What do woke {left} wingers think about Ron Paul
mspart replied to Caveira's topic in Non Wrestling Topics
They hate him as surely as they hate Elon. Period. mspart -
Unless it reduces our taxes? Leftists want to raise taxes, go ask RV. He wants to tax the heck out of everyone. If they find savings enough to not raise taxes, would that work for you? Granted we are so far in the hole that is a tall order, but if they can find savings and not spend that the taxes sent in will soon equal the budget and then we will have surplus after that and our taxes won't need to be raised anymore. There is enough federal spending that current tax rates will cover future spending. Is it possible to erase the projected deficit this fiscal year? That's 2 Trillion and that would be awesome. Would you complain if they were successful at that? I look at what you have been posting recently and would have to say I think you would complain. But you should answer for yourself. Is there a reason you can think of why they shouldn't reduce spending by 2 trillion? Because if we can't we can't do anything about the deficit but raise taxes. And you won't get that much from all the rich dudes. mspart

Was there a reason to believe he was going to be a future terrorist? Does USAID normally pay tuition for people? If not, why did this guy get tuition? mspart

I don't know who, but the city of Seattle or the State of WA or King County decided it was a good idea to take away lanes on the I-90 floating bridge and put light rail here. It is probably Sound Transit who is a 3 county pseudo government that is not elected that made this decision. They are WAY over budget and WAY behind schedule because someone didn't take into account that a floating bridge moves. They have no sure foundation on which to put their light rail. All for climate change. Never mid that no one rides the lines they have up in other area in puget sound. They allow fentanyl addicts to light up in the trains and they haul those homeless people for free. It is not a safe environment. Such is crazy Seattle Leftism. mspart

The first sign that someone is racist is when they say they are not racist. How many times have we heard that? NOw that the shoe is on the other foot, it doesn't feel so good. mspart

Who is they? The left, the LGTB activists, Biden, the squad, the media. That's who "they" are. Yes, the kids are in a tough spot. They need extensive counseling. You complain about my post saying it is the worst you have ever read. But you fail to show how any of it is wrong. I'd say you are part of the "they" as well. I am not anti trans. I am anti minors being mutilated surgically or chemically. Let the kids alone. If they want to make the change, they can wait until they are of age. Science and medical knowledge tells us minors are not mentally equipped to make these kinds of decisions with such life long consequences. That is science and brain development. mspart

The left have not removed their playbook from consideration. They are using the old playbook and it is going nowhere for them. They look like lunatics when they continue to say nazi this and nazi that and authoritarian this and president Musk etc etc. Even with all that, Trumps polling is going up not down. https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/polls/favorability/donald-trump/ Read it and weep folks. His unfavorables are going down and his favorables are going up. He is more well liked now than at anytime during Trump 1.0. The left just doesn't get that the old playbook is obsolete. Time to talk about improving things in America for Americans. Not for this group or that group. It's not a big secret, it's just that they have not come to grips with this yet. mspart

What Boy Scouts did for the boys: 1. A lot of it was outside, learning. Camping, archery, rifle, hatchet throwing, snow sledding etc. 2. Inside stuff included citizenship studies, first aid studies, communication studies etc. 3. There was a path of progression. You knew how to progress. 4. There was leadership training. So the boys that were leaders learned valuable skills. The idea was to rotate so all the boys could gain these skills. A good organization when done right. All of these things are good things. mspart

I see two things. I am an Eagle Scout, all my boys are Eagle Scouts. My brother and my dad are Eagle Scouts. I was a scout leader for years. 1. Even when I was doing it back in the day, it was not the most popular thing to do. It got less popular over time because it was associated with military training I think. There really wasn't much of this, but it was regimented and you had to do things to get to a higher rank. But in reality, it was not the most popular thing to do for decades. Few community groups did it, it was mostly religious institutions that supported it. 2. They decided to add girls in the 16-18 year old groups and I think that was the beginning of the end. Pretty soon, they had girls participating from the youngest age. It was no longer Boy Scouts for boys. So I think the interest went out further. Now they are tying to move further in that direction and it is not working. These are my observations. mspart

https://nypost.com/2023/08/04/viktor-shokin-was-threat-to-burisma-says-hunter-biden-partner-devon-archer/ WASHINGTON — Ukrainian prosecutor-general Viktor Shokin, who was fired after then-Vice President Joe Biden threatened to pull $1 billion in US aid, was “a threat” to natural gas company Burisma Holdings, which paid Hunter Biden up to $1 million per year, the first son’s former business partner Devon Archer confirmed in an interview released Friday. “He was a threat. He ended up seizing assets of [Burisma owner] Nikolai [Zlochevsky] — a house, some cars, a couple properties. And Nikolai actually never went back to Ukraine after Shokin seized all of his assets,” Archer told former Fox News host Tucker Carlson. Shokin’s office won a court order to seize Zlochevsky’s property on Feb. 2, 2016, the Kyiv Post reported at the time. Shokin was fired on March 29, purportedly due to his own corruption. Archer’s remarks are significant because they contradict the position of House Democrats that Shokin was not considered a threat to Burisma — a point likely to be hotly contested if Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) launches an impeachment inquiry, as he said last week was becoming likely. I think you are incorrect. mspart

To show what hypocrites they are: Seattle Children's Hospital had a top surgery scheduled on a 16 year old. Day after Trump said no m ore, they cancelled the surgery. They could not afford to lose all the federal funds that keeps them in the black. These crusaders are in it for the money, not for the fundamental reasons they said, for the care of the adolescent. https://www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news/health/seattle-childrens-halts-some-gender-affirming-surgeries-following-trump-order/ mspart

You would think. It takes people on the right to support the women. First they said there isn't a problem. Next they said gender affirming care and surgery isn't happening. Next they said it is happening and it is a great thing that it is happening. Next they said it is beautiful that a man pretends to be a woman and competes athletically against them and creams them. Next they said there needs to be more gender surgery and must have them in prisons and for illegal aliens in prison. Next they demanded Title IX be changed to say a man is a woman. Now they complain that it is such a small problem that it is not worth taking any action over. They are the ones that made it a problem in the first place. And now they try to down play the effect. An honest look at this shows this is the case. mspart

Are there any black farm owners in S Africa that have had their land dispossessed? They should get the same deal. But it wasn't, it was the Afrikaners whose lands were dispossessed. Mugabe did this in Zimbabwe. They were a net exporter of food before this action. After this action they were a net importer of food because they took out the people who know how to farm and make money at it. They gave the farms to the workers who didn't and the farms failed. Each is a vendetta against a racial group. But that vendetta will backfire if they don't put people in there that know how to care for the land like the landowner does. Workers know only a part of how to run a successful farm. There is more to it than planting, watering, and picking. Just like socialists the world over, they don't think through a situation enough to see that their idea won't really work. But they are too invested in their ideology to stop. And they ruin their country. mspart

So you are saying that his worth is up 200 billion because of a couple of weeks of USAID? Comeon now, You said since the election. When did this 200Billion magically show up? https://www.investopedia.com/elon-musk-net-worth-tesla-spacex-ai-300-billion-8740315 Tesla CEO Elon Musk is the richest person in the world as of December 2024 and became the first person to have a net worth of over $400 billion, according to Bloomberg.1 The Bloomberg Billionaires Index estimates his net worth at around $442 billion as of this writing.2 Musk's net worth is largely driven by his stakes in Tesla and privately held rocket and satellite manufacturing company, SpaceX. Tesla's shares have increased nearly 70% in 2024, and have jumped since the election. Meanwhile, an insider share sale of SpaceX in December 2024 boosted Musk's net worth by about $50 billion, according to Bloomberg.1 Musk's net worth has increased by 77% since Trump's reelection as president in November, per Bloomberg.1 Musk has been vocal in his support for Trump, Forbes reported, joining him on the campaign trail and becoming Trump's second largest donor by putting $118 million into America PAC, which Musk created.3 Musk was appointed as co-lead of President-elect Trump's new Department of Government Efficiency, alongside former Republican presidential candidate, Vivek Ramaswamy. So he was worth 226 Billion before the election and at the end of Dec was worth 400 Billion? And this because the stock in his companies has gone up that much? He hasn't had time to do anything of real importance yet with DOGE. I fail to understand with Trumps stand on renewable energy and scrapping money for e cars, how this would help Tesla which grew 70% in value in 2024, not just since the election. mspart

Here we have RV, a self proclaimed budget hawk, complaining about someone digging into spending and rooting out waste. This is really funny. Oh yeah, right. RV wants more taxes but no tightening of spending except in DOD expenditures. mspart
