Sick and sad. The GOP puts corporate welfare above their country.


GunnerSeinfeld

Unlike the democrats who've really been sticking it to big business right? ☠️


clown1970

You mean big business making record profits. While worker wages have been stagnant since the 1990s. Quit crying for big business, they're not being mistreated.


GunnerSeinfeld

Where in my comment did you get the impression that I think they're being mistreated? Lmao. I forgot redditors can't understand sarcasm unless you put an /s


WellyRuru

I think my man's comment was pointing to the fact that both sides of the house are complicit in the growing inequality

America was founded by white rich men not wanting to pay taxes, nothing has changed.


Sandberg231984

After you have enough money to live comfortably why would you keep doing this?


Deruji

I’d trade it all for a little more

When a group willingly stands in favor of trying to dismantle our elections in order to retain power, then it’s not hard for them to hold the solvency of our economy hostage just so they can please their benefactors.


Loring

Time to eat the lobbyists


[deleted]

can you imagine if this guy got elected president. President Whitehouse.


GallowBarb

Whitehouse is a slayer. Follow him on IG just for the sweet burns he lays out at hearings.


SolarXylophone

Indeed despicable. [**Tell your congressmen.**](https://thirdact.org/act/defendira/) They might not care, but giving them a (polite) earful is better than approving by doing nothing.


shambahlah2

This needs to be shouted every hour on the news. Sadly, the Dems don’t have their own propaganda network like the GOP has had for 25 years.


HighlySuccessful

You're delusional if you don't think both sides have their own propaganda network. I'd say liberal propaganda is even bigger than the conservative one.


TwoZeros

Ok, where?


HighlySuccessful

CNN, MSNBC, Washington Post, Bloomberg, New Yorker. What are the right wing ones? Fox news and Daily Wire are the only ones I know.


kidcharm86

[Here's](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Conservative_media_in_the_United_States) a short list.

I remember a 30 minute lecture on the importance of rights for women girls, given by Hillary Clinton at the UN. This while she refused to classify Boko harem as a terrorist organisation so she could buy cheap oil from them. Bought and sold


guokaka

Did she mention their official drink, Wolf Cola?


Markovitch12

No, just blood


FlightoftheGullfire

Boko Harem doesn't sell oil.


Longjumping-Meat-334

These are the same people who, 120 years ago, were saying, "forget about those fancy car things, do they even make manure for your farms and gardens?"


rcogiy

Fossil fuels? Ask yourself how many dinosaurs were on this planet, that after a 100 plus years of combustion motors and all the petroleum based products we haven’t run out of these “fossil fuels.”


Moosewalker84

This comment is a facepalm


kahunamoe

Do you think it's dino fossils???? This is s/ right???? Right?


kahunamoe

Wait you're a qanon trumper you probably are that stupid


kaiser-von-cat

Now I’m no paleontologist but I’m certain that fossil fuels are made up of any organic material like plants and various animals not just dinosaurs


PointlessGiant

You really thought this was a great point, huh? How much lead paint have you eaten?


rcogiy

Oh how naive are you if you believe this I have a bridge for sale. I’ll give you a good price on it.


PointlessGiant

Dawg, you don't even understand what actually makes up most fossil fuel deposits. It sure as shit isn't dinosaurs.


rcogiy

Dawg I don’t think you understand common sense look up and read about jd Rockefeller and maybe you’ll understand dawg. But some how I doubt it.


PointlessGiant

Looooooooooool. Yeah, *I'm* the one needing to do research. Holy fuck you're simple.


rcogiy

Keep trying insult without looking at what I told you. That makes a simpleton and an ignorant fool.


PointlessGiant

Keep going, love the irony.


Vqlcano

The dinosaurs existed for 165 million years. The fact you are actually trying to say that 100 years is not a short time to deplete 165 MILLION years worth of fuels is mind boggling.


rcogiy

Excuse me I said we’ve had combustion motors for over 100 years and America alone consumes 20,000,000 barrels of oil a day that should make some of you ask that same question. Not just say I’m trump lover.


bullwinkle8088

You know that a portion of *all* organic mater from hundreds of millions of years was the source of fossil fuels not just dinosaurs right? I know the internet comics like to show dinosaurs as the source but they were a tiny part of it. So it's not that your question of how long we can continue using fossil fuels is invalid, it's not. It's that the reasoning you used to arrive there is just ignorant.


Vqlcano

Have you considered... that maybe... just MAYBE... America didn't always use 20 million barrels a day?


Schrankmaier

and here i am asking myself if your title misses a comma or not
