Poor super rich. Why should they pay taxes anyway? Let's give a tax cut where it will matter - no taxes over $10,000,000.

Or better yet, treat them like this bear is treating the salmon

Wait....in April Congress passed a 484 billion dollar economic relief bill and now the House wants a 3 trillion dollars coronavirus relief bill......when we are ALL (Dem, Rep any other political party you can think of in the good ole USA) to the tune of 23.3 trillion at the moment...alright then

I am confused. In this photo who is it that you are associating with the superrich? It seems like it should be the bear.

OK....I'm confused....admittedly I should not have been reading about such things and trying to figure it out but.....how are any of us in the US of A winning when in last April the politicians got a 484 billion dollar relief plan through due to the coronavirus....which left us with a piddly little national debt of 23.3 trillion dollars....and now they want to put through a 3 Trillion dollar relief bill...how is that winning?????

OK, I guess I'll just have to take this post as a win and be done with it

These are new bills? Because they have already spent about 4 trillion on bills since the coronavirus started.

Simple. We let foreign nations buy up our debt and then stiff them.

ahhh so THAT is why our military i so big and strong....

I had an idea a while back as to how to make money and get rid of the debt. Agree with Russia to play good guy, bad guy around the world and get the rest of the countries to pay protection money...but then RUSSIA went and messed the WHOLE thing up by breaking up the Soviet Union

The world seems ok with two 800 pound gorillas, but not one 1600 pound gorilla.

Just like in the Ozarks, it is all relative.
I remember one Lyft ride I gave, I explained I'm normally from Missouri, and some lady called me out for not saying "mi-zor-ugh." I did some poking around, and found its apparently a thing of state pride mostly done by politicians. My mom couldn't remember hearing it.
If I dont get moved onto other things and drive Lyft again, I'm gonna see what people's reaction is when I tell them I'm originally from here.

My grandmother was from Missouri, and that's how she pronounced it.
