POLITICAL THREAD

[vhcat1970]

Well, each to their own I guess. I have teams I like, I play fantasy football, sometimes the teams I like are in the SB. I would like to be able to watch without being bombarded with this $h1T and I think I speak for a good majority of true fans of the sport when I say that.

Part of why I don't care.

Are we all just supposed to follow your lead and not give a crap?

I wouldn't ask anyone to follow my lead on sports. But the further a sport gets from playing it for fun, the more my interest drops. Have no desire to make networks/owners/players rich. NFL was much better when players had to work jobs offseason.

Are you a better person than us for not giving a crap?

Are you better than me for giving a crap?

SMDH. Condescending much? The Education system has been failing kids for a long time. I know this. Is it possible I can point out an example of that?

You can, but it's so redundant & well-known that why bother?

A few months ago Bill Burr took a hard 180° turn towards being woke. Now we find out he started playing gigs in Saudi Arabia.

Now it all makes sense.

Please help me how woke & Saudi Arabia fit to together. Blows my mind.

Re: property taxes, ................. If they want a tax for public services and schools, collect that another way.

What might that way or ways be?

Regardless, own a small house that's not valuable & you avoid a lot of property taxes.

A lot of traing going on. My Company just signed big contracts with Honda, Rockwell and Lilly to build training labs and equipment to train employees on new technology. Also doing a lot with the Technical Colleges like Ivy Tech

Great. But apparently not enough.

I still don't get why people are fired up over 85K jobs in a 164M jobs economy. Seems there's way bigger issues around.

 

[vhcat1970]

Somebody said here today/yesterday that only 20% of Congress members are smart. Trump obviously thinks it's a lot more.

 

[vhcat1970]

If the UK job is open at the same time the Florida job is open, who do you think wins that battle if both call him? They should call Saban and Urban Meyer too, Would be a waste of time though.

We had Parcells till the Cowboys got in the way - another reason to hate the NFL. .

Because maybe they believe we should hire Americans instead of farming them out. A lot of young people would love to have an 85k job

Keep renting. I’ll keep collecting monthly positive cash flow, yearly gains in equity, and large tax deductions on my rentals.

Don't forget the repairs & maintenance & insurance & taxes.

It's not a $85K/yr job. It's 85K H1-B visas. But yes, lots would like a job that pays $85K/yr - but another subject.

wonder where all the antisemitism is coming from? I mean what could possibly cause this to rear its head in Europe? Totally baffling that it was effectively eliminated until fairly recently...you just never know when something like spontaneous hatred will pop up from a place like Britain I guess.

Those women absolutely knew what they were getting. The second tweet in that thread contains all of the documentation she has collected. The following tweets in that big thread explain the significance of each doc.


The below digging is mostly just me. This insignificant superintendent has piqued my interest. The big x thread listed this receipt as what his Erie, pa district paid Ray and Associates(head hunter firm) to provide three candidates for their superintendent search. Guess which firm also conducted the superintendent search in Des Moine? Yeppers and guess which firm searches the big jobs in St Louis? same,same, same.

Which led me to who is Ray and Assoc? They are a pretty big firm started in 1975, but no real info on them. Ok, who's their CEO?

View attachment 938230






She has an EdD. Do all of the Ed.Ds pad their resume. She is currently CEO of five orgs.

View attachment 938228






But, her previous employment...

Of course

View attachment 938223

So she's a full-time CEO of 4 different companies at once?

Here's a conundrum. pretty much all the outlets and options are becoming pricey. but none of the streaming services work without internet access which has a cost of it's own. Spectrum, AT&T Fiber and i think Starlink are what I can get in my fairly rural neighborhood. probably a Verizon or T-Mobile satellite thing as well, but not going down that path. Anywho, on top of whatever TV plan, you pay for you have that ISP cost to factor into it all.
So I want to have ESPN+ mainly so I can watch my nephews games and some other sports that end up on there, plus the UK games that end up on it. But I can't have that without having the whole Disney Plus thing. and the ESPN packages require you to have a home streaming package for it to function. So I would have to pay for something like Spectrum AND Disney+ to be able to stream those. I can't just have an independent ESPN+ account to stream games. They've really made it confusing as all get out.

Streaming services like Hulu and YouTube TV are not that much cheaper than cable anymore.

All tax deductions.

Vance: "When the government gives billions of dollars to New York for Medicaid, that frees up state money in New York that can then be spent on illegals. It's like if you give a mobster $100 but he PROMISES you he won't spend the money to buy a gun and commit a crime. Well, he takes the $100 you gave him and buys food, and then takes the money he would have spent on food and uses that money to buy the gun instead.

This is what "money is fungible" means. Additionally, because medical services are limited in supply, when an illegal accesses health. care, it drives up the cost for everyone. So New Yorkers are paying a higher price for medical services, and the federal government is subsidizing those higher prices. So everyone in the media, from George Stephanopoulos to Jake Tapper, repeating these Democrat talking points, is engaged in the Democrat propaganda war.

Democrats shut down the government to give health care money to illegal aliens. It's really that simple."

Quite a bit off. Please tell me how far off on a 250,000 purchase?


AI says-For a home with $250,000 in dwelling coverage, the national average for homeowners insurance is approximately $1,679 per year, or about $140 per month


I estimated 150 for insurance per month, so I was high by 10 dollars.

Just Roughly looking at AI for Kentucky I found a reply at about $190. I don’t think you’re THAT far off but I definitely think it’s optimistic, to say the least.

Right on time, get home today and the property tax bill was waiting. The government making me pay the value of something annually that has zero value until it’s sold. What a damnable system.

 

[BBlueD]

So she's a full-time CEO of 4 different companies at once?

I pointed out five, but in my haste I left off two more. Seven. The former Walz Chief Equity Officer is currently CEO of seven firms per her Linkedin.


Two more:






My main points being the incestuous three-way between the Dem political party, public education and the always exhaustive national search committees presented by a lefty headhunter firm. That woman seven-time-concurrent ceo was not affiliated with the firm when the firm coincidentally hired to recruit applicants for his last three jobs. I'm stating that the headhunter firm has an internal culture that would hire a CEO for itself like her.

Well, and these Ed.Ds can't help resume enhancers.

Young people aren’t denied access to buy a house. They have to earn a house with a job and small down payment, as it should be. There are thousands of houses for sale in the south east for less than 250,000.

The rates were held at zero too long and millions of people took advantage.

How exactly does a young couple save that down payment when inflation has wrecked the economy? I’d love it if it were that easy.

It's called monopoly public school systems & the teachers' unions that run them.

For 40 years, the colleges have added more and more staff. To pay for it, they needed more and more customers. The government was more than willing to oblige the loans, and the high schools were more than happy to tell kids they’d be a failure without a college degree.

All three legs of this stool overwhelmingly leftist, by the way. Each with much to gain ideologically.

Which was my point. They, and we, have been conditioned to be non-tribal and to “not see race” at precisely the moment in history when people are being imported who absolutely are tribal and in fact very hostile to us.

It’s a very uncomfortable thing to have to consider that some things from the past that we were told were racist, were in fact common sense.

Does anybody here know someone in Britain that has shared their opinion about that situation? I’d love to know what they are thinking.

Great decision. What a bizarre campaign.

Last time I dined at Cracker Barrel was maybe 2018 at Cookville, TN with my cousin, Bob (RIP). Good food, but crowded and a 30-60 minute wait for open table.

They’re in a hell of a state. If people who are born there are still jihadist, it’s time to admit multiculturalism has failed and begin mass deportations. The Muslims will literally burn that country down on the way out.

The same thing is happening here. Who’s going to do something about Dearborn? Nobody, probably. Because doing something means, in the end, violence.
