Fact: USSR taxed less than the US

lmao

the commies taxed less

look it up

Also communist China taxes less lmfao

The problem isn't communism/statism. The problem is the American government is run by thieves.

They are of the people, after all. Garbage in, garbage out.

I suppose if you end up in a gulag or a mass grave, in the long run you're taxed less.

You're seeking a perfect utopian society with little to no flaws...good luck with that.

We're far from perfect but light years closer to it than any communist nation...personally, I'd rather pay high taxes and not starve. Corruption in government is not something exclusive only to the US...it's industry standard worldwide...difference is, you have the freedom to complain about it openly..or would you rather pay less taxes and get sent to a re-education camp for expressing your thoughts?

No, I get it..everyone has their own issues with the US and rightfully so...I just have a love it or leave it, for better or worse view. I'm not expecting anyone to feel the same but just my personal preference.

Ding, ding, ding.

Not a fan of Communism, although late-stage Capitalism is looking less and less appealing as well, but the US is run by two parties that both hate the American people. No system can withstand that.

One of the reasons I tend to disagree with Wincel on Trump. Although more and more Trump looks like a do-nothing, when it comes to the swamp, the chance he might upend or do it harm is better than the 100% chance it's stronger than ever with a Biden or the vast majority of Republicans. I suspect a lot of the flack Trump gets in blue states, media coverage and with these criminal investigations is simply that he's not part of it. Assuming he's not. His first term did little to make me think he might actually stand against it, with all the Bolton-style appointments, but I give him slim odds, maybe the off chance in his second term he would go scorched Earth. Low odds, to be sure, but higher than 0%.

You need to bump your Disney thread, you about how Ant-Man 3?

Originally people believed it only cost 200 million to make, the true cost was 330 million.

I saw that. Something how they filmed it, to 'save' money not using a green screen but some static background. Then, they fuked it all up, because while green screens are easy to edit or tinker with, it's nigh-impossible with the method they used. Expensive and doesn't look good. Which perfectly sums up the movie itself.

330 million dollars on an Ant Man movie???

The truth always comes out with the actual budget on these movies.

Everyone calls the problems we are experiencing today as late stage capitalism when it is really early stage communism. Stop blaming the negative chit on capitalism when it is communism causing the problems.

I thought marriage of Corporations and Government was fascism? Which I guess we'd have to argue the problem(s) before we could define them.

As it stands, we are led by whores who sell themselves to the highest bidders only behind those who have blackmail material on them. So, after the various IAs and Israel, the MIC and then corporations come next in the line.

Progressive liberals argue we need more taxes.

They have lists of items they want funded. They tell you to "go after the rich" but because you won't, they expect you to understand them making you pay.

Prime example, green projects and school lunches for free.

The modern American democrat is basically the worst of the worst. The most destructive political creatures the world has known.
