Lots to be angry about. And lots to call BS.

It is NOT my responsibility to provide anything to anybody for any reason. Most of all people coming here to demand i help them by giving them what little i have.

There are too many humans on the planet. And most of them are in places that are shitholes. They should stop making babies.

Without looking ..will Canada come get ‘her?’

Varn Level 8 Aug 31, 2019

@ToolGuy Thousands of people, including children were turned away a hundred years ago due to illnesses and the fact they’d become a burden to the nation. Nothing new here. I see you’re in Canada, so wondered if ‘your policy’ up there would provide for this child’s care? ...I’ll assume ‘tx’ meant taxes..

What might happen to her is not so much about capitalism as it is "all about Trump." The real shame here is that idiots set around and let this nonsense happen without opposing Trump.

Trump is a protectionist. He wants to withdraw from or renegotiate a bunch of trade agreements because they don't favor the US enough, they make our businesses compete (gasp! for shame!) and his trade war with China is all about thinking that we somehow should be able to export all our products there, without importing anything.

Trump only believes in capitalism if he's winning. If he thinks he's losing, he's against capitalism. And that's not a capitalist.

In this age of predatory capitalism, there is little good about it. It is not the only model that capitalism can follow. However, this iteration is corrupt, short-sighted, and cannibalistic. It is evolutionarily unsustainable and it must adapt to a less predatory version, or risk going extinct. And yes I'm talking about capitalism.

Agree

The deportation of sick immigrants is absolutely horrible, and should be resisted and stopped...but it is not a result of capitalistic thinking. It is the direct opposite of capitalistic thinking.

Capitalism is about the government not interfering with the free market apart for some consumer protective regulations.

Trump's deportation policy uses our federal government and money to directly interfere with free market while hurting families. At tax payer cost.

Republicans should be denouncing Trump as an anti-capitalist, but for some reason they are not. All of his policies are fundamentally anticapitalist and forcing failing businesses to survive at tax payer and economic expense...just for the votes. Just to win.

I'm a liberal moderate democrat that supports properly regulated capitalism. Please don't denouce capitalism with out understanding that true capitalists (like me) want properly regulated capitalism. We do not want an oligarchy...which Trump seems to think is how America should be run. With him at the top.

The cruelty is the point. This has a Stephen Miller stink all over it.

He has no empathy antisocial personality disorder. It's about keeping his base to have a faction of people to be the oroblem.
