      And they marry children instead of just molesting them like an upstanding Christian!

        Oh no Americans marry their children too.

        Between 2000 and 2021, some 315,000 minorswere legally married in the United States.[23] The vast majority of child marriages (some 86%) were between a minor girl and an adult man.

    Tbf it’s not same as US. Iran is using those weapons in self-defense instead of invading random countries an ocean + sea + two regions away.

      Also, were apparently low on munitions, so we’re failing at even spending our money on that.

    Coulda funded the healthcare subsidies twice over for the 200b they’re asking for

      Lol, that would have helped poor people. Can’t have that.

      source
    • ViatorOmnium@piefed.social ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

      They could fund a public healthcare system twice over with the money the federal government is already spend providing piece meal health care through several inefficient programs. The war crime fund could solve the housing problem though.

      source
    • superglue@lemmy.dbzer0.com ⁨21⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

      Th government is using health care to force people to continue working. They know they can fund it. They also know if healthcare becomes free in the US, there are lots of people who can just stop working. If they made healthcare free I’d likely be able to stop working by age 45

      I seriously doubt he considers Iranian people people either, maybe he’s talking about rich Iranians? Maybe Iran isn’t as good at pandering to the wealthy as the US is?
