You didn't think they actually spent ten thousand dollars for a hammer and thirty thousand for a toilet seat, did you?

i think we should plan the revolution as a hypothetical. lay the blueprints out online for everyone to see. it's as easy as "if i were going to do X, i would begin by X. if a lot of us did X together then..."
revolution by committee with full transparency. when the plan involves millions of people acting in unison, there's not a whole lot you can do about it, even if you know what's coming.
It's not a revolution, but a general strike would force the government to make changes.

You are a bit late. The plan is already underway
we all know what P25 is. we don't need to keep talking about that. let's come up with solutions, not complaints.

Golf is expensive.
He's been sued 220 times for the 100 days he has been in office. Lawyers are really expensive. (Well unless you blackmail them.)
My ex is a lawyer, I know stuff I could blackmail her with, nothing bad just personal stuff that you'd not be happy being public. I wouldn't dare try it, even if I was inclined too.
Blackmail is illegal regardless if what you're after. At the very least I'd lose my job.
You can't really blackmail lawyers unless they are actually corrupt. Never mind, they're his lawyers, of course they are.

Goddamnit, I hate this shit. Its simple, folks. You have to spend money to make money. That's how the saying goes, and that's how the world works. When my car insurance goes up despite my flawless driving record, I don't ask them to explain where the money is going, I just pay my fucking bills. When my rent gets increased despite the house I'm in literally falling apart around me, I don't ask why they don't send repair people, I just pay my goddamned rent. You all act so entitled, like there is some great value that is to be derived from your work. You're a fucking slob just like everyone else, and you are lucky that the companies trust you enough to do business with you in the first place. Hell, I'd pay double just to get a meaty black uncut cock in the ass and I'd be thankful for the privilege. I mean, I'd pay them a lot of money for that. Even if it was just one time. Just once, and I would sing their praises. Just, sing. Fuck you, anyway. Fucking slobs. Stop wasting your time posting about this shit online and get back to work.
Had me in the first half. But judging by the downvotes, half the people don't recognize sarcasm :)
Satire is dead.
Can't downvote because I agree, can't upvote because it's depressing.

Trickle down economics
For the past 50 years they've tried to give the wealthy some money but no matter how much they gave the rich, only a little trickled down to the poor
So they've decided to just turn on the money fire hose and shower the rich with all the money they can get their hands on ... it's a literal avalanche of money and hopefully this will trickle down and get some more money to the poor.
For every million they send to a rich person, ten bucks goes to a street person .... so we need to spend billions, trillions of dollars on these rich people in order to get enough money to people in need.
Trickle down economics
A sound bit to fool the common clay rubes - fools them over, and over, and over. Rinse and repeat.
If you got 10 bucks for every million towards billionaires you'd actually be a millionaire. The ratio was more like a cent for every million.
I think they mean $999,990 goes to person A and $10 goes to person B.
If you want to create one (1) millionaire that way you would need to spend $999,000,000,000. Imagine how that would look with 1 cent to every million.
Are the two of you even talking about the same data? Maybe you spread the $10 over 1,000 people to get to that number of $0,01.
I can actually picture someone making this argument in earnest.

And there goes the national debt...TO THE MOON 📈📈📈
yeah some of the billionaires money isn't even real, the government just gives it to them without having it in the first place
But because of the belligerent attitude other countries stopped buying US debt, at a time where debt is exploding and up for renewable. Something is going to break.
And the only real stipulations is the oppression of your workers and bending the knee to those more money than you.
any global conflicts currently? nope.
any actual national emergencies currently? nope.
any international catastrophes recently? nope.
republicunt in the white house? yup.
ding. ding. we have a winner. to the fucking moon the debt shall go.
