount of blessings. I know people who had more talent and who work harder than I do and have half as much to show for it.

But anyone who has read his posts knows he's racist. It's a decent idea to type it out every now and again.

I forget how soft old white men who have been sniffing their own farts for so long they think they weren't born on third can be.
Because of people like you, the word racist no longer has any meaning. And apparently only black people are poor. You and Waco1947 are two of the most hateful white men (towards white men) I have ever encountered in my 57 years of life. You should just be happy to be here!
Yes, it's always fun to hear old white guys blame others for "ruining" racism.

Let's be honest, it never meant anything to an old turd like you.

Add this to the warehouses of things you don't understand: I don't hate you. I pity you. I truly feel sad for you. You lack of introspection means you miss out on a chance to do a lot of good in the world. If I hated you, or even worse, if I was indifferent to you, I wouldn't bother with you.
Why am I required to do good for the world?
I'm not at all surprised you would ask that question.
Answer it.

Why am I required to perform service for others? Why am I required to worsen my own livelihood for equity?
I never said you were required to do anything for others.

Your premise is disgusting, if predictable, however. Your faith requires it. But honestly, the American ideal requires it. You pay taxes because we need roads and private investment would not do that. To be quite honest, doing well for others pays off in the long run. Adam Smith admitted as much, why can't you?

We all benefit from a society where we invest in each other, and where meritocracy is an actual thing. But if there is not a truly level playing field, then meritocracy cannot truly exist. The ultimate freedom is only truly possible in a society that is equitable.

How many Einsteins were lost because they were born in the poor, rural, south? How many future leaders were lost because they were born to parents that, suffering from mental illness and could not afford their medication, dragged their family down with them?

It takes only a bare minimum of imagination to see the limitless benefits of giving a **** about other people.

It would cut into your conspiracy twitter time, though, so I'm not holding out a lot of hope for you.
That's rich
you can substitute "poor inner-city north" for all I care. same principle stands.

About 3% of taxes go towards roads and infrastructure. Law enforcement firefighters are about 5%.

We have plenty of tax dollars to do what you want.

Our taxes are going to the federal or state government where they are used to make the wealthy wealthier through special interests. You want to give them more?

That's a sensational statement. Could be in the Democratic Party Platform. Exactly how are our federal and state taxes used to make the wealthy wealthier? Farm subsidies? Ok. What else?

Wait... are we going to act like you'd be okay with increasing SNAP and aid programs? You're absolutely against that. Don't act like you're not. You call them wasteful despite the fact that they have incredibly low courses of fraud, and those very programs end up paying for themselves?

You want to save money, look at the defense budget. Do we need to spend more than the next 25 countries in the world combined?

I'm not against it though...?

They are wasteful. Doesn't mean they're not necessary. I'm arguing for better spending so we can have better welfare...instead of asking more from middle class taxpayers paying into a federal government that isn't frugal.

I agree.

What you need to do is stop assuming what I believe.

Wait... are we going to act like you'd be okay with increasing SNAP and aid programs? You're absolutely against that. Don't act like you're not.
I'm not against it though...?

You call them wasteful despite the fact that they have incredibly low courses of fraud, and those very programs end up paying for themselves?
They are wasteful. Doesn't mean they're not necessary. I'm arguing for better spending so we can have better welfare...instead of asking more from middle class taxpayers paying into a federal government that isn't frugal.

You want to save money, look at the defense budget. Do we need to spend more than the next 25 countries in the world combined?
I agree.

What you need to do is stop assuming what I believe.
They aren't wasteful at all. That's incorrect. They actually generate more economic dollars than they cost.
