Keep voting Dole/HW/W. Don’t mind the decaying inner city. Don’t mind the government reeducation camps. Don’t mind the destruction of Western Christian civilization. Don’t mind the cuckolding of the white male. Just keep voting R and take that second mortgage out on the home for a trip to Disney land. Real estate always increases in value, right? Nothing could go wrong using your home as an ATM!
I love my millennials. I have two here. They are great guys. It is sad that this wonderful generation (many of whom are fighting for us all over the world) is suffering with such a poor economy and political correctness, which harms millennials of all races and genders. They are starting out in life with hope and there isn’t much to be had.
We’ve been lied to and used for too long.
You think Christopher Columbus was a Founder?
The management of this site agrees with your points! Not sure why you have encountered such ignorance in this discussion. I suggest you start a new thread where you might encounter some _smarter_ conservatives and nationalists.
ditto!
Everyone’s opinion has worth.
You nailed it.
My crazy liberal ex-girlfriend was of this mindset.
And I would ask her, “So, Hitlers opinion on Jews was valid?”
She would reply, “No, that is different”
And ask her, “Margaret Sanger’s beliefs about inferior people?”
She would reply, “You’re an Asshole”
These people are literally insane.
Let’s not pick a stupid argument. You get my point.
Big government is breaking up our families, maybe we are just going back to what works - sticking together.
My family all stayed close to each other, and they’re all crazy and hate each other.
It’s probably going to take a lot of hardship for US society to get on track — if it ever does.
For my part, I would just like to see a split into at least two nations. Let the leftists live with their own policies and philosophies.
Probably not as crazy overall as welfare felon crack addicts and islamists.
That's not the America I grew up in. But it is now your reality. In my youth, government got by easily with 4 percent sales tax. Now it's almost 10 percent sales tax (actually 9.75 where I am). Wait a minute, people are spending more, a lot more, and 10 percent isn't cutting it where 4 percent once did? There were fewer fees and other hidden taxes, now they're everywhere on your utilities, tires, electronics, you name it they are extra taxes that didn't exist earlier.
In my youth, my dad raised 5 kids, bought a home on $100 down, my mom didn't have to work but held temp jobs here and there for extra money, we had a couple cars, and my dad barely hit $10,000 a year salary before he passed away. Try raising 5 kids now on a single low-paid blue-collar job. Parking meters were infrequent, and cost pennies per hour. Traffic tickets weren't much more than $15. Movie tickets were a quarter and featured two movies for one ticket. Gasoline was 22 cents a gallon. Candy bars were 5 cents, and giant candy bars were 10 to 25 cents.
This wasn't a century ago, it was over 50 years ago. Living was affordable on a shoestring budget. Then the socialists went crazy taxing the crap out of everything and created a nanny state with "freebies". A major reset is in order, until then more painful increases in taxes are coming. That's America under Hillary.
Really? Have you checked the reproduction rates of millennials with college degrees? Perhaps that should be your next research topics.
Now, our brown friends from the third world have no problem pumping out a half dozen kids in 10 years. Uncle Sam will make sure they having housing, food, gigantic tax returns, etc. You know what a kid for me means? I’ll let you guess.
Agree on all points. But it was before HW and Clinton and W decided to sell our souls for free trade, nation building and the race to the bottom economy. That gave us an internationalist like Obama. But, oh well. At least the Baltic countries can sleep well knowing they have NATO (American) protection for the big bad Russian, and the Chinese communist elites can send their kids to LA, SF, and Seattle for 100K shopping sprees and bottle service. God Bless America.
That is so sad. Not arguing with you. In my day, getting married was the best thing that happened for both of us. She being 21, I was 23. We built a life together, better as a team than individuals, bettering each other, psychologically boosting each other that we could accomplish anything. We started out poor with nothing, from poor families that could offer us nothing, so we faced life on our own (together for 4 years right out of high school before getting married). I probably wouldn't have become successful without my wife, and vice versa. Now we're retired grandparents living the good life.
I wish more young people would try to build a life together from nothing rather than apart while wishing for a prince or princess to to come along.
You contradict yourself: you've already been ripped off (you say as much) and you know it.
To demand restitution from those who did you no wrong is unjust and only makes them into victims.
I am glad you have had a great marriage, but it’s different now. The problem is that women are inundated with divorce porn (Romance novels/romance movie, Fireproof, etc.) They have unrealistic expectations regarding what a man is and how the day-to-day toils of a relationship go. They think that any time things don’t go 100% their way, they partner does not care about them or is being emotionally neglectful.
On the other hand, to be fair, men are so far buried in internet porn that they think that a wife is supposed to do all of the vile things they watch on the internet to sexually satisfy them. So you get two unrealistic expectations regarding what marriage should be.
So, why should the man marry? He can be sexually gratified via internet porn and casual sex. Why should he put up with the nagging and drama. As for the woman? Nothing will ever satisfy her. She sees in every sitcom that the man is some blabbering idiot that has to be bailed out by the woman. So why should she deal with that?
