But… why?
Voter fraud isn’t an issue that needs solving. Yes, we could (should) make an ID easier to get, but not for this. Conservatives would just move the goalposts again and add more roadblocks for the voters they don’t like.
If you give a fascist a cookie…
It’s really hard to see that as an equal issue when one of those sides is literally in charge of creating & enforcing the law.
People proclaiming stupidities is a problem that is magnitudes smaller than an administration with the ability and will to perform stupidities
Social Security is an investment in the health of our society, it’s not a financial instrument. You can’t pool risk and get predictable returns without cutting corners & dropping high-risk members (hello health insurance industry).
It’s not a Ponzi Scheme by definition.

Yes, it’s all culture war slop. “Elon Musk is the best!”
I’d much rather thousands of dollars of my taxes go overseas to provide art & culture, then billions going overseas as bombs dropped on Palestinian children. But that’s just me. I’ll always prioritize culture over murder.
They’re slashing USAID and feeding us the BS that these tax dollars are “better spent on Americans”, but they won’t be spent on the working class. Ever. They’ll go to defense contractors or Trump’s buddies. I watched the video, and I want my 2 minutes back.
Exactly! Why would we stoop to helping anyone anywhere with anything when that money could be safely parked in an oligarch’s account!?!? (overseas, out of sight, of course)
But there are way, way more comments, posts, and articles about how he’s reneged on his promises & will continue to hurt people for the sake of hurting people… In the face of authoritarianism, you’re worried about decorum?
The tone he had on Monday’s Daily Show was, “let’s not start throwing around the word fascism yet”. He apparently still has faith in the courts? https://archive.org/details/COM_20250128_070000_The_Daily_Show
