A hard and fast rule for government programs

They will have the exact opposite effect of their stated intention. See: Affordable Housing Act, Affordable Care Act, etc.

Remember that time trillions of dollars in "poverty relief" ended poverty? No? Anyone?

Isn’t it rich that that the only country ever to use nuclear weapons in war and which left Southeast Asia poisoned with Agent Orange and Iraq strewn with depleted uranium is getting on its high horse about enforcing “red lines” against chemical warfare?

To be fair, we shouldn't be immobilized because of the sins of the past.

horrific.

horrific.

I honestly don’t know what has to happen for us to figure out that this is terrible and simply must stop. I just don’t know.

While I am vegan for environmental reasons, this is what I meant by “unethically acquired meat”. It’s cruel, sadistic, and is just not right. Now this is murder.

ok people seem to have a lot of misconceptions about this picture but as a pig farmer i think i can set the record straight.

this is actually much safer for the animals. Often in a natural setting the sow will roll on top of the cute little baby piglets and, you know, crush them to death. She will also occasionally roll onto her belly so that not all of the piglets can suckle and they end up dying of starvation. They don’t leave the mother pigs in these cruel-looking contraptions permanently, it’s just until the piglets are strong enough to be moved around on their own. The mother is also taken out of the cage, walked, fed, and then put on the other side she she gets exercised and doesn’t have health problems to do with immobility. Because the piglets can’t get right up to their mothers in the cage, they are put under heat lamps to keep warm. Back when we were more than a finishing operation, I saw this all the time and it was for the piglet’s safety, and is in fact not a cruel practice. This is a case of misinformation.

So this is kind of like those little guppy isolation tanks that are used so that the female guppy and the other fish can’t kill all the babies.

Amazing how a picture taken out of context can look so terrible.

Syria

So the government thinks that by bombing Syrians we will stop Syrians from killing Syrians?

Damn Tumblr,

Why all these kids on here talking about things they don’t know about. If I have one more 17-18 year old try to lecture me about the nobility of welfare, I think I’ll barf.

Why is it that the areas with the highest black unemployment, poverty rates, and crime rates are almost exclusively run and have been run by Democrats?

I think Walter Williams nailed it with: “The Welfare…

Minimum wage causes unemployment. Inflation is caused by the government. So your answer to two staggering failures of government policy is to enact more government policies. Also, when was the greatest outpouring of charity in human history? In the late 19th and early 20th centuries BEFORE the government started aid programs. Sorry, every fact is against you. Put down the Krugman and pick up the Von Mises.

Yes, San Francisco and Oregon’s economies crashed and burned and they now live in a Mad Max dystopia where people work for minimum wage.

Meanwhile, Mississippi and Tennessee are flourishing!

[tofamoustocare]

You take two places with high per capita income and compare them with two places that do not and you believe you have proved a point. Furthermore, the links are opinion pieces and the FACT that a rise in minimum wage affects FUTURE employment has been so widely documented you should have no problem googling it.
