The NY Times doesn’t usually promote alt-right or fringe voices. He is a frequent contributor and a professor at Columbia. I doubt the NYT or Columbia would entertain anyone in the same spectrum as David Duke.Yes, Mark Lilla :
I really value his concern.
Right, but my point is that why do you willfully choose to shun the party that wants to give you a job and work while championing the one that encourages you not to work and take a handout.At best, job growth is on a par with the last 4 years of the Obama admin-
How about that kick to the nuts when the ownership society collapsed... Baby! Guys like Mnuchin really got fat off of that, didn't they?
Except minority unemployment rates are at all time lows under Trump. What did obama do for them? Not as much. So why are you still voting Democrat? What are they giving you besides a welfare check in exchange for your vote? Why do you want free handouts (assuming you subscribe to democratic socialism) over a good honest day's work?Job openings have been trending up since 6 months into Obama's first term.
Strongman Trump didn't unify anything, he lost the popular vote by 3 million votes. He won because the electoral college allocates votes based on winner-take-all in most states, meaning that winning 50.000001 of a state means you win all of the states' votes.
And just hand-waving away the fact that conservatism isn't relevant for minority groups who have employment but want the same rights as everyone else, only have the Democratic party to join as a political tool. Identity is far less important for the Democratic party, who accepts everyone, even white Christian men.
Since when did the Democrats encouraged people not to work and live on handouts?Right, but my point is that why do you willfully choose to shun the party that wants to give you a job and work while championing the one that encourages you not to work and take a handout.
Minority unemployment has been falling since 6 months into Obama's first term. Trump did nothing. That said, there may be some minority farmers who need handouts from the government because of Strongman Trump's tariffs.Except minority unemployment rates are at all time lows under Trump.

Have you seen Ocasio-Cortez' wishlist? What about Stockton CA's handout experiment? Which party has the most people on food stamps?Since when did the Democrats encouraged people not to work and live on handouts?

I could be wrong but I'm not seeing the Repubs talking about or implementing or promising communist ideas like this. Food stamps may not be the best metric but it gives you an idea of the mindset of the Dems. I would rather die than take food stamps but that's just me.

Why would you willing stave yourself if you do need the food stamps? That doen't make any sense at all.Have you seen Ocasio-Cortez' wishlist? What about Stockton CA's handout experiment? Which party has the most people on food stamps?

My children could probably squat more than you if we're being honest! To your chagrin, Darwin didn't get me. Oh, plus my little sis is going to have a kid next year. We gonna rule the world.And your children, too?
Sure sounds like it.Probably because he's never missed a meal in his life.

No, I'd dig up worms and eat them before taking food stamps. I'd take out a loan until I could get a job before taking food stamps. I'd dumpster dive before taking food stamps. I've lived in conditions that would probably break you which includes no heat or food or electric in the winter for 6 months. Cold water was the only thing we had, and cold showers in a freezing house builds character quick. For food I used min wage money to buy PB&J and white rice. That's it, the rest went to rent and tuition.Why would you willing stave yourself if you do need the food stamps? That doen't make any sense at all.
That is being foolish to the extreme. in particularly borrowing money to meet basic needs.No, I'd dig up worms and eat them before taking food stamps.

Handouts create complacency, a wise man once said. I aim to stay razor sharp at all times and food stamps would make me feel dirty. I'm a strong young man, you'll find no excuses from me.That is being foolish to the extreme. in particularly borrowing money to meet basic needs.
So you are too proud to accept temporary help when you need it? There is no shame in using Welfare if you hit hard times, that is what it is for.Handouts create complacency, a wise man once said.

I see no reason for someone who lives in a first world country to do without the basic necessities of life. This why we pay taxes in order to promote the general welfare.Wow, you lived as a poor student for a while. Cold showers, so tough, so persecuted. On the other hand, I’m pretty sure that guy has been homeless before. You sound like a foot in your mouth dolt as usual.

I'm neither a slacker nor someone who is addicted to drugs. Quit projecting.Sure, but you're a slacker who's automatically a drug addict and doesn't want better for yourself, it's called winning.

True, but with unemployment at an all-time low there's really no excuse not to work. Hell, even my homeless relative who lives out of a car is working now and went off his disability money. I would agree with you if the unemployment rate was 8% or higher. Under 4%? Come on. Maybe go on it until you find a job if you live in an area that doesn't have many. Otherwise there's no excuses if you live near a major city.So you are too proud to accept temporary help when you need it?
