Despite a sizeable number of Americans expressing financial concerns, Rep. Troy Nehls (R-Texas) boasted Tuesday of his plans to eat lobster tails and rib-eye steak this Fourth of July weekend. 

“Affordability — what are you talking about?” Nehls told reporter Pablo Manríquez on the Capitol steps, when the latter asked him how House Republicans can convince their constituents they are fighting to make life more affordable.



“Over the fourth, I’m going to get me a couple of big lobster tails, I’m going to get me some nice rib-eyes. I’m going to sit in my backyard with my family [and] my neighbors, and we’re going to be enjoying the fourth, celebrating 250 years, the birthday [of America],” the Texas Republican added

According to our calculations, the math has stopped adding up for this family over the past 18 months. They had a small cushion in 2024. Now they are in the red after covering just the basics, such as housing, an Affordable Care Act marketplace health care plan and day care. The family has over $1,000 less than it did a year and a half ago. Rising costs have more than wiped out any gains from higher wages and recent tax cuts. 

This family would have trouble paying for anything beyond the basics — say, a car breaking down or a kid breaking an arm. It could not budget for any of the things that a typical family might hope for: buying a new car, taking a summer vacation or welcoming a third child.

Despite a Supreme Court ruling aimed at reining in executive trade powers, U.S. households are facing a massive spike in trade-related costs.  

The average U.S. family is on track to pay more than $2,500 in tariff-related costs this year—a 43% increase from the $1,745 average estimated during the first year of President Donald Trump's second term, according to data recently released by the Joint Economic Committee.

No thoughts, etc...copy/paste. 

I am 100% certain that the link to your post in April, 2022 is another copy/paste. Which means you didn't predict or come up with ****.

People defending who they think they socially are after birth won't respect ancestors that know what they have always been since conception social debate between chromosomes vs context, context always avoids actual time alive discussion.

Fairly banished for not staying on topic of a one track narrative to a specific conclusion created by social consensus in history running up to current events, specific talking point isolated to one specific detail that existed in one rotation of the planet not everyone alive was attending the event because people prefer to believe life isn't self evident time alive since conception.

I think these examples are representative. 

Do the words mean something other than what I think they mean?

Where is the text?

The provided text has a reading level consistent with College Graduate or Post-Graduate (Grade 16+). The analysis is dense and intellectually demanding, requiring a sophisticated vocabulary and the ability to navigate complex social and historical subtexts.

Remember, there is absolutely NO CONTEXT where I would run from you.  Capsicé?

He pulls that **** on me incessantly. Instead of having the balls to make a stance, he hides behind questions that demand me to make his stance for him.

Why does food cost so much? Experts say painfully high food prices, and ongoing inflation more generally, help explain why many Americans are down on the economy despite low unemployment, rising wages and steady economic growth. Inflation is expected to continue slowing this year, with the National Association for Business Economists on Monday forecasting that the Consumer Price Index (CPI) — a basket of common goods and services — will decline to an annual rate of 2.4% this year, compared with 4.1% in 2023 and 8% in 2022  IBID

power of suggesting possibilities life isn't self evident and what people choose to believe true beyond their actual time evolving in plain sight since added into being alive daily here.

Real time alive and the social reality of living as a society of people pretending living is a gift, not a genetic result currently here.
Need to instinctively understand why life is proportionately present and intellectually how to control social outcomes of ancestors existing cradle to grave one day at a time. every heart beat, every breath, every idea tomorrow can be better than total sum of what arrived so far.

Specificity of details is why, how, what, where, when, which, whom is who in charge and those following orders. Geology, geometrics, geographics, genetic outcomes compared with incoming replacements.

Balance point for each time lived and duration existed by second/heart beat, minute/breath, hour between dawn, noon, dusk, midnight, day, week /lunar quarter phase, month/new moon to new moon, seasons/siblings/cousins, year winter solstice to winter solstice regardless Northern or southern hemispheres, decades/ generation gaps in each ancestral lineage of any species native to a planetary food chain.

Self evident results between both molecular content and cellular displacement of objects here now. Time existing or existed, space occupied when existing as gaseous, liquid, mineral, plant, animal, predatory, prey, asexual, male, female body type reproducing or reproduced in cycles of never duplicated results inhabiting space now as specifically animated by perpetual motion expanding details never duplicating contracting results regardless size, shape, universal time displaced here now.

Power doesn't exist without energy. Energy cannot be created or destroyed when balancing out never duplicated details currently taking place so far.
Intellectual minds obey ideas shared for generations lived so far. Brain navigates a body uniquely alive as currently displaced ancestrally present one at a time.

self evident results. People make believe nobody knows more than social consensus provides daily here. A faith always educated to each generation forward something supernatural controls tomorrows 7 days a week 1460 rotations between each February 29 is an artificial time that never existed in history outside human behavior so far.

the irony between people gaming life, shaming ancestries, blaming every other ancestral lineage but their own, flaming each ancestor born into each generation gap with what have you done for us lately.

We the people believe life is more than time adapting here now. Tyranny starts and ends with the species doing this all the time. Humanity does it all the time in recorded history of human behavior of each ancestor lived cradle to grave so far.

Oh! did I forget this was a PG thread and this post won't remain in NHB for more than an hour. Took less than 20 minutes. ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha. How persons trying to control people cradle to grave react to instinctive honesty is so predictable.
