Ramirez’s “free stuff” is the usual GOP crap. What it really is: They want you to think it’s a horrible communist failure. It’s really just that liberals want the government to treat all people at least as well as it treats corporations and the obscenely rich.
Federal funding and “giveaways” mean our tax dollars are spent. I don’t want to pay for the campaigns of dozens of people who will do it just because its free.
ou mean he shouldn’t return the money to the people who pay taxes and should continue t give out handouts to GOP donors and corporations. I reject your premise and think you should be ashamed of yourself Ramirez.
NO ONE should be allowed to buy an election. {Voters should be required to pass a test of their loyalty to America—not the NRA, Putin, gun lobby, etc.]
Taxpayers’ money should support the Commons. The people should not be subsidizing energy companies and arms manufacturers, and retailers that do not fairly compensate their labor force.
What happens to taxpayers money is always a main issue behind an election. Corporate welfare, wars, building a wall… all taxpayers money. There is lots of it, and what it is spent on matters. Personally I’m all for spending more on helping the average person get by and less on helping big business.
But if they use taxpayer money, wouldn’t that mean they would be beholden to the taxpayers and not the greedy Wall Street psychos who will never have enough no matter how much they have?
Federal giveaways and handouts like to oil companies, farmers, and tax cuts to people who don’t need them? I’m talking about you multimillionaires and billionaires.
Strange accusation from Ramirez, or is he just unaware of who is paying for Trump to spend all his time at rallies over the entire country (and lining his own pockets by staying at Trump properties). Your tax dollars at work.
Giveaways and handouts? Oh, l get it, like Medicare and Social Security, and possibly hush-money paid to soybean farmers? Or the generous retirement benefits for members of congress? (Why more of them don’t retire beats me.)
Wow, Ramirez, great to see you’re so concerned with taxpayers’ money. Too bad your right wing heroes aren’t. Taken a look at the deficit and national debt recently? (Yes I know Ramirez is not reading these comments, it’s rhetorical address.)

Another “cartoonist” who thinks that federal giveaways should only go to the ultra-rich, as long as they donate to republicans.

Looks like the Ruskies are trying to assist Bolshevik Bernie in his presidential campaign.

Well, considering that it is OUR money in the first place, I’d rather Bernie spend it on us, rather than, let’s say, corporate tax breaks.

Republicans borrow trillions from China and give the money to billionaires.
Then Republicans say the debt is out of control and we must cut SSA and Medicare.
