gimmie a break.... I am sixty one.... my father who was born in 1927 worked two jobs so we could have a new construction house in the sixties. the america dream was never handed to anyone on a platter.
Now you have to have two incomes still to buy a home... The only difference is that two people are working instead on one having two jobs.
My mother was a stay at home mom of four. She occasionally got a little retail job around Christmas time.
Home ownership is not easy to achieve and it never was. This generation or previous generations.... You still need money to buy a home.

So tell me, what is the difference between poverty and dire poverty? What is the definition since you seem to hold the only true one? What is poverty in your eyes and what is dire poverty? Please do share.


I shared a link you chose to ignore it.
No worries and not surprising you breezed over the statement made as well.

Define dire poverty.

I will wait.
40k jobs are not in it.

I hate to break it to him, but just because $40k in San Fran might constitute poverty in terms of not being able to afford utilities, rent, and food every month doesn't mean that same $40k elsewhere is poverty. That's a nice cushy lower middle class life in many spots.

They refuse to address reality.
Not surprising from them.
61 million will be in "dire poverty" according to them, no source just like their opinion man.

He robbed Hillary of her coronation.


Hardly..... I think you have that backwards no?

SHE WAS THE CANDIDATE NOT HIM...
Russia and cheating ass trump deprived her....
Not this little fella.


ah the "russians" and "cheating" montra

too bad NO FACTS have been found to support this

Oh before you claim "he won the popular vote" and look more foolish.
Under the CONSTITUTION its an ELECTORAL SYSTEM for president.

add to it in two states (WI and PA) when challenged votes for hillory were found to be FRAUDULANT and he was GAINING MORE VOTES.
In CA the democrats FOUGHT TOOTH AND NAIL AGAINST same legal scrutiny to those "3 million" votes

but hey why use facts when ignorant propoganda is all you have

I would also add what constitues NEEDED for living.
When I point out you dont need cable/sat, the latest smart phone with an uber data plan, paid apps , going out partying, having multiple bedrooms / bathrooms/ ect , getting your hair, nails, ect done, buying food from name brand stores, ect , cigaretts/vape, ect. people then chime in "you dont have the right to tell me how to spend my money".

To which I say "your right"
but then dont come to me demanding XX wages because your "poor"

the biggest example is those fast food workers "protesting/walk outs" waving the latest Iphones .

I don't need to bother with such ignorance


www.marketwatch.com...

The Fed is going to both create massive inflation buying up the massive amounts of bad debt AND at the same time raise rates

Think whatever ignorant point of view you want all I have to do is sit back and wait.

I've said in other threads that I think the most successful ticket the dems could present for 2020 would be Gabbard/Sanders.

I think between her energy and momentum, and him bringing his camp by being VP, it would alleviate worries of his age.

Bernie Sanders stands for BS that is what most people think of him, that is why he actually is the best contender at the moment the Hillary Party formally called the Democratic Party.

Remember the Hillary Party are accountable to no one.

Aaaaaannd.........Trump wins.

Again


He also lost a lot, too.

Bankruptcies.
The Moscow Trump Tower.
Trump university.
Trump Steaks.
Trump Vodka.
Trump Airlines.
Trump: The Game.
Trump Magazine.
Trump Casinos.
GoTrump.com (travel website).
Trump Ice (water).
The Tour de Trump (bike race).
The New Jersey Generals (football team).
Trump on the Ocean.
The Trump Network.
Trumped! (radio show).
Trump New Media (video on demand and ISP).

Yep, he's full of win(d)!




first there is a difference between a BUSINESS bankruptcies and a PERSONAL bankruptcy.

all those you listed were BUSINESS.
Given he has run or part of HUNDREDS of businesses those few failures give him a hell of a good track record.
hell abraham lincoln had per percentage MORE FAILURES but dont see you applying the same standard.
I even bet look at obamas friend warren buffet you find at least as many failures.
but again dont see you even looking into that much less holding it to the same standards.

but all in all your attempt at claiming he is "full of wind" is pathetic given the FACT he is still a BILLIONARE after all those "failures"

so tell me how good your doing?

Warren Buffet has always been very cautious in his investments, choosing predominantly 'blue chip' stocks with a stable outlook and fairly assured ROI. To my knowledge, his strategy is far more cautious than Trump's and he preferentially invests in businesses rather than outright owning them. This is why he has only had one actual bankruptcy.

I don't believe that Trump is actually a billionaire. He definitely could not have "in excess of ten billion dollars" as he has claimed. His business dealings just don't add up to that by a long shot.

You see, his personal debt at the time he assumed the presidency is somewhere in the vicinity of $315 million to $500 million, he had to sell off $7 million in fund assets and $ 9 million in individual securities to cover his campaign debts and to top it all off, he hasn't released his tax returns.

The reporter Timothy O'Brien, who has actually seen Trump's tax returns, wrote in his 2005 book that Trump's actual taxable worth was between $150 million and $250 million. Trump attempted to sue O'Brien over the revelations but the suit was dismissed (another brilliant loss for team Trump).

You have to remember that while he claimed to be in control of an enormous business enterprise, he was actually putting in his hours as a TV game show host. No matter how rich you are, there are still only 24 hours in your day.

So, nah, I don't believe Trump's hype, he isn't a billionaire.

Bernie is the true anti-establishemnt, he's no joke. Neither the left, nor the right will have him or stand with him.

You want a true outsider this time? The Bern.


Do you really think, like actually believe, someone who’s been a politician there whole life is an outsider?

I remember pet rocks being a pretty big money making fad in 1975. $6 million in sales in a period of six months. So given inflation rates, pretty much on par with Bernie.

I don't understand this. The DNC was sued for $300 million for rigging the 2016 primary against Sanders. The court ruled that the DNC was within it's rights to rig the primary. And people are still going to donate money for a democratic candidate?

It's like thinking that betting more money on your favorite number on a rigged roulette wheel will increase your chances of winning.
