Imagine your husband is an abusive gang banger who beat the shit out of you so badly that you got an order of protection against him and the government not only removes him from your life for you, they remove him from your entire country. The world knows you got the order of protection and you know the world knows it. And yet you publically beg for him to be released and returned to you. When questioned by the press about your order of protection, you refuse to answer it. Women absolutely confound me.

Somewhere, a woman in an abusive relationship who's waiting for her moment to escape probably wants to strangle this skank.
 
Howard Zinn was a Marxist who regularly left out important things so that he could frame every major event in American history as rich people tricking or oppressing poor people or jerks being racist to blacks and Indians for no reason. His book is trash and should not ever be cited by anyone.
unironically my AP US History class had shit from him. I knew it was horsecock from the moment I read about a excerpt from him about the Indians
 
Income tax being the fucking worst tax is easy. Lets say you get a job that makes 15$ an hour and thats just enough for you to get by.

I don't know the exact percentages but social security alone is taking a good 100$ out of your weekly paycheck. Add other state and federal income taxes, ill add that up to another 100, though that could vary based on state.

Your 1200$ paycheck is now 1000$. Your monthly income instead of $2400 is $2000. For a lot of low end workers thats the difference between making rent or keeping the utilities going. (Rent where I live on average is 700-1000$, so half your income is just being ate by rent).

This becomes less of a problem the more you make, obviously. But losing 400$ a month to pay for gibs and a ponzi scheme when you make shit for money is way worse than paying an extra couple cents on goods.

There is nothing confusing here.

The way she is acting gives her resources and attention. Thats all that matters for most people. And liberal culture posts that thinking that way as a good for women.

It takes a weird kind of autism to think that people adhering to some kind of principle instead of what benefits them is unusual.
 
This also includes a logistics and freight handling company. The representative explained the tariffs very well.
The kid is a little green behind the ears but he's done a good job explaining. What's currently happening in the market is you have a lot of order cancellations in the short term. Big companies are relying on their overstock to maintain their supply for the time being while they see what Trump ultimately does. It's hard to make active changes for these things when the news happens every single week. So the idea that Chinese manufacturers are going to build the tariffs into their cost and force it on US Consumers is, always retarded. I want to really restate this for emphasis:

If you thought most of these tariffs would be forced onto US consumers, you are fucking retarded. It was just another MSM lie.

The reality is there is a competitive market for most of these goods and if they can move them somewhere else, they will. If China tries to chase tariffs, they'll price themselves out of the market. The order pauses are putting the country on suicide watch. Xi has been freaking the fuck out and threatening other countries. The raw materials aren't tariffed at all. The Chinese exports we want are being promoted while the manufacturing we don't want them doing are being demoted. The negotiations have been effective. The countries who give a shit have lowered their tariffs. We've witnessed a virtual death of VAT. The short term and long term outlooks have been nothing but good for America. Trump hasn't just done a good job, he's the best President we've had in terms of foreign policy in the past 50 years.

Quality women don't date gangbangers in the first place.
 
Something needs to Be Done about Internet platforms controlling speech via algorithm and auto-mod and sub-constitutional TOS.
Openly calling them "faggots" usually helps. They're so shocked someone would dare say a "no-no" word to their (virtual) face they're at least momentarily shaken.

Income under a certain amount is exempt from Federal income taxes. If you're married, you don't pay taxes on the first $29,200 (singles get a whopping $14,600 of exemption) you earn. It's a pittance, but it's something.

I think your overlooking the most obvious reason she's doing all this.

The bitch is getting bank.

Not only is she sucking up the Go Fund Me money but I have zero doubts she's getting money from the Dems on the side to keep up the weepy tears plus shes probably getting appearance fees each time she does something public.

No doubt she's happy El Beaner is out of her life but for someone of her limited skills this is the lottery win of her lifetime, if El Beano was to be brought back they be together for all of a month or two before she booted him out again. the second the spotlights moved onto the next cause she'd book it with all that money leaving the wife beating, drug dealing, human trafficking, gang banger back on his own free to keep doing his thing.

Could the Democrats have picked a worse hill to die on?

Not surprising those who make a big deal out of "toxic masculinity" are silent about gangs like MS-13.
 
So now that he's admitted that he's a pederast, can we chuck him?
What the fuck does he think is good about Han girls? This is a historical photo of an actual Chinese emperors’ concubines.

Even if Elon’s autism makes him susceptible to BPD bitches, he has better aesthetics

Don’t fall for the douyen and WeChat filters. They come built into the phone
 
And a lot of that shit was being made in other countries, like Japan. Sony, Nintendo, Takara, Subaru, Yokohama, to name a few companies. Remember how science fiction in the 80s and 90s portrayed Japan’s corporate dominance over the United States? That was thought of as prophecy at the time.
And Japan was/is friendly with the west, had much more success in elevating their people to a higher quality of life, and did everything they could to fight the crushing tide of the population crisis as they could, making massive efforts with automation too. And they still stagnated. I don’t think the average person understands how bad these Asian demographic problems are. And China’s ongoing one looks even worse with the projection, that’s not even considering all the other flaws of the CCP’s great grorious government!
 
you know.. solid point. I've seen some good prices on midrange PC's near me on Marketplace.
It's a subtle effect, but even buying second hand benefits the original manufacturer, because there being a second hand market for goods means that first hand buyers can justify a higher initial price because they'll "just sell it on when they release a new one" (and are likely already selling their old one to subsidize the new one).
