Do you think the difference has anything at all to do with the fact that Florida's elderly population is disproportionately white? Combined with the distrust of the black community towards vaccines?

Was he at all accurate? You didn't believe any predictions that proved inaccurate? I don't know where you started, but i hope this isnt you showing growth. Thanks, I don't know anything about this guy. There are a lot of lying a$$#oles on social media, and an exponential number of idiots that believe them.

What is the point of the thread? Aren't you the one who quoted him? He seems like some dip$#it conspiracy theorist, right? There are lots of these guys out there, why trash one in particular? What value do you personally get out of this account beyond degrading conversation? If you want to be a di@k, why not just own it with your own username? This is cowardly, in my opinion.

I agree. Both sides are manipulative to voters. Trump is a perfect example, so was LBJ.

Is cronyism worse than buying off Manchin? Come on man, they are BOTH scumbag moves bro. It's ok to admit it.

A lot of what Trump did was gross, he is a shady person who has done some shady $#it. This ALSO sucks because of what it represents. Do you agree?

Whoever they want? He's taking advantage of your here, @BillStime https://www.onlineathens.com/story/news/state/2021/03/28/new-georgia-voting-law-what-does-sb-202-change-elections/7038406002/ The secretary of state will no longer chair the State Election Board, becoming instead a non-voting ex-officio member. The new chair would be nonpartisan but appointed by a majority of the state House and Senate. The chair would not be allowed to have been a candidate, participate in a political party organization or campaign or made campaign contributions for two years prior to being appointed. Do you want to argue that they'll bribe some independent to do their bidding? Perhaps, but read up on it so you're not tricked by partisan BS.

I tend to agree, with the exception that maybe trading for 2022 upgraded picks. If we can trade our 2nd rd pick for another team's 2022 1st? I'd definitely consider it.

No thank you, sir. I still haven't figured out Mullholland Drive.

It lowered the US corporate tax rate to dis-incent tax inversion, which is when you move your headquarters or ops offshore to effectively arbitrage the tax rates. If it costs $100 to be domiciled in the US, and $50 to be domiciled in Ireland, business will move to Ireland.

I suppose it is. I'll try to be better about calling out both sides.

It's all a giant race to the bottom, in PPP. Everyone here, including me and you, are guilty of it. If more of us had the balls to admit it, we'd have an actual discussion.

That's what you think you're doing here? Because that's not even remotely what it seems like to me. You post BS partisan tweets all the time, just like BMan and many others. Sometimes it's like a race to the $)$^ing bottom rung of humanity around this place. We should act like we would treat each other in public, because it certainly isn't like this. Why not try to engage folks and find out why they feel differently than you do instead of insulting them and chasing them away?

Yes, it does. You seem to be only interested in being a #$%* on this part of the board, and I don't get it. What part of you makes you act this way towards others? Why do you hope to accomplish?

You realize the irony and hypocrisy of following him around posting "Lather, Rinse, Repeat" right?

Jesus man, be better than this.

Did you take the time to read the article I linked above?

Then why not just say that in the first place? Personally, I think solving the education gap will fix most of the employment gap. It's huge and no one wants to talk about it, and it starts at very early ages and gets wider. From the article: For instance, black students at the end of their high school career are almost four years behind white students in reading; the gap is comparable in other subjects. A study of 26- to 33-year-old men who held full-time jobs in 1991 thus found that when education was measured by years of school completed, blacks earned 19 percent less than comparably educated whites. But when word knowledge, paragraph comprehension, arithmetical reasoning, and mathematical knowledge became the yardstick, the results were reversed. Black men earned 9 percent more than white men with the same education—that is, the same performance on basic tests. How would you feel if you were passed over for a job based on your skin color?

In some cases, yes. Here is a good read on the progress and remaining gap if you want to discuss the topic like an adult. It's left of my stance but it is a fair place to start an intelligent discussion. But if you are interested in disparaging others that disagree with you then we have nothing to say to each other. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.brookings.edu/articles/black-progress-how-far-weve-come-and-how-far-we-have-to-go/amp/

I think you shouldn't talk in hyperbole, that would make everyone feel better, with the exception of maybe you.

As a whole?

Maybe he meant that he wouldn't use his position as PRESIDENT for nepotism, but as VP it didn't count?

The child tax credit is the one that really concerns me, as it's basically reverting to the pre-Clinton welfare policy. We need to find a better way than incenting people not to work.

Why do you act like this?

Enough of the internet tough guy stuff already.
