69. 1corona4u is just confronting you with a reality you refuse to accept
because it's inconvenient for you to do so. Look at your subject heading, "beating the system" is usually thought of as right wing talking points," as if there really aren't people beating the system. Let me tell you some more inconvenient truths, since you refused to address my post on the details of Biden's vote on the bankruptcy bill. Taking advantage of the system is widespread. Democrats use the phrase, or some equivalent of it, all the time in referring to corporations. Republicans use it referring to the public. And they're both right. The public is doing it, corporations are doing it, even foreign entities are doing it. It's the culture of materialism and always getting what we want which we've allowed to flourish here in America. It pushes against reality and pretty soon reality is going to give us a big shove back. You can justifiable argue about the finer points of the bankruptcy bill, but quit pretending that responsibility is optional here in America and that anyone who gets in over their heads should be bailed out. I can't afford it and I'm not leaving beyond my means. Get real. Literally.
