I'm dying to hear what these evil plans are, since you seem to have your finger on the pulse of the nation



Clever sarcasm! Yeah I didn't make out to well with my predictions or wagers did I?



That's all in the past. I hold no resentments and hope my halfassed futurist prognostications are wrong this time.

I compressed your wall-of-text (without even the courtesy of line spaces between paragraphs) into a single line....




I could lose my SSI as well as my Medicaid because of you.


I'm sorry if your lot in life sucks. I have no idea how you got there. If you'd always worked hard and came upon unfortunate times beyond your control... I feel bad for you. If you are just a whiney b-tch (as your post leads me to believe).... I'm not sorry that your free ride is over.

Disclaimer: I don't know you.... so I can only respond to what you post.



So you can only narrow it down to her working hard and falling on hard times or her being whiny?

You do realize that countless people (many who for some reason voted for Trump) work very hard and are on Medicaid/SSI without falling on "unfortunate times"?

How about option C? The likely one where a person works super hard (in our non-living-wage economic climate) yet still has to have assistance? Red states use the most of that... are you saying that red states are inherently less hard-working?





So you can only narrow it down to her working hard and falling on hard times or her being whiny?


Yes. Absolutely. The only caveat would be if she is very young and needs a hand to get started in life (in which case I'm absolutely ready to lend a helping hand).

If someone is in their 40's or 50's and in ALL those years they haven't bothered to acquire any marketable skills... that's not on me... that's on them.




How about option C? The likely one where a person works super hard (in our non-living-wage economic climate) yet still has to have assistance?


"The likely one"...? I'm not sure what statistics that is based on.

"In our non-living-wage economic climate".... I ALMOST want to agree with you there. I really do. Mostly because I remember when the manufacturing jobs left and the people were told that "new high tech jobs" would replace them.... and then the IT jobs were either outsourced directly or IT workers were forced to train their H1B visa replacements.
The problem with this argument is that it has nothing to do with "idiot" Trump voters. Trump has rallied against this behavior. (We'll see if he follows through).

In conclusion... I stand behind my original statement.

ya know, on a side note, no matter your disposition on the outcome of the election, I have been watching several live feeds of protestors and while some are relatively peaceful, they have anarchists mixed among them who are absolutely destroying the town, the lives that they so vociferously claim to be wanting to defend against oppression.

It's truly effin sad to watch these kids who have no cognizance of what real war they could be bringing down upon themselves and the subsequent heartache that will follow when they realize they are ill-equipped both mentally and emotionally to engage the types of people they may be faced with.

I've had to do alot of things in my life to put a roof over my head and food on my table. Left high school in 1980 into a depressed economy with 18+ percent mortgage rates and a Liberal government hell bent on destroying the energy sector. I was an apprentice bricklayer working to get my ticket when the National Energy Policy came into affect and killed the oil industry. The trickle down was devastating for many. Industrial construction was dead - no more job. People walked from the ridiculous mortgages on their half the value bought homes for a dollar. Times were hard.
Government assistance for single able-bodied young males was practically unheard of. I've roofed in -20 C. and in plus 30 C. Cleaned up basements that had sewage to the rafters. Sold vacuums door to door ( for 2 yrs! ) and insurance for a few more. I could go on but it took about 8 yrs to get back into the construction industry where I feel most productive and satisfied with myself. Point is what will you do to make it through your crisis? Every thing that I did taught something, I made sure of that. Life is hard so adapt / overcome and be stronger for it.
Just don't blame your lot on life because people voted for their choice of candidate.

Copy that...

I don't know if you noticed but as a foot note on a post, I mentioned "blood will flow" i didn't say that metaphorically.

also check the boots of the anarchist...some of them might be agent provocateurs. Just a supposition of course.

I would say all of them are agents...Soros or whomever who has the deep pockets to fund it. And they ARE getting bussed in at a relatively fast pace...it stinks.

Anyway, tomorrow is another day to rehash more doom and gloom.....Christ, with all of my negativity on the outcome of life, I'm starting to FEEL Russian lol

From your posts I can tell that you've been completely brainwashed and misinformed by MSM narratives, and this quote is just further evidence of that. Alot of people within the government were rooting for Trump and will be very happy to work with him.

Trump got less of the White vote than Romney in 2012.

...but nobody called it racism.

Clinton got fewer Women voters than Obama.

...but nobody called it sexism.

Also, Trump did better with Blacks and Hispanics than Romney in 2012

...but he's the racist?

I have no idea how he ran his businesses. I don't watch tv or have any care whatsoever for celebrity or fame, so all I really know about Trump is the stances took on various issues through his speeches and debates. I happened to agree with the majority of them.

You're jobs not comin' back, bro.

Actually, when I finish college I'm gonna have a degree in a field that has an unemployment rate that has been reported to be 0% - yes, you read that right, zero percent unemployment - and pays six-figure salaries as average. This is a field which isn't really influenced or impacted by politics. My "jobs" aren't going anywhere. If you want a steady, stable job, then get an education in a steady, stable field, instead of some trash degree like a B.S. of Poetry.
Oh, and since you may be tempted to call bull****, I'm in the process of obtaining a degree in cybersecurity and computer forensics. Feel free to check it out if you don't believe me.

I'll be laughing at you when you lose your Obamacare and they replace it with something worse for you

I don't even have Obamacare in the first place because I haven't been able to afford it for the past 2 years. The cheapest plans available to me were more than I could afford. What's funny is that I apparently earned too much to qualify for assistance despite the fact that the monthly payments on the cheapest plans were between 1/3rd and 1/2 of my entire pay, and that the deductibles were more than I was even earning in a whole year. Personally I'll be damn glad when Obamacare goes away. Fortunately, by the time it would, I'll be done with college and working a real job and will be able to afford insurance anyway, but every American in my current position will know what you just said is complete bull****. There is no "worse".

I've done my research. I don't need the MSM to tell me what to think. Some things he has said may have been misworded or frankly disagreeable, but in the end he is not evil. And I know what you imply with your comment.
