DeepSight:This is why I always say away from the emotional rants and feel good virtue signalling, Lets discuss the numbers and the stats According to Google search. In the US with less welfare a population of 350m, 770k people are homeless = 0.22% https://endhomelessness.org/state-of-homelessness/ In the UK with a better welfare system, a population of 70m people. there are 382k homeless people = 0.54% https://england.shelter.org.uk/media/press_release/at_least_382000_people_are_homeless_in_england_today_ In the Canada with a better welfare system, a population of 40m people. there are 230k homeless people = 0.575% https://homelesshub.ca/collection/homelessness-101/how-many-people-homeless-canada/ I have provided the links for my data so you can factcheck It shows the US has a lower homeless people per capita than the UK and Canada other developed countries that has better welfarism Maybe just Maybe welfarism is not the solution to homelessness but actually making the economy more robust, lower taxes and give people means to prosperity and not handout like the US is doing This is why I kept saying emotional rants do not cut in governance, rather cold hard facts |

According to Netanyahu, Iran has been two weeks away from a fully functional nuclear weapon for the last 30 years. Year after year he’s coming to the US to get our govt to fund his little war on Iran. I don’t know why he doesn’t use the money his citizens spend on free healthcare and education to pay for it. But according to magacucks here, isreal kids deserve it and our kids don’t. Weak pathetic men. |

cococandy:+ Interresting! I remember my only interaction with this fella was years ago when he was arguing with me justifying those who spend absurd millions on random artworks. I think his argument then was that there was financial sense to it as investments. Mine was a bit more on the conscience side of such expenditure in a world with so much poverty and need/ as well as the argument that some of those works were sheer fraud. It was interesting though. https://www.nairaland.com/4179140/517-year-old-leonardo-da-vincis-portrait/5#62455950 |

You don't get to do an audit without accessing relevant data. The outcry against DOGE was because if not stopped they would have revealed the largest guzzlers of public funds. The ones with the loudest megaphones . Your treasury pays out $18.9B every day ,it's imperative that payments be reviewed and suggestions made to improve efficiency . Audits are never about catching the thieves ,they are for ensuring that laid down procedures are followed. Eliminating waste is important else it's your children who will suffer in the end If a significant matter is flagged, then a forensic audit is conducted . cococandy: |

raumdeuter:+ This sort of analysis does not take account the massive differential in the wealth of both countries. You are comparing a 30 Trillion Dollar economy to a 3.5 Trillion Dollar Economy. In short the USA is almost ten times as wealthy in GDP and you didnt factor that. Who is emotional now? Secondly I would be really interested in what is classed as homeless in both countries. Because I suspect that the stats are with reference to people the state assists with housing and not with respect to actual people on the streets NOT assisted by the state. |

raumdeuter:How do you write checks $18.9B daily for 365 days a year without a watertight system of where the money is going? Shocking . |

DeepSight:Why do you think one is a 30 trillion economy and the other is a 3.5 trillion economy? Maybe its because they emphasized prosperity of the individual by the state not taking all your money instead of promoting a welfare state where the govt is your nanny that takes care of you When you give lower taxes and dont punish success with excessive taxes, maybe your economy will grow exponentially, it will attract the smartest people from all over the world who will create things and make the nation prosperous instead of taking away from people While all the welfarism seeks to micro divide the pie, America wants to increase the size of the pie Most people will rather be empowered to take care of themselves rather than want govt to take care of them like they are babies You can provide your own sources that show the number of homeless per capita |

I can see both sides of the argument ![]() A rich person can indulge in their pleasures and still help the less fortunate. Neither of you was in the wrong. Adam is usually not dvmb but when it came to Trump, a lot of them dumped their common sense. I think something about supporting a female opposition broke their brains. They couldn’t fathom it. Therefore a clearly unqualified man was their only choice. Yet they say they’re logical DeepSight: |

This is why Egypt put up a bigger wall to keep Palestinians out. Israel is kind enough for these people.

cococandy:+ Oh he argued very well, and I had to admit so. One thing that is scary about the Trump phenomenon is how otherwise intelligent people appear to suddenly throw away their brains for Trumpism and Trumpist hoaxes. I have seen even people I almost revere in terms of intellect succumb to this and it is just dumbfounding. If LordAdam16 has seen the error of his ways that is a good thing because in my experience it is rare for a Trumpist to ever retrace their steps. The cult-like hold is as hard and fast as those cults where mass suicides occurred. |

So let’s totally ignore the fact that unqualified yes men were put at the hem of this. With even more unqualified employees whose only criteria of what counts as fraud was if it had black and female attached to it? Let’s move right past that. Now, which forensic audit into actual fraud did that whole exercise trigger? Zilch. If anything, it triggered audits into their own conduct of the process. Seeing how illegal the whole thing was. And how much was saved? Zero. Instead they cost more than they pretended to save. I’d be a Republican politician too if I wanted people to hoodwink. You guys make it so easy. No thoughts. Just running with every narrative that fits your bias. basilico:

He always knew Trump was wrong. I don’t even think he truly bought the propaganda He’s just deeply misogynistic and to such people, a terrible man is better than good woman any day. Let’s have this election again in 2032 after a nuclear war caused by Trump with a quarter of the world dead, and others suffering from a nuclear fallout, Adam will still choose Trump over a woman. There are some diseases without cure and misogyny is one of them DeepSight: |

Emotional post alert: These kids getting blown up in this war you guys are clamoring for will definitely end up with some form of disability and/or drug addiction in a decade from now. It’s not a case of if, it’s a case of when. It will happen when the doctors can’t keep them on pain medication forever because their spinal injury left them in permanent pain. Or when they’re battling depression, PTSD and chronic debilitating anxiety that keeps them from holding down a job . I hope you guys will remember that when the left wing of the day asks for social safety nets for them and those who will be stuck caring for them. I hope your logical minds can think that far. Let it not up to be this emotional woman to tell you the natural consequences of certain actions taken today by the leaders you support. |
