Yeah it's tough

Good for you. I'm glad your avatar has a mask on too.

Your vote doesn't actually change anything. You can't change how other people vote. You have zero individual control over the force others want to use against you. Democracy = Evil system.

That's of registered voters in some elections. Of the total humans, no.

That wasn't really my point though.

Might does not make right.

Most people don't vote.

Why don't you leave?

More like, don't tread on me, you don't own me so stop using the state to take from me without my consent. Not that hard to understand.

Everything is a narrative. You see only what you want to see.

Florida is great, just need some of the tropical weather now once global warming kicks up.

Y'all wild just buy into these narratives.

Interesting take from my comment

K. Productive conversation.

Nah you're just reducing the issue to that and making it sound absurd.

The truth.

Says help a lot.

Not true. Just leftist fantasy.

Stop eating your trash diet and hit the gym. You can walk or run on country roads.

Doing actual physical resistance training or cardio where you maintain an elevated heart rate is what matters. And diet.

Creating walkable cities is not the problem.

Only one way to find out.

80% of reddit is democrats. Comments here confirm. Under 30 year old democrats.

Fell victim to the covid lockdown scam and instituted some stupid mask mandates. Less of a tyrant than what the democrats come up with. Overall not the worst politican, but that's not a high bar.

Looks like he was caught in Nashua.

It is hard to come up with a perfect ethical solution when we are born into social systems that have relied on debt financing, political corruption, extortion, taxation, forced governance, and the like.

I don't see any problem with use-based payments for infrastructure. We already have them, they're call tolls. It's just a different way of funding things.

All of these services can be performed by the private market by paying for them. I understand that's not the way we've done it, but you can certainly do it without the government middle man.

It's completely logical, you just haven't heard of it because it's not taught in schools or discussed in media.

Freeloader? I pay plenty of taxes.

Never even said I went to public school.

Why the bad attitude?

You ask that question like a child has any say in the matter.

It's not bad logic. I want good schooling too. Through voluntary market exchange like the rest of the products and services I buy. Pay for what you use, and don't pay for what you don't.

I just don't want to use violence and extortion to pay for it.

I would dissolve those socialist programs as well as they are intergenerational extortion.

If you look at your property tax bill, you'll see the the vast majority of it is itemized to schools.

Sort of problematic if you don't have kids or don't plan to.

You're being forced to pay to school other people's kids. I get that this is the way it's worked for sometime, but I don't think this is exactly ethical. You have the kids, you should pay for their schooling. You don't have kids, you don't have to pay.

That way you're not forced to pay exorbitant property taxes if you don't have kids.

Well not just the interest rate increases. Look at all of the money they just magically add into the economy via buying treasuries. Trillions during the 2 year covid era, even more than that before during the 08 financial crisis.

It's not really a D vs R political problem because neither party really has any position to change it.
