We get rid of at least part of the progressive poison seeping through the US
The proposal that we build a wall around CA would be necessary considering it is now part of a foreign nation
The people who want to live under communism can have it
It’s a fucken win-win
@Deleted User doesn't the US own as much of China's debt as the US owns of theirs?

The 19-year-old told Sky News from a Syrian refugee camp that "a lot of people should sympathy towards me".
Yeah, wife and I have talked this one through over the last few days, @Lash-Games
I think everybody has been. What is more amazing is I would say 99.9% of social media posts about it as telling her to fuck off, it is only a handful of people (almost all in the media) who are in any way, shape or form trying to cover for her
Ooh yes. Our conclusion: “duck off” and “oh shame let the poor little girl come home!” are both equally morally bankrupt and cowardly.
Yeah, let her return with consequences
@SpanishAbbey Yup. 👍 The only existing U.K. law which is capable of dealing with this is treason though. Which falls down given that a sovereign state declaring a non-sovereign body an enemy (with one or two precedents like Egypt declaring war on Islamic brotherhood) doesn’t happen. Diplomatic shitstorm
I'm sure they could whip up a conspiracy to commit something or other lol
"Jeff Bezos should pay to build housing for all 63,000 homeless people in New York, an expense that would not affect his lifestyle in the least. In return for these concessions, NYC residents will agree not to spit in your coffee or spray communist graffiti on your headquarters for the first month."
People have tried the free housing for the homeless...doesn't work
but doesn't suprise me from the Democratic Peoples Paper of the Guardian...

I bet doesn't remember the 70s when NYC was a hell hole
Hey, you want to open a business in my neighborhood? How about you give me $10m first, bigot
NYC is losing out anyway due to the lost tax revenue those additional jobs would have created
there have been times where companies get the deal then fail at their promises....I think FoxCon just did it
Did foxconn get tax break or actual money?
My understanding is Amazon was goning to get tax breaks. in other words new york agreed to take less of their money.
I forget what their specifics of the deal were was but I know they backed out and got something for it....
The Amazon deal they got 500million to help with construction which could be money or maybe building they were going to be gifted and the rest of the it (2.5 bill) would be tax breaks
Are there even 63,000 homeless people in the entire US? That number seems way too high for New York.
There’s about 30k in LA alone so it wouldn’t surprise me
LA is higher than that
LA is the US capital for homeless.....
I looked it up 63,000 in NYC is correct....but 2/3 live in shelters every night....LA has more living on the streets likely due to better weather
I was just going off of what google said. I know anecdotally the whole city is full of homeless but I have no idea how many there actually are
my fav headline from the LA homelesshttps://abc7.com/health/la-considering-ripping-out-carpets-at-city-hall-amid-typhus-outbreak/5125038/
Really? I didn’t realize that there were so many. I honestly thought the number was around 60,000 for permanently homeless people for the whole country
Well I lot of the homeless in NYC are working homeless that can't afford housing..
there is a difference between working homeless priced out of the market and is with it. And homeless who lives on the street and does who knows what for money

This is interesting
I agree that there’s a difference between can’t afford and not working
I blame zoning laws and building codes for that.
