Literally the post that set off this course of discussion concludes with “I get the appeal (of the broad social safety net)”. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not sure why you guys keep trying to tell me what I should care about. That's fine, but I'm just trying to explain to you that's not the same as someone that lost their job and it's now getting rejected for other jobs because of poor results on their credit checks or people that are trying to move and are getting rejected for RENTALS because of bad credit. Medical debt is one of the top reasons people file for bankruptcy in this country and that's just wild to me when you consider that medical debt isn't really a thing anywhere else in the world.

Air_Delivery Posted March 31, 2021 Share Posted March 31, 2021 @Commissar SFLUFAN Its funny I think what you probably find the most offensive about the American Conservative movement isn't their authoritarianism but their perversion of history.

Oh, believe me - I have zero issues with hypocrisy. Not only do I not give a damn about it, I consider it to be somewhat admirable! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
