The tactic of the wall is to make everyone think that the threat to their prosperity comes from those less fortunate than themselves. Meanwhile the greatest threat is from those with more.

no one thinks people
who cross illegally are our biggest threat. but it is a threat, one that can be reduced with simple public policy.

Wealth inequality, monopolies, Corperate welfare are a far greater threat. Not a peep about it from the gop. Crickets in fact.

Good luck on your tax return as well

how does someone else’s wealth threaten me? i’m all ears...if warren buffet earns another billion in 2019, please tell us how that hurts anyone else. you can’t, because it doesn’t.

i did my tax return. the tax cuts, as i said, will cover the payments on my new camper. the child
tax credits saved us a lot. we spent 25 nights in that camper this year, loved every second of it, great family memories, and every congressmen and senator in my state, voted against it.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
"Jose, can you see"? Anyone remember that headline from the Herald?

Elites divide us so we want to work against each other which collectively "controls" us all. Politicians pushing policies on their behalf to allow them to continue to horde wealth, real wealth (Rothchilds type wealth) while the money rolls in from lobbyists.

Forget about the Trump Russia collusion investigation (sad to see how many are falling for that smoke show), how about we demand the top 10 wealthiest politicians are subjected to the same scrutiny and demand to know how they are all worth more than $25M on a senator's salary. The brief glimpse behind the Clinton curtain through the Doggy Dossier investigation should tell you all you need to know. It's all a corrupt scam and nobody's above weaponizing the FBI or DOJ to protect it.

It's an FB cliche' but it's never been more true, "The left and the right are wings of the same bird".

There is no low through upper class. It's the elites against the working poor, which includes everyone on this site, no matter how well off you are, when you look at it from the prospective of the "wealthy". Anyone who believes differently are blind sheep and 99% of the #^&#^&#^&#^& argued about in this thread amounts to less than a piss hole in the snow in the overall picture.

Stop fighting each other and start fighting together.

so if you aren't elite you are working poor? that's stupid....

as far as the spelling....it's not the spelling...it's the condescension that precedes the lack of ability to spell simple words or form coherent sentences that is amusing and ironic....
