Oooh, yes, a middleman system would be brilliant for this!

I keep seeing this idea, and I keep asking how is could even be mechanically accomplished, but so far no answers found. My understanding is most of the money simply flows directly to the Fed via our income taxes. Where in the process can the State interrupt that process?

Wouldn't basically everyone have to manually go adjust their W2 withholdings in order to stop paying the Fed?

He looks around, "Uh, no no, I've got stuff to do. But everyone else, they are cowards!"

That's true, but I doubt the US military is standing still on the drone front. Surely they'd be able to field their own swarms of drones. Perhaps some electronic warfare stuff too to disrupt drone communications. And if not at this moment, it won't be long. Every military on Earth is learning from what we're seeing.

Haha, fair enough, I never had a picky eater yet!

Let's play a hypothetical.

You are a Nazi.

I say, Nazi's are morons who should be exterminated.

You endorse me. I accept your endorsement.

Look, I make so much sense that even Nazi extremists agree they need to be exterminated! I am the common sense candidate that no one disagrees with! Here's my anti Nazi legislation!

ROFL so instead of taking me directly to these supposed job postings, you link me random Internet garbage that says they exist with the same credibility that you have. Which is none.

Meanwhile friends of mine have protested and not gotten paid anything. But they are probably Illuminati.

Mount Rushmore was a cover up.

Where do I get one of these paid protest jobs? Do I need to be on the Illuminati Newsletter?

Is the dairy tariff he's talking about anything out of the ordinary? It sounds like a lot phrased that way. Curious as to what the full story is about that.

To get a meaningful amount of people to withhold their taxes from the Fed you'd probably need to get enough people working and acting together that you'd already have been able to elect progressive politicians to begin with.

Last time shit got real bad economically we had general strikes, the building of unions, trust and monopoly regulation, etc.

Auto ship from Chewy solved this for me heheh

I'll grant you it's a big racket, it's corrupt, it's inefficient, but I don't think it's a skill issue.

I wouldn't consider failing to win the hearts and minds of the local populace using violence a military failure rather than a policy failure.

Another idea to add to the pile, Google your county's "board of elections" and I think you'll probably find some resources and where the finalized ballots will be ahead of the election date.

Ok, so that's not happening. What do you think the consequences of that should be? Do you want him out of office? Or just for people to say hey, that's bad! And then go about our business? Should we have withheld votes over that one thing or not?

Your questions? Oh I don't care about the DSA thing at all. I'm more concerned with where his actual focus lies as a local mayor, not who endorsed him and the optics of endorsements. I don't know enough about the DSA or any of the stuff that are bothering you so much to make it a wedge issue. I'm more curious as to what you hope to accomplish by your comments. One of the things the right does better than the left is maintaining party cohesion, so it always intrigues me when people self sabotage incremental moves in the right direction.

I'm arguing with you right now. If you endorsed me, I'd accept it. I'd take your money and use it for whatever I wanted. I'd take your endorsement to mean you agree with my views, regardless of what your words say. Or are you claiming some quid pro quo we should be worried about? Because that's usually the actual concern when talking about big money donors in politics.

Good job not addressing my point.

AND WHAT? What would you like done and what consequences would you like to see?

One is glad to be of service.

You're arguing macroscopic relativistic issues when voting is a quantum decision.

Are you arguing that you'd prefer Cuomo to have won? Cuz he's the runner up.

I think the main issue you're having in this thread is you are complaining but not really saying what you wanted to happen differently or offering any solutions. In the absence of such things, most people would assume you'd prefer Cuomo.

You live it my friend, no need to imagine!

AOC is going to need allies and a progressive coalition. We need to change the composition of the party from within in exactly this way. We just need way more of it.

If you live in a humid area, AC will become more and more valuable. Wet bulb temperature. At some point your sweat will no longer evaporate and you'll die. Climate change cometh.
