They will do it on the shoulders of abortion rights. They are hoping to ride that wave.

Yes, but with abortion on the ballot there - I'm sure that's why they are targeting it.

Like in Kansas 2022 - keeping abortion legal won by 19%. In Kansas!

Abortion being a ballot issue will certainly bring out the blue vote.

It would be much longer, based on 2020. There's always idiots breaking quarantine.

COVID could have been eliminated if people stayed home for a couple of weeks in March/April 2020. Now COVID is permanent.

You could put your 401k money in a money-market fund or something like that. It doesn't have to be invested in the stock market.

Also, if you're young, and you've got extra dough, do yourself a favor and start a Roth IRA. They are amazing.

Simple solution for saving Social Security - raise or remove the cap on earnings.

Right now, we tax poor people higher than people making over $170k.
The more money you make, the less you pay. It's a reverse-progressive tax. Let's tax rich people the same as poor people.

Someone, please protest outside that guy's restaurant, disrupting his steak dinner and Crème Brûlée.

He'll need to flee out the back door and then complain about it.
