I was going to start signing “Hungry Eyes” but she might take it as a call to a buffet.

The final conclusion of capitalism is one solitary person holding all money. Like some crazy real life form of monopoly.

I think they forgot the /s but with the current climate, who knows.

My inner cynic is coming to the surface on this one. I would rather the GOP control all 3 branches so it doesn’t give them an excuse that the “other side” is holding back progress or some other bullshit. Yes it would mean unchecked power, but it might be the only way to open people’s eyes…I can’t even finish that because I doubt even that would happen.

That also seems to be an issue that keeps happening. Single issue voters. People get so locked in to one issue and will just straight up toss salad of the person that says they are going to make their issue their #1 priority.

Only problem is that #1 priority is on the same scale as 20+ other #1 priorities and the official is going to take on those issues that will benefit themselves the most.

“We investigated ourselves and found nothing wrong.”

Jokes on you, I could care less either way. I was in but I feel I didn’t do much to be thanked for.

Being a vet myself I would HOPE that most commanders especially the Joint Chiefs would say no to that level of absurdity and bullshit. If it came down to it yes he could relieve commanders till he found someone to follow his orders, but if that happened I would almost assume a coup would take place because the CIC is trying to subvert the Constitution and every Service Member is charged with upholding said document.

Now getting a 3 letter agency to do it…is another matter entirely, but again any federal employee is sworn to uphold the Constitution and not the man. I just feel those 3 letters can be swayed a little bit easier.

With my portion and my companies portion, it would almost be the equivalent of what Germans pay in taxes for all the programs they have over there. I think most are in the same boat we just don’t realize that we are getting fucked or we do but we don’t realize by how much.

It was an eye opener to actually look at it since your health insurance is taken from your paycheck before you actually see it so most people don’t even think about it.

To make.matters worse what is to say, Trump gets elected again but then the GOP find him unfit to serve because of his age and Vance become POTUS…

You are just being pedantic. Food insecurity is the term used for people who may have to skip meals because they lack money to but it, it is not provided by programs in schools/communities, or they have food but it is inadequate to meet their dietary needs to grow/develope or even live.

So yes you could not be “starving”, as you put it, because you can go to the corner store or whatever and buy a candy bar, but that doesn’t mean that same candy bar is going to sustain you. You body will starve because it lacks vital nutrients.

Do better.

12% of the population of the US would like to have a word with you.

I pay my portion of my health coverage at a little under 20% of my paycheck for a family plan. That is technically half since my employer pays a portion as well. If taxes would be raised to that point or even less than what I am paying now I would not care in the slightest. Hell I would welcome it. If it is more I would be a little more upset but if I do t have to pay co pays or the other crap a medical bill generates like the portion my health coverage doesn’t pay than in my eyes it again balances out.

Probably not since it could very well be a bot and it just posted it’s copy pasta in the wrong spot.

Putting a little Hauk Tuah on that 50.

If they float, it typically means the person is consuming too much fat in their diet. Not always but moat times.

Do you want real life Exo Squad? Because this is how you get Exo Squad.

Joking aside, while this may be faster, I think it would safer in the long run to keep focusing on actually getting to space and achieving faster than rockwt/thruster propulsion and let evolution work with that.

I know you are being a little facetious but I think there really is a nugget of truth there. I didn’t full realize how much my Healthcare is, until this past reup and it got me thinking how many people probably don’t realize how much they are paying because it is a pre-tax deduction so they technically don’t even see the bill to realize how much they are paying.

Because they would also be paying for yours as well…

I swear people can not grasp that concept. This is not directed at you OP. I am just piggybacking my literal astonishment at these peoples cognitive dissonance.
