2024 ELECTION THREAD
The next presidential race will be here soon! Please see current Bovada odds. Thoughts?
the bottom third sucks the top third dry.
you want to claim importing random ppl is going not to be a burden, you have to show your numbers and no, a person employing your guys at 12 per hour and being happy doing that isn't enough
lol yeah. People at the top are hurting so much. You should see the conditions of some of the yachts at my club.
Just a coincidence you only care about the tax burden of Haitian migrants. It’s economic anxiety I’m sure. :p
uh? I am talking Haitians as that's the talk du jour so data is freshly available, the same applies to everyone and in the UK similar considerations were used to kick away very white eastern Europeans (but then they imported even poorer Asians so it wasn't very smart of a choice).
and the same is true within countries to decide to try secede (Catalonia ) or to ask for lower inter regional transfers, like when northern Italy tried to reduce the amount of money we send to genetically indistinguishable Italians in the center south.
it's not even "anxiety", it is just selfish rationalism.
and btw importing poor people whose children will be citizens means importing leftwing voters so hell no (with few exceptions: importing people fleeijg communist countries is a net positive for the opposite reason).
lol yeah. People at the top are hurting so much. You should see the conditions of some of the yachts at my club.
people in the top5 are doing more than fine but people ranked 15 to 30 (1= richest) are doing far worse than they otherwise would if they didn't have to feed so many other mouths.
the 120-160k per year double income households are being eaten alive
admit it's charity and when other people say "well I don't think it's proper to do so much charity especially to non americans" accept that's not a fringe thing, rather a very normal conversation which should be had on the reality of state sponsored charity.
It’s as much charity as letting Trump supporters or JD Vance’s parents breed. I don’t consider basic human rights and freedom of movement charity.
So your ideal is to use deported people as prison labor in a penal colony? You want to bring back colonialism or something and this is going to be a moral thing that won’t cause any economic issues given the new global order?

I think that the vast majority of people don’t have the same attitude of you of wanting to secede from a country because you pay more in taxes, and that it’s a very poor understanding of how countries work.
Also to your first point, I think oftentimes we run into a situation where people only care about immigration from countries with certain skin colors. That’s how it works in the US. I’ve never heard complaints about British and French people coming over to steal our good jobs.
because British and french people who come into the USA these days are all educated with very good job prospects (btw many of them aren't white).
while white passing Italians, and white Irish, were heavily discriminated against because they were poor, engaged in crime a lot and so on, and we're catholic which at the time was an "inimical religion" to the majority.
So will see if Mr Pro union president orders the port workers back to work just like he screwed over the train workers .
Jimmy Carter first president ever to live to a 100 a great man Happy Birthday Jimmy
Coach Walz vs Couch Vance tonight
Who's ready?

But who’s Going to do the lower jobs?
We do need people to fil up those jobs right?
And the natives do not seem interested of doing those lower jobs so what’s your solution ?
people in the top5 are doing more than fine but people ranked 15 to 30 (1= richest) are doing far worse than they otherwise would if they didn't have to feed so many other mouths.
the 120-160k per year double income households are being eaten alive
So u are for deportation only lower incomes citizens?
So you seem to agree that all should be submit to deportation not just immigrants ?
How you chose a country to deported a born Americans ?
And why the host country would accept him if the US dont think is valuable enough to keep him ?
Furthermore let’s say your definition is solely based on criminality ?
So you would rather deported them free to another country and not pay for its crime ?
So I should try to steal 1 or 2 millions (through, fraud, bank robbery ,w.e) and if I get caught , I wouldn’t do time (or very small) and be deported to a another country free of charge ?
What about a brutal crimes , killing or terrorism ?
I get deported and still i can do terrorism vs the US from another country ?
And again why those countries would accept people like these ?
Ps: be careful what you wish for by allowing deportation to anyone .
U might fall victim from it .
Imagine being wrongly convicted and be forced to be deported from your Italy ?
And even if your definition of bad (which still lacking ) would be appropriate for you today , it might not be appropriate later on and you could/would be under its threat by a « far left Marxism communist policies » …
I predict the right will claim Vance won the debate, and the left will claim Walz won the debate
I predict the right will claim Vance won the debate, and the left will claim Walz won the debate
This is the one format Vance might actually be good at - scripted lines without having to awkwardly deal with human beings in real-life situations. And one where Walz may be at a disadvantage. I have no idea who will fare better tonight. Will be interesting for sure.
I predict the right will claim Vance won the debate, and the left will claim Walz won the debate
Yes of course. But what will Ipsos say?
This market will resolve to "Walz" if the first relevant opinion poll released by Ipsos after the debate indicates Tim Walz won this debate against JD Vance. This market will resolve to "Vance" if the first relevant opinion poll released by Ipsos after the debate indicates JD Vance won. If the results are tied, this market will resolve 50-50.
I must admit that was a great nickname conservatives came up with - it reminded female voters about where the Republican party stands regarding women and agency over their own bodies. Another goal for the other team.
I legit thought they'd realized how badly this one backfired and gave up on it. I guess lozen didn't get the memo.
Incredibly, giving the management of party operations to relatives and sycophants of Trump didn't work out optimally

Republicans are starting to raise alarms about Trump’s ground game
“They are out-matching us in money, in enthusiasm and in the ground game,” one Michigan-based GOP strategist said.

Given the disorganized incapacity shown by Trump GOP, it's incredible that Harris is still only a coin flip to win; how terrible of a candidate do you need to be not to be crushing Trump in polls with a lot more money, more people on the ground knocking at doors, a good economy and incumbency?

Maybe if either Kamala or Tim actually talked to the voters and did more than a handful of interviews.
Trumps doing everything to hand them the election

How bad of a candidate do you need to be to the fait accompli winner three months before the election and then slightly behind 2 months before the election?
