The CHIPS Act is absolutely in the "More Money For Rich People" category. You have been deceived by the media.

Intel Brags of $152 Billion in Stock Buybacks Over Last 35 Years. So Why Does It Need an $8 Billion Subsidy?

Biden:

  • Discontinued American Rescue Plan programs that helped low income Americans like the Expanded Child Tax Credit.
  • Did $1,200 payments during covid (-Promissed $2,000)
  • Did not actually do meaningful college debt relief ("muh, but the courts" - shut up, the Secretary Of education has the power, he really just doesn't care about it that much)
  • Still kinda sorta half asking the effort via another legal argument
  • Cabinet full of corporate ghouls
  • Based Lina Khan and NLRB
  • Unconditional support for Israel
  • Did not deschedule marijuana ("working" on it, believe when you see it)
  • Continued monetary incentives and subsidies for anti-union corps
  • Left Afghanistan
  • No challenge to the Supreme Court corruption
  • No real platform for re-election, no interviews, no debate, no primaries

A bunch more.

Trump: Literally nothing good. Just way worse all around.

Leaving Afghanistan was a bad move? Okay, sure buddy.

[–] Zanudous@lemmy.world 1 points 5 months ago

Well shit. I totally fucked up the formatting. Leaving Afghanistan was a definite positive. People who grief him for it also seem to forget that it was Trump who made the agreement with the Taliban and set the thing in motion. Not sure if he would've actually gone ahead and fully withdraw though, but at least Biden followed through with it.
