My dad grew up with 48 stars on the flag and survived the addition of two new stars. I think our generation can handle the stress.

That's cooler than the uphill both ways in the snow stories. Back in my day there were only 48 states...

Re: To 2021 and Beyond .... current politics
Politics are made for complaining and arguing. Politics are the bread and those 2 things are the peanut butter and jelly.

chico , you're the hypocrite . Where was you "outrage" when this shit was going on??? https://markets.businessinsider.com/...0-1-1028791979 President Trump's tariffs are harming the sector he pledged in 2016 to protect, according to a recent Federal Reserve study. The president's 2018 tariffs fueled job loss throughout the ailing manufacturing industry and increased input costs, the December 23 study said. The duties did provide some import protection to US-based firms, but any benefits were outweighed by boosted production expenses and retaliatory tariffs, the Fed added. The findings come as the US manufacturing sector remains mired in recession and a separate report says 2019 brought the most job cuts in four years. The Fed study, published December 23, explains how tariffs implemented in 2018 fueled job loss and increased input costs across US manufacturers. While the duties did provide some benefits to domestic firms, the negative effects outweighed the positive ones and harmed an already-ailing sector, the Fed wrote. "For manufacturing employment, a small boost from the import protection effect of tariffs is more than offset by larger drags from the effects of rising input costs and retaliatory tariffs," authors Aaron Flaaen and Justin Pierce wrote. "For producer prices, the effect of tariffs is mediated solely through rising input costs." The central bank noted that global supply chains also complicate the traditional utility of tariffs and other trade policy tools. The typical benefit of import protection fades away in today's global economy, according to the Fed, since reduced competition and higher production costs present greater harm in the short term.

Second Kerry addressed it................... https://www.nationalreview.com/news/...ebody-like-me/ "During the trip, Kerry was confronted by Icelandic reporter Jóhann Bjarni Kolbeinsson on whether his use of a private jet was an “environmental way to travel.” “If you offset your carbon, it’s the only choice for somebody like me, who is traveling the world to win this battle,” Kerry responded. The former secretary of state went on to emphasize his climate accomplishments, including negotiating the Paris accord for the U.S. and bringing Chinese President Xi to the table." “I’ve been involved in this fight for years,” Kerry said. “I believe the time it takes me to get somewhere, I can’t sail across the ocean, I have to fly to meet with people and get things done,” he continued. “But what I’m doing almost full-time is working to win the battle of climate change. And in the end, if I offset and contribute my life to do this, I’m not going to be put on the defensive.” Last week, Kerry recommended that oil and gas workers should pivot to manufacturing solar panels if their jobs are eliminated as a consequence of the Biden administration’s environmental policies. Biden signed several executive orders on climate change last week aimed at achieving the goal of reaching net-zero emissions by 2050. During his first week in office, the president reentered the Paris climate accord, from which the Trump administration withdrew the U.S. in 2017.

That argument is the whole - we are all equal but some are more equal than others - argument

Re: To 2021 and Beyond .... current politics
So AOC officially lied about her “near death traumatic experience” and how Ted Cruz almost got her killed
AOC was not in the Capital at the time of the riot. She was in an adjacent building where no one threatened her or knocked on her door...no rioters were in the building Simply amazing, yet CNN and NBC nightly news ran the story, not fact checking

She lied though and publications have issue retractions on aspects of the story. But yes, rioters were never in the cannon building and she was not in the capital at the time of the riot. She lied and it’s clear. Cannon building isn’t the capital....look it up on maps. It’s NOT where the riot occurred. She is once again pushing lie and inflammatory rhetoric that serves no purpose. It’s all about her, pathetic
