What's your disability?  Don't worry ma'am.  This is the good 'ol USA.  Claim you're an illegal.  Bam!  Easy street.  

Mental.

I know.  You're a breath of fresh air.  I agree.  They are totally mental!  What a mess.

Today at school I had some ask me every period who I voted for and I told them " the person who gives the most freedom to the most people" and every period most kids said that meant Trump. Each period kids then tried to get me to confess directly and I told them I hated both of them but went with the person who I thought was most up for the job. Lastly I had a set of girls ask me why in Brazil they know the answers that night but we don't, I explain a lot of states are run by incompetent people. They understood but thought it was odd that Americans would accept going backwards since 1930s.

Honestly question: what freedoms is Trump going to give back that we don’t have right this second?

Ah, this provides some insight into your state of mind.  I'm sorry to hear you're going through all that, and I would assume the stress must be overwhelming at times.  It seems at times the system is tilted away from those in need in favor of those who simply want.  Good luck with the disability claim. 

Thanks. I never liked the govt before and I like them less now. It doesn’t matter what side it is. They are there to take from us. I’ve paid more taxes. Let’s put it this way, if I could have invested all that tax money I wouldn’t need to worry about disability. Everyone fights about stuff, wait till you need something, something you have earned over 40 years of hard work. And I’m not near retirement age, that’s how young I was when I started working, never been laid off, never been fired. They got their hand out, they want your vote and then it’s FU.

My back. 5 crushed disks, arthritis like an 80 year old man, spinal stenosis in a few spots. No room for my spinal chord. Any swelling presses on nerves and  I can’t walk. My back is so far gone it’s beyond surgery.

So, no answer Irv? 
 

Hit me with your best mom joke, you dolt. 

What's the difference between your mom and a washing machine?

You’re so odd. I can only imagine the average BMI in your household.

Quit fantasizing. 

 

The washing machine doesn't follow me around after I drop a load in it.

I just assume anyone so poorly educated that - as an adult - they use mom jokes likely falls into the “point and state” level of obese when you and your sloth walk around.

Age old story I'm afraid.  All I can say in that regard is I would understand a Harris vote there (or whomever might be on the other side from me) if she was truly standing for something that put money in your pocket.  Instead, the legislative agenda calls for massive amounts of money to go through the system, and at each point along the way a bit is siphoned, then special interests get their beaks wet and we have a social safety net the size of the American southwest. 

 

I will say these two things tho:

  • I think generally that tax rates are too high, that government is too big, and there is plenty of money flowing through the system.  That said, personally speaking, I would gladly forgo an additional 2, 3, 4% on top of what I pay now if it would make a dent in the system and the additional money could go to help people in need.  The challenge is I have zero confidence that can happen in my lifetime;
  • For all the bluster, smoke and mirrors of the Harris campaign, that one that irritates me most is the 'billionaire tax' and tax on unrealized earnings.  Looking at her star-studded lineup of endorsemeisters, not one has talked about just that--creating a pool of wealth to help the less fortunate through a tax aimed at the ultra-wealthy.  Well--that's not true, Mark Cuban stated she wasn't going to go through with it because it would kill folks like him.     

 

Best of luck to you.

 two years ago we had a federal government firing people for not taking an experimental drug, half the states had locked down their people in a capricious manner, and I was told by my liberal family members I was immoral for leading my normal life. If you don't think think libs want to take away freedoms then you were either in a coma for a couple years or are happy with loss of rights.

Who was in office when the lock downs started? Nice try at rewriting history.
