Are you guys trying to use Brandolini's law to spam thread with so many posts that your opponents are unable or unwilling to respond to all that?
Democrats will win every or almost every subsequent election if Kamabla wins

Brandolini's law, also known as the bullshit asymmetry principle, is an internet adage coined in 2013 by Alberto Brandolini, an Italian programmer, that emphasizes the effort of debunking misinformation, in comparison to the relative ease of creating it in the first place.
With social media, ideas, thoughts, opinions, and beliefs can be shared at an extraordinary speed. Social media amplifies Brandolini’s Law due to these capabilities. Although there are advantages to social media, there are also disadvantages especially when considering the role it has when spreading misinformation. News and research can be misinterpreted and false beliefs can be spread farther and wider than before. Fake news has a tendency to spread faster and wider through social media than true news, peer review is almost nonexistent in regards to social media, and the way some true research can be presented through social media can make it easier to misunderstand.
Brandolini's law is the reason why stupid thoughts spread so fast while smart thoughts get reduced and cant multiply as fast as stupid thoughts.

Well, technically, her name does not have an ‘h’, so it would be stupid to add one. But either way, it’s pretty irrelvevant.
You said Trump is a slut, which is not true. He never had sex with a porn star, and even if he did, who cares? I honestly don’t care that much that Kamala is a slut, it’s just that her socialist and autocratic policies SUCK. And President Trump’s policies were amazing during his four years.

Yes, it is the low intellect conservatives that are glad Trump increased the National Debt 40 percent.

Trump increased the debt by about 8 trillion and Biden increased the debt by about 7 trillion. Keep in mind that Biden also has another 6 months left in his term though, and that Trump actually used the 8 trillion purposefully for stuff like the CARES Act, a Border wall, and Tax cuts, all of which helped the economy. Biden used it for stuff like the ARP act and the Jobs act, both of which were useless. Also, his massive inflation is a huge attribution to the debt.

Donald Trump Says He Will Go to Venezuela if He Loses Election
No, he made a joke that with all the criminals they are dumping off in America (and they are, if you take a second to look at their crime rate relative to their deportation), the next time he has a conversation like he did Monday Night with Elon Musk, that the next conversation should be in Venezuela because it is so safe now. But I suppose this is just another classic case of Libtards taking something out of context.

@SocraticGregarian96
Those are not policies genius. What did he actually do?
For example, Biden had a policy aimed to increase microchip production in this country that led to thousands of new jobs.
Biden had a policy to rebuild American infrastructure such as highways and airports that led to thousands of new jobs.
Biden had a policy that led to capping the cost of insulin at $35 dollars a month.
What did Trump do that created jobs or helped ordinary Americans? How did he do this?

We had a microchip shortage just after Biden took office. So thanks I guess

Venezuela tried price caps on goods with disasterous results. It is a bad thing and with Kamala posting ads saying she would force grocers to lower prices, we are not headed down a good path

It's also a classic example of "Create the problem, then use the problem as an excuse to create a worse problem"
Government made expensive medicine by creating a regulatory/market environment where oligopolies easily form and ossify. They made expensive education, expensive trains, expensive steel, expensive housing. Pretty much anything that is too expensive, they did it.... and if it's a cheap import they probably caused that too since importing should be irrational when the country can produce the good without the transport costs.
A little more detail when I said "environment" I'm talking about three main factors:
1.) Government regulation creates such an overhead to entry that only giant companies or giant investments can even hope to enter the market.
2.) Government regulation is often subject to arbitrary authority of bureaucrats, which are avenues for corruption; rather than direct bribes as is common elsewhere the more common form in the US is for the regulatory agencies to swap employees back and forth with the oligopolies. They retain brand loyalty or show it so as to assure themselves a future career, and then they go online and brag that their wages have tripled despite covid and inflation. These are the "experts" that Double R trusts.

3.) Government steals money and pays huge amounts of it to government contracts, again gained by corruption more likely than not. Often this is the only choice to compete at all given that if your competitors are being paid $$$ for delivering less than you are they are going to win in the private (fair) market too since they can use that money to invest in their production chain as well as hire thousands of people whose job it is to pander to government nonsense (see #1).

This is what happened.
After Covid ended demand increased rapidly but foreign supply chains were slow to ramp up to pre-COVID levels of production.
Biden saw this and used it as an opportunity to create more microchip manufacturing in the United States using incentives.
The result was an end to the microchip shortage and thousands of new good paying jobs in red states.

No, it's because I have seen what happens with economic interventionism as indicated by those on the lower end of the economic freedom index. I am not sure why destroying meritocracy and creating economic interventionism like Venezuela and North Korea have done is a good thing.

We have no idea what the 100-year effects of such policies will be, but we know the 100-year effects of economic interventionist policies from 100 years ago and can see a lot of the negative consequences today. I wouldn't doubt there

Oh I see, you’re not convinced until you’ve been able to see the effects 100 years down the road. Perfectly reasonable
Considering the United States has the largest economy in the world with a GDP of over 20 trillion, it’s obvious things have worked out pretty well.

We have seen what Capitalism looks like without government intervention. It was called the Gilded Age and it included a cycle of booms and busts and a low standard of living for workers

We have already covered this. Things could be a lot better. Things are also terrible now. Go to any large blue city. We have tent cities, drug dens, and gang violence, meanwhile, red cities like Jupiter island Florida, or the 500 various mayberry-like cities in the country are virtual utopias.
For example prior to the great depression, health care was affordable but Roosevelt created wage caps which caused employers to offer insurance. Insurance insulated people from the prices and it allowed medical providers to guage people in a hidden way. It was also common at the time for doctors to take on 10-20 percent of patients pro bono but Roosevelt was the end of that. Basically prior to economic interventionism and industrialization, almost every single person in America was a small business owner with freedom.
So yes you definitely want to ensure that there is no unexpected events 100 years down the road. You want to avoid any possibility of anything negative as a result of the policy. I think it was Keynes who said that it is useless to focus on the short term unknown effects of policies when the long term effects had the potential to cause a disastrous chain reaction or butterfly effect.
Artificial booms and busts by unelected oligarchs are worse than grassroot booms and busts.
Tell that to people who are hungry. Grassroot boom and busts? Those are caused by the oligarchs like JP Morgan and Andrew Carnegie

We have seen what Capitalism looks like without government intervention. It was called the Gilded Age and it included a cycle of booms and busts and a low standard of living for workers
During the Gilded Age, the economy was not a free market. While there were scant elements of free-market capitalism, the period was also marked by significant government intervention, often shaped by the interests of the wealthy industrialists, known as "robber barons." These powerful businessmen frequently used their vast resources to influence crony government policies and regulations in their favor.
Robber barons purchased influence through political contributions, bribery, and by establishing close relationships with government officials. This allowed them to secure favorable regulations, subsidies, and tariffs that protected their monopolies and furthered their economic dominance. As a result, the market was skewed in favor of these large corporations, undermining true free-market competition.
So, while the Gilded Age had few elements of a free market, it was mainly characterized by significant cronyism, where the government often enacted policies that benefited the wealthy elite at the expense of fair competition and the broader public interest.

Wow, why do you say such displeasing facts?
Capitalists look at today's state regulated economies and think that they are looking at capitalism. Silly brains.

Yes, we should aim for better though. Actually we should aim for perfect since perfect policies can be objectively determined if one has studied philosophy for several years
