The military is made of people like you and me, who decided to defend our country when they thought it was in danger. I'm not just talking about the US Armed Forces, I'm also talking about these private, paramilitary organizations that we outsourced our wars to anyway. Furthermore, how fucking condescending is it on behalf of "progressives" to presume if our lives and liberties were actually truthfully endangered by any one that, we wouldn't form a militia? They must not have paid attention to Virginia. Government air travel fucking sucks lmfaoo, imagine telling a pro capitalism right winger that demsoc ideas are ok bc government runs some airports. Delta and Southwest might not be perfect, but at least they have a supply/demand curve to adhere to. Next: I'm ok with privatizing roads. We already pay for them. Some private roads even offer subscriptions so you don't have to fuck yourself in a toll every time. That said, they'd likely still expect drivers to exhibit competency preemptively, and have patrol men keeping the ways safe. They have a bottom line to protect. The government puts fluoride in your oh so wonderful public water that it pumps from your waterways and sewers and still charges out the ass for, whereas companies that sell water bottles capitalize on that by not poisoning the people who pay for their products. Forgive me if I think I trust people who actually have to satisfy customers to continue their existence in the market. Funny thing about public schools is thst they suck, too 😂 There's also an inherent flaw in the notion that the government just knows what basic skillsets everyone needs to succeed therefore they should be the only ones structuring and offering curricula around that. The flaw is that it's condescending to make that presumption; especially since with the rise and fall off common core, it was proven explicitly untrue. Do you mean to fucking tell me demsocs support big bank bailouts? Name one person who wasn't a banker, a rich person...
