Dump Term 2, Part 2: "A third term would be a big shattering."

Every Democrat under 40 wants to kick over the table. That is where to start.

Absolutely nothing stops any Democrat from standing up and saying my plan is everyone with incomes in the bottom 80% has their taxes cut in half while everyone with incomes in the top 10% has their taxes doubled.

Permanent majority.

Really makes you think why they haven't done that the last 50 years. It's almost as if the power brokers in the Democratic party come from the same class as the GOP's, and scream about social issues 24/7 to distract from them doing nothing on fiscal and monetary.
BINGO, the power brokers are cut from essentially the same cloth.

Democrats in power have made millions of dollars off their time in Congress. If they do this, they are essentially raising the tax on themselves.

"We can talk a big game, but when it comes down to it, we are going to cover our own a**es."

No different than the Republicans pandering to the backwoods and backwater voters.

"We are going to kick out all those illegals that have taken jobs away from you. But while we do that, we are going to take away your SNAP benefits, healthcare, and any possible education you may have had access to."
 
So why are you still here? Why aren’t you fleeing now?
If it were just me I'd already have been in Europe for close to a decade, but I'm taking care of my mother. I had finally convinced her to leave but then Covid came along and shut everything down. We could relocate now but she is in no condition health wise. So here we sit. On the bright side, the actuarial table said I was supposed to be dead several years ago from this brain tumor so I've already surpassed my expiration date.
 
I am sick of getting emails and texts from politicians and Democratic groups begging for money so they can retake Congress and fight back against Trump. I need my money. What I have an abundance of is time. So I respond that for just a monthly donation of $10 I will think really hard about their campaign. For $25 I'll write some letters to the editor for them. My involvement increases as the $ amount increases, up to $2000/month, at which point I'm basically working for them - at a fraction of what they would have to pay a field organizer. Oddly enough, no one has taken me up on my generous offer.

I hate Republicans and I hate rich people. Period.
US reportedly plans to slash bank rules imposed to prevent 2008-style crash. US watchdogs are reportedly planning to slash capital rules for banks designed to prevent another 2008-style crash, as Donald Trump's deregulation drive opens the door to the biggest rollback of post-crisis protections in more than a decade.
 
MAGA clowns are angrier about the Qatari plane than Democrats. Of course, that's because they're more pissed that brown people are involved
 
I hate Republicans and I hate rich people. Period.

During the lead-up to the 2008 crash, in 2007, we saw a huge spike in defaulted car loans and subsequent repossessions. This later tied into the mortgage default crisis because people who overextend on one often overextend on the other. (In for the penny, in for the pound.) During the past 6-9 months, we have seen a large uptick of that same trend.

All of that is to say, this rollback couldn’t happen at a more fitting time to make our (recent) history rhyme with the near future.
 
People not being able to pay a car loan is just in time for the 20% price increases we are staring down...
