And that’s just the start of what they’re doing :) permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] STUPIDVIPGUY@sopuli.xyz -2 points 3 years ago What that republican senator is doing is immature but military readiness isn't really that important considering our massive lead over every other country in the world, not to mention our extensive network of allies. Nobody is invading the USA. Military spending needs to be cut by at least 25% and then maybe we'd have some money to spend on actually relevant concerns But yes, it shows the partisan and regressive attitudes of the current GOP. It's sad to see that the OC seems to care about making progress on important issues like public welfare only to get brainwashed into thinking it's the left's fault for being inefficient. There is some truth to that but the reason our advocates of social progress can't get anything done is specifically because of the GOP's zero-sum stonewalling. permalink fedilink source parent
