I sure as shit wouldn't feel comfortable giving my tax money to some druggie in nowhereville KY

The point you asked for was does it ever work? It does work, does it always work? No. Probably fails more than works.

But it can work.

I don't think your example is even remotely relevant to a discussion of government-enforced dysgenic redistribution

It was only relevant to the question you asked.

<:PeepoWeird:684862716430647319>

I don't think you understood my question then

🧑

I was asking if there was ever an example of mass redistribution of wealth by the government uplifting an underclass out of poverty

(there isn't)

Oooooh, so you were asking about uplifting an entire class of people.

Well seeing how communism has never been successful. No

what the fuck else would be the point of giving an entire class of people money

if it's not to help the entire class of people

Why would you do that?

idk you seemed to be the one proposing it

> I am of the mind though, that the amount of money we put into trying to up lift inner cities would have a drastically different and more successful result if we put it into the appalachians or the midwest.

Did I? I thought I was talking about a geographic poverty, not class poverty.

Uplifting geographic poverty seems far more feasible than class poverty.

what does that even mean

Putting wealth into an area decreases poverty, but maintains class structure.

yes but what does that look like practically

Id say the difference between countries, states, counties, and cities. When it comes to examples of it in play. Trade, tariffs, geopolitical wars and alliances. Taxes, public works, subsidized buisnesses, market manipulation/regulation, etc.

In a way, cities leach wealth out of the rural parts of the country. Based resources are harvested in the boonies, manufacture in manufacturing towns and traded in metropolitan mega cities.

What are we talking about?

Their favorite parts of siege

Idk, the movie 3 signs in Missouri

idk this conversation is meandering aimlessly based on that shitty movie about le dumb hicks

I fucking hate hollywood

Yeah. Still a good movie.

But it is pretty anti white.

Understanable, But honestly if you hate the movie don't critque it or bring attention towards it......

Hollywood is anti white propoganda

I trust the people on this server not to fall for Hollywood tricks.

well my point was that even the so-called good points lima is bringing up about the movie are still dumb

the entire thing is pozzed and elitist in a distinctly post-modern urbanite way

Alright, Still my point stands. Stop feeding Hollywood by giving these meaningless movies critque, As it brings more attention towards the movie you think is dumb.

Or we can enjoy discussing modern culture with like minded people.

Modern culture is degenerating society

Yes

So why should we discuss it?
