They don’t understand how paying for things works.
They also don’t understand how incompetent the government actually is.
They think that if you fund the government more, they won’t have any worry again. Just give the government more money and all your problems will be solved.
They also think ‘someone else’ will fund the government, and not them. They’re living in a fantasy land
What they don’t understand is that this ends with everyone being broke and the government still being absolutely incompetent meaning everyone is now even worse off than they were before.
The money needs to stay in the peoples pockets and the governments reach into your life needs to stay as minimal as possible. Trust the people, not the government.
Fund the people, not the government.
Give us our money back and leave us alone
The government is incompetent. Vote for me and I'll prove it!
-every conservative ever elected
You’ve had 12 years of Democrat leadership with 4 years of Republican squished in there. Are things better now?
Of course not.
Things seemed pretty good with republicans in office to everyone. Now that the democrats are backed, everything’s quickly gone to shit again
Things absolutely did not seem pretty good with republicans in charge
Remember when they got together and rewrote the tax code to help corporations? Remember when they pulled us out of the green new deal? Remember when buddied up to North Korea and Saudia Arabia? Remember when they told us to drink bleach and shove a light up our ass to stop the spread of covid? Remember when they handed out government loans to companies with zero regulation then forgave them? Remember when they put another sexual predator on the Supreme Court? Remember when one broke into the house of the minority leader and attacked her husband with a hammer? Remember when they marched with torches on Charlotte? Remember when they attacked the capital?
The list goes on.
