Yes.


Why do you focus so much effort on how a small part of your taxes are allegdly mismanaged while ignoring what happens with the rest?

And just to confirm you are libertarian right? Cambo style

Done do, others don't. Others live on their old money expecting the world to bow to their desires simply because they have money their parents earned.


I think giving children money directly is probably a mistake. Opportunity and experience are what they need, getting out of university with no debt and internship experience sets you far, far, ahead.

I focus hardly any effort on this issue. I've made one thread about it in my entire life and pretty much just gave up on posting in it.

I saw a video that blew my mind and posted about it. I work 80 hours a week 21 days in a row then get 3 days off. I don't have time to spend so much effort.

Over the past 13 years that I've been interested in politics my main issue has been foreign policy. 2001 being the catalyst that drove my curiosity.

21 days in a row? If you don't mind me asking, what exactly is it that you do?

My memory isnt that great but all i can remember is this thread and another one where you claimed you had a black friend something something ra ra ra poor people foodstamp - so it seems like thats all you focus on

Does he make enough money to actually pay taxes or does he get them all back as a refund check, or more if he has children?

how do you propose making these opportunities open up for the children of parents living below the poverty line? You don't want them to receive money directly, if they don't deserve food stamps
and free or low cost healthcare, then just how in the blinking stars are they going to live long enough to even make it out of grade school?

You say the mother needs to go get work...do you know that the state will yank all support if she starts earning a minimum amount of money, she'll lose her low-cost housing, and food stamps ssi is just a stop-gap
program and doesn't pay forever anyway. So the government actually penalizes a person for trying to better themselves. with the low paying jobs that are available to under-educated people who need flexible schedules because of their children a job that would pay enough for housing, food, utilities, and some healthcare would be nearly impossible to find.
