It works in that show because the entire family are losers, and they all get mocked by all the others, regularly.
True equality, lol.
This is a perfectly succinct, textbook example of Outcome Bias.
Betting $1 with a 1 in 3 chance to win $2 is objectively a bad idea; the odds are against you. It doesn’t stop being a bad idea if you win the $2 after 1 bet.
There is a reason I explicitly said “voting for President”, and not ‘voting that day’ or ‘going to the polls that day’.
Simple-minds without reading comprehension skills behind my downvotes once again, it seems, lol.
I’m not voting for President for a very simple reason: I don’t live in a swing state, so it’s objectively a waste of time for me, lol.
This is true for the majority of US citizens. As long as we have an Electoral College system, it will remain true.
Ranked choice voting would be nice, too, to keep third parties from being anything other than spoilers.
Billionaires stand to gain from Trump getting elected again.
So the reason he lost in 2020 is…? Those same billionaires all existed then too, you know. Clearly they don’t have as much influence on Presidential elections as you imply.
This is like saying “a triangle will never have 3 sides”.
UBI, UNIVERSAL Basic Income, goes to everyone by definition. If it doesn’t go to everyone, it’s not UBI, and shouldn’t be called such.
Absolutely they would. Everyone would.
Of course taxes would rise to cover it, so the average person would be absolutely no better off than they are now.
That’s actually incredibly optimistic, imo.
$500 a month is $6000 a year.
If we gave that amount of UBI to all working age Americans (rounded down for easy math, numbers 200 million), that’s a price tag of $1.2 trillion, every year.
That’s slightly more than the amount the US spends on welfare programs annually. The entire federal budget is about $6.2 trillion, so this would mean an increase of almost 20%. Where could we possibly get that much more tax revenue?
We already do this. The US spends over $1 trillion (with a T) each year on welfare programs. Very rough math I know, but if you divide that equally among the estimated 39 million in poverty in the US, it’s over $25,000 per person.
This program isn’t UBI, and should not be compared to it, or used to argue for/against UBI. Universal Basic Income goes to everyone, not just certain people. That’s what makes it UBI, and not a welfare program, which is what this is.
Yeah, I’ve wanted instant runoff voting to be the system the US uses for decades, but it’s clear that it’s never going to realistically happen.
We can’t even get rid of the dumbass electoral college after all this time, lol.
I had difficulty parsing the article title.
That’s because it was deliberately written to be misleading. Don’t imply that that’s your fault, it’s a standard trash clickbait headline.
knows how to converse with others.
BLERUGH BLEURGH BLEURGH
ok
You should save all that pity energy for the guy in the mirror
actually genuinely cringed irl. The worst part is I bet you really thought this was very clever as you were writing it, lol
I cannot believe how many people are really seriously unironically taking a big stand and getting extremely indignant over someone telling you your zero-effort insults are zero-effort, lol.
That’s a massive yes lol
Oh, Trump, yeah, he’s a narcissistic dipshit.
Actually, there’s a term that’s kinda fallen out of popularity in recent years, that fits him perfectly: “blowhard”.
Big talk, empty talk, lots of it. Fitting, no?
I’m in my 40’s
Age doesn’t dictate maturity.
chuckle when I see bullies thrown on their own sword.
What a strange definition of “bullying”.
Review my post history
Nah, that’s the ideologues’ playbook, not mine. Digging for dirt in post histories is a loser move.
I pity you.
It’s funny because Trump chooses to look orange.
That doesn’t really make a difference. Hasn’t Trump done and said enough stupid shit that actually merits criticism? Making fun of how someone looks is literally the lowest tier of criticism.
I don’t see it ever not being funny.
Yeah, if you guys haven’t grown up by now, I agree you probably never will.
