How patriotic of you.
26-years of service proves it...and Thanks.

Was your 26 years of service for Florida only?

so as long as you’re taken care of, the rest of the country can go pound sand? That’s some Olympic‑level patriotism right there. ‘America First’… as long as it’s literally just you. Tell me I'm wrong...

Well Israel started this through us. So it is only right that they receive the consequences.

And I thought their iron dome was supposed to be some state of the art defense system. Does it not work anymore?

Trump threatened to pull America's support from Bibi today..

That is what you are saying. You are fine with only your state not suffering, but the rest of the country go to hell as far as you are concerned. That was essentially what you said.

Maybe, but I know you have....let's recap...

I simply stated Florida State Average (Regular): $3.781/gal   These are Happy Days compared to BidenFlation. Those were some hard **** times there. So, I'm ok.  

You came in with this

Oh well I am glad that you are taken care of.

I replied
I am. I have a great gov...

To hell with the rest of the country.

I replied
I'm all for you get...what you elect

How patriotic of you.

I replied

Now, I will clarify my above replies

I am. I have a great gov...DeSantis, the best

I'm all for you get...what you elect...Who's your **** up gov

26-years of service proves it...and Thanks...I served, and you are welcome

 
 

I don't give a **** about your service and we do everything in our power to pay zero federal taxes (Just like Trump did).
**** that pension, suckers and losers paying for suckers and losers.

This is where you missed my point. When you served for 26 years, I can safely assume that was for the United States of America, not just for one state. All 50. Our governors and other elected leaders have nothing to do with the gas prices. They are not in control of that.  

Desantis has nothing to do with why Florida's gas is less expensive. Florida is cheaper for two reasons:

1. Florida is closer to Gulf Coast supply.  Gulf Coast prices are usually lowest because of refinery access. Your elected officials have nothing to do with that. 
2. Gas has to be moved by pipeline, ship, truck, or rail. Florida can receive fuel from Gulf Coast refineries and marine terminals.

Location...Location...Location is why your state has cheaper fuel. Not because you got what you voted for. 

Florida faces a severe affordability crisis driven by soaring housing and insurance costs, stagnant wages, and high levels of personal debt. The state consistently ranks among the most financially stressed in the nation, with a massive share of households struggling to cover basic expenses.

Since the thread is about me, I feel it only fitting that I answer the thread title......I can only "speak" for myself....... I am doing just fine. I remember $7.00 eggs. And $5.00 gas. I do not look a gift horse in the mouth.

Good point on the location stuff. So, BV claiming TRUMP is solely responsible gas is not true?

Correct. No president is solely responsible.  The only time it could ever be solely a president's fault is if we nationalized oil, like what Venezuela did.  In a capitalist economy, the market decides that along with many other factors.

It's actually not going bad at all...

The IRGC knows that if they can hold out long enough, Quasi Americans, for political reasons, will turn on Americans rather that keeping focused with the task at hand.

It's good to stay focused...if you're able

Try to focus on not being a sheep.

You’re yelling ‘ATTRITION!’ but then you admit the U.S. has always done whatever the hell it wants. Exactly. Which means Iran isn’t ‘outlasting’ anything...they’re just hiding behind a closed Strait, because they’ve got nothing left to fight with.

Save your breath and say your stupid **** when the strait opens, fruitcake.

They are outlasting us. A POS military like theirs against a formidable military like ours...and we are still fighting. How does that even happen? 

Yes. Attrition. Period.

Do you want Trump to destroy their entire country?

We have the ability to do it, but not the intestinal fortitude, which isn't Trump's fault....the girls are crying now over a small increase in the price of gas.

Florida isn't responsible for $7.00 gas in California or $20,000 a year property taxes in New Jersey.....it's the **** Democrats that you need to blame.

I don't want Trump there at all. This is all Israel's doing. Let them deal with it. Hell, it's not like we haven't given them enough support to build a badass military or anything.

How many Americans are you willing to sacrifice to Iran's nuclear bomb?

Don't think for a minute they aren't working on one now......what do you think these delaying tactics are for?

Israel defeated the entire Arab world in 7 days..... in 1967. Trump is actually restraining them from a repeat performance.
