Kamala Harris proposes $50,000 tax break for small businesses - CBS News Socialism is, of course, "public ownership of the means of production", or, more accurately, "NO private ownership of the means of production". The Soviet Union lied about pretty much everything but was dead serious and open in pushing this dogma. In addition to seizing virtually all forms of capital to the state, it was constantly harassing people trying to engage in economic life, turning their meager private property into "the means of production" (citizens selling anything privately at the mutually-agreed price was dubbed "speculation", a CRIMINAL OFFENCE). I am really looking forward to see the pretzel shapes Trump supporters will twist into trying to claim this particular proposal as "socialist", when its clear goal is, to the contrary, to PROMOTE entrepreneurship and private citizens ACQUIRING private means of production. Anti-Socialist.
Finally, not just for Haliburton. Please, more of this. I'm serious. I bet the independents would LOVE attempts to demonize a super-controversial issue of HELPING THE SMALL BUSINESS. Oh, and tax credits.
It's a subsidy for immigrants because they're more likely to start a business than native-born Americans are! Build the wall!
Hilarious! I hope someone will actually use this. So immigrants are now... job creators? Whaaa? (I mean, they absolutely are, but you won't know it from Fox News).
Venezuelan gangs, and MS13 and a like are the issue. Jihadi terrorists are the issue. Not Immigrants in general. Immigrants are welcome especially if the absorption is planned and managed proprietary. The focus on criminal migrants can be disproportionate and used for political reasons. Jobs can reduce the crime significantly.
Domestic terrorism is a far greater threat to people in the US than these immigrant boogiemen who come over from insane asylums, eat cats and dogs, take away jobs, and get free transgender surgeries performed single-handedly by Kamala Harris.
Venezuelan gang demanded 50% of all rent at Aurora apartment, law firm saysVenezuelan prison gang operating in Denver, gives ‘green light’ to attack police Aurora shuts down apartment complex, owners blame Venezuelan gang for building's condition Aurora mayor offers police protection to gang-affected apartment complexes Owner of gang-affected apartment building negotiates agreement with Aurora to sell or lease property. Criminal tourism, gangs from Chile operate in California and other states, especially wealthy neighborhoods, home invasions and robberies are in the news. Domestic terrorism is also a crime that hunts us.
That's VERY naive. Very. Trump-adjacent folks with any interest in immigration are anti-immigrant, period. If you didn't pay attention to what Steve Miller was doing when Trump was in power, very explicit racist rhetoric ("they're eating dogs") should clue you in. Hoping that it won't affect you and me is, again, naive - and heartless.
Yes, but one immigrant did something bad one time. What is a more reasonable and measured response than racism, xenophobia, white supremacy, and fascism?
Anything government does that doesn't help very wealthy people or large corporations is "communist," "socialist," "Marxist," etc. Another thing that riles up the base is when the wrong people get benefits from the government. (As opposed to, you know, they benefits they receive.)
Trump wants more European and Asian immigrants. He doesn't want more immigrants from sh*thole countries. His plan is to give citizenship to any person who completes a college degree at a U.S. institution, and he believes this will favor White and Asian immigrants.
I'm driving my electric car to El Paso today on a freeway built with public money. Clearly socialistic. I will charge at a publicly funded (but not free) fast charging station at the state line on my way back. More socialism. My Social Security check showed up today. Egregious socialism. Medicare paid for my cataract surgery. Socialism at its very worst! The alternative to socialism is libertarianism, a Hobbesian nightmare.
There should be terminology to distinguish between public roads and full on public ownership of the means of production (where the only employer is the state). The latter kinda sucks. In any case, tax credit for startups is a policy literally opposite to "socialism".
