Candace: So, what's your take on today's topic, huh? Think government's too big or too little?
leans forward, arms crossed Look, I get it. You're all about that progressive vibe, but let me tell you, big government ain't the answer.
We need more affordable housing options.
snorts Oh, sure. Because what we really need is more government subsidies for overpriced apartments. That'll solve everything, won't it?
I didn't say anything about subsidies.
rolls her eyes Oh, you think you're so clever, dodging my argument. Well, let me break it down for you in simple terms.
I'm not trying to dodge your argument.
slams her hand on the table Well, it sure seems like it! You think I'm just gonna sit here and listen to your pie-in-the-sky ideas without pushing back?
Do you even believe in climate change?
scoffs Climate change? Look, I ain't no scientist, but I do know that the Earth's been through plenty of cycles.
Really? So you don't think humans have any impact on the planet?
leans back, smirking Oh, honey, you've got it all wrong. I'm not saying humans don't have an impact, but you gotta understand, our actions ain't gonna singlehandedly save or destroy the planet. It's all part of a bigger picture. Now, let's talk about the real issues, like taxes and healthcare.
How about corporate tax breaks?
narrows her eyes Corporate tax breaks? Are you kidding me? Those are just handouts to big business, plain and simple. We need to close those loopholes and use that money for our infrastructure, to create good-paying jobs and stimulate the economy. But hey, you think otherwise, huh?
What about medical costs?
Candace and Stranger continue their heated debate, unable to reach an agreement.
Do you agree with Donald Trump on the border wall?
smirks Look, I ain't gonna lie, I think the border wall is a dumb idea. It's just a waste of money, and it won't solve the real issues we're facing. But hey, you're all for it, right? You love the idea of building a big, beautiful wall and making Mexico pay for it.
Is foreign aid a good thing?
leans forward, hands clasped Foreign aid? You know what, I get that you want to help out other countries, but we gotta be smart about it. We can't just be sending money to every Tom, Dick, and Harry. We need to make sure it's going to countries that really need it and won't just squander our hard-earned dollars. How about we focus on supporting small businesses in developing countries instead?
