Ah, the old 'love it or leave it' response.

Personally when I encounter a steaming pile, I'm inclined to flush it rather than walking away and leaving for someone else to fix.

So, where are your numbers?

Claims without evidence are given all their due consideration.

LOL!

Not only is it not luck, it's not true:

BTW, it's illustrative to compare the literacy rates of the top five states vs the bottom five states.

"The literacy figure that people cite"47%"is from a single analysis conducted by the National Institute for Literacy in 1998 based on data collected in 1993, nearly 30 years ago. While this data is extremely outdated and doesn't take into account changes in the landscape over the past 30 years, it was also not very reliable even when it was published. In the National Institute for Literacy's report, several limitations were documented, the most notable being that the validity was only confirmed at the county-level. Additionally, the report included a note that Detroit's margin of error was greater than 5 percentage points, but did not include details about the size."

"Honest question - of the $7T spent annually, what % is fraud and abuse?
#20 | Posted by ScottS at 2025-03-20 07:21 AM"

Ask DOGE.

Two honest questions:
1. How much money due to fraud/abuse has DOGE saved?
2. How much did it cost to save that amount of money?
IOW, is DOGE doing its job?

It's easy to simply cut spending.
One can save money by never changing the oil in one's car. However, that's not a prudent plan.

"Lastly, I find it really odd that you are taking this 'dying to the last man' to defend Ukraine while simultaneously fighting for the US to have open borders and likely would try to imprison me if I used deadly force against a home invader. Surely defending the integrity of my home would be a higher justification than some vacant field half way around the world. Why the double-standard?
#53 | Posted by ScottS at 2025-03-18 08:58 PM"

Why the double standard indeed!

Isn't defending the integrity of your home just a case of a 'territorial dispute'? After all, you can just relocate to another place more to your liking after the home invader takes what they want. You can also be confident that the home invader won't come to your new place because they can be trusted (just like one can trust the Russians: see the Budapest Memorandum of about thirty years ago!). If one follows the actions of the Russians rather than what they say, there's little mystery as to why the Ukrainians are fighting.

Apparently that attempt at humor went completely over your head.

Now, to answer your question, personally I'm more concerned about any powerful person/party that circumvents/ignores the law. Yes, the law might be imperfect, but if the law is not followed then our republic no longer exists. There are ways to deal with imperfect law.

Regardless of what you think, this is not about you.

LOL! If you had stopped at "idk", this might have been a useful posting.

By multiple metrics, Mississippi is considered to be the poorest state in the USA.
Please explain how the 'richest Provence(sic) in Canada' is poorer than Mississippi.
Feel free to choose a Canadian Province, BUT be prepared to explain your choice!

I keep seeing this statistic (or something close to it) being repeatedly touted.

Would you provide a source for this claim?

"Another Democrat lie exposed by Fox News

The only thing exposed is your ability to read and comprehend. It's right there both in the article and in the headline of this thread. A Norway firm refuses to supply fuel, not the entire country of Norway.

Please do continue tho'. It makes for light entertainment.

So, where does the $5M go?
"Pay down the deficit" *wink wink*

No doubt these wealthy new citizens will be "paying a lot of taxes" (just like the current wealthy citizens are doing now LOL!).

How is this an improvement over the EB-5 program? Oh, right, it's direct $$$ and not an allocated investment. So much easier to "transfer" $$$ to some "worthy cause".

Hey, how about letting current citizens, who want to leave the USA, sell their citizenship for $5M? Sounds like it would be a win-win that would cut out the middle man!

I wonder how long it'll be before President Donald "Neville Chamberlain" declares peace for our time.

United Stupids of America

"The bird flu has resulted in many birds dying or having to be euthanized. What has that got to do with Trump? It's the same with gas prices, they are affected by the weather, refinery maintenance and several other factors. It's easy to blame Trump, even though he cannot control what the prices are. Does anyone think he wouldn't do it if he could?

Millions of folks (including then VP Kamala Harris) understood the root causes of high egg prices, so they were not fooled by then former President Trump's claims to immediately lower the egg prices on Day One. What you're observing now is not honest questioning of why the egg prices are not lower. Rather, it is the mocking of those who were fooled by such claims. I suspect there'll be more well-deserved mocking in the future. Before you give President Trump a "pass" due to his ignorance and if you believe the current egg price situation is a result of the bird flu virus, please explain President Trump's promotion of Robert Kennedy for Health Secretary. At some point, one should realize this situation is due to (at best) willful ignorance.

A President can project the appearance of security, stability, and maturity which will assure the general populous that a smooth transition is taking place from the old administration to the new administration. A President may have an agenda that incorporates change, but a good captain knows how to make a course correction without recklessly jerking the tiller. No one benefits from having a loose cannon on board.

In short, a President's job #1 is to be a leader!

Please provide evidence of who did these declarations.
Just to cut to the chase: FaceBook postings don't count as evidence.

Unless you say you believe there will be a second coming as ordained in the Bible, I'm not interested in anything you have to say on this subject.
Don't refer to the Bible to justify your opinion unless you accept it as divinely inspired by God.

Actually, Corky's beliefs are irrelevant to this discussion.
Questioning Corky's beliefs as a reason to avoid the discussion is a non sequitur.

So, will they add a French version after the US "acquires" Canada?

Serious question:
When will Americans be required to speak proper English?

I'm not sure what others are experiencing, but this article is behind a paywall for me.

Given that, how about enumerating what facts are in the article.
