Numbnuts here doesn’t seem to understand that Progressives are all about redistribution of wealth and redistribution of misery. Obama in the WH for 8 years didn’t help, but Seattle politicians have played their part at the local level.
Litter and graffiti?? Well, some people live in crappy neighborhoods — and that’s why YOUR neighborhood now deserves to have litter and graffiti.
Homelessness? Crazy people on your sidewalk? Well, some people are living in the nightmare world of madness — that’s why YOU have to live in their nightmare world of madness.
Liberals are NOT about raising the downtrodden up out of the mire.
Liberals are about pushing the productive people down into the mire.
Equal Outcomes, man. No one said it was going to be pretty.
One of the comments:
“Left the US a decade ago.... because of people just like Alex. Nasty, awful selfish people who peddle their ‘compassion’ as they want to see the indigent rounded up and locked away. I have lived all over the US and in several places in the world, and the US is clearly in permanent decline. Why? The Church of Capitalism has been a cancer on the country and mankind. People like Alex in one breath complain how both their property values go down because of the homeless, but that it’s also too expensive to buy property and live in Seattle.... Well, which is it? Because these are mutually exclusive points.
There is no ‘upper class, middle class and lower class’. There is in a Capitalist economy, only a Capital Class that owns the means of production and distribution, or the Labor Class that does all of the work and pays all of the taxes. That’s it. Alex is clearly Labor, but has so successfully internalized the values of his Capitalist Masters that he doesn’t understand his real place in society... to harass poorer people in his own class.
Want to improve things? Raise taxes to 99.99% on all wealth over 1 million and redistribute it back. End the Pentagon corporate welfare/jobs program scheme and spend the taxes on the tax payers. Jettison vile third world terror states like Israel and manage internal problems.
This is not Democrat v Republican, this is Humans v Antihumans.”
I’m glad this person left the U.S. or so she says. Many more like her still here.
