So basically, they are mooching off of free healthcare - by performing by one of the most risk free activities that is almost going to guarantee they won't need healthcare in the first place?
MAGA tactic:
Take negative stereotype, say it is preventing a desirable goal from being reached, then say it is because of what you are actually trying to cut. Doesn't matter if they barely have any real relation to each other.
Someone so disconnected with reality should not represent anyone.
LOL, Says the guy mooching off all of us for free healthcare and a paycheck.
No that is what billionaires do mooch off the tax payer.
the population of young men who do nothing all day, have no interest in employment, but are also extremely motivated to apply for and maintain their access to healthcare and make regular doctor appointments
Mooch on guys!
Magats shit on women... Still get women votes... Shit in soliders still get soldiers votes... Shit on Mexicans.... Still get Mexican votes... Shit on men...still get men votes...
I don't know who this says more about... The voting group or Democrats that can't win despite this shit.
They'll just keep turning the screws tighter if you let them.
Don't listen to their lies.
Does he realize these unemployed, dirty gamers who complain but don’t do anything productive tend to lean conservative?
Its a lot more rewarding than choking on a small carrot.
Should have chewed first.
Young men have no idea what health care is, nor do they care.
They are healthy and heal fast.
They are the ones who traditionally pay in and dont take out.
The problem is not this bloke. The problem is the people that voted for him.
Maybe. But in many areas, only one party realistically has a shot, so reps basically get elected in their primary process. So instead of needing a majority of the total population to win, you just need a plurality of the few who get involved in the primary process.
Blame the people involved in the primary process, not the people who only vote in the general election.
I pay $60 (or whatever), pay for my data connection, and get to play my game literally for years. It’s one of the cheapest forms of entertainment around. I get tons of value out of my purchase, it reduces stress, I get a sense of challenge out of it, and for the amount I spent I get a lot pf return.
Now if only health care were free. That’s just a bullshit statement and not even worth responding to. That said, In its current state it’s the opposite of video games. It’s expensive. The amount you put in is often not what you get out. It’s stressful.
Maybe the only way it’s like games is that someone can pull the plug on you when it’s not profitable anymore.
There was a billionaire, CEO to multiple companies, arguing that he’s one of the best in one of the most grindiest games…
Congress need to fix big and large companies from firing people in masses every quarter and not hire people.
As a young man, I'm just waiting for the AGI breakthrough, so it either fixes the fucking government, or wipes us out. Win-win.
Utter BS
Through what fucking program? Magic?
nah they are playing video games all day because video games are more fun than toxic work environments and helping CEOs earn bonuses
Shit, they're on to me.
You know what, he's right. I'll go get off my ass to spend the evening running my 2 million dollar quarts mine and then swing by my 875k dollar quarts furnaces, weight seperation, flotation cells, and crystalization facility to create a bunch of semiconductor grade silicon used in solar and electronics production.
OH WAIT! I DON'T HAVE $3M FACILITIES TO RUN! Somebody else is out there doing the work that used to take a hundred men. The world doesn't need us all doing 12 hour days, the world wouldn't take us if we even offered.
