That ice cream shop was established decades ago… many people in the area enjoyed going there. It had nothing to do with poor business management. Stop making excuses for taxing business owners exponentially.

lol poor business management. good grief.

Agreed. I don’t know if Trump is status quo. He appears to be against the status quo. His actions would prove what side he’s on.

I think the way Biden went about it was wrong. We left military hardware that is now in the hands of the so-called enemy - the taliban. Which apparently they’re now utilizing and repairing vehicles and other military assets for use.

I don’t believe Thomas Massie, for example, is status quo since he goes against the grain 9 times out of 10.

We just witnessed businesses killed in California from the minimum wage increase. And if not killed, job losses:

Last September, Gov. Gavin Newsom signed California Assembly Bill 1287 into law, which includes a $20 per hour minimum wage for fast-food workers and a fast-food regulatory council which has the authority to raise the industry’s minimum wage annually. But between last fall and January, California fast-food restaurants cut about 9,500 jobs, representing a 1.3 percent change from September 2023.

On April 1, a Fosters Freeze location in Lemoore, California — about three hours north of Los Angeles — shut down. That happened to be the same day the new minimum wage, which is now $20 an hour rather than $4, kicked in for fast food workers. Some employees thought that the closure was an April Fool’s joke.Apr 13, 2024

They would move to another country to find cheaper labor…

Any company can leave the country… wat.

Regulations and money are big factors as to why a U.S. company would move its operations to another nation.

I mean I’d hope so… but not government jobs right? We don’t need more government agencies and more government employees. We need more private sector jobs.

I’m pretty centered, leaning right. I can actually agree with the left with some things and not others.

If you like war, then I guess continue voting for the status quo, whether left or right.

One thing I disagree with Trump is his alignment with Israel.

No… that wasn’t my point.

Bro… AOC??? And I’m not stating this as a fact, but if Bernie became president and hiked up taxes for the wealthy, the wealthy will more than likely move their business to other nations. We need more jobs here and Bernie would cause job losses.

On anything at all? So… you like war? I assume you invest into the military industrial complex?

I’m not an audiophile (I listen to different genres of music), but two years ago I wanted new speakers. Genelec was the brand that was recommended to me. Never heard of the brand, never heard them in action before buying. After a few days of test driving a pair, which by the way, this was the most expensive pair of speakers (monitors as they called) I’ve ever bought, I realized these were by far the best sounding speakers I have ever heard. I don’t know if there are far superior brands out there but I don’t think I’ll ever buy another brand of speakers. Next year, assuming chit stain is kicked out of the WH, and the economy bounces back, I plan to buy another pair for my pole barn which I’m planning to convert into my home gym.

Absolutely not… groceries and restaurant (including fast food) has been crazy expensive. Everything, everything we buy on a monthly basis @ Costco and Sam’s Club has gone up in price. And now property tax has gone up because of inflation (that’s how they justified the property tax increase in the letter we’ve received a few months back)… so our local government gets a bump by stealing our money due to inflation.

Haha… that’s pretty slick.

However, there’s industry players who have provided video and audio evidence of what they’ve experienced within the realm of pop culture. But hey, maybe it’s all a coincidence /shrug

Well apparently I beat my children, I starve my children, we provide food that makes them ill, and my children are afraid of their parents. This is coming from people who have the smallest of details about my parenting style and conjured up some extremes that are not even closely aligned to reality.

Regarding my racist shot (which hilariously… Racism is allowed against cis-gendered-whites who align themselves with the political opposition), just about every ethnic group on earth knows modern day Western civilization has a specific group who would shove candy, ice cream, and fast food down their kid’s throats to shut them up, and these very same people allow their children to have authority over them. I didn’t make this chit up, literally… go onto Youtube and search, “White parents vs [insert race / ethnicity] parents.”

Our (wife and I) favorites are always the comparison with Arabs and Latinos because it’s accurate af.

Someone should have called you out for claiming, I used, “beating” or that my children are afraid in general of me and or their mother… Instead you got upvotes… dafuq is wrong with your reading comprehension? You high? Too much my little pony?

If the food is literally giving them sickness, that’s one thing. Tell me, are parents in African tribes abusing their children when they give their children only two options, eat or don’t? How about parents in war torn nations? I’m not giving my kids the luxury, that’s not how many of us around the world, outside of the Western world roll.

It’s kind of cray… you’re so offended by my statement about the pop culture, it’s like garlic to a vampire. Why so salty? Trying so hard to offend me when you don’t even know chit about me.

What are you 13 years old? That’s rhetorical, I actually dgaf about your literal existence.

Intentionally? No… they have two options. Eat was has been made or don’t. It is THEIR decision. lmao “child abuse”. Goodness that’s weak af.

I’m Latino, wife is Arab… we are not the same as you gringos. Your child has authority over you, we have authority over our children. This is the way.

Stay salty.
