You seem like a triggered uninformed a-hole. No girlfriend? Life got ya down? Go away and come back...the same sissy liberals are upset over the election. In real life, you are a sissy little wimp Congrats sir!
Very classy. Thank you for making the LRC message boards a better place. 🙄
right results is a conservacuck who humps trump, his cousin, his dog, etc. 🤣 You hit the nail on the head, he is a classless LOSER. Harris living rent free in his head all day!!
the DoGE web site now has its promised “receipts”. As expected it is not what was promised.
Just started reading it. So far my favorite is a page that compares the laws passed vs the Bureaucracy needed to put that law into action. And it compares the two based on the amount of words of the law vs the implementation.
Well no sh!t Sherlock! You need plenty of detail to implement a law across the country and to make it work. Yet Elon thinks he found some type of gotcha here.
No way they're net positive taxpayers though. I can't believe that (mostly) unskilled migrants pay more into systems than they take from it.
This is a question for which I don't have the answer. I've learned over the years that the undocumented contribute billions annually; one recent assessment here:
Obviously many of these folks are working on a cash basis, but others just as obviously have paycheck deductions for things like Social Security and Medicare that they'll never be able to touch.
So the question is, do these workers and their families end up being net beneficiaries or net contributors to the gummint(s)? And I don't know. Given that the undocumenteds' access to public services (other than public schools) is pretty limited, I suppose they might be net contributors. But I'm willing to be wrong about that. As linked above, there are pretty good sources for how much these folks contribute, but I haven't seen good sources for how much money (in government services) they receive.
Once again, taking the proverbial low-road. Imagine that!
Notably, you are the same person who I specifically engaged about having a civil conversation on this topic several days ago. You essentially refused, emphasizing that people on this message board "called (you) names" for months before the election, and although I wasn't one of them, apparently your PTSD is so strong that you don't care to hear what level-headed people want to say.
As I have said before, that says much more about you than it does about them.

You are not worth the effort for me to explain things in a post. You are not a man, you are a mouse. You'd never ever agree with anything that I post, nothing.
Trump bad, Harris good and you are always right, correct?
IF you were even remotely close to being a fair person, I'd respond to you with the utmost of respect. But...when I get called names, you get them right back spanky, every time.
You want fairness, earn it! Arrogance and BS gets you nowhere with me, nowhere. I can post just like you, no different. We disagree, let it go. You want answers, earn them.

Oh no! 2 down votes in 3 minutes, how will I sleep tonight? LOL!
See, that's the thing: Without proper papers they don't qualify for welfare. But they still have access to public schools, I believe, and government-funded emergency rooms. Whether what they receive fully offsets the nearly $100 billion that they contribute via taxes (taxes at all levels), I just don't know. Seems unlikely? but I really don't know and would love to get some legit sources for that.
Gary that cannot be right, and 60M extra recipients? Not even close to all of those 330M even are on SS. Calculations have to be redone if at all, sounds sketchy.
Okay, this is an example of what seems like a reasonable post to me. Do people make downvotes just based on the identity of the poster?
