But you are paying taxes and not getting those things.
I don’t even know how student loan forgiveness would even work, won’t other generations also have student debt? What about people who already paid for their schooling? Will they get a rebate? Will my kids get their student loans paid for too?
It’s such a ridiculous policy, it makes no sense whatsoever.
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.
I’m getting tired of Musk, left wing news stories and left wing memes myself
I’ll join these communities simply because lemmy seems so one dimensional looking through my feed.
If there is non-political content here, I’d appreciate it being brought more to the front, at least for my own feed.
I’m hoping for more diverse topics than what seems to hit all day after day. To the point where I’m usually not even logging in as often as I could be.
Well that’s the difference, most people will pirate when it’s more convenient to do so. And as long as prices are so exorbitant.
I pirate hockey games, because watching hockey is ridiculously inconvenient and/or expensive.
I do not pirate music anymore, or video games because Apple Music is more convenient and not very expensive and steam has all the games I’d ever want to play, and has enough sales that it’s not that expensive either.
I don’t pirate movies and tv shows because Netflix and Disney really cover anything I want to watch and anything else I share a crave subscription, like for Game of Thrones
I don’t think anyone cares that she’s fat, but it sounds like she lied about her weight in a situation where it was important to tell the truth.
Your argument is like saying it’s insensitive to people with addiction issues if a cop pulls over an alcoholic and asks if he’s had anything to drink and he says ‘nope’
Oh I’m sorry, it’s not the paragon of reporting you usually read, like ‘salon’ or some fucking garbage.
How about we engage in the point and not the media? That’s the only way you people know how to defend a point. “Oh, salon didn’t write it, it just not be true!”
some of the informants the government used appeared to play a far greater role in the plot than had been previously reported. In fact, the informants had a hand in nearly every aspect of the twisted machination, including its inception.
Can you guys not read, or follow embedded links to sources of information?
This federalist piece outlines how the FBI operates exactly this way, too:
They may be idiots, but I don’t think this is a good idea
