Conservative today seems to mean war for Israel, for eternity, which means massive spending, so we need big Government, just not big Government in the people’s interest.
Just another form of fleecing the masses for Special Interests, no different than Leftists.
Im’a pass on that s~~~.
The situation is far worse than most realize.
When is comes to politics, a lot of people are being red pilled to the point of realizing that conservatism and liberalism mean the same, that being establishment. Now, it is nationalism versus globalism.
But, that is at the surface, underneath is it a lot more ugly.
For decades the urban populations have been screwing over the people of fly over country, stealing wealth to be used in urban area to grow the power of the elitists in the nation.
SALT deductions were one of the primary ways this was done. Before the President Trump recent taxcuts, SALT deductions were not capped and only applied to elitist control states such as California, New York, New Jersey, etc…
How these deductions worked as that it allowed the rich to deduct all those state and local taxes on their federal income tax, forcing the rest of the population of the nation to make up the difference.
This allowed those states and cities to tax more for local projects to increase the hold the elitists have in the nation.
President Trump flipped situation with his taxcut. The SALT deductions are now capped at $10,000 and apply to everyone.
This will screw over the rich and these high tax states, while putting up to ten thousand more dollars of money into the hands of each working class person. Actually, the working class will save more money due to other changes in the tax law, including abolishing the Obamacare individual mandate.
What President Trump did on this matter was right. But, the reaction to this change of tax law has political environment a lot worse on all sides.
Trump supporters are happy to have more money, and they love the fact the taxcut also screws over the populations of those states whom have been screwing them over for decades.
On the other hand, the elitists are upset because they believe they should not pay and instead their “lessers” (those living in fly over country) should pay for the elitists benefit.
The elitists have also be using the welfare poor as voting plantations to increasing their power base.
This political climate is similar to what was going in in France before the French Revolution where the French people were hurting while the French royalty sucked all the wealth and food from the French people.
It is said that democracy only last until the people realize they can vote to loot the government treasury.
While the U.S. is a Republic, it uses a democratic form of an election system.
For decades the rich and welfare poor have voted together to steal the wealth of the working class.
Now, the working class was able to vote President Trump into office whom has flipped the situation where the working class benefits, while the rich and welfare poor do not.
The hatred and loathing between these two groups, the working class versus the rich and welfare poor, is perhaps beyond measure.
The rich and welfare poor believe they are entitled to the wealth and fruits of the working class.
Meanwhile, the working class has been screwed over by the system for so long they no longer care about capitalism, socialism, communism, fascism, or any other “ism”. What the working class wants is the “whole pie”, while harming those whom have hurt the working class.
So, the stakes have now be raised in the election system. The group that wins the next election gets to have all the rewards, while the group whom loses will losing everything.
Such a situation cannot last and this usually leads to violent civil war or revolution where both groups view the only way to continue their survival is to destroy the other group.
