Yeah real strange when a bunch of other billionaires start coming around your neck of the woods and messing with the people you have been exploiting. I guess I don't know enough about Pritz, but his response seems as simple as the old poker saying you can shear a sheep multiple times but only skin them once. Which is my way of saying he might just take exception to the skinning of his constituents, and is not about fixing shit beyond pragmatic constituent shearing.

Something like over half the price increases are because the businesses are able to raise prices and consumers still buy. So high prices are in large part due to greed. The rest I assume are increased input costs and costs of doing business.

Are those the Texas guard that are coming from the perfect land of Texas where no one is swept away in floods or goes without electricity?

I knew he wasn't when he had his goons clear the protesters from the park so he could have a photo shoot in front of that church during his first term. You could see the bible was burning his hand from the way he was holding it.

We go four years of lessons about how the rich and connected live by a totally different set of rules and laws from those of us that are not rich or connected.

This seems a few levels beyond the drone strikes. These boats from my understanding could've been stopped and were no match for the US Navy. Some of those drone targets were in the middle of no where. Here we have the current administration choosing to just murder a bunch of people on a boat while being able to use any number of non lethal solutions.

You should reconnect with them to see if they are now blamimg immigrants for their situation.

They're still big about not being able to say the n-word in public. I don't spend much time with the racist in-laws, but when I do I am always impressed with the new ways they've picked up to be racist without being openly racist.

In their defense lots of those teachers grew up in a society where graduating high school could get you a middle class family and factory job.

I'm mildly impressed they are managing to do all this without having an outside catalyst like covid-19.

What is crazy to me are the lengths that Trump is willing to go to distract from his Epstein debacle. Also, maybe before agreeing to go on South Park Trump should've familiarized himself with their type of show.

I think the Trump regime is getting push back on Epstein because they made a big deal of it during the campaign. And a bunch of their talking heads piled on the Epstein will out a bunch of Dems fantasy.

We have state constitutions!

Some of those people didn't have a choice though so that seems excessive.

Old reddit was so so useful this transition to everybody being loud with little depth of knowledge has been sad to watch.

Lying and being wildly incompetent are like hallmarks of the Trump regime.

Sounds like some of them haven't gotten their full updates yet. Trying to run a republican on old software can cause odd responses or straight up glitches.

Like being a buncha hypocrites ever stopped them from worshiping Trump.

Well we currently share this country with people that voted three times for the Trump regime. I'm just saying we don't currently have a dearth of incredibly stupid people.

We gotta fix education on these simple topics. It is across the board with conservative anti intellectualism. Conservatives are anti vax after having the benefit of vaccinated societies. Conservatives are anti union after taking all the sweet union benefits. On and on it goes.
