do republicans ever ask why solid red states like Louisiana rank so highly in things like child poverty or are they such hardened ideologues that they're just going to do what clearly isn't working? or do they think that keeping minimum wage to $2/hour is somehow going to help people?
The ones in charge: know that poor children are more likely to accept work out of desperation and have never met a way to exploit the proletariat they didn't like
The everyday voters: just hate children
Also, poor kids are more willing to join the military because they sell it as a way to escape the drudgery
And guess what else those states have? Poor education systems, which make for more low-income workers. And also health care! Once you’re at retirement, you’re no good to the system - in fact, you’re a drain!
Funerals are cheaper than HealthcareThe thing is that if you fuck the kids over too much, theyre too stupid and unhealthy to join. Its just another idiotic american capitalist contradiction
Yep, but after a certain point, they just want bodies
Once had a recruiter literally tell me that they basically just want people who can hold a rifle and not shoot the other troops
Military recruiters are fucking idiots and honestly not the arbiter of who get in or not, all they do is try to get people interested and to processing to see if they can actually join or not
Salespeople. Always the dumbest people on earth. They just literally read from a memorized script and smile a lot
A grenade a day keeps the recruiter away
Wait until they're on the can
I haven't met the man who can outrun a grenade with their pants around their ankles
And they might do crimes, handy for the prison system!
To me, the core difference between rethugs and dems has always ultimately been a palpable of hatred of children (I.e a hatred of themselves ie their inner child ie “weakness”) I wish I was kidding. It’s why they call us “snowflakes”, they hate innocence. Just hate it
yeah because the blue haired woke gay commiefornians keep stealing all of our hard earned money or any variation of those. That's not even specific to US Louisana republicans
They do believe that which is crazy because California contributes more than it gets back, very much unlike Louisiana
They know, they just don't care about poor people.
Take a look at the demographics.
You might start to see the answer.
But doesn’t this make more babies though? More of that demographic, yet another bizarre contradiction of fascism
