Phi for All

He can't change the Constitution with executive order. He lied about being able to. Please, PLEASE learn more or stop looking at the news. You'll find no hope there.

According to Project 2025, they'll be diluting the efficiency of those funds by bringing in "private sector input", which simply means middlemen looking to profit from your benefits. They don't need to "axe" them to make them less than they need to be.

Outside of TFG's energy policy, he plans on cutting Medicaid and disability programs. Project 2025 plans on putting the disabled into institutions, like they did in the 50s. I'm a step ahead of a wheelchair myself, and we'll get no love from this administration. OTOH, you won't be in the community anymore, so they'll take your car away since you won't need it. Energy problem solved! I do worry what these institutions will be like without the protections of the ACA, should he be able to strip that away from Americans. And of course, students with disabilities are going to suffer too. There are going to be massive cuts to all non-defense programs, really. I sure wish we could have gotten you some bus service in your area. Hopefully, the Biden Infrastructure funding did some good in your part of Iowa.

He is, you're right. Asked and answered.

So read and learn. Nobody here wants to discuss bullshit lies he can't pull off, it's counterproductive and just confuses people who don't read enough.

You CAN'T be that obtuse, I refuse to believe anyone can! "I love the poorly educated!" -- TFG

The GOP has worked hard to keep Americans ignorant and uneducated, especially about oil and gas production. Few average citizens understand it and I think the Republicans count on that. Did the price of gas come down when US companies were fracking shale at home? I didn't see it. Why doesn't it "strengthen the American economy" to refine oil from other countries? Our refineries still get paid, still make a profit. I think a lot of the GOP stance on renewable energy is because they never want to admit they did the wrong thing and now have to fix it. Climate change, racism, sexism, these are all things Republicans don't want to acknowledge as the fault of humanity.

I think you're in denial. This is a blatant "No True Scotsman" fallacy. Does it matter if white Christian Nationalists in the US understand the religion they pretend to follow? No. They just want all the people of color who don't believe in their white Jesus to go away. It's not the modern world who removed Christian values, it's the white Christian Nationalists.

A distinction without a difference. I'll say it a different way. Sexism and misogyny, in the context you're talking about, are the exact same thing.

! Moderator Note We don't discuss creationism here. It's been shown that it's a waste of time. All of these points have been refuted over and over again. Don't bring this up again, anywhere on this site. You've already wasted SO much time you could have spent studying science instead of criticizing from ignorance.

You're just the type of person TFG likes to rile up. He passes an executive order that's essentially meaningless to remove the 14th amendment. Why should we discuss that? That's not how it works. He's flooding the zone with shit like he always does. Ignore the drama.

Misogyny is just a more overt sexism. TFG fits all those definitions, including rapist, felon, traitor, and criminal.

An attempt to allow all people to be in on discussions to make a better world. Much of America thinks white Christians have more rights than anyone else.

The increasing need to make more profit comes at a cost to many so a few can benefit. In the US, we only have so much money to spend on healthcare, and too much of it goes to unnecessary companies like health insurers and medical device suppliers and pharmacy benefit managers. They get paid well to do absolutely nothing but leech off the system, and our health suffers for it. Is that pain and suffering enough for you?

We, as in humans?
