Well, there’s the whole Progressive Era around the turn of the 20th century. That was a pretty big deal.

I’m not sure if this board has even heard of it, and even if they have, y’all probably think it was communism or too woke or something.

Maybe but I’m sure we’ll see still some loser LSU fans there that feel the need to wear LSU stuff everywhere they go.

Never understood that attention whoring, just wear neutral colors for God’s sake

Wealth taxes don't work, but a few things I'd do if I could wave a magic wand without having to go into details:

1. Raise capital gains tax on high amounts of capital gains (meaning amounts well past "frick you" money).

2. Simplify tax code to disincentivize gaming the system to lower what someone should be paying under (1) above.

3. Pass a constitutional amendment that allows the federal government and state governments to heavily restrict "political speech" aka lobbying, bribery, and buying elections/votes.

4. Revamp anti-trust law to make it easier to break up entities and force individuals to divest when each holds too much influence or power in the market.

To me it matters less how much wealth has so long as that wealth can't be used to basically buy our government.

Can't say I disagree with the reasoning (UGA looks really good), but teams keep hoping we win so they don't have to play our opponent, and then when they play us, they're like "damn, OU is actually pretty good." Kind of amusing.

Yep, not likely we'll win but if we keep playing like we are then +1500 has really good value.

God, the anti-woke skyscreamers are more insufferable than the woke crowd. Probably because you guys are straight-up retards about this stuff, as pointed out already in this thread--why the hell would "white mother" be used for a white woman with white kids? She'd just be "mother."

Maybe take a deep breath and go outside instead of finding some stupid pointless shite online to work yourself up into a diabetic rage against.

I very much hate Trump and the GOP--do I agree that those athletes should boycott SEC schools? No, but it's a free country, so they can choose to attend or not attend a school for whatever reason they want (OP thinks this is "communist-ish" based on some retarded MAGA reasoning). I would respect them for potentially turning down millions of dollars to take a stand on their principles.

This thread would mean more if it wasn’t started by a Mizzou fan. Y’all are Big 10-esque and shouldn’t be throwing shade on the women of any state south of you.

He didn't say "Use your wealth (but not all) for my purposes," he said to give all your wealth away to the poor and follow him. He literally said that. Pretty easy to understand. Rich Americans who proclaim to be Christian who retain their wealth are not following Christ's teachings, because they clearly love their money more than him.

I'm out, I grew up Presbyterian so I know all the excuses y'all will give and need to get back to work. Just funny to throw some cold water on the fake bullshite from time to time.

Anyone who has actually read the Gospel and thinks Jesus would be a Republican today is only fooling themselves. He constantly shits on rich people and money. He quite plainly says rich people can't get into heaven and that the government should be given whatever it asks for in taxes. Also advises to literally let your enemy attack you again before you defend yourself.

He also ran around with the downtrodden and despised of his society. Dude would absolutely be hanging out with transgenders and immigrants if he were around today and would tell most of the GOP they're going to hell if they don't wake up. They of course would call him a woke Marxist.
