it is hilarious that putins and Xes propaganda arms cannot post about how much their patrons are helping their poor and middle classes
Biden and his team have powered out of the starting blocks and continue to achieve - marvelous
Taxing the rich is not going to crash anything you painfully stupid idiot. It didn't in 50s,60s and 70s, and it won't now. As has been previously stated by people in this thread who are clearly better educated and informed than you are. Because clearly you do not know two fucks about what you are talking about.
It is pathetic to be able to forecast his posts in advance because you know exactly where he gets his talking points from. He is so utterly predictable that he is basically just a wind up doll.
I have a story that relates to this, and I think I will share it. It won't get through slicks dense scull but some others may have interest...
I have a friend that I have known since high school. We went to the same University, and he graduated with a degree in economics. He promptly moved to San Francisco and got a job in finance. From there he went on to Wall Street and ultimately landed a job on one of the largest hedge funds in the country. He built a small fortune for himself and made the fund a lot of money. But as time went on he became more and more obsessed with far right politics and wound up a Fox News koolaid drinker.
After eight years of the Bush presidency the economy was in ruins, and we were in a major depression. Then Obama was elected. At that time my buddy was sure that Obama's policies were going to tank the economy even more, so he leveraged heavily on that theory. Well as most of us know Obama's policies helped to turn around the economy and triggered the largest period of economic growth in American history. During those years my buddy who became consumed with political ideology continued to hedge his bets that a crash was coming. It never did, and he wound up losing everything including his job and reputation.
He returned to Seattle and no longer works in finance got a shitty sales job and drives a fucking Uber part-time at night. He is still a right wing nut job even though he fully admits it was bogus propaganda and political ideology that cost him everything.

Why would I share that here when there are scumbags like you who try to dox people?
Firstly I am in possession of generational wealth assets (real estate in Seattle) thanks to my grandfather secondly I work in the tech sector and have benefited from stock options and grants from several previous employers. I have rolled several 401k plans from mentioned companies who happen to generously match into one IRA, I am invested in crypto and the stock market using my own capital and that is just for starters.
I will be fine, and I never let political dogma influence the way I invest my money like you do. Your comments here are just further proof that you have not idea what you are talking about.

See if I can ruffle some feathers
Most viewers approve of Biden's speech
Tonight, I come to talk about crisis — and opportunity. About rebuilding our nation — and revitalizing our democracy. And winning the future for America.
As I stand here tonight — just one day shy of the 100th day of my administration. 100 days since I took the oath of office, lifted my hand off our family Bible, and inherited a nation in crisis.
The worst pandemic in a century. The worst economic crisis since the Great Depression. The worst attack on our democracy since the Civil War.
Now, after just 100 days, I can report to the nation: America is on the move again. Turning peril into possibility. Crisis into opportunity. Setback into strength.

Keep your friends close and your enemies closer.
No repubs applauded when Biden stated that 55 large companies pay zero tax and that it was time that they did. Taxing the rich to pay their fair share makes absolute sense. The Republican Party is totally owned now by corporate America and the wanna-be oligarchs with Americans somehow drinking that kool-aid. Going to to be an uphill battle for Biden but he is right when he says it is a war between democracy and an autocracy. Good speech last night with solid plans and such a relief from the past four years of incompetence and incoherency.
You Make Your Own Luck
I’m doing pretty well and should retire by 50 with enough to live on 4% forever and pass the remainder to my daughter (unless your political party takes a grab at it) so I do in fact know what I’m talking about, and I do in fact have concerns that your party will stimey investments and balloon the deficit to the point that the bubble will burst. The money printer will only run for so long before it pops. At this point is not a matter of IF the bubble pops but WHEN it pops.
And I meant HOW do you invest, not the vehicles in which you place funds. If you’re already almost 50 and don’t have a 401k (because IRA rollover) then you don’t have enough tax advantaged accounts to put money in and therefore don’t invest much yearly.
If you’re using a brokerage account to invest your “own capital” then I’d be curious to know what brokerage and your methodology. Stocks. Bonds. ETF’s & Index’s. Expense ratios.

Proceeds to demonstrate that he does not, in fact, know what he's talking about.
It's a demonstrable fact, in fact, that the economy and markets do better under the Dems but no 'ole Slickarooney here is still trotting out the same hackneyed, partisan, and disproven tropes like a good little programmed puppet. Probably still thinks 'trickle down' is a good thing.

Yes, we can all agree with that sentiment.
I would have liked to have heard a few more details in terms of foreign policy. His continuing commitment to maintaining an active American presence in the Asia Pacific and particularly in the area of the South China Sea was refreshing. Go Joe Go
A true diplomat is a person who can tell you to go to hell in such a manner that you will be asking for directions.
Biden ripped for calling Capitol riots ‘worst attack on our democracy since the Civil War’
President Biden is being ripped for calling the Jan. 6 storming of the Capitol the “worst attack on our democracy since the Civil War.”
“January 6 was worse than 9/11? Or Pearl Harbor?” prominent journalist Glenn Greenwald asked of the president’s claim to Congress Wednesday night used as apparent proof that he was leading the US out of crisis.
“Or the Oklahoma City bombing? Or the dismantling of civil liberties in the name of the Cold War and War on Terror?
“Or the mass surveillance program secretly and illegally implemented by NSA aimed at US citizens?” continued Greenwald, referring to the Edward Snowden expose of government documents he first reported.
“How about the War on Drugs, mass incarceration and Jim Crow? Were those worse ‘attacks on democracy’ than the 3-hour Capitol riot on Jan. 6? The assassination of JFK? The interference in domestic politics by the CIA? The list of worse attacks than Jan. 6 is endless,” he wrote.

Biden slammed for calling Capitol riot 'worst attack on our democracy since the Civil War' in address to Congress
President Joe Biden was slammed by conservatives Wednesday for referring to the Jan. 6 Capitol Hill riot as “the worst attack on our democracy since the Civil War" in his address to Congress.
The comment was part of an excerpt released by the White House from Biden’s speech to a joint session of Congress on Wednesday night.
"100 days since I took the oath of office, lifted my hand off our family Bible, and inherited a nation in crisis,” Biden will say in the speech. “The worst pandemic in a century. The worst economic crisis since the Great Depression. The worst attack on our democracy since the Civil War.”
The comment generated immediate pushback from many social media users, who pointed out a variety of national tragedies that have taken place since the Civil War, including the 9/11 terrorist attacks.
“Biden asserts riot was a worse attack than various bombings and deadly attacks on the Capitol, deadly Summer of Rage with its attacks on the WH and federal court buildings, four presidential assassinations, another five assassination attempts, Pearl Harbor, and 9/11,” Federalist senior editor Mollie Hemingway tweeted. “OK.”
"Left wing terrorists literally detonated a bomb in the US capitol in 1983 and one of them was later granted clemency by Bill Clinton," journalist Jon Levine tweeted.
Professor Andy Grewal pointed out that four U.S. presidents have been murdered since the end of the Civil War.
Others wondered aloud why the devastating attack on Pearl Harbor carried out by Japan was overlooked.
“I was at SEAL training in Coronado when Al Qaeda took down the Twin Towers on 9/11Over 3,000 Americans died that day,” Republican Senate candidate Eric Greitens tweeted. “Thousands more died in the Global War on Terror that followed. Joe Biden forgets their sacrifice.”

^ Sorry to inform you that not one of your examples was a threat to democracy in the US. January 6, 2021 was an attempt to overthrow a duly elected government with an autocrat. You lost, get over it.

“Ripped” by Glenn Greenwald, Dinesh D’Souza, Steve Cortes, and some hack from the Washington Examiner.
Surprised you don’t have a quote from Marjorie Taylor Greene.
Yes, I immediately realized that that comment was going to be problematic.
Opening up old wounds anybody?
Besides the riots were really quite overblown.
We really do still a review of what actually happened on that day.
I say let it go, move on.
Considering the countless moronic comments you made over the years, that may be the most idiotic thing you’ve ever posted.Originally Posted by Russ Simpleton
