RedditsuxTrump Says the U.S. Can't Pay for Healthcare or Daycare, Only War
Well it looks like I’m not going to be able to pay my taxes this year.
I hear so many people make that statement. I realize most are just making a flippant “joke”.
Not paying your taxes, assuming you owe any federal taxes, is a recipe for a whole heap of trouble and expensive if you’re working class. This isn’t VISA where you can basically just ignore the debt for X number of years and then you’re in the clear. The federal government has considerably more options for getting the money owed.
government can’t come for you if your tear it down and build a new one
And unicorns can’t fart if you steal their butts!
TropicalDingdongYeah its a good thing that never in history have governments, sometimes of the largest economies and some the most capable of projecting force, its a good thing that never in history have governments collapsed, been replaced whole cloth.
Its a good thing thats never happened, otherwise your sarcasm could be mistaken for a deep, toxic, counter productive cynicism.
Oh I don’t know. Maybe just pick any of them. Perhaps most recently, that one weird event which resulted in the formation of the nationstates Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Estonia, Georgia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Latvia, Lithuania, Moldova, Russia, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Ukraine, and Uzbekistan.
I think there is just an expectation of a certain level of political and historical literacy when you are having a conversation in a news or politics forum.
PoastRotatoSeems like a great way to discourage the folks who need that knowledge from requesting it
You don’t hop into a league football match and then ask the other players on the bench what the rules are. Maybe read the wikipedia first, or just sit in the stand till you work the basics out.
Except this isn’t a football match. It’s real life, and the more people we have who are armed with knowledge to make wise decisions, the stronger our position. A spectator’s knowledge of football won’t influence the outcome of the game. You can’t exactly say the same about this.
Its just, its such an obtuse take. People are just asking you to put out a mediocre amount of effort to educate yourself, and your argument is basically “No, its the comments sections job to teach me political science”.
This isn’t about arming or positions, this is about “did you think for a second before you asked that?”
