  1. nah, he's just playing a stupid maga game - typing nonsense and pretending he has a point.
  2. you posted grossly misleading tax figure. simple as that. assume an individual aerages 40k per year over 30 years or 1.2 mil lifetime earnings. if half of that is spent on untaxed housing or education or medical care combined, that leaves 600k at 8% =0.08 48k in sales tax. the number you posted is 10x that. you're smarter than this. was gonna say you're better than this but decided against it.
  3. so a family would need to buy and pay 8% tax on roughly 200 minivans to accumulate your posted lifetime tax burden of $525k. keep digging....
  4. the median income pays no where near the lifetime tax amount you posted. it's purposefully misleading like so many maga narrative`. the majority of tax revenue is provided by the top 10% from my link above For example, the top 20 percent of Americans earn 52 percent of the total U.S. income, but pay 87 percent of total income tax [source: Saunders]
  5. better prices online. more selection. easy returns.
  6. yes, but in the US, the largest source of government revenue and to the top 47%, the largest tax burden. Once again, illustrating to class struggle that trump is parlaying into power.
  7. old article but still true . well presented imo https://money.howstuffworks.com/only-53-percent-pay-income-tax.htm
  8. average income is a bs metric. the wealthy are very heavily overrepresented. Median income would be much more meaningful. this is virtually meaningless. A very large percentage pay no federal tax at all
  9. he's dumb. in other news, poor people are buying less junk food. this is a mixed report: maga's will save some money and potentially lose some blubber. but realistically they won't. spam, bologna and vienna sausage sales will surely skyrocket. https://www.wsj.com/business/hospitality/mcdonalds-mcd-q1-earnings-report-2025-76b4d394-9b782952
  10. even more frumpy winning for the working man and manufacturing.. i wouldn't mind as the majority of those affected are maga's but much of the economy is based on consumption. there's nothin t take its place https://finance.yahoo.com/news/manufacturing-activity-hits-5-month-low-as-trump-tariffs-leave-businesses-in-state-of-near-paralysis-152727991.html
  11. I guess MAGA's don't believe their own eyes in the grocery store. The mobster economy: trumps concern for the average Joe is so amazing: https://thehill.com/opinion/campaign/5275227-egg-price-inflation-cal-maine/
  12. so much winning!!! especially for the "working man". https://www.cnbc.com/2025/05/01/weekly-jobless-claims-surge-to-241000.html
  13. profit. wtf dude are you a communist? Want someone else to pay your debts?
  14. ya know, I vacillate between you being subhuman to you being prescient. definitely subhuman.
  15. i don't really need new shoes but almost all are made in China. gonna order some. we're spoiled. doing without doesn't fly. who is trump to decide we should go without or make do?
  16. you're a prince. mental illness is hilarious.
  17. he's been l lying liars lie. he's been going nonstop since this interview. Actually he never stops. His non answer to the knuckle MS-13 photoshop is typical: attack the reporter and deflect. Save yourself time and read this then you won't need to watch. https://thehill.com/homenews/administration/5274198-trump-abc-terry-moran-interview/
  18. trump provides them this. it's much easier than independent thought. less ambiguous. it makes them feel warm and safe when the truth is the opposite. extraordinary He was speaking metaphorically. you've used it as a bludgeon repeatedly. It's in remission. Have gotten excellent care. Thanks for your concern.
  19. B man likes nazis. MAGAs = nazis. authoritarianism is good.
  20. at least Canada's gdp isn't shrinking... https://www.cnbc.com/2025/04/30/gdp-q1-2025-.html
  21. Epenesa would seem to be the 5th wheel. Rarely makes big plays. I don't know if his contract helps his cause but he seems expendable,
  22. proving that there is a moronic subset of the Canadian population too. Fortunately for Canada, it's a small percentage as today's election showed us. We here are not so lucky but some dummies are getting an economics edumacation as we speak.
  23. trump called Bezos. Freaked out. He's already lost nearly as many billion as Elon. He's got to keep playing this shitey hand he's been betting on. It's ok. He can afford it. But can you and Joe Shmoe. I'd think listing the price increase due to tariffs is a great idea. Maybe more of a Hermes or Burberry thing than Amazon The lady in Michigan is as fictional as her statements. No one's gas nor groceries doubled under Biden. https://www.cnn.com/2025/04/29/business/white-house-calls-report-that-amazon-is-adding-a-tariff-charge-a-hostile-action/index.html
  24. it wouldn't change a thing. strongly held beliefs are just that. do you have any, other than that orange man is your savior?
  25. c'mon B man. What constitutes a loser? Want me to start?
