Making me pay for some other fuck to look after her would have been wrong on so many different levels

2019-01-11 01:10:27 UTC  

The focus seems to have gone from the phrase itself and onto just welfare

2019-01-11 01:10:40 UTC  

And nah, see, that’s one of the things I don’t like about Shapiro as well

2019-01-11 01:11:11 UTC  

You mean like siphoning off 95% for other things?

2019-01-11 01:11:30 UTC  

His talk of moving to find jobs because free market doesn’t really stick when he himself admits living close to his parents and in-laws provide substantial benefit that can’t be measured on a simple cost/benefit scale

2019-01-11 01:12:03 UTC  

Rather substantial blind spot

2019-01-11 01:12:27 UTC  

Wrong level of economic analysis he has, pontificate he should avoid...

2019-01-11 01:12:55 UTC  

And considering a lot of people do the opposite, ie, move and then bring their relatives with them, it definitely provides a level of support and some other benefit that simply cannot be seen through an economic lens

2019-01-11 01:13:23 UTC  

His insistence on “move because there are jobs and you would perform economically better” is missing the forest for the trees

2019-01-11 01:14:02 UTC  

It can. Just adjust the focus on your scope. And see all the bits. He’s not an engineer nor scientist

2019-01-11 01:14:24 UTC  

You reckon?

2019-01-11 01:14:41 UTC  

Yup, been there, done that;)

2019-01-11 01:14:46 UTC  

Cause I think the benefits are something that only be measured on a communal or an emotional sense here

2019-01-11 01:14:51 UTC  

Not economical

2019-01-11 01:15:01 UTC  

That can*

2019-01-11 01:15:36 UTC  

It can. Which is why things like delivery works as a business

2019-01-11 01:15:45 UTC  

And I guess if you were to put a dollar value on someone going to a shrink or something to make up for their familial disconnect you can

2019-01-11 01:16:04 UTC  

I just don’t see it as the most effective way of measuring the effects

2019-01-11 01:16:43 UTC  

No, seriously, I’m almost strawmanning myself

2019-01-11 01:17:32 UTC  

Tear this apart and tell me why having my food delivered or an au pair is not long term good 👹🤯

2019-01-11 01:19:09 UTC  

I mean, if I can put an economic value on not preparing supper, or looking after my kids, or taxing it when I can?

2019-01-11 01:19:10 UTC  

> good parenting is white supremacy

2019-01-11 01:19:19 UTC  

Fuck me

2019-01-11 01:19:21 UTC  

Lol. Fool

2019-01-11 01:20:25 UTC  

You should be able to rip me a new orrifice better than that!!?

2019-01-11 01:20:35 UTC  

Nah, I see where you’re coming from, but as I said, I just don’t think it’s the most effective way of measuring it... which is kinda strange since the other ways can’t really be measured

2019-01-11 01:20:48 UTC  

Ah well fair enough I guess

2019-01-11 01:21:07 UTC  

Absolutely right though, I wouldn’t have been able to raise my daughter if my parents weren’t around to help

2019-01-11 01:21:11 UTC  

Not can’t. Just damn difficult and seldom done

2019-01-11 01:21:26 UTC  

That’s almost invaluable

2019-01-11 01:21:35 UTC  

Mmm, agreed

2019-01-11 01:22:02 UTC  

You mean.. “for everything else there is MasterCard?”

2019-01-11 01:22:07 UTC  

🤯😬👹

2019-01-11 01:22:42 UTC  

Well, not for long if MasterCard is putting pressure on companies to not serve people they disagree with (ie Robert Spencer)...

2019-01-11 01:22:47 UTC  

For all your Non-Nazi needs :^)

2019-01-11 01:23:06 UTC  

Non-me needs anyway

2019-01-11 01:23:16 UTC  

Also that was a terrible joke and you should feel ashamed hahahaha

2019-01-11 01:23:25 UTC  

Effective, but terrible nonetheless

2019-01-11 01:24:53 UTC  

I bow scrape and abjectly apologise in unfit infinite sorrow now your supremacy... may I be allowed to live and subsist from licking your toe jam from now on?

2019-01-11 01:26:59 UTC  

You must raise your arms to the sky, standing on the highest mountain, with the wind and the rain threatening to cast you down to the earth and shout
"I disavow!"

2019-01-11 01:27:43 UTC  

What? No grabbing my ankles?
I accept beeman!
