Soo, to take that analogy - lets load the life boat til it sinks? Until we look like the EU? No thanks

Personally, I don't want anyone looking in my bowl. Hence the higher fence.

Yeah, I hate when poor people look in my bowl to see if I have more...

If you’re a Christian, you’ll do it with your own money and not your neighbor’s.
So the 'Christians' are going to bring 45 million Americans up out of poverty alone? Great job so far...
ToastDNA
Why can't we just have a simple immigration system both sides like?
"We got some really cool shit up here and we don't want it getting all wrecked up."
Kananesgi2
Because one side wants more free votes and the other wants a stable economy and society
ford5of5
Because too many party animals are too busy trying to play for their team instead of an entire country. I'm pointing at both of you! lol
Ssssssssssss
I'm going to build a tall fence and a long table. It's not either or if you're fortunate.
BDoc
Maybe both? A talk fence to protect the long table?
* "tall"
heyjohnnyjohnny
My fence is already 10' tall. However, I do need a longer table to seat all of my 50 rich guests every night, as we dine on filet of Panda.
woohoohunt
Giving out of charity is great, being forced to give to others by the government is not.
kevincow
So what do we do when people don't voluntarily give enough to charity to feed everyone? Just let people starve?
That is their system, yeah. Food insecurity is very common in places, despite some 30-40% of all food becoming waste.
We share that latter problem to a degree. Businesses and consumers really need to change how they operate, as it's mostly preventable.
mac821
Well, bye-bye infrastructure, education, military, etc. I'm sure the private sector will pick those things up 100% and do a real swell job.
dwilson0725
They would do a thousand percent better job... But only for the wealthy.
I think you're taking it to the extreme, there is a difference between tax dollars going to infrastructure and someone's food stamps.
theresgarlicinthatnebula
So you'd rather we spend millions of dollars on feeding tubes in hospitals for starving children?
So tax dollars are being used up, abuse and missused
They called 2 year before he pass to tell him they got an appointment open for him... And he was in bad shape before moving
And he came here legally 35 years ago had to move to maryland to get help from the embassy he passed away there 4 years later and the kicker
Thing is they take advantage of it and abuse the shit out of it texas is fucked my dad needed help and had a 2 year wait
I agree, abuse of it is what makes the whole program innefective.
Yup and the gov has to screen every case before they can get help
Philomel
A fantastic philosophy for an individual, but a terrible strategy for a system of gov
THANK YOU!!! Well said.
But how does the private sector handle 45 million living in poverty? 'Are there no work houses? Are there no prisons?' E. Scrooge...
Hyperion319
My heart lifted with pride for my country, until I realized this wasn't in my country.
Current American operating procedure is the other way around. Maybe not for all the everyday people, but certainly The System.
I just wish, regardless of politics, that more people held one another up.
I don't think there's enough money in that for the people who already have more than they could spend in several lifetimes. They need MORE.
I forgot about that percentage of people that won't scratch their own ass unless someone pays them to.
DarthClitoris
Then keeping voting democrat and higher taxes bud
aristera
Maybe vote for some competent leaders and it wont matter as much what party in in charge.
Lowlsqwid
How about we just remove the party system in general and let people run for what they believe instead of what the party does.

Nah, just remove funding for the military.
GaySocialistLiberalMuslimCommieAtheist
At the least stop buying tanks the military doesn't want just to fund companies.
I agree, let those companies adapt, imagine if Lockheed and Grumman started making cars bc the Govt cut military spending. SAAB did.

Listen here buddy...
Boyfriend reading over my shoulder, whispers: "or build a wall..."

Tell your boyfriend "The wall just got ten feet higher."
MufasaKingGray
You also need to stop building a table or else you'll run low on wood to build defensives

ddot196
Lol my thoughts exactly. Virtue signaling at its finest.
PhilLXV
Wealthiest as in total wealth? Compare median and average wealth : America isn't wealthy. A handful or rich fucks who don't give back are.
Notforhire
Alot of our native reserves are like 3rd world countries, some dont want outside help, others arent given it, but thats the fact
Hurro
I'd build a wall if I could. We ain't got enough money to build a table big enough for the US.
hapsdinersdumpster
I don't think this is in reference to Trumps wall, it's about not forgetting the less fortunate in your community. We could all do that.
spaceystacey
I just ate a fortune cookie that told to help the less fortunate. But I do that anyway.... Its called humanity.
Knowing Engrish like I do that could mean "help the people that eat less fortune cookies eat more fortune cookies"
ShouldersDeepInAHorse
You mean the country where people working two jobs still run a defecit each month and risk homelessness?
thechelonianshelmet
US owes trillions already, on top of that, wait until the 'lower taxes for all' fantasy destroys the economy. You thought subprime was bad.
27yoUGLYvirgin
But Trump isn't lowering taxes for all, he's lowering them for his cronies and rasing them for normal people.
That was my point, he's making these dumb boasts about the tax plans, it's like coating a turd in chocolate & calling it a snickers bar
Everyone on my street abuses the system to the max, I can't be the only one
Jakethesnake357

Gallus1985
Uh oh, someone didn't get the memo that capitalism and far right extremism has dropped the US down a few pegs.
Luxembourg beats us in wages, while China beats us in GDP.
tekkblade
That also has stricter immigration laws than their southern neighbor.
easybrz
I don't know about that we're allowing expat Isis fighters back.
I never claimed Canadian immigration law made sense or was completely logical.
While we're happy to have people immigrate, we need people with skills.
IJustLikeToArgue
It's funny. When YOU say that it sounds reasonable. But if we in the US say that, we're called selfish, racist, heartless xenophobes.
only90skidswillgetthis
We do take refugees though
While we do have problems with racial profiling, and serious long-term issues with how aboriginal people have been treated, we're really
known for the same kind of internal racism the US is known for. Like...the Nazis literally modeled ideas after Jim Crowe laws.
As a Canadian m, what native population had it better than native Canadians. And before you say anything about residential school, kids on/2
What country doesn't need people with skills? That's a rather universal accept requirement, except for when people in the USA make it.
Pretty much. But that's part of why many people that want to move up here, to escape their crippling poverty, might not qualify.
I realize I may have come across different from my beliefs. I have no problem with a country setting their own immigration policy. >
