The left is more about FREEDOM than the right

[Chew Toy McCoy]

The key difference is the left wants our tax dollars to provide enough of a social safety net so they can pursue their dream career in macaroni art.

The right wants everybody to start with the same (perceived) disadvantages and then claw their way to the top even though that has been well proven that’s not how it works for the vast majority of people. Under the left’s system they would be able to pursue a career in swastikas for Jesus without having to worry about how they are going to pay the bills.

The right seems to clamor for smaller government yet always want to expand government overreach against those they don't like.

Sometimes I wonder* if they'd support a tax hike if they were told it was going to go to pay for Federally funded 'Christian Rehabilitation Centers for the godless left'

* Joke - of course they'd bloody support it...

They’ll also flip flop on state’s rights when it suits them. If they are consistently anything it’s hypocrites.

All fine and good, but please explain exactly who is going to pay their bills?

Taxes pay for healthcare, education, and basic housing. Some form of income will be needed to pay for anything beyond that. If you want a more expensive lifestyle then get a better job. You just won’t have to work your ass off at some soul sucking job just to get your basic needs met.
