THE ERA OF TRUMP

[MilSpecs]

Define “me and mine”

I already did. My family, my community, my county, my state. NJ has been supporting other states forever. The well is going to run dry. Trump’s doing the same thing to us that he did to Atlantic City: lie and cheat for personal profit.

You also realize NJ is one of the most corrupt states in the US too? So... yeah...

You should be on your knees thanking me.

As far as how life has changed, I'm going to lose a lot of money this and every year because Trump is hitting hard at the states that didn't vote for him by passing tax plans designed to deliver a hard punch.

How is eliminating Federal tax subsidies for state and local income and property taxes an attack on states that didn't vote for him ?

For years other states have been subsidizing your high taxes. I'd call that leveling the playing field.

And this is why we should all learn finance. NJ subsidizes other states, not the other way around. We send far more to the government than we get back. Other states have been living off us for a very long time, and trump is well aware of this. When the well runs dry (when trump has drained it off to benefit himself), it will not just be us who are screwed. It will be those states, who voted for trump, who will also be screwed when the money stream stops and they have to pay their own way.

You are killing the cow and eating today, but when the feast ends we will all be left with nothing.

No kidding. It has nothing to do with the federal taxes we pay, which subsidize other states.

It’s the fault of our senators and congressmen, not the governor. Although kissing trump’s ass got him nothing.

Well, it sure in hell doesn’t help.

OK, definitely not "the governor's" fault.



Why don't you just secede, given the shit deal "our senators and congressmen" have given you? Why do you keep propping up Mississippi?

Why don't you just succeed, given the shit deal "our senators and congressmen" have given you? Why do you keep propping up Mississippi?

This has been going on for far longer than Christie was in office.

And death before secession. Part of the deal is that the more successful states subsidize the struggling states. Having my hand bitten is too much though. I also think the people benefiting from the largesse should have some idea where the money comes from.

Largesse? Explain, s'il vous plait.

What is your reason for demanding fealty from a dependent state, exactly?
