Let's Talk About- Political Edition

(This post was last modified: 03-05-2022, 12:07 AM by americus 2.0.)

I told my husband I no longer look forward to the new year. 2020 brought all manner of crazy, 2021 brought us the Bidet administration and 2022 has brought war in Ukraine, 7.5% inflation, a 61% rise in gas prices from a year ago, and all the crap that will trickle down from all of this.

No more. Carpe diem has never sounded better because we just don't know what's coming tomorrow.

It all makes sense when you see that it's 2020 won and 2020 too.

It's hard to believe that just two years ago gas was $1.50/gallon on average in my county.

Makes it all worthwhile, doesn't it? I know I sleep so much better at night knowing that Twitter is safe from mean tweets.

But the moderates and liberals on this board will bury their heads in the sand and pretend the nation is better now. Or worse, they'll blame Trump.

There's more to life than money.  And you know there was more wrong with Trump than just some mean tweets.

This country as a whole is in deep [BLEEP] compared to anytime while Trump was in office to include his last year. There is no comparison. 

You're right about there being more to life than money but none of it pays the bills or puts food on the table.

...says a person from the most entitled citizenry ever to walk the planet. Comfort has not been the norm for mankind. You people take our freedom and wealth for granted. 

Forget Trump for a second. The question is really whether or not our lives are made better by democrats. The answer is no. Not in any way. They, along with many Republicans, are the establishment class. They don't care about the people. We have to start voting against the establishment and get back to people run government.

Depends whose life we're talking about.  I didn't qualify for that child tax credit, but my neighbors did.  Statistics say that it dramatically decreased child poverty.

Even so, that's not the question I ask.  That question's too selfish for me, and sometimes circumstances are such that people's lives will get worse regardless of how wise the government is.

Trump was trying to become a dictator.  He was trying to persecute and prosecute his opponents and when that didn't work he called for violence to get his way.  All of these things would make the government more accountable to him and his personality and less accountable to the voters.  So the question I asked in 2020 was, regardless of which tax and spending policy I prefer, regardless of which immigration policy I prefer, regardless of any of my preferences, which candidate is more likely to preserve my ability to vote and influence government in 2021, 2022, and beyond?

Clearly Trump, but you voted against your interests. Because you're a naïve UI.

How is Biden threatening anyone's ability to vote or influence government in the future?
And what does UI mean?
