Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

Cities are net contributers to the federal budget. It's people in the burbs getting the subsidies.
(cough, cough) agribusiness subsidies (cough) oil subsidies (cough) military being largest item in federal budget (cough, gasp) legislated tax breaks for corporations and highest income people

Eh. It was worth a shot. 🤷🏼♂️
I’d say it was worth three shots 😉
One to steady the nerves and another to celebrate?
I know someone who just drove from LA to Atlanta, taking pictures of his happy trip from state to state and sharing them online. But nothing from Alabama. When asked he said, "Less spoken of Alabama, the better."
The best thing to come from Alabama was Forrest Gump
The most government assistance dependent folks I know are inbred white yokels in the far flung rural parts of this country. They rely on public assistance to raise giant families of barely literate racists and vote for Republicans. They are all homeowners with RVs, hunting camps, and side by sides. I've worked my entire adult life and there's no way in hell I could afford any of that.
What a fucking loser. Go back to your shit hole welfare state you backwater fuck. Raping the rest of the country for $41 fucking billion and you want to run your mouth like the little bitch we know you are.
Edit: No you know what? I’m sick of this shit. Here’s the contact page for this prick if you are too.
What job has he ever had that wasn’t funded by taxpayers? He was a football coach at public colleges and is now a Senator. And he lost to Vanderbilt.
Deport Tuberville.
Hmm, Alabama... Lets have a look at State contributions to the budget.
Looks like actually Alabama is a rat living on other states' taxpayers!
by inner city rats, they mean poor non-white people
is it still faux pas to say LITERAL FUCKING NAZIS
It was never faux pas...
Literal Nazis were members of the National Socialist German Workers' Party.
These people are just Nazis.
Just birds of a feather
If it looks like a Nazi...
Ahhh blaming the problems of the government on humans by calling them "rats" eh? Classic!
Where have I seen that before??
Bet.
How much? You did not specify.
$37T.
All the inner-city rats I've seen live off discarded food scraps. How the hell is a rat gonna use human money, anyway?
I think you're a little confused, rats are actually pretty smart. Given a little training, they could probably utilize currency.
Says the senator of a state that takes $40 billion more in federal money than they contribute annually.
because you’re not going to be welcomed if you’re going to bring that Communist, Islamic atmosphere with you. We’re not going to deal with it. I’m telling you right now... “They are going to try and overwhelm us....We have got to fight back.”
Yep, doesn't get much more racist, Chumpish, stupid and cultish that that shit...
Oh, and Christian, of course.
🤡 🖕 💩
I'd be asking them to kick my blue state out of the union. Please.
If red states had to support themselves without any federal money, they would be failed states on the level of Somalia within a decade. They already suck with federal money.
Conservative fiscal policy is anathema to success.
And this is why the U.S. government would start a civil war if the West and Northeast tried to secede. The fascists hate us, but like abusers they think they own us, and most importantly they need our money.
Says the white trash hillbilly whose only accomplishments are yelling at kids kicking a ball.
