Begin by giving me as much of your money as will cause us to have equal assets. You are rich and I am not. You got rich by preaching that my money has to be seized and given to layabouts and parasites. You don’t seem willing to give up any of your money for “equality.”

Hmmm. As a Genxer, I have a lot nicer and cheaper things than my grandparents had in material terms, but .... they didn’t carry a gun to feel safer going to the grocery store. They didn’t press 2 for English. They didn’t have to pay for private school tuition to send their children to a non-zoo environment to learn. There were no trannies reading to their children at the local library. There were no dudes holding hands at their churches. They didn’t even lock their doors at night. They didn’t have to pay inflated prices for housing to live in “nice neighborhoods” with “good schools.”

We have a lot more money now, it’s true. We also have Tinder, porn available on our phones, and more than a dozen seasons of Keeping Up With the Kardashians. What a great time to be alive. Let’s not pretend that we haven’t lost a few things along the way to all of this prosperity. Where the millennials are wrong is in thinking it’s just about money. Same mistake that got us in this degenerate mess in the first place.

Having proven all over the globe that Socialim destroys nations and leads to poverty and violence, our Socialists know they can’t compete with President Trump’s Capitalism. So they must destroy his presidency and those who support him. This is street fighting, and too few Americans are up to the struggle.

The only cure? Nah.

Massive debt, huge trade imbalance, fiat money and a devalued dollar will do the job...in about the same amount of time.

Socialism turns men into ineffective effeminates and homosexuals. Proof positive: Britain and western Europe.

"Under capitalism man oppresses man, under socialism it’s the other way around.” – Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez

Uhmmm...man oppressed man is a palindrome. It means a word, phrase or sentence that is the same backwards or forwards. I know this concept is outside Ms. Cortez' comprehension abilities, but put it this way: Under socialism man oppresses man is not "the other way around" from her statement about capitalism.

During the Great Depression, 37% of all nonfarm workers were UNEMPLOYED!

More than 750K farmers couldn’t sell their crops and lost their homes and farms in 1933 & 1934! And that is JUST FARMERS!

There were no national records for home lenders during the 1930’s, so there is no way to know how many people actually lost their homes due to foreclosure. Estimates range from 1% to 3%; the only time that level has been breached was during the Great Recession. During the height of the Great Recession 3.4% of American homes were in foreclosure. Now, considering that most people had 10-12 year amortizations or short 5 year balloon payment plans during the 1930’s, it would stand to reason that those people didn’t buy homes without really thinking out their overall financial big-picture. Now compare that thought process to the 1990’s-2010’s, where people could pay low-payment, 30-year mortgages and I’m certain that many, many more people purchased much more home than they could actually afford.

With all of this really basic data, readily available, I can only assume that our schools are failing to teach current generations about the true, TRUE hardships of the Great Depression and how it affected the overall morale within the United States!

Today’s generations are literally more worried that their local Starbucks will run out of cake pops and breakfast sandwiches than they are about making a house payment, yet 60+% claim financial stress is their biggest worry! LOL!
