It should be, but Americans still dont want universal healthcare. The last polling I saw had it at just over 50% supporting Universal healthcare. If you want to implement a huge change like universal healthcare you probably want to have at least 70% of the people on board. Otherwise you implement it and half the country tries to drag it down and make it unusable. Look at how the right wing in the UK is trying to destroy their national healthcare system.

Its ending under trump. The 1 year of significantly boosted CTC was government assistance given to people. The right wing version of that would have been tax cuts for business. Could he have passed legislation that kept ctc at that amount, probably not and it would likely be repealed by Trump. Just because something could be better doesn’t mean it isn’t good. If you use “it could be better” as an justification for something being bad then people can say the same thing about things you mention. Oh yeah he passed boosted CTC forever well he should have increased it more, he should have given to to all families, he should just give that money to everyone. Lets be realistic instead of delusional so things in the real world can actually get better.

Yeah, Trump really was the better option for Gaza. Palestinians are so lucky to brave supporters like you fighting the American left and Israeli left on their behalf. Remember its the thought that counts, not the outcomes.

Yes but the rest are pointless since saying they passed a ton of left wing legislation isnt countered by listing random events that they didnt do.

We can go through all the events if you want. Schedule F was removed via EO on day 3 by biden and two house bills were drafted, one to remove the Schedule F workers that were classified and after that failed another was drafted to try and protect the workers who were reclassified by trump.

Packing the court out of retaliation is bad and every attempt in recent history has failed and I cant be fucked researching 'stuffing the postal board of governors" so you can have that. Dam I guess dems passed no left wing policy because they didnt stuff the postal board of governors.

If you don’t like that party isnt 100% behind every single thing then the thing to do is focus on getting candiates you like in the states that have shit dems instead of trying to sink the entire party. If you sink the entire party you dont end up with more left wing legislation you end up with more right wing legislation.

The options you then present are basically “Every option is shit, vote for this option that doesnt exist and is unpopular with majority of the country”

child tax credit only lasted one year

not true at all

the cost reduction was only for the elderly

Not true and even if it was 100% elderly people it is still a bill that grants significantly cheaper drugs for 65million people of a demographic that is the most in need of perscription medication. Which is a objectively a good bill and furthers left wing ideals. If you dont agree I genuinely dont believe you are on the left since you actively want a worse world.

Are you getting your info from google AI summaries, im genuinely curious how you are so confidently wrong.

Of course im aware its the largest item its category once you filter spending into categories that specifically remove welfare and debt spending. Discretionary spending specifically is a small part of government expenditure so trying to pass the top item off as the largest expenditure by the government is misleading.

Skimming through the rest of your comment I can see i was right to ignore it since pretty much everything is wrong. Military industrial complex doesnt exist, majority of rich nations have debt, US has “free” healthcare its just worse than non existent, plenty of countries have “large” homeless populations and lastly yes a lot of countries have billionaires.

None of this is a capitalism problem. Its all the fault of poor governance. Given the track record of american leadership they would be in a far worse spot if they were at the mercy of their government for everything. Right now we see their government actively trying to destroy them.

I said left not commie.

Is significantly reducing the cost of life saving medicine and giving families $300 a month per kid not left wing policy?

You’re either incredibly uninformed or purposely undermining the left I can’t tell which.

Stop with this braindead serve the elites meme. Dems last admin passed tons of left wing legislation that benefited everyone.

Isreal would be fine without american support. The reason the get support is because its mutually beneficial.

Calling either a puppet is taking agency away from their decisions. They consciously choose their paths without any pressure.

Time to start a Lemmy /soy/ community /j

Today I booted my work laptop to be greeted with a fucken ad glazing AI and trying to tell me its the future. Its junk microsoft and you cannot convince me otherwise.

Cradle of filth - nymphetamine

The female vocals are amazing and beauty and the beast dynamic is done perfectly.

To me his message is closer to “you’re a useless piece of shit, but i will help you become the strong man that women love. If you listen to me and work hard you will have a family and be happy. Fuck the world and society they lie about what you need to do to keep you docile and weak.”

He also has a lot of stuff about embracing all the masculine traits that society hates like aggression and psychopathy. Then just general unhinged statements that contradict his core message and no one notices because cult

They mean billionaire middleclass.

Positive praise until trump is out of office then arrest.

Those teeth look really strange. How can it chew with those?

If you wanted to make a thread on Unix porn we could share some easy configs for each distro.

But most configs are distro agnostic so it would pretty much just be a config for each desktop environment. Which means it’s basically the same as every Unix porn post.

I think to separate linux beauty from Unix porn Linux beauty could show the beauty of Linux by show casing workflows and nice features instead of being a screenshot of a terminal with fetch. To me the beauty of Linux is navigating through different workspaces, making your computer perfectly tailored to your workflow. Unique setups are the beauty of Linux.

then why is the american military the largest expenditure by the US government?

Its not and the fact you couldnt even do basic research to prevent parroting an obviously incorrect fact is shocking. Like I said before, your analysis is vibes based not reality based.

Could you take it to a local repair shop and see if they can order a new part and do the soldering for you?
