"provide three free meals per day for all U.S. school children"
They are not talking about providing for those in need, they're talking about government taking over the responsibility of parents to provide for their children. That's not socialism, that's socialist and that's where I draw the line. Once again, they're using children for votes cause they know it's an emotional issue for people in the same way they use it for gun control and the right uses it for abortion. It disgusts me when anyone uses kids as a means to try and sway opinion on an issue. And to be clear, I have no problem providing assistance for those who need it for awhile.
im in agreement
my opinion is this though
all under 18's getting 3 meals a day for all 365 days a year is just 2%
yet the money going to banks is more like 8-10%
id personally prefer banks get 0 and then have 6-8% for other things and 2% to make sure no one starves
For me, this is not something I would be flexible on so all your attempts at justifications just fall on deaf ears. It's crossing the line no matter how I feel about other things. In fact, I feel so strongly about these sorts of issues that, despite despising Trump for years (long before he ran for president), I would either not vote or vote for him (or some other Republican). I would rather the country get even more fucked up than allow it to move towards being blatantly socialist. That's why someone like Bernie or even Warren (assuming she doesn't flop back from stealing all Bernie's stuff) could not win. The dems would lose a lot of the center and moderates.
