Presidential Election 2024

Free markets determine value. You're suggesting intervention. Morally, I agree with you. Practically, in a free market economy, the idea is ludicrous.

What we ought to push for is fairness and transparency within the economic playing field. We have less and less of that today.

The outcroppings are less competition, more collusion, and less resiliency. The Democratic party will not help you with this, even though they bark about it all the time.
True enough. Only 1 of them really cares and I could be judging him wrong. Bernie Sanders.
 
Attaching tons of power stripping clauses to a disaster relief bill because your party got smoked in the election is a sad move.
True, whether Republicans or Democrats do it. Our debt ceiling has come close to being breached because both parties put stuff in those bills knowing they will not pass anywhere else.
 
Everywhere I go, I see help wanted signs. I've been laid off. But I've been blessed to have some opportunities and to be able to build a career also. It's hard, no question, if you lose your job. At the same time, I hope we can collectively be able to lose our growing dependence on the government.
That's nice and congrats. I went from 2009 until 2017 without a job and it got rough. I have had 2 jobs since then and got laid off from both of them and have not worked now since August 2022. My mother's SS check is all we have and if anyone threatens to cut them, Republican or Democrat, it scares me. I know I sound like a troll, but some of it is fear driving me.

Are there no places to work where you live? Like is nobody hiring? No door dash, Uber eats, online surveys, temp agencies, etc?

Everybody around here wants experience workers, and I cannot prove this of course, but my age probably hurts. The fact is there are plenty of jobs available to me except for my not every having drove a forklift. They want people with 1-2 years' experience with them and I have none.

Men are born with 2 heads but only enough blood to run one effectively at the time. Now that slicks little head has shriveled up he seems to be thinking clearer. Could very well be a Tulsi who is probably center right which is about right

Say it ain't so. I thought conservatives were anti-women? Bunch of freaks that spew that nonsense.

Tulsi will never be President though, because many in both parties do not like her. Clinton may be right, but we will not find out because I cannot see the Republicans ever nominating a woman.

This isnt pork its a complete stripping of power from the executive branch to the legislative...GOP lost every major state executive spot convincingly and now are trying to shift that power to the state legislature to keep power in their hands and neuter the Gov, AG etc.

Yeah, I know, 2 different things but it works the same. These are must pass bills they put these things in.


All about grabbing power.

I really have no empathy for people who refuse to move to have a better life, and then decide to live in a pile of $hit and complain about it.

There is 0 excuse to not make a living wage from anyone unless you’re worthless, disabled, or stupid.

I 100%.....I was raised tough in a military heavy family so I am wired different but I don't understand how anyone can not have the life they want in this opportunistic country. I don't want people coming here illegally but I respect the work ethic of Hispanics immensely. If I could purge the criminals, keep the hardworking and send to Mexico those who refuse to try, I wouldn't even blink

If you are young and have a lot of money already. For others, opportunities are very few in this greed infested country.
 

It’s gonna be Blasey Ford 2.0 just go to recess and confirm these picks.

What is so special about Gaetz. To me, even without these allegations, he is not the man for this job. If he gets in a lot of people will be silenced. So much for the 1st amendment.

Actually I grew up in a very poor family. My parents are still in bad shape and barely make it every month. I just became a workaholic when I got my own place 4 years ago. For some reason I can't sit at home and do nothing all day

No one can break out of their economic situation doing a 9 to 5 job these days though. It takes all the make to live on so they cannot save. For every Bill Gates there are 99 others who try to do what he did, and they do not make it.

Even Sam Walton came very close to failure at least twice, before he finally got Walmart on its feat.

Testicular fortitude and vengeance. Bro idk I was surprised by the pick too but Trump picked him and I hope he gets who he wants.

The House Judiciary Committee is examining a whistleblower report that the FBI targeted Donald Trump soon after he announced his presidential campaign in June 2015, an off-the-books operation ordered by FBI Director James B. Comey that predated the Crossfire Hurricane operation.
An FBI agent involved in the probe revealed the off-the-books criminal investigation on Tuesday in a protected disclosure sent to the committee.

The whistleblower disclosure said two female FBI undercover agents infiltrated Mr. Trump’s 2016 campaign at high levels and were directed to act as “honeypots” while traveling with Mr. Trump and his campaign staff on the trail.

He will do whatever Trump wants...he is far from the most qualified but he is a proven Trump boot licker and that is all that matters to Trump.
 
They got the reciepts literally...just the fact that Trump hasnt withdrawn his nomination and picked someone else should trouble everyone. Trump wanting a pedophile sex trafficking drug using pervert as his AG speaks volumes.

This is just false so it shouldn’t be repeated. I know of a couple of “kids” 19-20 or so in my small circle who have found jobs making $25/hr starting off with the promise of more in a year or so. Study and pass the Grade 4 water operator exam and you can find a job making $26+/hr or so plus benefits. You can certainly do it as long as you stay away from buying a high end house and needing that brand new $50k Ford truck.
 

Biden just keeps upping the ante.
Biden has no idea what planet he’s on. He is less significant to the people who run the country than his own incompetent press secretary is to him. The cabal of corruption is ensuring their plans through the next four years by escalating every way they can. The people pulling these strings would put any of us in a labor camp to ensure their business interests are fulfilled.
