The Biden Presidency: Repairing America.....again

@Snorkel

 My comment was regarding covid.

I see planes coming down the coast every day filled with people coming to Florida. They are coming for the nightlife before they head up to Orlando with the kids. We have missed this for over a year but it tells me people are more secure travelling, spending their money & more comfortable in our economy. Baseball stadiums and basketball arenas are packed. Concerts are now being held all across the country. The country is getting on back on her feet.

Regarding the crime in the country, no one is safe anywhere. Life is meaningless to so many. Road rage is out of control. Gun control is all talk no action in our government. The AP reported that 300k in gun sales were prevented last year & 42% of those denials were because of felony convictions. This proved background checks work but too many states have loopholes allowing scumbags access to guns.

Be safe this weekend brother!

But, but, but,    trump ordered his loyal minions to [quote]   "BOYCOTT MLB!"

Investors have been encouraged by data that show the economy continues its recovery from the pandemic. The latest weekly unemployment report showed the lowest number of claims for jobless aid since the pandemic walloped the economy. The highly anticipated jobs report for June comes out Friday.

Excellent points, as usual Midnight!

Over 72 million Americans are currently living paycheck to paycheck.... 

@kcblitzkrieg

 Don't act like living paycheck to paycheck is anything new.

I would venture a guess that many that frequent this forum were in this predicament or at least knew others in this situation growing up.

We didn't know we were poor because my parents gave us everything that we needed & growing up my siblings & I worked for everything we have today.

Having said that, we can debate why people are poor but that's an whole other thread you may want to start.

@Midnight1

Agree 100%

My comment was in response to post #695 in regards to Americans' "elevated savings".  The top 1% yes, the rest of us?  Nope....   

this makes sense 

President Biden wins global support
for massive international tax overhaul

In a statement, US Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen called the agreement
a "historic day for economic diplomacy."
Yellen secured the support of the Group of Seven nations, including Canada,
France, Japan, Germany, Italy and the United Kingdom, last month.

"For decades, the United States has participated in
a self-defeating international tax competition,
lowering our corporate tax rates only to watch
other nations lower theirs in response," Yellen said.

That "race to the bottom" is now "one step closer to coming to an end,"

its about time ssomebody did something .

we been losing at this internationally for decades

stay safe , fubah2

Thank you, Kelly.

And you stay safe too! 

That goes doubly for all our fellow Americans who also wore the uniform to serve our country.

thank u 

and i concur with your statement about our fellow vets 

Dis he plot to hang his vice President?

Head and shoulders above the last loser and his administration... wanna make put in chuckle tell em that Trump is gonna get permits to build Trump towers in moscow...

 Almost anything is possible

This latest Russian based cyber attack needs to be addressed ASAP. 

Sanctions take too long to make an impact & what we have already in place certainly are not stopping these assaults.

Choosing an appropriate response is difficult & I don't know the answer but Joe has to show the country & the world we will use all of our resources to respond. 

i agree with u , ny fellow vet

i say joe should publicly announce more and deeper sanctions     ones that really grab their attention now even if the actual effect is delayed over time

and at the same time publicly announce he is pressing nato to admit ukraine   and then use whatever influence he has to get that done asap

and third secretly use our cyber intrusive abilities to strike back hard
