Many folks are not able to move out from under their parent’s wing because of the expenses everyone else takes for granted.
The incremental costs of eco regulations for new appliance and vehicles, or what not, are not as noticeable when you are already established, but when first starting out it’s incredibly problematic.
This is not a recent development. Mandami just got in office. For decades government has been making things more expensive.
It won’t matter one iota how much Trump manages to Doge and anti-fraud the government. In spite of that, has the Congress reduced the budget? -Nope.
Charlie Kirk was correct. Trump and Mandami represent a cry for help from a new generation to some degree. They also represent something else, a difference if philosophy.
Trump is a cry for economic future werein both political parties have shipped jobs overseas and insourced jobs to a point where young people can’t get started. Trump was a hope to turn a ‘stay in mom and dad’s basement and/or live off generational wealth’ to ‘I can get a job and take care of myself’. These individuals reached out to conservatism to try to show them a way to stand on their own. These people want to contribute and be productive, but need an environment that protects jobs and business for success, they are more like traditional conservatives.
Mandami represents a cry for a economic future werein people can do the wrong things, not try, and have the Nany State take care of them. They have no intention of taking responsibilities for their past decisions, nor future decisions, and expect other people to cover their bills and mistakes with hard work. They want to take from those that work, build, and create because they either don’t want to contribute and/or deal with the decisions/mistakes they have made. They call them ‘liberals’, and they have flocked to the democratic party because they have told them that they don’t have to be responsible. The ‘new’ Democrats have told them they can ‘take’ from others using the government power, so they don’t have to face accountability.
The new ‘democrat’ is not the old democrat, it’s something much different and even democrats can see that.
Mamdami will start arresting the millionaires and billionaires until their morale starts to improve.
“Hey, if you’re not going to fix our life, economically, we’re going to get very radical politically.”
Yes. Yes. Yes.
The only thing Trickling Down from Boomers is the piss on the heads of young people.
There will be real change, not a Communist change, but real change to Freedom. As Kirk notes, Mamdani is not the answer, but a key indicator of the problem.
You think Gen Z gives a crap about the value of the US Dollar when they have none? Value of houses when they have none?
They aren’t part of the system so they have nothing to lose.
Gonna be scalps galore across this fruited plane.
It isn't rocket surgery.
It’s an IQ test.
Regrettably, some of these ‘youths’ will become future leaders.
There must be a strategy to contend with this defective ideological pipeline.
I miss Charlie. In a world of phonies (I’m looking at you Tucker and Candace), Charlie was the real deal. Passionate, sincere, intelligent, driven, and Christ-focused.
Mamdani and his family are agents of London-Davos.
Yes, its that simple.
His family were standard 5th-columnist, colonial divide-and-rule Muslim south Asians in Uganda
After drifting around the Commonwealth, the Mamdani family landed in left-wing Columbia and and Hollywood, and a mere 8 years after becoming a citizen, Zohran is Mayor of NYC
There is nothing organic or coincidental about his rise to power.
Socialism will always look attractive to the young. When you’re struggling to get by and have little, the promise of the government taking from those that do seems like a legal way of “making things fair”. It’s only as they earn more, observe how horribly the government manages things, build some of their own wealth, do they realize “not fair”.
Then the communists go further, all the wealth should be confiscated and distributed to everyone, not realizing that wealth requires constant production which disappears when the reward is removed - resulting only with a common standard of living for all, equal misery.
