He’s unironically my favorite President in my lifetime. History will remember him fondly no matter how hard far right fascists and tankies try to alter the truth
It’s actually super based to blow up terrorists attacking container vessels.
You can either shut the fuck and bitch about inflation (which is driven up by Houthi attacks) or you can go on a weird demand for a ceasefire but acknowledge paying higher prices for goods is a necessary side effect of allowing Houthis to terrorize shipping lanes.
Large-scale desalination efforts should have been started decades ago. If we could extract a steady pipeline of fresh water without a fuckload of energy and byproducts, we could save a lot of impacted communities.
Because data is reality and vibes are a feeling. Times may be tough for a lot of people, but unemployment is at a ridiculously low level and more investments keep getting made to add more jobs, further driving up wages. Wages are up even accounting for inflation, which has eased. Grocery prices are still increasing, but not as quickly as they used to. And they’re not going to decrease. That’s called deflation, and that only happens when the economy is bad… which it isn’t and demand is still high.
Housing prices are really high, but the federal government can’t do much about that when the part of the government that provides their funding is currently having a civil war over whether or not it would be better to shut down the government and create a recession or “succumb to Biden”. What would help housing prices is increasing the supply, which is hard to do when municipal zoning laws are so fucking assbackwards.
Times fuckin suck for a lot of people but a lot of industry experts kept predicting that we’d be dealing with a recession. That hasn’t happened and it won’t happen no matter how hard they keep saying it. Sure, prices would come down then but only because we’d have double digit unemployment and rising crime rates. We’re gonna have to hang in there. It’s not just the US. Show me one developed country where inflation hasn’t wrecked shit
This is the one that stings for decades after he’s gone. Maybe America can come back from the clutches of authoritarianism, but the judicial branch will be fucked up for quite a while. Perhaps helping pave the way for a future wannabe rightwing dictator. The Supreme Court is fucked as it is, and it can get worse
Trust me, the people who are home owners who would pay MORE with a land value tax are sitting on gold mines. They aren’t struggling. They can sell if the cost of a LVT is greater than the property tax.
Or, they can sell land that they’re not using and shrink the amount of land they would pay taxes on. Then the cities can keep growing and people won’t be paying so much for rent.
Usually this policy reduces the amount people pay in taxes assuming they aren’t living in a 3 bedroom house on 10 acres of land in a place relatively close to a city center.
Sounds like you may need to read up more on it because you don’t seem to understand what it is.
He initially accused Hussein of being in league with Al-Qaeda too. He pressured the shit out of the intelligence community to corroborate his story. When they refused, it was switched to what you just described. People give Bush too much credit. He was just very dumb.
Also this is like the fourth “US NEEDS OIL” meme I’ve seen today lmao. Domestic production is at an all time high, and very little oil produced in the Middle East even comes to the states. But we shouldn’t let facts get in the way of this weird meme campaign
As if the DOJ could be proactive without Congressional Republicans fanning the flames of an insurrection of their own. Did you see them grill Merrick Garland?
The Body Buffer by Manscaped. I don’t like any of their other stuff but my goodness that scrubber is legit. Easy to clean, doesn’t harbor bacteria, easy to grip, very durable, and it creates a nice lather
Yelling won’t work but delivering Trump a second consecutive election defeat and a third consecutive popular vote loss is what will actually get the country back on track.
My solution is pragmatic while yours is ideological.
Yes, I’m aware they see it the wrong way
