My GF's legal Mexican mom has been telling the Venezuelans at her job that Trump is gonna deport them all. She's also only talking to them in English knowing they'll have trouble understanding and make mistakes, thus getting fired to speed up the deportation process.

Leftists will never be able to comprehend the internal racism among minority groups, Koreans and Japs being a big example. A bunch of South American countries hate Venezuelans because they see them as lazy freeloaders

Yes in fact have some Vance from today.

That interviewer is such a fucking bitch, this is yet another example of why we hate journos so much now. She doesn't have to kiss his ass, but she is very much hostile to Vance here trying to nab some GOTCHA moments. She came in there looking for a fight.

"Country founded by immigrants" The classic lie, this country was founded by settlers and conquerors. Immigrants came with time but sadly conservatives and leftists have swallowed that lie wholesale.

 

[Back me up!]

It blows my mind we are looking at a admin that can just DO STUFF in days compared to past admin that would take weeks/month/years to do. Really setting a standard.

And that is probably just step one!

America was not founded by immigrants, but built by pioneers and settlers. Strong and capable people who made cities out of nothing and built world wonders, not losers who came to an already established country expecting handouts and being rich just by taking the lowest grade jobs.

This is what having a living breathing non corpse on the throne is able to do. Fuck you Colombia, none of you are getting in if you won't take YOUR people back.

So good to see DEI get dumped on and they know about how they are trying to rename or hide it.

Next up is the 2.8% of Columbia GDP that is remittance. These countries better comply or it will get ugly quick.

When it comes to tax policy, I have a few proposals that I think Trump will be amenable to, these all serve specific purposes.

1) ELIMINATE ALL TAXES EXCEPT WHAT I DESCRIBE BELOW

2) LAND VALUE TAX
Is widely recognized as the least distortionary and most socially just tax. Look up Georgism. Private residences and family farms will be exempt. New Zealand did this back when it was still based and it was great.

3) TARIFFS
NOT for use in industrial policy, but CONSTANT tariff rates for each country fixed in law. Industrial policy is corporate welfare. It’s corrupt. Constant tariffs will still favor some industries over others (those that face more foreign competition), but it’s more rare and I’d rather tariff than tax AS A WAY OF RAISING REVENUE. Tariff policy should be aimed at punishing enemies of America and liberty worldwide.

3) NATURAL RESOURCE EXTRACTION TAX. Pairs with the ethical argument for Georgism but must be some kind of fixed rate; I don’t want the govt fucking with resource extraction for environmentalist reasons.

4) As a sop to global warming freaks, CARBON TAX at the point of fuel use and not to be taxed again. Like, only when you sell the fuel itself. Must be set by an independent committee of environmental economists and requires approval of Congress to increase but not to decrease. MUST BE SET BY ENVIRONMENTAL ECONOMIST COMMITTEE. Congress can veto a tax hike but not a tax cut.

5) A separate and especially punitive CARBON TARIFF for foreign imports made with carbon emissions.

6) END THE FED

7) INCOME SUBSIDY FOR LOW INCOME AMERICANS

HIGHER CORPORATE INCOME TAX

9) PIGOUVIAN TAXES (taxes meant to penalize a company for things that are unavoidable, but still socially harmful, like industrial smog) set by the EPA. Distinct from the CARBON TAX.

She looked like Smile Dog when she tried to shove that gotcha in his face. "We are a nation founded by immigrants!!" What the fuck does that even mean?

She was expecting him to start shaking, a trickle of blood running down his nose, before his head exploded with the sheer awesomeness of her argument.


"Holy shit you mean to tell me our ancestors included immigrants? I guess that means we can't have a country anymore, we better let Somalis come in and rape our daughters guys!"

I don't even understand the problem. Who cares if the flights land before the immigrants are dropped off?

 

[Frederica Bernkastel]

Southerners shouldn't really tell Northerners about how great the South. Don't encourage them to migrate. Just tell them it's a fascist shit hole with Trump supporters everywhere, rednecks with AR-15s, and that they wouldn't survive there with all the racism. Just don't defend the South. Just accept what they say and move on.

i don’t think she got the memo that the age of smarmy millenial roasties artificially having power over men that actually accomplish things is over

The Founding Fathers were British, and basically superhuman nerds. These guys were "educated" in the 1700's sense, so they spoke 4 languages and knew a shit ton of Law and History. This is why America is so Greek and Roman, the Founders loved Greece and Rome from their endless studies of Western Civ.

I guess when you have a mostly empty gigantic land mass, it has to be inhabited by immigrants. Isn't every country founded by immigrants except for the Primordial Origin Point of Pangea? Australopithecus had to walk to his new home continent so he is an immigrant too.

It's like when they try to pull an Uno reverse card on the likes of Blumenbach by calling whites Caucasian. Africans belong to Africa, Asians belong to Asia, but Europeans don't belong to Europe. It's also a sneaky way to combine Middle Easterners with Europeans when the latter is what people generally mean when they say "Caucasian."

A bunch of arguing with himself against a pet strawman.

Yeah, whatever. Take your grifter-tier gatekeeping to your Patreon where somebody might care.

"Country founded by immigrants" The classic lie, this country was founded by settlers and conquerors. Immigrants came with time but sadly conservatives and leftists have swallowed that lie wholesale.

Exactly so. I was about to say something like this before I read your post. A country has to exist first before it can be immigrated to. America was created by these conquerors and colonial settlers and later expanded by pioneers. No doubt there were later immigrants that helped add more to it, but there were largely European immigrants.

I do expect some Fed Bullying and I am all for it.

Trump is similar to Andrew Jackson as well, a populist who hated Banks and shut down the Bank of the United States. Fuck it just end the Fed. They will only drag us down and let China beat us to the digital currency age. We need to be the first to legitimize and utilize a digital currency.

 

[Schpoots]

Who cares who founded it? It's such a dumb argument. The citizens that exist in the here and now say get immigrants out! The people who pay your bills voted to remove them.
