Wrong Declare COVID over. We can debate about what it ever was (it was a global Psy Op that we fell for) but no matter, it's gone and is dramatically affecting our economy. People need to go to work. The Biden Admin needs to have the courage to declare this "Pandemic" is no longer a National Emergency and people need to get back to work to earn a living. Remove the punitive language and disincentives toward Energy production...ESG-related innovations are happening regardless, no need to punish the lower-40% of Americans to make John Kerry happy. Yes, maintain low overall Tax rates. It's an important incentive to invest here. Essentially, just do every thing that Trump was doing without the bombast that weak-minded Leftists can't take (nevermind that the Racist and Hate nonsense was creationism by radical Leftist media)

It's just that Tibs is a Leftist and has no idea how incentives work in an Economy. He can't track or understand rates of return, capital flows, etc etc For instance, Leftists are crowing about "Biden Deficit Reduction", but that's because they're too stupid to realize that's resultant from the Federal Reserve and Federal Gov't just PUMPING money into the Markets and Economy, leading to Trillions in short-term paper wealth profits, leading to lesser-Trillions in short-term cap-gains tax receipts, but ultimately not fundamentally changing anything, and in fact leading to this hyper-inflationary situation that's going to destroy livelihoods faster than they can say "Fossil Fuels Are Bad"

Means to An End Party They are terrible people. Dumb, but also terrible

I know you're not serious, but by your definition then Millions of Americans have "Stormed" the Capitol over the last 200 years. The Global Psy Op is nearing completion, thanks to Western Leftists

We're going on a 2-3 year Global Psy-Op/Kinetic War that we completely fell for....

Huh, what? Nat Gas operates in a regional/global market and producers are free & right to find the best price for their product. It's not their fault that Europe listened to much to their Green Left and demolished their Energy infrastructure and became entirely reliant on Russian Gas + US LNG...so now that they are dropping Russian Gas, European Nat Gas prices have sky-rocketed 156% this year to $189/mmbtu vs. US prices around $8.50. Yes, those prices are up 127% YTD here in the US, but that's our fault. NY State has enough Nat Gas to power half the US, but we won't allow it. So there you have it, the companies are responding appropriately to market forces.

There is no question that the cadre of Leftists sitting in some room in the White House directing US policy and writing pithy teleprompter speeches for the President to read really don't care at all about this country or its citizens.

Just remember, as bad as things are right now, our idiot Democrat leaders actually wanted to print and spend $6.5 TRILLION MORE dollars on their pet projects to buy votes...and when that didn't work they wanted $3.2 TRILLION...and when that didn't work they wanted $2.0 TRILLION...all on top of the unnecessary $1.9 TRILLION they printed when they came into office dubbed their "historic AMERICAN RESCUE PLAN". These people are so effing stupid they should be forced out of government NOW. The reality is they don't want you, the individual, to succeed...that does NOTHING for them. They want you to fail, so you NEED them, and they can come and rescue you with some tritely-named "rescue plan". Eff these people, they need to go.

Again, why on earth are we taking credit for any of this? What's the purpose, what's the point?

"Means to An End" Party at work.

Wrong, he's great It's just the Left is utter bananas right now (and will be probably forever until some foreign power eliminates them)

The problem is you don't understand that The Green New Deal in Western Europe and then the United States is getting people killed right now in Ukraine. In the real world, due to Leftist policy initiatives, because they have no clue how to grasp externalities of their decisions.

I don't know where you're getting that math, but it's way more than $16k a year. I'll just leave it at that, we're all friends here

Yeah, but I was using $500,000 income to be diplomatic...that's barely middle class in many areas of Northeast Blue States. It's a much bigger impact than that, ESPECIALLY in a virtual work-from-anywhere world The Northeast is doomed long-term I think

Um, really? It costs a LOT of money that one could keep just by shifting from place to place 7% State Income Tax, obviously that's $7,000 per $100,000, and really kicks in for those over $500,000, so that's $35,000 minimum that you have to pay AND don't get back in Federal. Then absurd property taxes, say $25,000 per year...so that's $60,000 per year which would probably cost you ~$10,000 in Florida or Texas, and before you were able to offset Federal Income but no more. Yes, Trump really screwed the Blue States, but they're in a bind because to unwind it they'd be "lowering taxes on the Wealthy and raising them on the unwealthy" Of course, all this does is highlight that many, many of Trump's programs were actually some of the better Democrat ideas just actually executed. But he sent mean Tweets so Dems are upside-down on themselves

One major problem in the world is the lack of understanding about Hydrogen. Hydrogen is not an Energy or Electricity production mechanism. It is a store of power, a delivery mechanism so to speak. In fact it takes a great deal of energy to create Hydrogen power (Grey & Blue) vs. the Green Hydrogen that is really pie in the sky until we have more Nuclear (Fission now, Fusion eventually).

Relax, he's an idiot. No he didn't notice

Well of course, in that case it was the Democrats challenging...they are allowed to do that. Because, um, they are on the right side of History, that's why

It's a good question you ask...my personal view (long gone from possibility) would be that low-income pay not much, middle-class pays more (as a %-age of their income) and the wealthy pay a much higher %-age AND we have a much smaller Federal Gov't that focuses on the things that a Federal Gov't in a Republic should focus on...

that is 100% the plan. Headlines last week that the FEDERAL GOV'T was going to write checks to "people who drive cars and have suffered from higher prices..." This is EXACTLY what the the Leftist/Socialist agenda-ites actually puppeteering behind Biden are up to. It's Socialist whack-a-mole. Toss out idiotic ideas ($1.9T "Historic", unnecessary stimulus) without consideration for the externalities & consequences (runaway inflation) then toss out even further idiotic ideas (print more money) because they're just plain stupid instead of doing what would make more sense (convince companies to pump more Oil because you're "not going to put them out of business" as said prior on television hundreds of times). We are in deep trouble with these people in charge, I hope we make it to November.

Need an answer here generally, how do you ignore a poster? Having tried and getting frustrated. Looking for honest dialogue from real people with brains. Can't take this incessant stupid idiotic BS

You just don't understand economic incentives and decisions, like at all. It's OK Most Leftists don't

Geezus Christ. Our society is so doomed

No, it's Emperor Has No Clothes Covid Definitely, Global activities certainly. The boy who yelled "But he hasn't any clothes on" would be arrested by today's Leftist thugs.

I find this hilarious...I just got a NY Times "Breaking News" Alert that the "Former Proud Boys" Leader was indicted in the Jan 6th investigation I had no recollection of who "The Proud Boys" are or why that would be breaking news, so I searched my email for NYT Breaking news emails, and I have 6 such emails since Feb 27th: -- 3 Jan 6 "Breaking News Alerts" -- 2 Russia Invades Ukraine -- 1 Wuhan Market likely origin of the pandemic (yeah, OK) LOL, no wonder we're so effed up; apparently half the population either reads or thinks this way. Terrifying
