Thanks, Biden!!!

[Fuzzy1975]

Or is there anything Biden can ever do you would be happy with?

NO there is nothing Biden could ever do for this poor excuse for a human. If Biden stopped all the illegal immigration he'd be the first one complaining about the price of produce rising because there'd be no illegals to pick it.

The MAGAt contingent of welfare ranchers in southern Arizona don't know whether to shit or go blind. On one hand they want cheap labor. On the other hand, they want to shoot brown migrants. Such a dilemma.

Oh well, they'll just ask for a bigger handout in the next Farm Bill.

 

[PaxNurgle]

That's actually a good point that you don't hear a lot about.

 

[coati]

There are so many jobs that we depend upon southern border migrants to do, and all of them require skills that most slothful Americans are no longer willing to develop. It takes skill to rapidly and efficiently do farm work and manufacturing work. It takes great skill to do stucco and concrete work the right way. All the construction trades depend upon first generation migrants in the Southwest. Whenever I hire subcontractors for my construction projects, Spanish is the required language.

Biden is pushing for comprehensive immigration reform, not simply building walls, setting out razor wire, and kicking all the migrants out of the country.

I have no issue with hiring non citizens for available jobs. Give them a green card and they can cross the border.

I'm against doing that backwards. Letting them cross first then allowing them to work violates the law.

For the past two decades, dating back to when G.W. Bush was rebuffed on this issue, the GOP majority wanted no talk about how to issue the appropriate number of green cards, because that would be part of comprehensive immigration reform.

They would rather score cheap points with their political base by referring to immigrants as rapists, drug traffickers, and murderers.

IRS collected $360M more from rich tax cheats as its funding is threatened yet again​

WASHINGTON -- The IRS says it has collected an additional $360 million in overdue taxes from delinquent millionaires as the agency's leadership tries to promote the latest work it has done to modernize the agency with Inflation Reduction Act funding that Republicans are threatening to chip away.

You do understand, I hope, that referring to past eras as a modern day talking point is stupid, yes?


Or must we discuss how D's used to be in favor of slavery and how modern day nanny state efforts are equivalent?

And that's without even getting into the discussion about how I stated what I believe and not the RNC platform.

This certainly explains why your sad life is full of you making the same mistakes over and over again.

Say what???

The problem with your rant is that is goes directly against the writings that were created at the time. SCOTUS explored all of that in Heller and determined what the intent of the framers was based on those historical documents. The 2A is not tied to milita service. It never was. Anyone who's taken an elementary school history class KNOWS that ordinary people publicly carried arms in their daily lives for the first 150 years of this Nation's history.

Except, apparently, you.

You want a ban. Everything you propose is geared toward a universal gun ban. You have no suggestions other than a ban through regulation and restriction.

Nope, wrong again.

The 2A specifically says that the right of the people is to "keep and bear arms." It doesn't say "receive and bear arms in militia service."

Simple, they'll just tell the uninformed that they didn't have those rights "given" to them in the first place.

There's an entire line of thinking that because the 2A is about "A well regulated Militia..." that weapons of war are the weapons "the people" are supposed to have. Limiting their right to keep and bear those arms violates the strict letter of the Constitution as well as the understanding of the Framers.

You're a fucking idiot.

Shall:


Further, in interpreting Statutes and Constitutional clauses/amendments, Canons
of Statutory Interpretation require that Statutes and Constitutional
clauses/amendments are to be read as a whole, in context, and, if possible,
the court is to give effect to every word.

So, your idea that the words in the 2nd Amendment can just be ignored
is complete bullshit. Any interpretation REQUIRES that "...shall not" be given
effect as a MANDATORY restriction. Further your intended or contemplated
interpretation of not including them as part of what the Amendment means, is
not allowed because they MUST be included, in context, and given effect.


Saying otherwise means you're a fucking idiot. Which we already know.

Shall I go get more examples of you referring to past era's as modern talking points?

Dow Climbs Above 38000 to a Record; S&P 500 Reaches High​

Thanks, Biden, for not confusing Nikki Haley with Nancy Pelosi, as well as not being the subject of 90 indictments.

Your predecessor continues to set a very low bar.

How's the recession going?

https://www.bea.gov/news/2024/gross-domestic-product-fourth-quarter-and-year-2023-advance-estimate

Real GDP increased 2.5 percent in 2023 (from the 2022 annual level to the 2023 annual level), compared with an increase of 1.9 percent in 2022 (table 1). The increase in real GDP in 2023 primarily reflected increases in consumer spending, nonresidential fixed investment, state and local government spending, exports, and federal government spending that were partly offset by decreases in residential fixed investment and inventory investment. Imports decreased (table 2).

There is a separate process for the migrant workers. State Law.
Seasonal migrant labor is a completely different topic and set of provisions.

Inflation is going down too. Prices are not. Cost of oil is increasing since oBiden severely increased our dependence on foreign oil and gas.
The recession remains strong in other countries.
The US finances are not so healthy as media like you link can make them look. What they are is resilient. We can sustain much longer than other countries.
The mostly green stock market is speculation very similar to that what Clinton enjoyed during his presidency. Personally I have not yet understood how or why AI is generating this level. However the market caps of most companies are idle. Microsoft is setting records. The financial media has been poo pooing Apple yet its stock continues to climb.
Your link is an exciting look at a microcosm of money.
It is also perilous. This oBiden regime has no ability to communicate with our adversaries as Trump did. Afraid of Putin, did not prevent the invasion of Ukraine. Funded an islamic blunder in the middle east and has joined the fray. Emboldened the Chinese which is the real worry. You think covid was globally bad. Wait till they take out the electric grid in Taiwan and halt the semiconductor production. That will impose a repossession like no one has ever imagined. Today thanks to the biden regime is more possible than ever!

Yes....interesting that.

Cost of oil is increasing since oBiden severely increased our dependence on foreign oil and gas.

We're producing more oil and gas than we ever have.

The recession remains strong in other countries.

Yes, the US is not in a recession.

The US finances are not so healthy as media like you link can make them look. What they are is resilient.

The economy is strong, as all numbers demonstrate.

We can sustain much longer than other countries.
The mostly green stock market is speculation very similar to that what Clinton enjoyed during his presidency. Personally I have not yet understood how or why AI is generating this level.

Wtf are you talking about?

However the market caps of most companies are idle. Microsoft is setting records. The financial media has been poo pooing Apple yet its stock continues to climb.

The economy

It is also perilous. This oBiden regime has no ability to communicate with our adversaries as Trump did.

If you mean kissing their ass as 45 did....then correct.

Afraid of Putin, did not prevent the invasion of Ukraine.

Russia made the decision to invade Ukraine.

Funded an islamic blunder in the middle east and has joined the fray. Emboldened the Chinese which is the real worry. You think covid was globally bad. Wait till they take out the electric grid in Taiwan and halt the semiconductor production. That will impose a repossession like no one has ever imagined. Today thanks to the biden regime is more possible than ever!

Biden created an amazing increase in inflation and it is now decreasing. Which he is trying to take credit for. However the massive price increase as result of his inflation folly is not subsiding. Others are pointing out there is no recession. Yet no one can afford to eat. We eat to survive now. Can't afford his gas either. Which is pushing up the price of everything else. Oh wait inflation is going down but cost in the grocery store is still increasing. And god forbid you want a new piece of furniture or to replace a something that broke or wore out.
My preferred toothpaste is 6$ a tube. I never imagined the prices we are seeing now. But when Jimmy Carter fucked us with inflation I could not believe those increases that never came back to what was normal levels.

You seem to only take tidbits out of context and only see an overview of the reality of the current world situation.

Deny all you like.

Joe didn't do that. The entire world is seeing price increases. Joe has no effect on any other country.

Things are better. People have jobs. People have money. They buy more things. That is good.

It's almost too strong.


Wasn't very long ago that the S&P was struggling to get to 4500. Now it's almost at 4900.

That is not entirely true. Most of the people laid off when I was that went back to work have a job they do not enjoy and the money does not buy near as much.
The jobs biden brags about and much lower paying and not in the industries that make ours or the world economy strong.
You like most of the others here are in denial.

 

[jaF0]

Though I'm not personally doing as well as I'd like, I can see beyond myself and recognize that others are better off than they were three years ago.
