Being a child of an immigrant isn't kinda depends on where from and whether we are at war with them

Nonsense. Its normal for a small number of highly secure roles to go only to people whose loyalty is beyond and known doubt. This means if you have questonable family you can only be a CEO, scientist, dentist welder or race car driver or you know all the other jobs other than say head of the NSA or part of the team with access to all our secrets

National security isn't fair because its more important than being fair and those who are for any reasons suspect are free to do any of the other hundreds of millions of jobs.

People are absolutely suspect because of their associations.

Expert advice is perfectly relevant but if you prefer you can soak a clean wipe in a bucket and some clean tp in another.

You will shortly prove to yourself why you don't flush wipes

Young kids often get them because little kids are filthy they then give them to parents. Even if your kid is clean they play with kids who aren't.

The southern and conservative trash has brought us first the confederacy, the folks that supported Hitler in WW2, Nixon who said the president was the law whilst ordering crimes, Reagan who sold drugs to fund death squads, Bush Jr who lied to start a war and normalized torture, now Trump.

Conservationism in America has been on the wrong side of history since monarchists supported a British Kings's right to rule the colonies.

In all of history peace has only ever been achieved by being strong enough to deter would be conquerors. Without deterrence Russia would crush Finland, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Moldova, Ukraine whilst threatening all of Europe. The US would take Canada, Greenland. NK would take South Korea. China would take Taiwan.

The world has never been free of evil powerful men who would take from their neighbors. What you think looks like peace has only ever been most of the situations being stable based in large part on people's willingness to murder people who would come to murder and take from them. If you aren't actually willing to fight you won't find yourself safe very long.

Military aid between nations creates stability by drastically increasing the cost of attacking one party lest an empire expand by taking one bite at a time and becoming strong enough to threaten larger neighbors in the process.

Christianity IS evil. Whilst the possibly mythic progenitor of the religion is supposed to be good its been broadly responsible for many evil acts and given a chance couldn't even speak out against actual Hitler until after he was defeated and dead.

It's not "full nazi" whatever that means in this context to have an accurate understanding that certain groups are not in any way on the right side of things. Some individuals might be but those groups as a whole are on the side of power. They've always been on the side of power. They have never been on the whole or on average good people.

Jesus. I know I'm correcting them and not you but come the fuck on! 92% of able bodied adults on medicaid work and you can't buy prepared food from a food truck with food stamps. You have to make your own sandwiches. Theoretically a food truck selling only cold sandwiches COULD take EBT in some circumstances...they don't for obvious reasons.

It's not a minor point to misunderstand the entire issue. It doesn't mean its not important but it's good to understand the exact nature of the problem.

Almost all the ones who can work are working. The people who will lose insurance are those who can't work in any case
