BAIL OUTS ISNT WELFARE SAID THE MAGA GUY

2018-08-02 13:47:25 UTC  

Literally what a bail out is the government giving financial assistance to a company who is facing a bankruptcy or financial crisis

2018-08-02 13:47:29 UTC  

How

2018-08-02 13:47:29 UTC  

is

2018-08-02 13:47:30 UTC  

that

2018-08-02 13:47:31 UTC  

not

2018-08-02 13:47:32 UTC  

welfare

2018-08-02 13:47:59 UTC  

FDR did this exact thing 😂

2018-08-02 13:48:06 UTC  

because they werent hurting or in a financial crissis

2018-08-02 13:48:19 UTC  

this is just helping his fam

2018-08-02 13:48:25 UTC  

Obama did it

2018-08-02 13:50:15 UTC  

and it was successful, when he bailed out GM, i was against it for free market reasons but for it for competitions and jobs reasons, It wasnt a free market issue though it was corruption by bad management, the new GM is running just fine. Worth the investment, and it was paid back.

2018-08-02 13:52:26 UTC  

🤦

2018-08-02 13:54:07 UTC  

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

2018-08-02 13:55:31 UTC  

Economic benefits have outweighed that loss

2018-08-02 13:55:37 UTC  

its not even close

2018-08-02 13:55:52 UTC  

it saved Michigan

2018-08-02 13:56:31 UTC  

1.5M jobs might outweigh it, it may not, but there's no excuse to be made for losing 12B$ from this bail out

2018-08-02 13:56:41 UTC  

That's a shit ton of money

2018-08-02 13:56:57 UTC  

we could have forced them to pay the full amount, that was obama croney's short selling still have to look at the big picture

2018-08-02 13:57:10 UTC  

just...……………. 😤

2018-08-02 13:57:13 UTC  

whatever man

2018-08-02 13:58:50 UTC  

I dont doubt you are a patriot man! I tend to look at things on a case by case basis, and not try to make sweeping generalizations

2018-08-02 13:59:06 UTC  

you make very good points

2018-08-02 13:59:51 UTC  

honestly i dont remember going at it with someone in a while so this was good, regardless of our thoughts and opinions

2018-08-02 14:00:15 UTC  

it frustrates me to talk trade with "conservatives" who believe in protectionism. Thats not what a conservative is.

2018-08-02 14:00:37 UTC  

conservativism is a broader spectrum than you think

2018-08-02 14:01:03 UTC  

not really

2018-08-02 14:01:09 UTC  

the outside of it is populism

2018-08-02 14:01:25 UTC  

which isn't conservatism by any stretch of the imagination

2018-08-02 14:01:52 UTC  

It's more rooted in a left leaning ideology than anything else really

2018-08-02 14:08:42 UTC  

Conservativism spans from liberalism to libertarianism

2018-08-02 14:10:33 UTC  

with socialism left of liberalism, and anarchy right of libertarianism

2018-08-02 14:11:20 UTC  

and communism and facism even further left than socialism

2018-08-02 14:11:51 UTC  

Ancaps would be the right of libertarianism

2018-08-02 14:11:55 UTC  

Populists though

2018-08-02 14:12:20 UTC  

they're left-wing fiscally, but right-wing on cultural issues as Le Pen and other populists in Europe demonstrate

2018-08-02 14:12:33 UTC  

Which on culture issues, they thrive on

2018-08-02 14:12:42 UTC  

Its all about the culture wars to them

2018-08-02 14:12:58 UTC  

Its how Trump thrived as well
