GOP introduces plan to massively cut Social Security
SCal comments on Jan 30, 2019:
SS should be privatized and voluntary only.
Jolanta replies on Jan 30, 2019:
@BryanLV All of that money, are you serious. Have you got a clue how much the minimum wage is and how much rent is? Teachers in the US need a second job to survive, they haven’t had a decent wage increase for yoinks and to pour more salt into the wound they cannot get a tax refund for materials that they use teaching while people living in mansions have a tax credit. You really need to educate yourself
Trump has been a lot better president for business than Obama ever was as Obama was a regulation nut...
wordywalt comments on Jan 29, 2019:
Your understanding of economics and business is worse than bad.Your facts are wrong, and you ignore the fact that Obama inherited a crash from Bush. He was not a regulatory nut, but put in regulations to protect people and the environment in legitimate and valid ways. . Wait until Trump is ...

Jolanta replies on Jan 30, 2019:
@Trajan61 Higher taxes for people who have millions yet alone billions means more money for schools, road, and all other infrastructure. Means more money in the economy because now people will have to be employed in the country building and maintaining that infrastructure, means that it stays there and goes around unlike it going to some rich person who is only interested in hight returns and a new Mercedes Benz which is not even made in the US.

TOTAL BULL SHIT. Obama ranked 6th in job growth among Presidents with nearly 9 million. Clinton number 1, FDR 2, Reagan 3. Lies of a bigoted troll mean nothing. When was the last time the US had negative job growth. Only an idiot would believe that without a depression.

@SaucyCheryl Not quite the same though. Memorial Day or Decoration Day is a federal holiday in the United States for remembering the people who died while serving in the country's armed forces. This has to do with as you see serving in the country's armed forces. Nothing to do with atrocities around the world that a lot of time soldiers have done.

mzbehavin comments on Jan 27, 2019:
What does it matter if a woman has them as opposed to a man? Tats are art, some are beautiful and some are not. I don't think tats necessarily dictate what a person is like as a partner. I certainly don't think a woman is any more or less datable because of them.

Sure they are. You don't think that people with facial tattoos are more or less datable? I would love to see you dating someone with it then.

Or are you happy with what is going on in the US, where people need to have 2 - 3 jobs just to pay the rent, where education is being eroded all the time by cutting money for it, where people cannot afford health care, where homelessness is growing at an alarming rate?

Well, let us see the great thing that the US still no one at is; they have the greatest amount of Layers in the whole wide world. Do you think that this is something to be proud of? And the thing about waterboarding we hardly know that it has stopped, after all the US has military bases in over 800 places around the world in over 70 countries and it is not like they would tell anybody, transparency is not something that the US is good at.

If you are poor and black you cannot even afford the bail and you are in jail sometimes for a very long time.

Why would they not?
Jolanta replies on Jan 25, 2019:
@zblaze I do know that but how long does one go. Is it because our so called forefathers looked like apes that we don't want to acknowledge that actually they were our forefathers?

KissedbySun comments on Jan 24, 2019:
I'm way below the poverty line but not eligible for medicaid or food stamps because I have money in a retirement account... but I'm not yet retirement age. I donate plasma to pay for my meds and groceries. Not complaining, just stating facts.
Jolanta replies on Jan 25, 2019:
I donate plasma every second of third week but don't get paid for it. In Australia one doesn't get any money for ones blood. A cup of tea or coffee, perhaps a milk shake, a cookie or a piece of cheese with a savoury bisquit. One does it for ones fellow men and women who need the blood.
Cost. That Trump is asking you to pay.

The people that supported this traitorous spoiled punk president are the people that in the old western movies tended to form angry mobs, the PDF class, which stands for poor dumb farmers.
Jolanta replies on Jan 25, 2019:
I would probably be very rude and say poor dumb f...ers.
True love is possible

True love...
Jolanta comments on Jan 24, 2019:
What exactly is true love? I want to know because it is just impossible to think and feel and agree with another human on everything.
Jolanta replies on Jan 25, 2019:
@maturin1919 I don't actually think true love and unison go together. I guess that it is hard for me to explain exactly what I mean about this. I think the Vern has a good take on it though.

@jondspen Don't give me that. What kind of talk is that, women always being honest and pure and pigs will fly. There are bad women, just as there are good women, except that in most cases of rape the women turns out to be the one that is the one who gets the blame for it. She was drunk, she asked for it, she did say no but meant yeas, she dressed like a slut, etc, etc.

I don’t know if I’m frugal or just conditioned through experience to not need stuff and to not waste. I live modestly, but know the value of investing in something well made, etc. My fridge is never “stocked”, much to the chagrin of my kid. I buy groceries as they are needed. I dislike ...

@jondspen I think it is both. Just look at Brook who also raped a girl, what did he get for it, almost nothing. The Judge said that he had been punished enough and he was a great sportsman. He was rich and white, and there are others. I have not come upon one coloured guy who has gotten away with rape, not one.

@dahermit What is more important, to ruing everything for everybody or to go under financially. There are always other ways. I remember when New Zealand cut all subsidies to its farmers and they had to look at ways to survive and most of them did and prospered. Sometimes people need to be "forced" into things that they don't want to do for the good of our survival.

bingst comments on Jan 21, 2019:
The question is, why don't lawmakers force these folks to handle the waste in a proper manner? If say, a hotel were discharging an equal amount of waste, I would expect authorities to shut it down until the problem were fixed. Not to mention that such wastes can be converted to usable energy.
Jolanta replies on Jan 21, 2019:
Because they get money from them, as simple as that and some of them have shares in those companies or own them.
