Unfortunately a lot of people get their news from the late night talk shows and Saturday Night Live. 10% of Democrats support Michael Bloomberg simply on the strength of him spending vast amounts of money on television commercials.

If Jimmy Kimmel and Oprah Winfrey tell their minions that the economy is in shambles their minions will believe it, totally.

But jealousy is what Democrats are offering, and when that offer is rejected they turn vicious.

Just one look at the demands of the NYC subway protesters last week said it all; what started as a protest against rising fares eventually included a demand that no policemen are on the trains.

NYC is sh!thole where even the wealth 1%ers are one subway fare from dangerous crazies; the subway wouldn’t function at all without police providing a measure of security.

The fairs should increase again to pay for the damage from the freaks (gluing cards slots and such). The local media here has admitted that many people already evade the fares, and that police have been ordered to “stand down” in response (they no longer arrest/cite them).

GDP is a helpful indicator

No it's not because it includes the government sector. Now, defense, justice, protection of the rights and liberties of life and property are certainly worth a good deal - the difference between the 1st and 3rd world, that is not what goes on in government these days.

I watch outside my window as the DC government redoes a sewer system it just redid. While storm sewers are of positive value, this is just waste. Including this in GDP is to commit the broken glass fallacy.

because “Orange Man Bad.”

I want to pose a question to the Democrats that goes like this: "Yeah, we concede that. He and his supporters are as bad as you say, and even worse, but answer us this. Before we turn over the power to you that you so richly deserve as our betters, we would like to know the answer to just one question - what do you want to DO?"

Except for Bernie, Trump is the only one who has answered that question since RR. He gave us the MAGA agenda, which he has followed pretty closely.

Social justice is man, without God, bringing about his definition of righteousness, by force.

You can’t sell people your “cure” until you convince them they have the disease.

To paraphrase Hayek, when you put the word social in front of justice, it totally negates the meaning of it.

"Social Justice" (as used by leftists) never meant anything but group revenge.

Revenge is more important to them than enough to eat for their children.

If you have to ask "revenge for what", never mind what, you're one of their targets.
