I don't think I can afford to prop up the wealthy any more than I already am doing now. Guess I'll need to get a fourth job to help pay off Musk and company tax relief.

This is nothing, wait until the Trump tariffs kick in and everything gets more expensive.

Can't wait for shitty plyboard furniture to be marked up 489% because we got to import them from China/Vietnam or other SE countries.

Like seriously, what even gets made in the US that is reasonably affordable and is of a decent quality.

While true, US guns aren't even on top anymore. Canik has become an unbelievably popular brand in recent years, and they're headquartered in Turkey.

damn I was unaware. guess I haven't done any gun shopping in a hot second (although that may change soon considering the way everything seems to be going in America lol)

you say prices will go up, all I can hear is it's going to become cheaper to steal.

[–] Serinus@lemmy.world 24 points 21 hours ago (2 children)

The price at which it becomes a felony won't charge. You'd have to do it in organized groups like the raids in LA a number of years ago.

Um, have you tried just not being poor?

[–] ignotum@lemmy.world 2 points 7 hours ago

Just take more xhits on xhitter, that's seems to be how Edolf makes his fortune

Who would have thought he would do the same thing he did in his first term again?

[–] Tja@programming.dev 99 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Less than half of the voters, apparently.

[–] Draces@lemmy.world 77 points 1 day ago (3 children)

Something tells me most of his voters have no idea what he did last time

Trump: "Hannibal Lecter is a fine man." jerks off two dicks

Trump supporters: "😍😍 He's gonna fix the economy and make America great again!"

[–] T00l_shed@lemmy.world 29 points 21 hours ago

They were all trying to figure out why Obama wasn't in the oval office for 9/11

Picture is incorrect. The bottom glass on the right should be cracking.

[–] RamenJunkie@lemmy.world 2 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

Bottom Glass on the Left. Cracking and potentially about to make it all topple over.

Nobody in the US knows how marginal rates and progressive tax brackets work, you can sell the fools on anything and just blame the IRS because it’s the most convenient incarnation of what people hate.

[–] RamenJunkie@lemmy.world 8 points 7 hours ago

It makes me angry when I see people talk about how getting a raise would be bad for them because it would put them in a new tax bracket.

Like dude, no, it won't be worse. Thats not how that works.
