    Wild guess, that 60k number includes debt.

    Thank you to all the conservatives making a great case for welfare. Poor people don’t have it that bad in America because welfare lifts them out of poverty. Great point. Let’s make sure all poor people have access to it.

    Welfare needs to be more efficient

    Kind of sucks now
    In theory I’d be on board with that. My concern is that you can hide behind “more efficient” when you really just want cuts.
    Having been in touch with the system more recently than anyone here my motives are pure

    We could pay people more and probably get cuts too

    But we need to get more cash in the hands of people that need it
    What about replacing welfare programs with universal basic income?
    How about you just give all your Shit? As a socialist just how much of your Shit have you given away?

    How about universal earn your own Shit?

    So let’s raise the death tax rate to 100% and use that money for a federal jobs program.

    Because what you've worked for and earned over your entire life doesn't really belong to you, it belongs to the state and they just loan it to you during your lifetime.

    Because people won’t offshore all their money and assets. You know, because of the good of the collective.

    So poor people need to earn their own shit but if you were born to rich parents you’re free to just inherit money that isn’t yours. In the thread about how the system isn’t rigged. El oh el.

    Parents work hard to leave something to their kids. Not me, but I have heard it happens

    And I’m fine with that statement alone. But “earn your own shit, unless you happened to be born rich and the system isn’t rigged” doesn’t add up.

    The system isn't rigged to make poor, people poorer. Is there something genetic in liberals that makes them into dishonest Kunts?
