a fuckin disgrace, our duopoly system

@Jokerfaic this is why it would be really helpful to have a strong 3rd party in the US

It would help keep the major parties in line

we need our own purple party

a ukip of the us

usip

Yes, agreed

confront superfluous foreign entanglements

focus on domestic policy as a primary activity

And the continuous bloating of the federal government

does every state have its own lottery, like Oregon's?

No, it's not legal in every state

mihgt look into addressing that

state level revenue source, and cut federal spending sources could be used for a small stipend added to each pool

There are definitely some ways the states could raise more money, but I personally think cuts on the spending side would help more

well sure, but few measures don't attempt to hit a hundred birds with one stone anyway

Yeah

I forget who I was talking to about it, but this new party would need to address abondoned industiral hubs in the center of the nation

That's actually a failing of the Legislature, though. Bills should be concise and narrowly focused

the way he was talking about it, basically scrapping the equipment there and refitting the facilities with new purpose-built machinery seems best

What would help with heartland issues would be to decrease centralized control, both federally and in state capitols

Larry Sharpe had a really good manifesto on this kind of thing in 2018, when he was running for NY governor

Lyndon LeRoche wanted to abolish the federal reserve

might also help

but then Bush and republicans essentially put him under house arrest during both his presidential runs, and branded him a "socialist" out of absolutely nowhere

and now that's all you'll find on his wikipedia

that he's a socialist or some bullshit, that he studied marx, and that he was, by their explicit instruction, branded a "political extremist"

don't for a fucking instant think Democrats are the only party that operates with some sketch as fuck methods

and this habit of branding literally anything and everything Republicans don't like as 'socialism' is directly related to the massive rise of socialism-interested youths

Leftist/Socialists are complete loons

They're beyond help at this point

"Lyndon Hermyle LaRouche Jr. (September 8, 1922 – February 12, 2019) was an American political activist, convicted fraudster, cult leader, and founder of the LaRouche movement, whose main organization was the National Caucus of Labor Committees (NCLC)"

Maybe it was the fact that LeRouche was a member of the American Labour party that preached marxist revolution in the 1970s

Also convicted fraudster and cult leader as mentioned above, he was a socialist political chameleon

Trying to imply he was anything but that is laughably uneducated.

@Jokerfaic no, what has led to a rise in socialism (which is really just a dogwhistle for transferism) interested youths , is the entire, sharing is caring, mentality we teach kids. Dont send your kids to school with candy or special treats, other kids might feel left out. If you bring snacks bring enough for everyone. Everyone gets a trophy, everything must be fair. We've bread a generation of weaklings (millennials) who cant fend for themselves, who seem to think they shouldnt have to pay back money they voluntarily borrowed. People who think they are entitled to the services of others and that those services are a "human right".

@everybodydothatdinosaur exactly, complete smear job

none of that is accurate

Except it is
