Why is the proposed solution always to just pay people more and not just make things cost less? The only reason I can find is that making things cost less doesn’t provide a scapegoat for everybody to rally behind, even though it would be more effective.

Rice, beans, potatoes. All cheaper per serving and way healthier than Ramen. Up until recently, eggs.

Healthy food doesn’t cost more than crap food. The people that say that is because a fast food burger costs five bucks and a pound of ground beef also costs five bucks without the bread or cheese or ketchup. But that pound of meat will give you eight of the fast food burger.

No it doesn’t. Stop lying.

Oh, I don’t. I’ll protect myself. Where I live the police are about fifteen minutes away. Ain’t nobody got time for that.

You don’t need a gun. Just call the police. They’ll take care of you.

No one is stopping you. Go for it!

What’s the threshold of income that would meet your criteria? Do you normally base jail time off of someone’s income, legally or illegally?

Now that sync works with lemmy, I pretty much forgot about reddit. I wish there were the same communities, but I figure it’s just a matter of time.

Nobody can buy automatic weapons. Haven’t been able to since 1986. I would recommend a class in firearms so you actually know what you’re talking about, strengthening your argument. Currently as it stands, you are just repeating the right buzzwords without being close to correct.

Do people still not realize that high school gossip isn’t journalism? So it’s rather stupid for a news publication to pass off such crap as news.

Dehydrated grapes drying out is a concern?

Go ahead and explain the contradiction.

You mean to tell me we can completely afford all the social programs we have and the country actually isn’t in debt?

You do realize there are far more nationalities than Mexican entering the country, right? I know racist hear the word immigrant, and all they think is brown people, but come on. Do better.

So you’re just trying to write the most incorrect statements in one reply? Since when did being born in the 80s mean boomer? You can go ahead and keep assuming, you seem to like being a dumbass.

But how would we have roads??

It is a sham. I agree with you, we shouldn’t be the world’s army. Israel, Ukraine. Way too much money and military weaponry given away.

I see you know all the buzzwords. That just might even be a record!

Life Pro Tip for that guy: You should understand what you’re talking about. The reason why all these European countries have these great social programs is because they actually are tough on immigration and don’t have the strain on social programs like we do. If it’s such a shithole, why are immigrants risking their lives to enter the US by any means available?

We’re lucky as fuck to have you here to assess the needs of the entire population. Here’s an example. I do concerts for a living. We haul mobile stages. They are quite a few tons. What vehicle to you recommend we tow them with? And should we bring a second vehicle to drive around while the stage is in place for the weekend instead of using the truck that’s already there?
