Kevin Roberts remembers when he could get a bacon cheeseburger, fries and a drink from Five Guys for $10. But that was years ago. When the Virginia high school teacher recently visited the fast-food chain, the food alone without a beverage cost double that amount....
I know most people that were on reddit at the time are fully aware of this and won’t be surprised but don’t dismiss the findings out of hand. It’s important that studies are being conducted and the fact that the finding match our lived experience is still noteworthy.

If trump had been re-elected, maybe libs would’ve kept pretending to care instead of checking out entirely cause Da Blue Team won or whatever. maybe we could’ve gotten something done out of sheer spite for Le Cheeto Benito.

I would say that the country that has built 45,000km+ of high speed rail network, has a home ownership rate of 90%+, and has virtually eradicated extreme poverty within it’s borders is objectively better than the country with one of the highest per-capita prison populations in the world, and ~600k homeless people it can’t take care of.

If someone could answer, I would love to know what the plan is when Biden wins the election but Trump just decides to not accept the results and take power by force? What’s the plan when the cops, the courts, and the military don’t stop him? I truly, truly hope the answers are not “vote” or “just accept it”.
Yeah! Maybe if if they add the votes on this post to the election results, Biden won’t even NEED to win Pennsylvania, Wisconsin OR Michigan! Could you imagine??
If I posted a giant block of resources debunking the ridiculous “Uyghur genocide” claim, would you actually read them? I wanna know if I should go through the effort of grabbing and linking them, or if I should just shit post at you until you go away.
