Well, traditionally…

Part of me wants average people to realize the Republican leadership isn’t on their side. The other part of me realizes once normal people take notice, it will be too late.

I am in the US… still up. Very upset this is happening again, I think I’m going to put on Idiocracy and pass out.

I am not buying any more of their remastered games. War2 has a special place in my life, and I’m glad another generation is able try it, but they are going to screw it up.

I wish Blizzard would have made Warcraft 4 when they were still Blizzard.

There ain’t no dam way

They are super common where weed is legal. People fly into somewhere like Denver for the weekend to catch a show. Rather than buying a reusable battery, they will get a disposable vape (and probably some gummies).

Then it ends up in the landfill or as litter. I am in favor of making these one time use electronics illegal (along with single use plastics like balloons, plastic silverware, etc… but that is another thread)

How about making sure 100% of US residents have access to clean, safe tap water first? Eliminate lead and forever chemicals. I don’t feel strongly about fluoride, I do feel strongly you should be able to drink water from your kitchen sink without having to worry.

🤮

It’s infuriating are schools aren’t doing a better job.

We need ranked choice voting, so you can vote for who you actually support without throwing your vote away.

Replace Swift with Putin and I’m back on board.

Buckle up, this ride is just starting.

Really surprising it isn’t a teenage boy.

It won’t be over when it’s over. If Trump loses we’ll never hear the end of how he was cheated and maga people will get extra weird, maybe violent.

If Trump wins, we’ll have trump for president, which from experience is also not normal.

I feel like the US flag should also be on top.

Lol. Sad, true.

In what way would “we’re cutting property tax in half!” not work? No one enjoys paying these taxes. But if the state can’t slash the rate in half and pay for it, how will just throwing it out the window with no concrete plan do any better?

I agree property taxes are problematic for fixed income people and low income people. I just think they need to show how they can pay for essential services and cut taxes at the same time, without just gesturing to money they may tap into.

I don’t understand why it has to be all or nothing? It seems like they could reduce property taxes, see if the other funding sources can cover the difference, and measure how it impacts programs that were traditionally funded by these taxes. If they can prove it covers the difference with no impact, then think about reducing the tax rate further…

If they approach the change incrementally it would benefit everyone. If they instantly reduce the tax rate to 0% it most benefits the rich folks with expensive property.

Yeah a dozen or so commits updating readme files isn’t exactly compelling stuff. Any of us could do this in five minutes on GitHub.

Shit, he probably won’t last long before senility or old age gets him. Then we have old president JD to look forward to
