Trump is causing larger wealth inequality
in order to engage in this discussion it is necessary to accept this statement as fact.........I can only accept it as ridiculous.......
Trump is causing larger wealth inequality
Translation: I don't like the facts so I'm going to make something up to try and discredit them because they go against my ideology and what I stand for. My ideology is more important than being honest.

For me, any candidate that brags about their "moderate" bonafides is a non-starter candidate for me. I don't want moderates because the Overton window has been pushed so far to the right that "moderate" is just code for "Republican circa 1992"; pre-Gingrich, but still sucky.
What is with all the lying from the left these days?

That's you, bruh.
You posted an Op-Ed, that provides no context, to advance this false issue of a pension crisis. Then when asked to provide that context, you scream and whine and appeal to authority all while not providing the context!
Wouldn't a $1T liability be a lot less terrifying if it was over 50 years instead of 5?
Wouldn't the liability be determined by the baseline revenues?
So what are the baseline revenues you and/or your Op-Ed are using to determine there's a liability?
Is the baseline 2010, when the economy was in the midst of the Great Recession caused by the Conservative policies you support?
Is the baseline 2018, when the economy was booming as a result of the recovery Obama managed and handled?
These are very basic questions that will reveal the true context of this issue...but you refuse to do that because there's a chance that the context will reveal you are exaggerating a problem for political and ideological reasons.
When you come from where I come from and see what I have seen.....capitalism IS the big fish.
Nope. Look at you trying to bully again. The math speaks for itself. You choose not to understand it. That's your issue.
I'm not one to miss meating a challenge
continued ignorance = slavery...........that's why you're screwed......
The math speaks for itself.
WHAT MATH?
Show me.
To show THE MATH, you'd have to provide the context of the things I'm asking; the baseline revenues and the time frame.
But you've refused to do that.
So THE MATH doesn't speak for itself because you refuse to even do that math. The reason is because doing the math would reveal the context, and the context will ultimately diminish the severity of what you're claiming.
So, show me the math. Show your fucking work.
(Pension Expenditures - Baseline Revenues) x # of years = liability
There's your equation...have at it. But be sure to cite your source so we know what baseline revenues you're using.
They're democratic socialists. Which is what we are calling for here. We're not calling for Venezuela, we're calling for Canada. But you leap to Venezuela so you don't have to speak to Canada, and you do that because you're a coward.
did you think there is a finite amount of wealth that needs to be divided up?......
If true, then you are calling for progressivism; not for socialism. Cowards are the people who make-up words, like democratic socialism.
You’re silly, it’s not a made up word. It’s why we have public school, highways and Medicare.If true, then you are calling for progressivism; not for socialism. Cowards are the people who make-up words, like democratic socialism.
There are a lot of people who don't want capitalism because with ownership comes responsibility and they like the ownership part but responsibility scares them.
Who bailed out who with socialism the last time "capitalism" went tits up?
