Vote Trump because he seriously pisses off the SJWs, feminists and liberals.
Doesn't matter anymore who gets in though, USA 19 trillion in debt and rising a trillion a year....

I think the issue is job automation and efficiency/productivity improvements, allow me to explain.Since the late 70s there has not been enough work to go round, due to automation, technology and offshoring.This has been papered over by vastly increasing the size of government, vastly expanding the welfare system and vastly increasing the debt - personal, corporate and government to increase consumption unsustainably.

Does anyone living in the USA seriously think unemployment is only 4.8% or whatever the official rate is? Sanders himself put it at 10%, shadowstats has it around 20%.That is with unsustainable debt growth and consumption.We are truly in some deep shit right now.



Around the Network

Let's be honest with ourselves though. There is a DISTINCT difference between Democrat debates and Republican debates.

Republican debates are generally marred by name calling, childish attacks, etc. For the past ten years atleast, it's been a shit show, and it's only getting worse.

Democrat debates, surprisingly still hold their civility with generally great discourse, and a more extensive vocabulary.

There are many studies that link Republican ethos and voters to that of lower IQ's. I think this election is really starting to prove it.

It's sad to see that so many poor white people don't realize that their complaints are contradicted by their party allegiance. For example, so many are angry at their being no jobs, yet who is responsible for the jobs? It's not the mexicans... It's the corporations that have such a grip on the market. Why waste 12 billion dollars on a wall that will inevitably multiply in maintenance costs over the next few decades, when you can spend that money on lowering peoples bills by ending medical insurance companies reign on health care by implementing ACTUAL universal health care?

Secondly, the disparity between rich and poor is growing at the fastest rate ever. Why do republicans who are so pissed off about jobs and how hard it is to make a buck so against raising minimum wage?! Especially considering corporations are making the most money that they EVER have!

It's like all these Republican voters are suffering from Stockholm Syndrome. If Trump becomes president the United States of America WILL become a corporate feudal system... which basically means America is done for.

I can imagine Trump paying top dollar to create his own Mt Rushmore with himself and Kanye West as the big giant heads.

Is there a large enough mountain to contain both those ego's?

You can always make mountains bigger by adding precious metals on top.

This ruins the rest of your post in my opinion.
