It's very simple. Just raise taxes. Make the middle class pay more and the rich pay MUCH MORE (their fair share). Deficit spending is a huge source of inflation and how this mess started in the first place under Fat Donny. Writing checks to almost everybody. We didn't see the results until the very end of his term but it was inevitable. Biden just continued it and a huge part of this has always been our legislature. None of the Democrats want to talk about cutting spending and none of the Republicans want to talk about raising taxes. So, they compromise by increasing spending AND cutting taxes at the same time. Biden's plan to provide a tax break for mortgage interest will only INCREASE home prices AND INFLATION. If we significantly decreased the deficit through more taxes and/or less spending, we wouldn't have to increase interest rates at all. Nobody seems to be talking about this. It's amazing how dumb the average person is.

Israel will undoubtedly win the short-term war with Hamas. Nobody ever doubted that. However, their inhumane butchery is breeding far more hatred worldwide and will be their long-term demise.

Not really. All you have to do is listen to what the vast majority of climatologists tell you. It's very simple. Instead of what the fossil fuel companies, Fox News, or other non-climatologists (that have an obvious agenda) say.

"....Finally, no other known climate influences have changed enough to account for the observed warming trend. Taken together, these and other lines of evidence point squarely to human activities as the cause of recent global warming." That's per NOAA. But go ahead and disregard that and listen to whatever cherry-picked whackjob you can find that will tell you what you want to hear.

There are literally thousands of places you can go. I think NOAA is the most reputable source. https://oceanservice.noaa.gov/education/planet-stewards/webinar-three-crucial-facts-regarding-man-made-climate-change.html

All indications are that we are 100% responsible, or very close. the best source of info is the climatologists at NOAA or others that are reputable/published at universities. Yes, there are other non-anthropogenic factors that influence temps, but those are taken into account in climate models and we have a very solid understanding of what those are and where we are in the respective cycles. The right-wing whack jobs conveniently ignore them because their analyses don't fit with their agenda.

Whether man is causing global warming is irrefutable. We are 100% responsible for what is happening. Now, what we do about it is a different story, and particularly complicated when you get varying amounts of cooperation from other countries. Two completely different subjects.

I was conservative in H.S. through graduate school. Then I realized that a lot of what I believed was just propaganda B.S. from hacks like Rush Limbaugh. The right is filled w/ moral cowards.

I'd rather have an idiot than an evil psychopath. It isn't even close.

The hatred from the right is out of control. We're clearly regressing as a society.

I have no experience with that whatsoever, but I can tell you that here's NO age when it's appropriate talk about how "hot" your daughter is.

Some of the idiots here will donate to him.

Pro: He's not a psychopath like Fat Donny

You need to brush up on your history. The Israeli brutality and unfair treatment toward Palestinians has been ongoing since 1948. What happened in October was in reaction to much worse things that have been ongoing for decades. Also, as usual, Israel's reaction was over the top and disproportionately brutal.

Onus is on you. The wingers constantly say that climate change is a hoax, all to profit green energy companies. The stupidity makes mw want to puke.

Trying to help you Jimmy. To understand why so many ( and growing) people in that part of the world hate Israel so much. It generally isn't because of anti semitism or because their religion tells them to.

Same thing, but Israel has killed an order of magnitude more and the mass butchery/genocide continues.

They also didn't butcher nearly as many as Israel. Not remotely close.

To be honest, I'm not in favor of ANY student debt cancellation. However, if they are going to help anybody out, it should be those that are in public SERVICE!

They "make" zero. The money gets distributed. Mostly to services with smaller amounts to the workers (at relatively low wages). .

I don't care what their % profit is. Their total profit is fat & bloated and the renewable energy sector can't come close.

They deserve it. Public sector is underpaid, in general

No way. They are mass murderers committing genocide. So is Hamas but Israel butchered many, many more.
