Not growth, not prosperity. Why is it that the left wants to punish success? Why try to drive outcomes? Why do you not understand that we will all not have the same finish line, that life 'ain't fair'. Some will be better than others, that is the way life works. In the long run with limited government, we will prosper.
What is meant by the word Equity as it appears in the Democratic platforms? I truly do not know. I think it does not square with the free market and the growth agenda.
Any takers?
@averagejoe1 saidActually 74. Who told you 100? Was it anonymous grandma? I wouldn't trust her. Does that person know you can look it up? It is public knowledge.

Why is it that the left wants to punish success?
I think we could have a real discussion here. Unfortunately your definition of 'punish success' is not giving away hundreds of millions of tax dollars to billionaires.
@averagejoe1 saidYou don't understand what "equity" means in this context. It simply refers to increasing opportunity for the less fortunate. It doesn't mean dragging down the privileged.

@vivify saidI am told that libs are trying to establish a process whereby everyone finishes even at the end, for lack of a better way to put it. Do you agree with that, or do you agree that everyone strike out evenly with what life has given them as they make their way to their chosen goals? Can't have it both ways. Which way for you?

Edit: I think that your phrase 'dragging down the privileged' has nothing to do with this issue. How could that have anything to do do with this issue?
@averagejoe1 saidYou only listen to conservative sources, explaining your skewed, uniformed worldview.

Who told you this? Mott? MB?
Dude, it is YOUR issue. It's always your issue.
@averagejoe1 saidPeople "say" a lot of stuff.
Kamala Harris, actually. VP. She said a year ago, ‘at the end of the day, everyone will be in the same place”.
Apparently so do you.

@averagejoe1 saidThis is why I don't watch Fox.
So if I hear FOX TV report that the "US Braces for a Record-Breaking Migrant Surge", the report cannot be correct since FOX reported it? I just saw that 5 minutes ago. What should I do?
I don't like news flavored with lies.
Every week I hear about this "Migrant Surge" that never comes. You guys sure are gullible. How about you climb right down off your Fear Train?
When you hear this stuff, just laugh at your TV. Now laugh again. Now laugh louder. There now, don't you feel better?

Increasing the education budget is a shot in the arm for private enterprise giving them a bigger pool of smarter potential employees to trawl in at recruitment time.
You literally can only have it both ways.
@kevcvs57 saidPlease put that in plainer English, and start a thread on it. Start with the premise where there is equity at the end of the day. Like, how is that possible, even with a perfect education program.

Just don't get your logic on that one.
