    I agree with import taxes.... but I have seen nothing from this admin that supports import taxes
    I also have seen nothing from this admin to address foreign outsourcing, they could of tied that to the tax cuts, but choose not too

    it's hard to raise taxes on those outsourcing our jobs, but they could of only offered tax cuts to those that keep Jobs here in the USA

    So children getting services they couldn’t afford doesn’t help ?the chip program the working mom who can’t make ends meet Doesn’t help? Scholarships don’t help the needy to go to college? I’m sure you hate Medicaid, it perpetuates sicknesses, right? As I said, we have different values .
    We could go back to Reagan and throw the mentally ill on the streets

    the left is helping the middle class on down, the right prefers to help the rich and hope they help the middle class on down
    there will always be poor and rich, doesn't mean we stop helping the poor, the rich are rich, they do not need our help putting food on the table

    trickle down has been a failure, taxes for the rich is lower then ever

    Christians believe in an invisible deity that has no evidence of it's existence. that is a fact. Christians live by and make laws based on the superstitious beliefs of their religion. this is a fact.

    Where are you getting lost?

    I have to assume you’re very rich because only someone very rich would be against raising taxes . I have to assume you have an $11,000,000 estate that your lucky kids who didn’t work for it won’t have to pay any taxes on. If not, you are supporting what is against your own self interest you should educate yourself and learn that it’s your party that wants to cut funding for education and make college loans harder to pay back.
    Gee all those wall st guys and the huge corporations are all on the left...lol you really should educate yourself. You do know that trump was going to drain the swamp...he won’t show his tax return, he put a hedge fund guy in the treasury, and someone who has no experience in charge of education....his appointees should be an insult to your intelligence, but he’s a great con artist.

    When the right does it they seeks the concensus from a majority and pass a law

    When the left does it they just find a liberal judge to make a new law for them

    Look at why poor people are poor in the first place

    America is not a poor nation where no one has a chance to provide for themselves

    The poor have to make a series of bad choices over a long period of time to be where they are

    And it starts with the children that you are so eager to take care of

    The poor often have just one talent

    Which is to breed more poor people to take their place in the welfare line

    The universe is existence proof of a superior being.

    The golden rule has nothing to do with superstition.

    I dont have an easy answer to this

    America used go make almost everything we consume

    and most Americans had jobs making those things here in America

    But we began to lose that in the 90’s thanks to free trade

    The only thing that possibly can work is economic nationalism, America First.

    lol, not it isn't. I can just as easily say the universe is proof there is no superior being.

    The golden rule isn't original to Christianity.

    yep, free trade and foreign outsourcing will destroy what we currently know
    free trade should of been restricted to things we need but can not provide ourselves

    Exactly. The problem isn't the left or the right, the problem is globalism.

    nope, they push laws threw like the tax bill and tried to do with the health care bill

    equal rights should never be something for the majority to decide to take away from people, the courts are the proper place to address that

    "one nation, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all."

    You can say anything you want.

    So what ?? Love thine enemies is unique and the reason that many Muslims convert to Christianity. There is no teaching like that in Islamism.

    The reputation and moral standing of Christianity has been forever tarnished and the Republican party has committed suicide. I does not matter what any of them say anymore...your friends have destroyed you.

    The teacher union controlled public school system has not provided low income children equal access to a quality education. Charter (such as the Success Academy) and private schools have. Trump's education secretary Betsy DeVos is focused on increasing the availability of charter schools and vouchers to low income students. The D party has worked to limit those opportunities for low income students hence Trump's question "What have you got to lose?" The D's are not helping you.

    That's just stupid. The R's have done more for low income people than the D's every have. Economic growth is crucial and progressively helps the low income.
