This forum is a holdover from the old forums, my guess is very few at TBD actually frequent ppp because the general feeling is "it's a cesspool". It is a cesspool. I've been here for over 20 years and trust me it always has been, albeit to varying degrees. I understand where you're coming from about the rhetoric from everywhere. Trust me I do. Check out the Righteous Mind by Haidt. I was a big proponent of what he had to say about a decade ago. Really had a great thesis to understand the right/left mind and great suggestions at finding common ground. It's too late for any of that now. I think you fail to understand where we are, as we've LOOOONNNNGGG since passed the point of no return in this country in terms of civility. Pick a side or one will be chosen for you. Well not you specifically because you don't live here, but that's where we are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Something tells me the girl on the left probably won't want to see this video in 15 years. If you're voting blue because you're worried about your makeup, piercings, and tattoos being taken away from you try voting red and see how many more of those things you can buy with more money in your pocket. No one is coming for your eye shadow kiddo. What they really should have said was I am voting blue because if not I'll be ostracized from my group of friends who preach freedom of expression eventhough we all dress alike, listen to the same music, read the exact same books, watch the exact same movies and vote for the same people.

Perfect. Then we can focus on buying American made products. You can tell me all day about what you think it will cost me. Problem is I've already lived during both economies. I made 20k a year less under Trump than I do under Biden and have far less money now than I did then. Gas is up. Food is up. Water is up. Taxes are up. Housing is up. Clothes are up. Projections don't mean a damn thing to me. Show me the baby. Edited August 17 by thenorthremembers 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We do not have the capacity to produce every good available on the global market and all of the components necessary in addition to there being a labor shortage. But please, campaign on a 10% tax on every American. That really works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amazing when it's Trump we can't produce products but the best thing your party has done in years is the semiconductor plan. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The point is to produce everything you can get here, here. Putting taxes or embargos on things like Chinese steel puts the emphasis on getting unions to use American made materials. It may hurt in the short term but in the long term it's incredibly beneficial for our country. We have to stop relying on other countries and increasing the national debt by trillions of dollars. If you fail to see that the reliance on other countries has made our country weaker than I can't help you. Started with Clinton and NAFTA. And continues with policies hard on America and weak on other countries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does make our country less self-sufficient and subject to supply disruptions but playing the game with the world's reserve currency we exchange real physical goods for pieces of paper converted into Treasury bonds that fund the US government's deficit that allows this money printing game to play out. Then print out more money to pay them off. Wouldn't it be great to have a printing press in your own basement and creat money out of nothing? Or be a bank? Be at the top of the global finance system? Produce nothing and live better than people that do real work. That's the bankers and the US governments life. The system's been a great benefit but it will end at some point and the costs will be extreme 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
