Mixed signals. Are we supposed to be more like China or more like Chile. More like a country that plans to increase percentages in welfare, or one that already out invests us?
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
We don’t allocate half our revenue to public spending. If you want to discuss alternative policy that’s fine. If you’re wedded to alternative facts I can’t help you.

 Quote:Both of these countries spend less on welfare than the US.Yup which is why they suck and the US doesn't because as bad as the US can be sometimes it at least values its people and US is still the greatest economy on earth.

Women have always had them; they always have and they always will. Are they going to have good ones or bad ones? Will the good ones be reserved for the rich, while the poor women go to quacks?” –SHIRLEY CHISHOLM Quote:Why? Cutting taxes will decrease tax revenue so government would have to cut welfare spending.Tax the rich and close their loopholes and tax havens. Keep the welfare programs.

Hell, Chile's GDP is so small that the two richest people on the planet have more than the GDP of Chile. And Chile, the nation you said several pages ago was the most advanced economy in Latin America, still manages to spend half of its meager tax revenues on welfare.

Ron DeSantis has promised to ban pronouns from the military on DAY ONE as POTUS.
This campaign is a joke Culture wars are all this clowns can do. Quote:Ron DeSantis makes ‘Day One’ pledge to remove DEI, preferred pronouns from military
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
