None of Harris's emerging economic policy is defensible .........unless you believe in the theories of post-neoliberalism (anti neoliberalism). Post-neoliberalism advocates for the expansion of welfare benefits, greater governmental investment in poverty reduction, and increased state intervention in the economy. The Biden administration is basically post-neoliberal. Harris will solidify that economic policy approach furthering the drift of the US to illiberalism that began more than a decade ago with consecutive D administrations.

A vote for Harris in November is essentially a vote for economic progressivism (planned economies and non-capitalist economic policies.... that would be socialism). A vote for Harris signals your rejection of economic liberalism (free trade and an open economy). To me the worst part of post-neoliberal economic policy is the underlying income redistribution of the top AGI earners that end up paying for profligate government spending that pays for the "free stuff" Harris is talking about. High-Income taxpayers paid the majority of Federal Income Taxes. In 2021, the bottom half of taxpayers earned 10.4 percent of total AGI and paid 2.3 percent of all federal individual income taxes. The top 1 percent earned 26.3 percent of total AGI and paid 45.8 percent of all federal income taxes.

I guess DSL and CGVT are fine with that.

I support the welfare state, yes. Full blown FDR supporter over here!

Not going to go point by point but if you think Trump is the candidate of "free trade" then you're delusional. Protectionism is one of the only political beliefs he is sincere about.

[Jeff Buchanan]

Let's be clear, Trump is the better of two terrible candidates, sadly the only alternative to slow America's slide toward socialism. I've outlined what I think your vote for Harris means. My vote for Trump is nothing more than preventative. I can stand "mean tweets" for 4y as a stop gap to joining Latin America's failing experiments with post-neoliberalism ....... that shit has NEVER worked.

I have some hard right boomer MAGA acquaintances who served with me in the USMC. I get a lot of stuff from several of them because I happen to be on their email lists. I don't post the links mainly because a lot of them are over the top hard right crap. This one isn't. In light of the what amounts to a historically unmatchable recasting of Harris/Waltz by their handlers and supported by the media, I'm sharing this link. There's too much revealing of their actual political and policy records in the article to post a summary. The article needs to be consumed and considered in it's entirety if you plan on voting for this ticket in November:

"Community Banks are a member of the community!"

"There is signifcance to the passage of time!"

"A.I. stands for artificial intelligence...which is intelligence that is artificial"

And to think that Dan Quayle was once considered the biggest dumbass that has ever served as VP...
