It is insane, but that’s late-stage capitalism for you. The choice we made was to have a few hundred more billionaires in the population, even if it means millions starving.

If you aren’t an American, it may be difficult to understand.

Many cities here are very sprawled out and designed for cars, and therefore they’re necessary for economic survival, perhaps more so than a home.

With each new headline like this I hate my country just a little bit more.

Where’s the full video if he was recording?

I just figure that the video contradicts what the guy said, and therefore, he opted not to put it on the Internet.

After Obama, I don’t get excited about any politician until I see the fucking votes.

Words don’t matter. Someone saying the right things does not matter. I’m going to wait to see what happens once the reins of power are in their hands.

Maybe Mamdani’s different. We’ll see.

My god, the red conservatives and the blue conservatives are so incredibly hysterical.

Yeah, I’m also sick of people pretending that a terrorist ideology is just another harmless position, as if a person is deciding between ketchup and mustard and not literally in support of gassing an entire race of people.

Just another stupid story to distract from the Epstein files.

I don’t understand this person’s appeal.

This shit is ghoulish.

It’s a great ad.

Nonsense

He died because someone didn’t identify their target and exercise muzzle control.

I know how they are supposed to work, sure.

But here in KC people saw 100% to 150% increases, which was so ludicrous that the state tax commission stepped in and capped increases. We also just voted to recall our county executive who defended the assessments

And our scenario is not unique. It’s happening everywhere in this country.

Even though there is a legal process for tax assessment, that doesn’t mean it isn’t abused or corrupted. Also doesn’t make it okay for the county to levy unfair taxes to homeowners.

Sure thing.

Thank you for your opinion. I hope you have a nice Wednesday.

This particular situation is a little more extreme, but you’d be wrong. Homeowners are seeing their property taxes raised by criminal percentages nationwide. Thankfully most are fighting back.

Probably, but the bigger point here is that it’s a tactic being used across the country for various reasons.

We here in Kansas City are voting today to potentially recall our county executive over massively inflated property taxes.

This seems to be happening all over the place.

Spoken like someone who hasn’t had to interact with American law enforcement much.

Don’t threaten me with a good time.

I guess Jesus really, really wanted this particular motherfucker.
