@Mott-The-Hoople saidNO I don't want dems to win forever. That is the END of democracy, a ONE party rule. That is the antithesis of democracy. Of course YOU would be dancing in the streets for a forever repub win. FK democracy in that case.
do you not want dems to win forever?
@AverageJoe1 saidANY one party system is NOT democracy, you forget about accountability and such.
Hey sonhouse, to quote someone, do you not want Democrats to win forever? To get everyone's stuff?? To make life exactly the same for the millions of minions, to be overlorded by authoritarian Marx-like trillinaires, maybe 100 of them?? I think that is what you are saying. Say it straight out, you silly goose. Wordplay does not gel well with conservatives.
A two party system tends to correct for one party totally taking over.
They would keep each other in check.
Dems want to spend lots of money but repubs don't want to spend ANYING on ANYONE so they will fight to keep spending within limits but if Repubs alone rule, they will reduce government to near nothing so they can sit on their asses swigging coffee and not doing a fiking THING about actual policy except that policy that makes SURE billionaires get a GREAT tax deal THAT is the sum result of repub policy and a strong dem party would keep things in balance, making compromises neither party likes but can live with. THAT is democracy.
@AverageJoe1 saidYou’re not very good at math are you?
Wait now I get it.
Let's say I make $30,000 at my job, and my savings account is $40k, earning me $2400 (6😵 a year, on which I pay about $300 in income tax.
So, you are saying that my savings of $40k and my $32,400 , make me rich with $72,400 in income/
$72,400 makes me rich?
Is that you, Suzianne?
A savings account is not income. In order to make more than 30k from a savings account at 6% you would need $500,000 in the bank.
Nobody makes $30,000 per year in any serious job and nobody who makes $30k is going to save up $500,000. Your example is ridiculously unrealistic.

"""" AVJOE SAID THIS ABOVE::
"Let's say I make $30,000 at my job, and my savings account is $40k, earning me $2400 (6😵 a year, on which I pay about $300 in income tax.

The $30k is income, take home pay from a job. OK, lets say it is $68K, the national average. Stay witih me here. It is Income.
I also have $40k in a bank which sends me a check for $2400 annually. So, I have $32,400 in income for one year. Whew. I cant believe I am doing this.
OK, stay with me, little feller, you may be graded. I've graded big-tiime papers. $68,000 PLUS $2400 is $70,400. He also has a nest egg of $40k (see above.)
So he has a net worth of $40k, plus the $70,400. That is not rich. Or you may explain to us how that is rich, taking into account the average cost of living.....that pesky factor.
In closing..........If you perchance to say that it IS rich, to needle ole AvJoe, then I will say that there are then a LOT oF RICH PEOPLE in the this country, and wonder what in the hell you dependent weenies keep crowing about in the category of other peoples' stuff
Our readers wondeer what in hell you mention $500,000 for. I don't want to know, tell them.

@sonhouse saidYeah, nice post , your first 3 sentences, They show your inner self can think. But your daily missives never lead us to that.

The rest of your post is conjecture, zzzzzzz, take it up with your new friend Cosmo, wants a Hitler. We will see who wins. I like your chances, I’m giving odds. Where the hell did he come from.
Something I’d like to know….do these people ever work. Please ask him how they progress, get rich, such as that. Thanks.
@AverageJoe1 saidYou are seriously losing it. What makes you think I would LOVE a permanent DEMOCRAT party in power? They would probably run the US into bankrupcy.

One party in power, either one of them or even independent in power forever, no good can come from it.
@Mott-The-Hoople saidWhat the FK does deficits have to do with anything? You should rethink your meds.
what was that you said about the budget deficit?
@AverageJoe1 saidOh you mean repubs WANT to spend money. Sure, 170 BILLION for ICE. 200 MILLION for a WH ballroom.

One BILLION dollars to convert the UAE boondoggle 747 'gift'.
And to GET that one billion they cut the funding for rebuilding the infrastructure of failing missile silo's. GREAT FRIGGING MOVE ASSSHOLES.
Then DOGE announces savings of EIGHTEEN BILLION. next day, OOPS, sorry, off by only a factor of a thousand. really 18 MILLION saved.
A government presently run by incompetent idiots appointed by Trump and those folks with one bullet on their CV, 100% loyalty to Trump. Trump goes, SHOOT THAT CURSED DEMOCRAT. they go, SIR, how many times my lord.
@sonhouse saidEveryone is entitled to emergency medical help, for example people injured in car crashes or earthquakes, regardless of citizenship or residency status. It's the law. It's also basic human decency.
Oh, and how many illegals did you personally find getting medical help?
However, it is a lie, perpetrated by Trump, Johnson, and Vance, that Democrats intend to extend ACA and Medicaid benefits to people not legally entitled to be in the U.S.
quote:
Immigrants in the U.S. illegally are not eligible for insurance bought on the Affordable Care Act exchange or for Medicaid. To qualify for the former, an enrollee must live in the U.S., be a U.S. citizen or have another lawful status and not be incarcerated. A Medicaid enrollee must meet certain financial requirements, be a resident of the state in which Medicaid is being received and be a U.S. citizen or have a qualifying lawful status.

@sonhouse saidTwo issues here. Cosmo person says there should be only one party running the country. I know you don't, but since you are both of the same bent in debating, I thought you could take him apart in an even skirmish. We'll watch.
You are seriously losing it. What makes you think I would LOVE a permanent DEMOCRAT party in power? They would probably run the US into bankrupcy.
One party in power, either one of them or even independent in power forever, no good can come from it.
The other comment, issue, is that you said above "Bottom line is you want Repubs to win forever!' Mott responded, as did I, that YOU want Dems to live forever. It was an example of the random comments that ruin your posts. They just ruin them. Ruin them, right up with he is a felon and he is orange.
@sonhouse said"""Plans for the ballroom were announced by the White House on July 31, 2025. The construction of the ballroom is estimated to be $200 million, with the cost met by President Donald Trump and several anonymous private donors.

Trump paying for it, little feller. Another example of your random comments which cause folks to skip rest of your posts. I am trying to be helpful, as I skip the rest of this post.
Please research your posts.
@AverageJoe1 saidOk, so wipe off 200 mil. The fact remains DOGE tried to pass off 18 million in savings, pumping it up to 18 BILLION.

And there still is the boondoggle of the 'free' plane. ONE BILLION to make it into another AF1.
There are problems with that. First the money came from killing the program redoing the infrastructure of our missile silos.
I guess you totally approve of that since who needs nukes anyway.
@sonhouse saidBut wait....wait.....you said government is paying for Ballroom. I explained to you that it is not, that Donald Trump is personally, with donors, paying for it. This post, your post, the one I am responding to right now (you never respond to posts which defeat you, so consider this a lesson in posting) proves you totally wrong, so you should say right now,"" I apologize to the forum for spreading what Tumrp calls FALSE NEWS!!!!!
