Collusion / Taxes

[Kooki]

Friday an ABC news anchor reported that one of the ppl in the Russia collusion investigation said that the collusion was linked directly to Pres. Trump.  That was not true, so he got put on 30 day holiday w/o pay for not properly checking his story.  As a result the american stock market lost 350 points in 30 min.    Now there is a call for a law suit against ABC to compensate all the ppl who lost money in the stock market as a result of this persons fake news.  

 

Friday, the GOP in the senate passed the tax overhaul bill along party lines 51/49.  I dont know why Dems wont work for the ppl like congress was set up to do.

 

Pres. Trump gave a Christmas speech the other day kicking off the christmas season.  He said basically that we need to remember what christmas is all about and its ok now to say Merry Cristmas again w/o the fear of being offensive.

Or, we could stop getting our dicks twisted over who isn't "looking the part" of American, and focus on the issues we all need to look at. Tax reform is a band-aid just like the ACA was. In both cases, the parties sold out and removed the good parts of their proposals to do favors for special interest so they could get the votes. The sooner people realize this government is not acting in the interest of the people, regardless of "party", the sooner we can start really fixing things.

Everyone in this country is getting smashed between the twin millstones of taxation and inflation. The dollar is losing its near monopoly on global reserve currencies. Our schools are getting worse by the year due to the "fix" that the last partisan hacks tried. Our people are getting sick more frequently and with more chronic preventable diseases than any other first-world nation. Our jobs market is imploding because we have removed all the regulations that protected workers, and replaced them with regulations creating corporate-friendly markets in which small businesses are suffocated or bought out.

So, wish me a happy Kwanza, or Merry Christmas, but don't believe the hype that this tax bill is anything but another false promise by ideologically bankrupt criminals. We really need to fire the entire government and start fresh with regular people who want to improve the average American's quality of life. Quit paying your taxes, buy a rifle, and be ready to help reform or replace the entire system with a better system in the next few years. Otherwise, while we blame other citizens for our shared suffering, we're going to be driven into the ground by the special interests.

Our gaming forum is not a place for politics. It will just turn into a pissing match with peoples  feelings getting hurt and attacking others.
