but poor white people don’t have that excuse
LOL.
My grandparents grew up dirt poor, which was the situation for generations. I'm the first person on both sides of my family to go to college. My dad broke the poverty cycle in our family by running a successful business he built from the ground up.
Words cannot describe how much I detest people like you with this mindset.
But you are right....members of my family didn't make excuses. They worked 60-80 hours a week in fields until they found better work, then built themselves up. They didn't sit around crying and pointing fingers until someone wrote them checks. They also raised their own kids and sacrificed, yet those are the types of people you and your ilk want dead.

You misunderstand my point. You said you're "not a Democrat", but you vote for them as the lesser of two evils (my words). So, I must assume you are a Marxist, much closer to Bernie, AOC and Warren than, say, Senators Fetterman, Murphy and (Kentucky Governor) Beshear.

Taqiyya, in a nutshell, is the practice of lying or concealing one’s true beliefs to advance the cause of Islam. It gives permission to bend the truth, hide one’s real identity, and mask true intentions or objectives — all to protect Islam’s image and promote its expansion.
At least 2 Muslims post here to try to ramp up the anti Israel movement.

This poster is a trained liar. You are just feeding them attention, which is what they crave.
This poster would line you and your family up against the wall tomorrow if they could. Look at the language it is using to describe its enemy. They hate you with every fiber of their being and are doing exactly what the OP states.
Thank them for letting you know who and what they are and avoid these people like the plague. They are a literal death sentence for your and your family's happiness if you interact with them in real life. This MFer would kill you tomorrow and dance on your grave.

Where in the Bible or Constitution does it say Christians should tithe to the state? Want me to give you a hint?
Christians only tithe to the Church. The Church helps people, not the state.

I know - note my Stalin and Mao references.
My issue is - I'm a rabid Americanist. I want good things for all Americans. The formula is so simple, it defies logic as to why it isn't followed.
1. Finish school
2. Don't have children out of wedlock/if you get married, stay married
3. Work at any kind of job
4. Refrain from engaging in criminal activity
Do just those 4 things and there is about a 3 or 4 percent chance you will be below the poverty line.
Marxism doesn't help with any of that. Marxism says we all deserve the "same" regardless of what we contribute. You get a hell of a lot of nothing (at best) with that model.

Who do you want to pay your bills instead of you ? That’s what yard implying when you want all the things from the government.

This guy admits the govt can’t pass an audit, then wants us to pay our fair share!
You can not argue with this kind of stupid! He has no clue what the right hates.
It’s the govt you idiot! And giving them more of my money to waste isn’t going to help any of the people you claim to think need it!

Can you do us a favor and hold your breath and walk across 8sm traffic while you wait?
We don’t want some gov bill that is said to be a magic wand to make our lives better.
We want the gov to stay In their Lane.
We want our representatives to be our voices. We are not their subjects and they are not leaders,
We want more naturalized citizens that want to be here and understand and appreciate the values of this nation.
We want our own citizens to respect their fellow man
We want those that have wronged or committed criminal acts to stand trial and face the punishment if they are convicted.
We also support appeals should those convictions be dealt on faulty evidence or kangaroo courts.
We want our healthcare to be privatized but not crony capitalism like it is now where it’s one giant racketeering/kickback scam.
We want to be energy independent. We want the freedom to produce the energy and oil we need to keep us afloat and costs down.
Show me how one bill does that without kicking back gender programs to ______insert said Dem money laundering account____

And the fly into America to get services as a 1 to 1-1/2 year waiting list for heart surgery or cancer treatments is a bit to long. What good is free healthcare if you are unable to use it. Your facts are twisted. There is an old saying that defines what you believe- if you aren’t a Democrat when you are in your teens and 20’s you have no heart but if you still are a Democrat in your 30’s you have no brain.

Yep. Anyone that vaguely knows anything about Islam, knows this is a fact.

Nothing is ever free you simpleton.
Every single one also is In debt To the U.S.
Most “free healthcare” nations (especially in Europe and East Asia) spend far less on their militaries because the U.S. guarantees their defense through alliances like NATO and bilateral security agreements.
• The U.S. spends around 3.4% of GDP on defense.
• Germany: ~1.5%, Canada: ~1.3%, Japan: ~1.0%, France: ~1.9% (2024 NATO data).
• The U.S. alone provides ~70% of NATO’s total defense spending.
That means U.S. taxpayers fund the nuclear deterrent, carrier groups, intelligence, and rapid-response forces that protect Europe, Japan, and South Korea, allowing those nations to spend those billions domestically — including on healthcare.
Example:
If Germany matched U.S. defense spending (as % of GDP), it would spend over $100 billion more annually — roughly what it currently spends on its entire public health insurance system.
So yes, they can “afford” universal healthcare partly because they don’t pay the full price of national defense. We do.
U.S.-Funded Research & Drug Innovation
The U.S. also drives global medical progress — and pays for the R&D that others get cheap.
• The U.S. government (NIH) invests $45–50 billion annually in medical research — more than any other country combined.
• U.S. pharmaceutical and biotech firms dominate innovation — developing roughly half of all new drugs globally.
• Countries with socialized healthcare then negotiate lower prices or import generics after the U.S. market pays off the initial R&D costs
The U.S. pays for the expensive part of innovation — discovery and clinical trials — while socialized systems wait and buy the results at a discount
That’s why Europe can maintain lower healthcare costs without matching our private sector spending or R&D investments.

Those countries also have free/subsidized schooling to create more doctors and nurses breh. Free healthcare would cost 450 billion per year, less than 10% of the GDP.
Because their success depends on the U.S. doing what they can’t — defending them, innovating for them, and paying for the systems that allow them to redirect money inward. They have socialized healthcare because we’ve socialized their security. Without the U.S. taxpayer, those models would break.
So instead of asking why we don’t have what they do — maybe we should ask why they aren’t paying their fair share for the global defense and innovation that make it possible.

This nation was stolen from brown people
That’s an important historical discussion, but it doesn’t change how modern budgets work. We’re talking about how the current U.S. taxpayer funds other nations’ security and innovation — not the 18th century.
Whether or not you agree with America’s history, the fact today is that U.S. taxpayers fund over 70% of NATO defense, $50 B in medical research, and $12 B in global health aid — that’s what allows other countries to maintain ‘free healthcare.’ The past doesn’t change the present math.
