Well it is cramped in that van after all.

I mean I completely understand.

So does that mean we're going to see Coyotes snuggling equipment over the border now?

Again, have the wonderful day you voted for Arkansans.

Republicans are fucking pathetic.

Well it only looked unbeatable of you were part of George Carlin's voter rant.

Yeah, I can absolutely believe that the citation matches reality since it is a Israeli journalist pointing out how Netanyahu went to lengths to sabotage the peace deal and worked against the Biden administrations attempt at peace.

Still a opinion piece that uses a citation that does not support the argument contained in the opinion piece.

Then again, you can believe that Biden didn't do enough, can't say I don't disagree just not to the extent you do. I simply this think this opinion piece isn't great.

Yet expected.

So here's what I pulled from the dropsite link in the article.

Netanyahu Sabotaged Captives Release Talks to Prolong the War

Biden officials revealed that Netanyahu deliberately tanked negotiations, fearing a deal would force him to end the war.

American-Israeli hostage Hersh Goldberg-Polin was scheduled for release the day he was executed. Amos Hochstein confirmed: “There’s no doubt… those hostages would be alive.”

Netanyahu’s public campaign to retain control over Gaza’s Philadelphi Corridor was viewed by Biden officials as a smokescreen to kill the deal.

I'm not seeing damning proof that Biden didn't do anything. In fact point two send to imply that Biden was doing shit to get a cease fire.

But if course this is a opinion piece so it's not like you need to have citations that match the opinion.

Spoken like a Republican that doesn't understand inflation and price gouging vs tariffs.

Jesus, if only there was a party the was in the primaries that supported a voting system that isn't first past the post.

Oh wait.

They didn't have a massive SURPLUS when they made the fund. They made a conscious decision to tax and create a new revenue source that made them a debt free nation they are today, something we could do here, but not at that scale or expecting the same results because the US is a much larger country, by not coddling the balls of corporations and the ultra wealthy or if the US wants to "drill baby drill", tax and regulate the new sources of oil and create a SWF.

But again, you seem to completely stuck on the myopic view point of just saying the US has debt hence the US cannot create a SWF because of credit card debt.

And again, plenty of examples of nations that have national debt and deficits but still have and fund a SWF.

Anyways, this conversation is going absolutely nowhere so have a good day.

Hey Jefferies, Booker that's how you fucking do a sit in.

We require more minerals...100 minerals for 97 sols, and buy 10 sols for .99, 106 for 19.99, best deal 543 for 49.99.

The fact you're comparing national debt to personal credit card debt tells me all I need to know about your thinking here.

Also nice to know you think that Norway's decision to start a sovereign wealth fund was a bad idea.

We can talk about of the US starting a SWF, especially in the age of dumbass Republican rule, is a good or bad idea but your stated fact that these funds are only for nations without debt is still factually incorrect.

Patently false.

Any nation can have a sovereign wealth fund, Australia has a sovereign wealth fund and they have national debt, hell even in America there are states with a sovereign wealth fund, even Alaska with their massive deficits and if your referring to Norway, they had national debt until the discovered oil and they created their fund with oil taxes.

And it might still be the term that won't end.

You'd think the world would have learned that lesson during and after COVID lockdowns.

Boy if Betteridge was ever in play today, it's this article.

And none of this matters because of by some miracle this fascist doesn't fascist this country, the next, more competent fascist from the fascist party will take to where Trump left off because they'll always vote the hard R.
