THE MAGIC MONEY TREE BLOOMS AGAIN

THE MAGIC MONEY TREE BLOOMS AGAIN

Postby Cannydc » Sun Oct 01, 2017 12:40 pm

Just in time for what promises to be the most 'united' Tory conference in many years (Maybot's words) the mystical Magic Money Tree has again bestowed untold riches to be passed to potential voters in the form of people who can't afford to buy a house (£1.3bn) and students (£10bn). This follows an amazing money crop earlier in the year, when more than £100m was found to pay for each DUP MP to vote Tory in the Commons.

Honestly, if there are any Tory voters out there reading this - when will you ever learn ?

Never, ever trust a Tory.

Deport a few more immigrants and the Tory’s have more money to play with , perhaps they could force many that on the forums 24/7 into work , instead of a life on the dole and Billy no mates , that’s another option to save Money , and give the government bit more money to spend elsewhere

Just ignore the 9 (NINE) Separate reports each stating that immigrants have actually CONTRIBUTED overall to our economy.

Send them all home and we can ALL pay more tax.

Just another great wheeze from the Bigot's Good Ideas Club...

Politicians throwing money at voters in exchange for support?

What a novel idea. :ooer:

I don't think you'll find posters here Mark that post twenty four seven or anything like it.
But don't worry the Tories have managed to cut the welfare bill by 14 billion quid and another fifteen billion quid to be cut by 2020 .... two years away.
Basically thirty billion quid saved yet still they manage to double the nations debt!

You guys just had your own version of the magic money tree this week.

Bernie proposed a free college bill and was told that $47 billion was unaffordable and "what about the debt" and all the usual stuff.

Yet...

Congress just added an extra $80 billion to the military budget.

Funny how that works isnt it

Well, college wouldn't be any more free than our military is, but you are correct. People seem to find the money (and loans) for the stuff they want.

Conservatives are often hypocritical when they preach small government, yet throw it at the military, police and prisons.

Fear is used by both parties in the US. Fear of no healthcare, fear of guns, fear of gays, fear of Muslims, fear of nukes. Stir up that fear adequately and folks tend to not care what the "safety" costs in terms of money or freedom.

The difference is the fear people have of financial bankruptcy/hardship due to privatised healthcare is very real - number 1 cause of bankruptcy, with a large number of those actually having insurance when they fell ill - let alone the actual suffering caused by not getting treated because of lack of healthcare.

Same with the crippling lifetime of debt caused by college tuition. And when that bubble pops who will end up picking up the tab? the taxpayer anyway through bailouts. The grim irony here is college grads will end up paying twice.

Meanwhile spending trillions on killing poor people in the middle east hasn't made you one bit safer.... quite the opposite its made you less safe.

We have bankruptcy laws that handle financial distress.

People get to start over, if they make poor financial decisions.

Don't be afraid. :ooer:

Getting cancer is truly a poor financial decision. They should have thought that one over.

Go to the county hospital. They will treat you on the taxpayers dime.

And they often provide very good care.

Stay out of the VA unless you have no other options. In spite of all the money thrown at it, it's still a fairly incompetent place in general. I guess treating our soldiers after they serve isn't all that important to the folks in that government agency.
