Surban mom.
You can tax all sorts of things that effectively eliminates that class. Capital gains, assets, income, etc. Choose a number and tax the shit out of anything above it. I don’t even think the government needs that much money - but I really don’t want that class to exist anymore. Let’s make it happen.
I’m like 97% sure that this sport started on a dare.
Oh yeah, it is a bit of a nightmare. We fry outside.
I watched a few clips. Her behavior in the hearing was abhorrent. And her overall job performance is shameful. I wish she’d slither back into whatever hole she came from.
I use them interchangeably. 🤷
Deep fryer owner here. Nothing I’ve fried has been made worse by the deep fryer - and most things are substantially better. I do not regret the purchase.
Are you in the PNW? I wonder if there are safer places to forage than others.
I live in the PNW, where there are several varieties of poisonous mushrooms, including death caps. Apparently people can safely forage for mushrooms - but it scares the crap out of me because of the exact scenario in this article.
How many times do we have to tell this lady no?
Yes! From my perspective, taxing the rich is essential to ensuring we don’t have a class if people above the law. What we are learning in the Epstein files (at a minimum) is that money and power can insulate a person from accountability. I’d like to see that class taxed until it doesn’t exist.
I kinda feel bad for this lady. I mean, we don’t know why she’s kept such a terrible job (is it the benefits for a sick kiddo, or she’s trying but the economy is shit, or something else entirely). Not everyone has the luxury to up and quit a job.
That reminds me of the Nike swoosh origin story.
If you don’t feel like your representatives are adequately representing you (God knows I don’t), this is a good time to find a primary candidate to support (monetarily or with your time) - or even file to run yourself. Every house representative is up for reelection in November.
There are moments in time when we need leaders to look well beyond party and politics - and we need them to recalibrate the system as a whole. Beyond the horrendous actions of our administration that need to be reigned by n and have consequences, we can’t even have the right kinds of discussions because of money in politics and elected officials that have been in role for too long (or are too old). I am looking for the candidate who can do help to hit the reset button - and it sure as shit isn’t my current representative. Does anyone know of there is anyone out there trying to get a new crop of Democrats into office?
Don’t forget, Vance and Miller were out there telling everyone ICE has total immunity. They’ve got to go too. Keep the pressure on your elected officials.
I lived in both. I loved living in the city for anonymity - I could go anywhere without fear of someone talking to me. I love living in the burbs for the community - we know our neighbors and they know us/our kids. Both have value for different times in people’s lives.
Was it his trigger finger? Because at this point I think that’s self-defense
What the hell did I just watch? Are my tax dollars going to this? JFC.
