Trump thread part 2 (Or anything else we want to talk about that's ridiculous in politics today)

[HempKat]

How many farmers do you know ?

I don't know, quite a few, I don't keep a record.

 

[zachrockbadenof]

I'm talking specifically new subsidies that were instituted during the Trump trade wars where China stopped taking orders for crops (mostly soybean and corn) cauding much of the crops meant for China to go to waste.

Do you remember the wealth trickling down?

the trickle has stopped...

Let me guess, all of them are broke now ? I personally never met a poor farmer

 

[zachrockbadenof]

Funny, I was given on of those cards when I got my first and only round of vaccinations and never once was asked by anyone to show it.

i got i think '4' of the 'vaccines' ... still have gotten covid '3' times...BUT during the mask mandate which now they say didn't do dick, i remember that the flu was almost non-ex...

 

[zachrockbadenof]

it's not really a mandate if you can just choose to ignore it.

and lose your job

for the amount of time/effort/sweat . they shouldn't be poor... most work their balls off , unless they are transiting

I agree. I just think it’s funny how people cry farmers are broke but they all do very well lol

Well first of all, around here when someone says farmer they're not talking about people that raise beef, we call those ranchers. Second the Biden Administration doesn't control beef prices.

When you’re captain of the ship and set policy, it’s actions are on you.


Exactly what does Biden control? Let me guess, nothing that’s doing poorly.

 

[eastcoastjoe]

If they did it was because they made the choice to not get the vaccine

That’s called a mandate buddy

 

[eastcoastjoe]

Where is your proof on this? Again I don't know how it was where you are but vaccines for Covid-19 were never mandated where I am.

They sure were. You are confused

You remind me of someone. Are you Rob Roy from RIU?

That fuckin' know it all? Yeah, it's me. Got cast out in one of their purges. People here seem much nicer. Good to see ya!

 

[Captain Red Eye]

wow @Captain Red Eye is logical as fuck today

Thanks.

If Biden wre abl to set prices on what meat packers produced and distributed then that would me the government owns the business, which just isn't the case in a capitalist society. What Biden or any President controls is how the laws that Congress estabilishes are enforced. Didn't they teach civics where you went to school?

The President is both the head of state and head of government of the United States of America, as well as Commander-in-Chief of the armed forces. Under Article II of the Constitution, the President is responsible for the execution and enforcement of laws created by Congress.

No that's called freedom of choice

No, I'm in the private sector, I was never forced to do anything I didn't want to do. Neither were any of the people that your link applied to. If you read thru it you'll find that people who didn't get the shot were first given trainning/counseling on the vaccine and why it was necessary. After that only then is the
Federal agency in question able to terminate the person. Even then termination is just one of several disciplinary actions the agency might take.

Just like all the healthcare workers who were fired. Cool story

Just like all the healthcare workers who were fired. Cool story

And rightfully they were, my wife died from the corona virus while being hospitalized in a sealed ICU room where she was placed to recover from a surgery she underwent during the pandemic. She wasn't allowed visitors and nobody was allowed to enter the room without first having to put on protective gear. Unfortunately for my wife she had a nurse at one point who caught the virus but instead of staying at home until she recovered as was the hospital's policy she came into work because she need the money and could afford to be sick. Had she been forced to take the vaccination or fired if she didn't my wife would likely still be alive today. So if you're expecting me to have any sympathy for people that only think of their own wants and needs without regards for how it might impact others they come into contact with, then you're barking up the wrong tree.
