It's absurd to me that people think that the Democrats will somehow make everything "more affordable" if they get elected. They made everything more expensive in the first place.

Virtually every Democrat policy has been a short term slight of hand to get immediate profits at the cost of long term inflation and debt.

De-industrialization: First Clinton passed NAFTA promising that it would "create union jobs" and then he got China into the WTO and blew apart the manufacturing base piece by piece. Millions of jobs were sent to China and existing industries had their supply chains shifted to a single source supplier because everybody else got put out of business as that single source supplier is a hostile communist state that's waging economic warfare on us. Oh, and they don't invent anything either and didn't know how to build anything really so we handed them 100 years of blood sweat and tears R&D on a silver platter because Democrats thought it was a good idea. People lost their good manufacturing jobs and now have to buy "cheap" products from China on credit because they don't have any money. How "cheap" are those products now by the way? Oh, and the The Green New Scam is the final nail in the coffin for US industry.

The Student Loan crisis: Since we now were in a "service economy" (scam economy) where everybody was supposed sit in an office (not even anymore) and not do any kind of physical labor those people needed to get a college degree first to look very smart. But since most people couldn't afford college the Democrats (Clinton again) decided to start handing out student loans like they're candy. It didn't even matter what you wanted to study or where, somebody would hand out a loan to you for it to the tune of six figures. This created a boom in private colleges filled with mediocre academics as standards were simultaneously dropped to spur enrollment. Then throw in some pseudoscience to really get the victimization train going and give cushy college teaching jobs to ex hippie radicals and you have the current scenario we find ourselves in today. But when arguing with a Republican online be sure to point our how much more "educated" the left is than the right.

Obamacare: The great betrayal that not a single Republican voted for. If you're wondering why healthcare is so expensive then you might want Google something called the "Public Option." It was the only form of cost controls proposed in the bill and was pulled out of the final version. And remember: Not a single Republican voted for the bill.

The Green New Scam: This is really one of the most sinister Dem scams of them all because it relies on the ignorance of the general public of how the critical energy systems that keep the country running actually function. The goal, like everything else, is to make us completely dependent on a never-ending supply of short cycle "green energy" junk made in (of course) China. I've wrote about this in the past but the cliff notes version is that the Democrats use state regulations to phase out reliable on-demand energy sources and then replace them with intermittent short cycle junk that needs continuous replacement and drives up energy costs because they continuously overestimate its capability and underestimate its actual costs. They also use accounting and statistical fraud to shut down viable power plants with nothing to replace them with, thus creating artificial scarcity. The entire thing is designed to be a self-referencing cycle of continuous cost increases that were never supposed to happen. You're already seeing it in blue states' insane energy prices that just keep climbing. The actual goal to to finally kill off any industry the state has left and send to to China like they did with the rest of it. That's because Dem politicians like Hochul and Newsom are Chinese assets. Hochul's Deputy Chief of Staff was a literal Chinese agent.

If the Democrats actually get back into power they will do literally nothing to reduce the price of anything. They'll actually do the opposite because it's what their agenda demands and they'll wrap it up in vague platitudes, virtue signaling and blaming Trump and their constituency will eat it up. Oh, and if they get control of everything it'll be their number one priority to naturalize all illegal and legal immigrants so they can vote in a permanent one party state.

Trying to ban local police from cooperating with ICE is peak woke delusion.

I can't believe that people actually think that this isn't just performative nonsense. You know that propaganda term "whataboutism?" You know what it actually refers to?

Past precedent.

i.e. the reason it's used is to deflect from someone's own past behavior as they sanctimoniously lecture you about yours. That's why it's so popular with the left.

You cannot just ban a legitimate Federal agency from cooperating with, or operating within, a local jurisdiction. You wanna know why, huh leftists?

Because that would set the PRECEDENT (one of the foundations of case law) that you can ban ANY Federal agency from cooperating with the local police or operating within a state's jurisdiction.

It's completely unreal how far gone the left is. They don't live in reality in any sense. Everything they do is performative, pseudoscientific idiocy.

EDIT: In case anybody is wondering how absurd the NY law actually is:

"Mask/identification ban: Prohibits state, local, and federal law enforcement officers (including ICE) from wearing identity-obscuring face coverings while interacting with the public (exceptions for medical masks, tactical gear, sunglasses, etc.). Requires visible identification. (This provision faced a temporary court halt.)"

𝕏 uncovered a Chinese bot farm of roughly 200,000 accounts, including hundreds used to influence U.S. debate over AI data centers & energy policy, because green energy is a scam.

Like I've been saying all along, the entire "green energy" agenda, as pursued by the left, is a CCP scam. It's an archetypical misapplication of engineering resources to fuel government funded get rich quick schemes and to hobble our competitiveness while propping up the murderous Chinese Communist regime.

https://x.com/Polymarket/status/2093135830042714477

EDIT: " What's the scam here, bro? They're just investing in the future, bro."

Wind and solar are subsidized by the taxpayer at 30-50%. Nat gas is subsidized at around 5-10%.

Every major virtue signaling big tech company from Alphabet to Meta are all now rolling back their "green energy" plans (after telling everybody in no uncertain terms that everyone must go to "renewables" or they're all bad people) while Democrat run governments are going full steam ahead with them for the common household. This is because they all know that it can't power their datacenters, let alone cities in general. The scam is that the vast majority of it is heavily subsidized and since its intermittent and unreliable the more you install the more it drives up costs. The politicians don't care because they're all in the back pocket of the ones who are running the scam.

Western NY sits on the Marcellus shale formation, a literal ocean of nat gas that the NYS government has banned anyone from tapping into while simultaneously shutting down viable power plants with nothing to replace them with other than "energy imports." Energy bills are now skyrocketing in the state.

NYS energy reports DO NOT DENOTE GENERATION SOURCE OF "ENERGY IMPORTS."

Do any of you get that? They shut down local power then switch in "imports" because they are "neutral" on paper in terms of whether or not they impact the environment. It is a quintessential accounting scam.

The goal is to completely de-industrialize the first world while making it completely dependent on China and India who use slave labor and are the world's largest polluters.

And that's just the beginning.

Cut off the welfare state and you won't have a skilled trades or unskilled worker shortage anymore

By "welfare state" I mean the endless government subsidy of able bodied people, sometimes to the point of being a lifestyle for generations. It's going to happen anyway because it's not sustainable. The COVID scam was functionally a dry run for it and we ended up with massive inflation and a huge host of new social problems that still aren't resolved.

Nothing good can come out of paying people to do nothing all day, It's juts a simple fact. That's already been done in American inner cities controlled by the left for decades and what's been the result?

Skills are self sufficiency. Self sufficiency is empowerment. The welfare state is the antithesis of this.

The amount of engineered bias and absurd leftist propaganda on this site is actually comical.

I usually don't make two posts in a day but I just had to point this out. Google is paying this website $60 million a year for what? Leftist self-reinforcing propaganda loops, created by hostile foreign states?

What this reminds me of is how the legacy media is in its death throes but still continues to double down on their propaganda even though the horse has already left the barn.

All the banning, blatant censorship, the same tired argumentative tactics based on logical fallacies and routines just looks so desperate to the point of actually being funny.

The DSA demolition/implosion of the Democrats is now fully underway.

Bill Maher let the cat out of the bag to all the aloof, clueless Dems who had no idea what was actually happening because they live in affluent bubbles. Most of them had no clue at all who was being voted in but now they do, which are communists.

Good luck in the mid-terms, Dems.

The Democrats, out of pure desperation, are promoting the toxic socialist politics of the 1970's and the results will be even more disastrous this time around if they succeed.

All that's old is new again.

So, another DSA grifter wins the Democratic Senate primary in Michigan. It's ironic considering that Detroit was under socialist control by the Coleman Young administration for 20 years and the city of Detroit was virtually destroyed by its policies.

Detroit was once the richest city in the country until socialists took control of it.

They had unfettered power to enact whatever policies they wanted and what you ended up with was total destruction. That's because, like I keep trying to tell people, deconstruction is the goal. And they keep saying the right is made up of stupid people.

If you want to see how "educated" you'd need to be to vote for DSA just drop by their website and have a look:

https://program.dsausa.org/#narrative

EDIT: Since this is picking up steam here's an excerpt from the DSA's website:

"You have no debt. You don’t need health insurance. You don’t pay a mortgage or have a landlord, because comfortable housing is a human right. Your retirement is publicly funded. Food, education, energy, medicine, and transportation aren’t for-profit businesses; they are common goods and utilities."

It's literally straight out of a pro Soviet propaganda poster.

Welfare is bad and it has destroyed more than anybody realizes.

I find it amusing that the typical limousine liberal types are always clamoring for more welfare benefits, acting like it's worked wonders to "help communities" and that if you disagree they respond with some absurd semantical argument.

How many of them have lived anywhere near a neighborhood that had a high rate of poverty and welfare recipients? How many have lived in a poor city in general?

They point to the usual lies, damn lies, and Democrat statistics. They argue that without it you'd have abject and total poverty and that it's actually increased incomes but they never actually delve into, or even collect the data that would represent the real cost of welfare.

They point to unadjusted numbers for income and housing values in high welfare areas while ignoring the fact that literally nobody collects any comprehensive data on business losses in those areas or home demolitions over time, if at all. Everything leftist academics do now is some kind of grift.

What have any of them since JFK (The Civil Rights Act was actually his and he was staunchly anti-communist) actually done to make anything actually better for anybody? Other than themselves of course?

The migrant stampede in Spain is just a preview of what's going to happen in the US if the Democrats regain power.

So far 67 people are dead (it's a literal slaughter) and of course the leftist government of Spain takes no responsibility for any of it. The legacy media (DNC) only mentions it briefly and of course none of any of this is the fault of leftist ideology, which is always the case when the left creates humanitarian disasters like Libya, which was the precursor to all of this.

And you wonder why people vote for Trump. Because the left is completely disconnected from reality.

Cue the deflections, definist fallacies, claims of "bad faith" arguments, and when that all fails, feigning ignorance.

The left elevated Fauci to being their cult hero while knowing full well that he caused the pandemic in the first place and was trying to sell everybody the "cure," as always.

Somehow the left memory holed Fauci's AIDS vaccine debacle:

"Federal researchers on Thursday dropped plans for a large-scale test of an experimental AIDS vaccine developed by the National Institutes of Health - the latest fallout from the failure last September of a similar candidate from drugmaker Merck & Co. that may have left some volunteers more vulnerable to HIV infection."

Sounds familiar? He also experimented on kids on the 1980's resulting in mass protests.

And of course he funded gain of function research at the Wuhan lab to get around the US ban on stateside GOF research. And of course a GOF enhanced virus "escapes" from that lab while Trump is in the middle of a trade war with the Democrats' biggest cash cow, China.

What a coincidence.

The left now hates Elon Musk because he allows people to show how completely fake and hypocritical the left actually is.

You remember when Elon was their "green energy" hero? You couldn't say anything bad about him or his company or you were branded a "fascist" and a "mouth breather." Now, if you actually own one of his products then you're a "fascist" and a "mouth breather."

That's because leftists are programmable. They can be programmed to believe literally anything as long as you use certain psychological methods and that it confirms something that they want to believe, primarily that they're supposed to get something for nothing.

The entire left wing agenda can be summed up as everything they want that you have to get for them or you're a bad person.

It's the politics of perpetual juveniles.

EDIT: Here's my latest favorite example of rank leftist hypocrisy:

Secondly, all of you were in the tank for Graham Platner before he got cancelled and he had an actual Nazi tattoo on his chest for 20 years and none of you cared.

DSA are imploding much faster than expected and it's going to be really entertaining. Except for the people who were dumb enough to vote for them in the first place. I told you so.

I started to watch the Maine Senate debates and then stopped because it was absurd to the point of being disgusting. There were people on that stage that are literally mentally ill and there are people on the left that would happily vote for them if they had the chance.

The countries that the DSA point to as Socialist aren't actually socialist in the way they claim they are.

In 2015, the Danish Prime Minister Lars Rasmussen stated:

“I know that some people in the U.S. associate the Nordic model with some sort of socialism. Therefore, I would like to make one thing clear. Denmark is far from a socialist planned economy. Denmark is a market economy.”

Social Democratic Minister of Finance Kjell‐Olof Feldt stated:

“That whole thing with democratic socialism was absolutely impossible. It just didn’t work.”

Also, they are now instituting remigration policies because mass third world migration is destroying their welfare states.

So the new Federal Reserve working paper on housing pretty much confirms the obvious that housing costs were hugely inflated by Biden's migrant invasion.

It's incredible how you can't point out the obvious to Democrats anymore. Even though they were always devious and fake it's really beyond the pale at this point. Basic economics and arithmetic no longer apply to them in their carefully constructed fantasy worlds. Common sense has no meaning or purpose. It's all just what they want to believe at any given point in time, they're always virtuous and right and you're a bad person if you don't agree.

Well, you can thank Democrat policies for all the higher prices in housing and in the general economy. Which anybody with a high school level economics education could have told you years ago.

If you vote for communists then you are a communist.

They're continuously arguing over what the definition of socialism and communism is and whether or not their policies are socialist or communist when they have a literal avowed communist representative now and all of their policies are designed to enable communism.

You can't make this stuff up.

Admiral Rob Bauer, former Chair of the NATO Military Committee on Europe’s energy dependency trap.

"We found out when Putin closed the valves in 2022, we thought we had a contract with Gazprom, but we actually had a contract with Mr. Putin.

Now, the same will happen — and this is a prediction — when we go to green energy.

90% of what is produced with regard to raw materials for renewable energy is produced by China, and 60% of that is owned by China.

In 10 years' time we are using only renewable energy, and Xi does what Putin did in 2022 — we don't have light, we will not drive, we will not work, we will not have heating, nothing.

We have to stop being so naive... Prepare for war, then the chance of not having a war is going up."

Former NATO Chair Admiral Rob Bauer just said the quiet part out loud about "green energy," which is that it's a Chicom trap, which anybody with a brain already knew.

"We found out when Putin closed the valves in 2022, we thought we had a contract with Gazprom, but we actually had a contract with Mr. Putin. Now, the same will happen — and this is a prediction — when we go to green energy. 90% of what is produced with regard to raw materials for renewable energy is produced by China, and 60% of that is owned by China.

We have to stop being so naive...

Prepare for war, then the chance of not having a war is going up."

Ask yourself how this isn't true and ask yourself who's pushing the hardest to force everyone to buy Chinese short cycle junk to replace our current energy infrastructure with and why? To the point of legislating it.
