  1. What are you getting at? Inflation is already back to "normal" and the fed is getting ready to cut interest rates. Prices are not ever going back to what they were several years ago. That just can't happen. The problem has been solved What will Trump's killing of Obamacare to for the average Americans health care costs? He has no solution to fix that, he has said he will kill Obamacare and he has no plan whatsoever to replace it.
  2. https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2024/09/14/nfl-sports-gambling-addiction-sportsbooks-credit-scores/ Now comes more systematic research to quantify these troubling impacts. Researchers from UCLA and the University of Southern California published a paper this summer in which they examined credit scores, credit card balances, loan delinquency rates and other detailed financial data for roughly 7 million Americans. Using this information, they were able to contrast the experience of individuals in various states before and after they adopted legal sports gambling. The findings provide cause for concern: The average credit score in states that legalized sports betting decreased by 0.3 percent — and by one percent, three times the average, in states that allow online sports betting. These might seem like small shifts, but they represent averages for entire state populations. This implies that a relatively small group of intensive users — “problem gamblers” — are suffering major damage to their credit scores, dragging down the overall average. Financial institutions in those states responded to the reduced creditworthiness of their consumers by lowering available credit limits, they found. The results were larger for young men from lower-income counties in those states. Meanwhile, states that legalized sports betting saw significant increases in bankruptcy filing rates and debt collections. Debt consolidation loans went up 8 percent by dollar value, and auto loan delinquencies increased 9 percent. “Together, these results indicate that the ease of access to sports gambling is harming consumer financial health by increasing their level of debt,” the study’s authors wrote. “While many states may have opted for legalization with the hope of increasing tax revenue, the negative effect we document can partially offset tax revenue benefits as more consumers’ financial health deteriorates.” In short, legal sports gambling is creating a pathway to financial distress for vulnerable individuals. States that legalized sports betting were often instructed by their legislatures to set aside some funding from the tax receipts to deal with problem gambling and addiction. But reporting and research show a huge disparity between how much states tax the betting industry.
  3. I can sense that you use that method yourself, that's why you brought it up. Do you like sticking your tongue out to turn on potential targets?
  4. MAGA is just semi-organized insanity. This is just so stupid and MAGA is like crazy mad, stopping on the ground over it. When Trump loses, and he will, these same idiots will be moaning and crying for years about how it was stolen from them. Idiots Is that your method?
  5. Has he found a soul mate? Has this Christian gentleman cast aside another wife for an affair with this racist POS?
  6. Ok, you think our government is evil. I get it. That’s why electing a pos like Trump is a good thing in your eyes
  7. Trump just isn't very smart, that's why he lost the debate so badly. It's funny seeing MAGA crying how unfair literally everything under the sun is. That everything is biased against their dim witted hero. Like parents of a kid who isn't athletic screaming that their little Donnie should be a starter on the baseball team Pathetic
  8. That's what happens when you are charged with defending world order. Putin was simply trying to crush a free, independent republic. I guess you can't see the difference. You are MAGA
