Because they transport goods that are necessary for people to survive and for the economy to function. How does a ballroom for the super wealthy elite help the American people? Are we just assuming that a tacky ballroom will impress world leaders and bring Xi and Putin to heel by its sheer ugliness?
What the fuck are you even arguing for? That he federal government shouldnt maintain the infrastructure necessary for its own function if they don't pay for you to get a handout first?
 
Like I've noticed now you can sure tell 2020-2021 because of the masks and isolation insanity alone on shows and movies. One thing that really dates video is the darkness levels. Lots of 2010-2020 was very darkly shot, just a style choice. Looks AWFUL mostly. I've heard it was just the general mood and style of the cinematographers and also the adjusting to the new higher contrast HDR video has.
A lot of early animations aiming for realism made use of darkness to conceal the limitations of the art. If you can't see the animation very well, you can't tell how bad it is.

Yeah, I'm angry that the debt keeps ballooning and the president told me that it was up to me to pay for it, not him. Why aren't you angry that he's not working 24/7 to find donors to pay down the national debt instead of building a ballroom for the upper class?
Bro, just like its constituents, the US government has never had an earnings problem, it has a spending problem. An increase in earnings will always result in an increase in spending (eventually, depends on if the government wants to act like it isn't a retard that election cycle). If they got a trillion in donations, there'd be another trillion in pork spending over the next few years to get to that debt ceiling to manufacture another crisis.
 
If Kamala Harris did this you would be incensed.
Nah. My gripe with Biden wasn't that he made a link where you could give the government extra money if you wanted to. It was more the way he imported a few million extra beaners, then funded their housing and food costs so that they were free to rape and murder to their heart's content instead of getting a job. You really have picked the most absurd thing to have a melty over.
 
No shit?


So why the fuck did Trump set up a link for you to pay pal the government money? You're so close to understanding why I fell of the Trump train. You're so close.
Lol you're the only person I see advocating for it repeatedly.

What idiots do with their money is not my concern.

You losing faith in your e-daddy isn't either, and come to think of it, this spite and spurn is all really faggy.

Trump isn't a god, he's a funny nearly 80 year year old bull in a China shop. Enjoy the show.
 
That he federal government shouldnt maintain the infrastructure necessary for its own function if they don't pay for you to get a handout first?
No, dipshit. I'm arguing that a ballroom is not a good use of money in a time of hardship. I'm not asking for a handout and god knows I pay more taxes than most of you do. I'm asking that priorities in Trumps admin be refocused to include things that stabilize the US economy and build back diplomatic ties that are increasingly being lost in our brainless worship of Israel.

Trump is wasting time building ballrooms instead of lowering housing costs and ending foreign wars.

He just doesn't like Trump, anything Trump does is bad. That's it, every single thought this faggot has is in service to "Trump tricked me"

exactly
 
If you’re so wealthy that you pay more taxes than the rest of us, why do you care about lowering housing costs?
Because I want my children to be able to afford their own homes in 10 to 15 years rather than being perpetual renters. I'll leave them my home, but that won't house three families and if they don't have enough money to pay the estate taxes on it than the government robs them of even that by putting a lien on it.

I'm not wealthy. I doubt I even qualify as upper middle class. I just don't want my kids living in a "racially diverse" hellscape that robs them of any chance at happiness or leisure.
 
Why is that? That seems like a completely normal thing to do. Don't bonds go back to antiquity?
Bonds are extremely different than what is happening here.

You have a person with a money printer that when it prints devalues the currency that they won't stop printing. They are also in debt. They are also still wildly spending money. Asking the citizen to cover any of this when the solutions to the problems are simple yet completely outside of the common person's control is insane, and anyone who contributes to the government more than what they have to (under duress mind you) is a simpleton faggot with Stockholm syndrome.

But that's how it worked 500 years ago so I'm not really sure what your issue is

Deporting illegals and thereby reducing demand for existing housing stock is one of the best ways to decrease the cost of housing.
Maybe you need to give his policies more than six months before you start shitting your pants and screaming, hmmm?
 
Why are you arguing about things that didn't happen when we're talking about real life?
Because the fact the suggestion was even seriously considered exemplifies the democrats inability to comprehend money and its value, and that means more genius suggestions like that are coming down the pipe.

It's pretty simple, really.
