    "There is no question former President Trump bears moral responsibility. His supporters stormed the Capitol because of the unhinged falsehoods he shouted into the world’s largest megaphone," McConnell wrote. "His behavior during and after the chaos was also unconscionable, from attacking Vice President Mike Pence during the riot to praising the criminals after it ended."

    Why do you think you have the right to others peoples property and how can you define taking from one against their will to give to another as compassionate?

    Hiding behind the full force of government may make something legal but that doesn't make it moral

    Nope. Not gonna be lectured on morality and proper use of public funds by someone who obviously supported the expenditure of three trillion tax payer dollars on the catastrophically stupid and immoral Iraq War Disaster.

    Sidebar: feel free to move to a country that does not have a taxation system and does not provide to some extent for the public commons and the public welfare. Somalia, perhaps?

    To prevent run away inflation that would have a far greater impact. I thought you believed in monetarism or are you still into that supply side mythology horse shit?

    We were speaking in terms of the poor and those on fixed incomes. Rates aren't at zero to stop inflation.

    I see far more conservatives these days who are white trailer trash on the dole and resentful as hell that the modern world has left them behind and they don't have the skills, ability or talent to keep up.

    So spare me the empty rhetoric you hear on right wing radio while driving your fifteen year old pick up. I'm trying to enjoy my glass of 18 year Glinlivits and an OpusX that I bought with my performance bonus and your crying is killing my warm fuzzy feeling.

    You obviously miss the point. Personally I make sure the gobblement gets as little as possible. You do too.

    Thanks for confirming you think you have a right to another's property.

    yEP... As I have been saying, it will be funny, in a sad kinda way...

    Their mysterious bad backs necessitating their early retirements/disabilities for the rest of their lives when the factory closed......

    I had a friend who I once worked w/ many years ago........ True story~ I run into him @ the store & he was most recently working in construction "till he hurt his back" a few years ago.....

    He is on some type of perm disability

    I asked him whats up today & he says he was going water skiing @ Folsom lake.. We said our goodbyes & I watched him walk out the store holding a 30 pack of bud light, no leaning etc.... Watching a short guy w/ a bad back holding that thirty made my back sore watching him.
