Things that made you frown today (Political Version)

What is that grudge? I don't get it.

They're a partisan organization focused on selling guns and exerting political influence rather than an organization about gun education. That "fight them with the clenched fist of truth" video was insane and I think they wind up demonizing gun ownership by portraying 2A supporters as dangerous lunatics.

If the government started paying for college.. you don't think they tuition rates would increase?

They probably would try, but I think if the government was the primary source of tuition they would be in a better position to keep tuition in step with inflation. As it is, when I finished up my degree a few years ago with the GI Bill, I saw an increase of about $500 per semester. Even though things like the GI Bill are one of the reasons for skyrocketing tuition, without it I probably wouldn't have been able to attend.

Nobody that sits at a desk all day deserves to make more than "skilled labor"

someone sounds jealous, maybe you should learn a new trade that makes big $$$?

Keep in mind that during some of our country's best economic years the top marginal tax rate was 90%.

Why do people keep saying this? Our economy is miles ahead now compared to when the marginal tax rate was 90%.

What needs to be done is put an end to work visas, sanctuary cities and jail business owners that hire illegal aliens. Tech needs to train american high school graduates instead of expecting people to drop 10's of thousands of dollars on colleges.

Nobody that sits at a desk all day deserves to make more than "skilled labor" or what we once called tradesman.

We don't have enough people to fill jobs as it is and the birth rate is going down. Work visas and illegals are a benefit to all of us. We're also cutting taxes so why waste tax dollars focusing on arresting and deporting people who are here to do out shit work?

That's a relatively recent phenomenon, thanks in part to Trump's policies which have encouraged growth and discouraged illegal immigration.

I have no problem with work visas, but you're just spewing left wing bullshit in regards to illegal immigration. Instead of encouraging more illegal immigration which just brings in more unskilled labor why don't we try increasing the number of legal immigrants we allow in? Is it because we might get more immigrants from white countries?

It's not jealousy at all, it's the fact that most these desk dwellers are idiots.

It really depends on the industry. American steelworkers are happy because they get more opportunity to work, but the end guys who buy that steel are winding up having to pay more or wait longer.

Its ok to give Obama credit too. You act as if trump showed up and waved a magic wand to fix everything.

I'm glad you support increasing work visas. POTUS doesn't and he needs to hear from rightists that do. To,be fair, he loves work visas and foreign made products as long it saves him money. Theres a hige disconnect between his rhetoric and his actions. Itd be nice if his followers would make the point that he needs to walk the walk.

As for left wing talking points they are correct. Illegals are a benefit for our society. It'd be a struggle to get by without them. One also needs to consider NA's point that they are being employed by our corporations. If you want to lay blame do it with some objectivity.

I guess by that logic we thank Bush for ending the recession and getting the economy back on track. Thanks, Bush!
