#3-- some protesters burned masks outside the capital building if I remember correctly. I was disappointed to see a mother encouraging children to throw masks in the fire. Completely irresponsible...

I don't have any issue with actual immigration. People should be able to make a better life for themselves. My problem is that we have so many safety nets providing an incentive to choose us over any where else. If birthright citizenship was limited to those born with one citizen parent, and safety nets were only for citizens (including immigrants that become citizens) it wouldn't cost so much to American tax payers. Stop trying to make this a race issue. I base my opinion on my experiences and being a tax payer.

This became a problem when the government started paying rent, food, and medical for poor people. If just anyone that is a citizen qualifies, and all it takes to be a citizen is to be born on our soil, there is incentive to travel here. I worked in the social services office for a time in Cali and until u experience it you have no idea how rampant it is. We even received tips that a couple beauty businesses were giving massages and billing it to the welfare medi-cal card lying about the service provided. This has absolutely nothing to do with skin color and is done by a full rainbow of nationalities down there. There was more than one resort that was advertising itself as the perfect place to vacation and have your baby. They really were flying in pregnant women from China so they would deliver in California at an exclusive resort and the baby would have dual citizenship.

I would support immigration more if our social welfare programs were more limited. The absolute fact of what I witnessed living in California is that immigrants have one child after another in order to inflate their monthly check. As a non-citizen the parent is not on the claim and therefore every child qualifies. If a citizen already on welfare has a child, the new child does not qualify. Birthright citizenship should be changed to require one US Citizen parent, not simply born on the soil.

#29 netflix already limits how many streams you can have running at a time. I have "upgraded" so I pay for up to four devices streaming at a time. Their base subscription I believe is two. I've never subscribed to hulu.

Plus, my bill went up $2 in February and I'm playing $17.99 per month now. If they reduce my kids' ability to use it I'll happily spend that money on something else...

My college son mostly lives with us but has started spending more time at his girlfriend's apartment. He uses netflix on his ps4 and takes it with him. Sounds like this could limit his ability to sign in if he's not at home? I don't watch Netflix but have the streaming service for up to four devices at a time because all three of my kids enjoy the flexibility. I will certainly cancel altogether if they go through with this.

Ever wonder how many of the DRetort's Tin Foil Trumptilians were there?

I wondered if Jeff was there with his fence post... I tease but only because it really disappoints me how hoodwinked I was into thinking he was more moderate than he is. He pretty much supported Trump while saying he needed more evidence. We need moderates. We need give and take.

So, on one of the videos I have seen of people interviewing Trump supporters at rallies there was a person (I think woman) that said they guarantee Biden will never be the next POTUS and they would eat an old shoe. Cant wait to see that...

They are checking and re-checking the troops that are being called in. I saw this morning that they are also using bomb sniffing dogs on the military busses and other vehicles entering the gates. I sure hope that if anything untoward was being planned from the inside it is thwarted.

The lady I mentioned the other day with the 80's hair and the quack conspiracy theories said her son is a NG that is now in DC for this. She said something big was going to happen and he had to be there. She is still sure something will go down and that Biden will never be sworn in. I sure hope she is wrong. I will say it doesnt sound like her son is the quack she is, but you never know.

#22 Rusty. You made me think of something else about her I'm used to now but surprised me when I met her ten years ago. She still styles her hair in the 80's big feathered-curly mess. She's around fifty and does her hair and makeup like she stepped out of an eighties music video...

#18 -- I want to add that she insists nobody should be watching the "fake news" on TV, and she gets her information from podcasts, though I dont know who she watches.

A lady that I have mutual friends with is completely off her rocker. She says that Bill Clinton was killed in early December, the Q-anon Shamon guy is really a military officer and was on an assigned mission to take Pelosi's laptop, and that Pelosi has now been apprehended at an airport attempting to flee the country so we wont see her anymore. (Apparently she said the Pelosi thing yesterday and today not realizing that Pelosi has been active in the House impeaching Trump...) She says that all the laptops will be used to expose the Dems in congress that cooperatively own an island where they sex traffic children as well as kill them for some youth potion they make. I am not kidding. This woman was completely normal for all I could see until about 6 months ago. It has been a rapid downward spiral for her. I had not seen her in two and a half months because of covid but saw her today and my mind is blown. Thank the gods my Dad is not that level of crazy.
