  1. Congress won't address it becase it's hard work to deal with hard issues. Does anyone remember the 2% sequester and the calims it would end the world. https://obamawhitehouse.archives.gov/the-press-office/2013/02/08/fact-sheet-examples-how-sequester-would-impact-middle-class-families-job
  2. This article is pushing a dumb narrative. Putin invaded Ukraine because he wanted to topple the government and make Ukraine his vassal state. The people of Ukraine don’t want to live under the thumb of Putin, which is why they fight.
  3. The ends justify the means huh? is the role of the DNC to decide who is on or off a ballot?
  4. It’s not the CPI-W that screws you. It’s the methodology. The CPI-W has inflation over 20% since Jan 2021. The last COLA was 3.2%. The dept of SS averages the monthly CPI changes from Q3. If the number were based on the start of Q3 in 2022 and the end of Q3 in 2023, the COLA would have been 3.4%. Inflation from the start of Q3 2022 to the end of Q3 2023. July 2022 292.219 Sept 2023 302.257 302.257 - 292.219 = 10.038 10.038/ 292.219 = 3.43% The 2022 COLA was 8.7% with the averaging. Using the start of Q3 2021 to the end of Q3 2022 inflation was 8.98%. They are slaving off a few tens each year. https://www.ssa.gov/oact/cola/latestCOLA.html
  5. This summer the dems were fighting to keep RFK off the ballots. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/democrats-allies-sue-to-keep-rfk-jr-off-ballot/ And the dems claim to be the party of Democracy.
  6. Why does the Whitehouse feel the need to weight in on these topics?
  7. You’re being an idiot for the sake of being an idiot
