Technically property taxes pay for schools and thats it. There are other municipal programs they sneak in there too. It doesnt even pay for roads, sidewalks, or utilities. Gas tax pays for roads and sidewalks. Utility bills pay for utility lines run under ground, specifically "delivery charges" on utilities pay for all the distribution infastructure.

[@CompassRoseGaming]

​@@rustyscrapperProperty Taxes , in our current fiat system, exist for the same reason other taxes exist; to remove money from public circulation. When the government wants to pay for services, they can print money. But without the ability to reduce the supply of money after that, you get inflation. Taxing is the easiest way to remove $ from the hands of people

[@vladimirofsvalbard9477]

Property taxes existing mean that there is no private land; it's all nationalized. So technically this is a semi-communist society if you think about it lol

[@HTMLRu1ezD00d]

Property tax should only be paid once upon paying for the property. The reason it is a tax that must be paid yearly separate from income is to force you into the system to where you must earn money in order to keep it. It is a generational wealth bleed; a way to keep you working and giving money back into the system rather than acquiring and keeping. This is supported by the fact that if you do not pay, you can be forced to lose the property. You are either losing wealth by paying into the system, or losing wealth by not being apart of the system.

If you took it all away you wouldn't want to live. Only reason I do is for my daughter, and I'm scared to death about the father I can't be to protect her in this world that she needs and I need. Probably me more than her. Even if you take the 20 year demographic between you guys, the 35 year olds grew up in a different world it's changed so much. And it is changing faster than we can even phantom at the moment. I'm only 7 mins in lol, I better hear the rest out. Hats off to you all for speaking on this subject. We need to bring back more traditional values, remind each other that we need a woman as much as they need us. We compliment each other, if the balance is right. And balance is so important. And this is what both men and women need. More discourse between generations because broken homes have caused so many issues. Generations have grown up without fathers.

When is it "Toxic" masculinity/feminity is like asking "when is a knife 'bad'?" The knife is a tool. It's APPLICATION that decides if it's "good/bad" "toxic or not"

[@NikRsmn]

I think masculinity would be the knife and toxic the descriptor. Not even us leftists would tell you making your family feel safe is a toxic trait. But not sharing troubles with your wife so you bare it alone until it erodes your confidence IS toxic. That doesn't mean you have to share every hang nail, but don't kill yourself trying to be atlas.

[@filthyfrankblack4067]

Just another box to separate people.

[@HTMLRu1ezD00d]

If you can’t give a flat definition that everyone as a collective agrees upon, then toxic masculinity doesn’t exist. If I do one thing, someone may not see it as toxic. Where someone else might. If that is the case, how am I ever suppose to do anything that wouldn’t be seen as toxic. The answer is you can’t. If you ask 20 people what toxic masculinity is you are going to get different answers. The word toxic is being tied to masculinity to give masculinity a negative stigma. That is the only purpose. If toxic masculinity exists, toxic femininity also must exist. Yet rarely ever gets talked about. Man bad, woman good propaganda.

​@patrickvernon4766 it's social engineering. Didn't you hear the part in the beginning where they said the school system was basically designed to create a trainable work force? You teach the kids how to fall in line and operate within what is basically a corporate structure, and hopefully they continue to operate that way their whole life. Big business wins, the government wins. Most people aren't smart enough to educate themselves out of that situation, so they think that's the only thing they can do, because that's what they were taught to do. "If I work really really hard, I can get more stuff and get ahead in life". Then they teach that to their kids.

Thank you so much for having Nick on your cast. Civic duty to know what it is your voting for, not that you vote. We were taught in school(when dinosaurs roamed the earth) that when it came time to vote, you better have read through all the issues that each one of the candidates stood for, and vote according to your own conscience. Party was never the deciding fact. You were to vote for who aligned with your own moral compass, and ideal norms. I never had a teacher that voted party line. They voted on both sides, because they wanted balance. I'm 61, late boomer, but all my values came from my parents and the people in our community. Oh and we homeschooled our kids for 2 yrs, then we both had to go back to work, and 5 yrs later they moved to an independent study coarse that they soared through and Aced.

Vikings, Roman’s, Islam, etc anarchy is great idea, except entirely ignores some peoples human nature of conquest, and greed. What usually stops these elements from doing these things is simply that they can’t. That it’s too hard, and/or too much penalty. You lose most of that protection under anarchy. You have no substantial community funding. You would just be a group of poor, weaklings that would get wrecked by individuals marauders alone. Not to mention powerful groups that do nothing but conquer. We’ve been there before, use your brain. There is a reason basically every single culture and group in the world ended up forming a government. And it’s because it’s actually safer. Yes governments go rogue and tyrant and can get just as bad as before. That’s why there is an equilibrium that everyone is suppose to help keep in check. Of a balanced and reasonable government. Anarchy isn’t the equilibrium, it’s the opposite swing the other way that is just as dangerous as government tyranny

Even if you disagree with Nick on every other topic, I don't know how anyone can listen to him talk about education and disagree. I went to school a long while ago now, and even then all his points held credence. I did abysmally in high school due to format and only graduated because I knew how to meet the lowest bar for getting a diploma. I was once told by an english teacher that I would be lucky to end up as the garbage man. I have since been highly successful in the usmc, college was straight A's with little effort, multiple professions from office work like real estate as well as field work as a helicopter pilot. Point is, public school with zero competition is a terrible system. There are good teachers in all of them but it is so rare per person that they universally like or at least respect more than half the teachers they had in public school that it is a net negative and needs serious overhaul.

The problems that I have noticed are mainly caused by three major factors. First I am 68 years old and grew up in the late sixties and seventies, and I "people watch". What I have seen with my own two eyes there are great differences in the way we educate our children to put it bluntly the school system today is very inadequate. The second factor is Discipline it is virtually impossible to Instill discipline in a child without having to deal with Child Protective Services. I have been paddled (three swats on the A** for really bad behavior) today if you try to instill some disciplined self control (teaching from a young age that negative behaviors have actual physical consequences). My grandmother used to say "the reason your palms are curved is so that it matches the curve on their little butts" I'm not talking a Beating but three swats with a bare hand can definitely change a child's attitude. The third MAJOR issue I see today is a disregard for basic respect of others (i.e. at least half assed manners are better than no manners at all. Being taught from a young age that a simple please, thank you will go a long way as a result the youth of today simply treat others as are beneath them. (This is how you make a Karen BTW).

1:58:02 the sad thing is that a lot of parents don’t care or don’t know how to educate their own children so they lack the framework to properly school their children. We are so deep in this education problem that those parents had a horrible education and for whatever reason they might have had they decided not to try and learn via internet or other means. So now they are unequipped to teach their own children.

[@vladimirofsvalbard9477]

Exactly! I understand the entire conservative argument about education, but it also pretends that parents will do the right thing given more educational freedom in raising their kids. If you give parents full autonomy in their child's education; a majority of them will let their kid look at their iPad for 6 hours straight 5 days a week. Most of the anti-social problems are stemming from the home; not the classroom.

[@hillowl4977]

@ agreed. We saw it during Covid. Granted we are choosing to homeschool in my home, but I have the care and knowledge base to do research and I know what I can’t teach (like Spanish) so I use resources like homeschool groups to make sure they get that education. I just don’t believe that a lot of homes would care to do that sort of thing because of a variety of reasons including but not limited to a lack of time, income, or they don’t care

And those girls aren't learning from women who have experience in life they are being taught by tiktok influencers that have no experience in life other then LOOK AT ME LOOK AT ME LOVE ME! They get so many people who "adore and love" them they think they are special and should be treating as so. GROWN ADULT WOMEN aren't grown adults and you will never see it cause around you they are watching their P's and Q's to keep you off their backs. Maybe you have two of those young women with good hearts and common sense but the statistics say they are pulling the rug over your eyes. Women need to be brought down to reality and I got money that says you didn't ever let them roll in the mud or do the nasty work they need to be accustom to. You where likely barbie dolls, makeup, and my precious little girl. Men have become flaky because women have no respect for them and aren't worth the effort.

In Iowa, we do have a voucher system, and I do have my kids in public schools, BUT I do a ton with them at home. If you choose to keep your kid in a public school be active at home.

Regardless if Graham doesn’t believe public libraries serve a function, they are more than book repositories. They offer tons of FREE services. As crazy as it sounds reading and libraries are no longer mutually exclusive. It’s more than just books now and has been for a long time. Just because you didn’t use one doesn’t mean regular people don’t.

They are a NET detriment to society based on who typically works in them and the agendas and policies they actively promote. There are exceptions but we'd be better off without them as they currently exist. The librarians of my youth are mostly long gone and unlike my mother I could never leave a small child alone there for hours to read with the adults there.

[@whysoblutube]

@@feeseize9569 why would you drop off your child at the library for hours at a time, though? Libraries aren’t there to babysit your kids - they aren’t playpens. That would be irresponsible parenting. What do you mean by who “typically works there” and “agenda?” Public libraries are democratic and secular institutions. ALL are welcome. But hey, if folks want to doom scroll all day instead of reading a good book or visiting their local branch because they have some preconceived notion about them that’s all on them.
