Capitalism doesn’t bankrupt “future generations.” It bankrupts people who expect to consume without producing. And that expectation is exactly what communism trains people to have. Wealth isn’t a pile that gets hoarded. It’s created continuously by people solving problems,

@phara4assembly What's their fair share? Give us a number. Also, do you even realize they're paying more (and a higher percentage) than everyone else, by far? Fair would be them paying less. You people are idiots.

“Big corporations only exist because everyone else pays taxes. They didn’t build that.” Okay. If it’s that easy, then where are the giant socialist corporations? Where are the trillion-dollar co-ops? Where are the worker-owned firms dominating global markets? They have access

Socialism never changes. They promise you free things until they get elected. They blame the rich for your financial struggles. Majority buys into it. The rich leave the state. Then they raises taxes on YOU. Finally, the middle class gets DESTROYED.

@RockChartrand @MetamateDaz You could raise a family on a fuckin paperboy’s route in the old days. Keep your eye on the ball. This is about monetary debasement.
