and concerning the disability thing, if you receive a check from the government, (As in you can’t work) it applies because your check will be cut from say 1000 dollars to about $700.00. Yes, those numbers are very inflated but that was intentional
Such a thing, doesn't apply to me… But I get it…
Oh. That's not good. That may not apply to me, but it still makes me angry.
if I’m trying to make a point with what I’m saying, I always use stories and concrete examples of real people and real events
this lifelong Republican supporter (me) might have to vote Democrat or third party

Hey, you never know… It happens.
yeah it took me forever to finish that riding
I have no idea why I decided to make that three week old letter public. It’s the first post in this thread
I'm not trying to offend anyone on here. This is just my opinion, but why must we have Republicans and Democrats. I just don't see the point. Not everything about America must stay the same, but not everything must change either. It depends on the situation. A poor example of this would be making decisions with either only your heart or your brain. You need both to make a decision. People who are Republican or Democrat are only going by that and not by what America needs. And these categories are splitting us apart. There is nothing but hate from both sides. Politicians will only vote for who is on their side… wether they're good or not. These categories cause more harm then good. Sorry about this little rant. It isn't directed towards you or anyone, just America in general. (please don't be offended)

At least we could try to help you.
if not, I’d probably still be in the deep end
(welp goodnight. I'll be waking up at 6:30 so yeah.)
To each his/her/their own ideas, values and beliefs, as long as you're not hurting anyone, who cares, honestly. As long as we can keep it civil.

Then I'm glad I found your threads.
ha………… nobody caught that metaphor that dove in here
it’s sprang off the board

Hey Austin, I read your facebook post this morning and I have to say I completely agree with what it said. Like many other people who commented before me, the topics do not apply to me personally (especially since I'm homeschooled and have never been to public school), but I've always tried to empathize with people and it would hurt me to see others hurting. I think you wrote out your thoughts very well and you spoke very persuasively. To anyone who posts politically, I would suggest clearly stating the issue you're discussing and your basic opinion on it very first thing to avoid confusion and misunderstanding—but I understood yours fine, Austin, and I don't think it needs any improvement. :)
(Also, I see that metaphor….you know how to use words effectively man, good for you. I'm glad you shared your original letter with us, it gave us a chance to reach out and help you climb back up from the depths.)
amazing
have you ever thought of going into politics, Austin?
you could be a lawyer with me ;P
yes i’ve considered a political career
cool
good luck :)
You probably won't need it :)
everyone says i have a way of stating my thoughts without pissing people off……… a way of bringing people together
They didn't lie!
Teach me your ways…
just something i’ve always had
pat on le back
I could be famous I guess…
too bad art isn't a real job…
(at least not my art)
(art is a real job)
I love the post. I hate that as kids we have barely any say in who is in control of our county even though we are the ones who get affected by it most. If adults vote for someone we don't agree with, we are the ones who have to live with the decisions they make in the future. I know we aren't all knowledgeable on politics but we should at least get some say.
Yay Aubbs!
voting is a great responsibility. We can’t allow people who are not mature enough to make the decisions that this country must live with for generations to come. I personally believe that voting is a sacred rite and if we were to allow (gullible) minors to vote, we’d be in a deeper hole then we have ever been in.
You need to write a letter to Trump (or maybe Congress).
AUSTIN FOR PRESIDENT (or congress)
