@Little Earl Your savior still hates you. You derive your scripture and beliefs from your politics. The definition of a modern pharisee. 

 

Just have to remind you occasionally. 

yes, you are an idiot.   Thanks for reminding me how much of an idiot you really are.

 

Reagan cutting taxes when they were super high significantly helped the economy.

Here’s one where the Dems are putting forth a good new bill that would benefit the working class and you can be sure the GOP will kill it.

Democrats have introduced bicameral legislation this week to take a step toward getting Wall Street out of the housing market amid a crisis during which house prices have soared to record highs.
 

The bill would ban hedge funds from buying and owning single-family homes. The legislation would require hedge funds to sell off their stock of single-family homes over the next 10 years and would then implement an outright ban. For every single-family home a hedge fund ownsover a certain limit each year, it would be subject to a tax penalty, the revenues from which would be used for down payment assistance programs for those seeking to buy their first home from a hedge fund. 
 

The End Hedge Fund Control of American Homes Act of 2023 was introduced by Rep. Adam Smith (D-Washington) and Sen. Jeff Merkley (D-Oregon). The lawmakers say that the only purpose for hedge funds to own homes is to make profits and that such investing has only made it more difficult for working class Americans to afford to buy a home.

Yeah, can't wait for that to get shot down soundly in the house and then never spoken about once on any conservative outlet.

The Biden Administration says it seeks to use march-in-rights for certain prescription drugs to lower prices. Today it unveiled a roadmap that would allow the federal government to grant licenses to third parties for products developed using federal funds if the original patent holder does not make them available to the public on “reasonable terms.” It’s unclear, however, which drugs would meet the standard of “reasonable terms.”

 

On X (formerly known as Twitter) President Biden posted that his Administration is “proposing that if a drug made using taxpayer funds is not reasonably available to Americans, the government reserves the right to “march in” and license that drug to another manufacturer who could sell it for less.”

President Joe Biden will sign a proclamation to pardon certain marijuana offenses Friday, building on broader action he took last year for thousands of people convicted of possession under federal law, the White House said.

 
The new pardons target "additional offenses of simple possession and use of marijuana under federal and D.C. law," Biden said in a statement. Further details have not been announced; a White House official said in a statement that the proclamation includes offenses related to "use and possession on certain Federal lands," provisions that weren't covered by the 2022 proclamation.

 

"Criminal records for marijuana use and possession have imposed needless barriers to employment, housing, and educational opportunities," Biden said in the statement. "Too many lives have been upended because of our failed approach to marijuana. It’s time that we right these wrongs."

The USPS negotiates through collective bargaining with the union separate from this raise.

 

It could indirectly help me get a raise but I do not get this raise.

Don't fret, our raises are usually pretty good and in case you missed it, UPS got a monster raise on their latest contract. All this will be factored into our newest contract!
