I love it when people now express their excitement they no longer will have to experience Trump's tweets.

But these same hate filled people crave Donald Trump - like they want to snort a fat line of white powder. People look at me strange when I remind them they weren't obligated to read 4 years of Trump tweets. Trump haters are some of his most loyal followers, right?

uh... we didn't crave it. if there's a wasp in the room, you'd rather prefer to know where the hell it is and what it's up to. it's the same concept, only in this case it's not a room but a jail cell you're trapped in with it and you're not allowed to kill the wasp.

when there's a madman ruling the country, the absolute last thing you want to do is... not know what the fuck he and his administration are doing.

Yeah idk.

Just so we're clear. Idk much about politics or anything else for that matter.

We all probably want most of the same things and just have different ideas on how to get there.

Or maybe not.

Who knows.

Thats it

Theres a lot of places hiring too



The places hiring are paying low.  If you have to go work for Amazon or host Walmart Christmas death fest then respect, but I cannot for a second talk shit about anyone taking back some tax dollars instead of that.

Who else is hiring now other than profiteers?

Trump is just a symptom of the disease, but yeah of course he's funny in his own way.  When the reality is so bad laughing at a clown is better than trying to laugh at how bad things really are.

Tons of jobs in all sectors it looks like. Far as i can tell. I only ever search for trades.

I guess i understand not wanting or being able to take a wage below your living standards but at the same time, i guess thats a luxury.

Hope people in that position are enjoying.

Maybe they earned it i guess? Idk.

Meanwhile ill be working just like i did the entire last pandemic for less than that $600. Not to mention the benefits on top of that.

Trump is not the symptom. He’s the opportunistic infection. We’ll be a lot healthier even if the country is still infected with MAGAIDS when he’s gone.

The $600 has ended thankfully because that shit was just unfair. And honestly, most unemployed people aren't fit for trades.

With all respect, I stand by there being a degenerative disease afflicting the US.  People were primed for Trump and in the grand scheme he was inert. The scary thing is definitely someone that harnesses this dying monster effectively.

It's sadly just true, a few people do the hard work unappreciated that's just the way of life. I'm all for giving people breaks but when I'm working 60 hours every week coming home dead yeah I resent someone getting paid more to sit home doing nothing. If that's snobbish, so be it.

There are definitely jobs for people that want to work, but lots of people can't handle it. I would rather just pay for them to sit home or live their dreams, but that's not where my tax dollars are going. I'm paying for the largest military in human history and for corporations to overtake the world. If you think that Joe biden is not more into that than Trump I'd say you're kidding yourself. Trump is an asshole and totally fucked but at least not a career politician in America like Biden.

I reckon our leaders arent the epitome of what leaders are meant to be

excuse me, but it's not true at all. in case you forgot, much of america works on minimum wage or close to it, and a lot of those jobs are things like customer service jobs or other jobs closed due to the pandemic. they work 60 hours or more a week too, having to work multiple jobs just to make ends meet. they come home dead tired too normally. hell, i'm still working because i work at a grocery store, and i get paid minimum wage, and i resent the fact that the government saw fit to give 600$ a week to people on unemployment, but not to people like us who are "essential workers."

but i don't blame the workers who got a lucky break. i blame the fucking welfare queens in government. because those people who are "sitting on their ass" are better off at home and getting a break for the first time in their lives on a looooong time.

i'm not sure why we're supposed to see anything good in the comparison in trump not being a career politician. a rabid animal is also not a career politician, but i sure as hell am not going to make it an elected official over a career politician.

Yeah I just have to do it, as much as it sucks.

Id probably take less and still feel good but giving unemployed 100% plus $600/wk is so insane i can only think it was intentional to drive a wedge between workers and the unemployed.

We didn't create that divide and anyone willing to work a trade im definitely not saying you can't.

I mean yeah, I prefer my money going to anyone suffering in any way over the way the government tends to spend it, just to keep things in perspective.

Joe Biden fucking sucks, and is closer to the heart of the disease, sorry it's just true.

Imagine thinking it’s so unfair that some desperate people got one fucking break.

The reason it was done is because states couldn’t be relied on to make sure their citizen got what they needed.

Not all states give 100%. Some states are very stingy.

It is unfair getting paid more to not work than I do to work. You could just say I deserve something extra too but you insist on taking this angle.
