I used to think most of the posters here were being intentional when seeing things only through partisan goggles or strawman-ing arguments--i.e., trolling. I don't really believe that's the case for the majority, though. Instead it is a microcosm of extremists on either side, who can't see the world in anything but "right" or "left". After all, only in a place like this would someone like me, who:

voted for Trump
thinks the welfare system sucks
owns firearms and supports the 2nd amendment
is anti-abortion
is religious

be considered a "leftist", simply because I disagree with some of the ways in which the "right" wants to do things, and because I also think that we, as a society, should try to help the less fortunate through some means of social support, as well as thinking everyone is entitled to a basic level of healthcare.

and yet you don't think women should have the right to terminate unwanted pregnancies, instead forcing them to bring an unwanted child into the world which other people will inevitably end up supporting. It must be nice to be able to spend other peoples money like that

Politicians are elected to represent the people, but the current system represents special interests far and away more than the people as a whole. You can see this in virtually every kind of legislation. Corporatocracy, plutocracy, crony capitalism, whatever you want to call it - it isn't democracy.
I believe the above is accepted as truth by most of the people on this board. No post that i have read on here would say they prefer the system we currently have to something that allows more freedom for the people, except for Absent and the others that prefer to live in a command economy, ruled by the overlords in the central planning department.

In the past, i have posted the links for a citizen-funded bill, Citizens United (albeit, even if it was doomed to fail, it was a good start) that would remove the ability for corporations and UNIONS from donating to politicians under the guise of, "money is 'free-speech'" for corporations, which we all know is total crap.

The problem with saying the above is that there are soooo many aspects of the economy that are constantly changing that it is basically impossible to say that '"giving the wealthy more of their money" instead of forcibly removing it and giving it to people who produce nothing, "does not typicallyproduce much economic growth."'

Now, I will freely admit, as I have numerous times in the past, that the .00567% of the wealthy do not produce or purchase anything - essentially are a zero-sum game in the grand scheme of economics - while it's the 2%ers and the 1%ers that are overtaxed, work long and hard for their money and buy all kinds of useless **** that keeps the economy going. But getting the politicians to admit that the 1 & 2%ers are the cornerstone of any economy, especially when they frequently have their .00567%ers get on their soapbox in front of the media, and demand that taxes be raised on the 1%, as we just saw yesterday or the day before, is political suicide. The .00567% are trying to destroy the 1% as they view them as a direct threat to their empire.
“Most of us have no sympathy with the rich idler who spends his life in pleasure without ever doing any work. But even he fulfills a function in the life of the social organism. He sets an example of luxury that awakens in the multitude a consciousness of new needs and gives industry the incentive to fulfill them.”

And written in secret of course, because the public can't be a party to the conversation of taking their rights away.
Agreed with the above, even though I did not vote for El Trumpo.

Except virtually all growth in the economy goes to Wall Street or London like leeches when they produce absolutely nothing of value except digital zeroes. The productivity of the people is sapped away by these leeches and it shows in the widening wealth gap.

And, unfortunately, the average citizen cannot see through these stratagems. The liars must be afraid of the truth and are therefore driven to suppress its pronouncement.

That right there basically boils down to a guy who's going to do everything he can to benefit himself, and by extension, the rich. The whole 'eliminate estate tax' is probably the most obvious one out there.

Trump was a fantastic option for the super-rich. Probably the best since Reagan himself, maybe even longer. You bought the rhetoric, not the reality.
I thought stupid unemployed fly over rednecks elected Trump. Get your story straight

It's a long term proven fact that access to cheap / free birth control lowers teen / poor pregnancies, which in turn lowers both abortion rates and government assistance payouts.

Getting rid of it is asinine. This is the furthest from MAGA. It's retarded.
Ideological argument. Be responsible and quit relying on the gov to steer your life

The general idea is that demand-side economics drives the economy. Most people do not produce nothing, that is a small subset of the population. Yes, there are a lot of factors at play, and I don't particularly support the government taxing the rich more and then turning it into bloatware services. I support more of a monetarist Friedman type theory of helicopter money. In the absence of that, taxing the rich more as they squeeze the middle and lower classes will become necessary because more and more people will not be able to afford basic goods and services. Especially with more automation on the horizon.

I don't blame capitalism, I blame primarily the banking/currency system. There are varying levels of socialism that are present in all first world economies - you need to find a happy medium. Mises is crap, by the way. Hayek is much more prolific.

See that makes you a left fag. The right disagree with your assumption that the gov owes everyone free ****. Someone has to pay. You are asking Americans to forfeit the meager pay they get just to spread the wealth to lazy ******s and illegal mexicans.. not to mention the 56% refugee welfare usage
