    You know what, suddenly I don’t feel so mad about that picture of Hakeem with the sombrero and moustache anymore. Fuck him.

    Of course one is fucking Marie Gluesencamp-Perez. She’s basically a moderate Republican who runs as a Democrat because she lives in a purple district.

    Now do one for capitalism. Might be longer due to more examples.

    Jefferson’s quote could be used to defend against higher taxes on the top brackets, and yet when we did have such taxes we saw high prosperity. So anything can be sold as bad, especially when you use a very broad definition and run with it.

    A version of socialism is what provides common services and infrastructures that allows our society to exist. I doubt we want to denounce and get rid of basic needs of the public, paid for by taxes TAKEN from the public.
