I donated 100 bucks to a single mother who was struggling during the Pandemic. I donated some of it to the World Wildlife Fund to sponsor an animal. I saved the rest for a homestead I am planning on planting soon.

That is not important though. It's my money. I paid for it. My taxes went into the pot. I have an entitlement to the stimulus money. No I do not agree with the stimulus at face value. But the government did ruin ppls lives and forcibly shut down small businesses entrepreneurs while giving big box store conglomerations immunity. It was fucked up. So the stimulus is somewhat justified.

The stimulus and college dorks who took out a loan willingly are not the same.

They are afraid of the Lore around Trump. Trump is unique. It's not his narcissism, or conservative politics the liberals fear. It's much more to it.

There's a narrative, a cannon, a lore built around Trump. It's not even Trump that they fear it's his following. They fear the populist movement and the MAGA crowd. They want it all to go away. When I read liberal comments these days it seems like they truly want censorship and authoritarianism to shut down the MAGA sentiment. When I was a teenager I remember liberals were more edgy and pro freedom of speech. Pro liberty.

Biden has literal videos on the internet of him molesting kids. People still voted for him. That tells you something. The sheer desperation in the air to keep Trump out of office cannot be underestimated...

I think Trump should step down. I think Biden should step down. His son is a pedophile. He is a pedophile. These are not good politicians at all.

These are toxic swamp monsters stirring up civil unrest.

No. It wouldn't of been necessary if governors didn't have a knee jerk reaction to shut everything down and ruin private enterprise. People lost everything. I personally know at least three small business owners who closed permanently because the authoritarian lockdown measures were not compatible with their business model.

Nah. I simply don't care for paying for other's college. These people who want me to pay their bills are not the cream of the crop. They're not doctors, lawyers, or any specialized skilled labor.

Nobody is entitled to money. You make a deal and money is exchanged. It's that simple. In this case someone who borrowed more than they could pay back now wants others who never even went to college to work off their debts.

It's not fair to those without skin in the game.

There's no shortage of ppl who graduate college. Maybe the art degree, or lesbian dance theory wasn't a good financial decision.
