But unless there’s a recession they are screwed.

As employment goes up, so do corporate profits and growth, and the budget deficit falls from higher revenue and lower poverty spending.  It’s a virtuous cycle that lifts all boats.

Until the next recession, which will fall from a clear blue sky.  They always have.

But they never last long.

If I remember correctly...Reagan won 49 out of 50 states. He lost Minnesota which was a close call.

Sounds like the economy can't handle any more good news, fruitcake. 

If stocks tumbled, all fox needs to do is REPORT THAT.

It's on the left to spin - as you have just demonstrated, fruitcake.

NPR was talking recently about the continual rise of single folks
sharing apartments and how good it was for a more
communal and "family" feel in neighborhoods.

I think they call that SPIN

 MOST OF THE JOBS BIDEN HAS CREATED HAVE COME FROM AMERICAN'S MASSIVE SPENDING SPREE ON GOODS AND SERVICES, BUOYED BY MASSIVE COVID STIMULUS PACKAGES. MANY OF THE JOBS WERE RETURN POSITIONS POST COVID THAT DON'T ACCOUNT FOR AN ACTUAL INCREASE IN EMPLOYMENT FROM PRE-COVID.

That is a problem.

Of you live in a little town, the first sports people love is the boy’s high school football team.

And trans girls, aren’t a threat there.

But the Democrats **** up supporting young boys turning into girls and getting in girl’s sports.

For a lot of those people girl’s sports are the most important thing in their lives.

Biden can’t change that, though.

I doubt anyone can, at this stage.

https://heritageaction.com/toolkit/stop ... ule-change

But Biden’s latest regulation directly attacks women’s sports by requiring schools to allow males who self-identify as female to compete.The Department of Education writes about their new rule: “Under the proposed regulation, schools would not be permitted to adopt or apply a one-size-fits-all policy that categorically bans transgender students from participating on teams consistent with their gender identity.”The Biden administration is playing a deceptive game with women’s sports. Their rule insists males must be allowed to play in women’s schools unless a school can demonstrate to the Department of Education how it will jeopardize the physical health of young women.

-----------------------------------------------------

https://www.heritage.org/gender/heritag ... ens-sports

Doescher: From The Heritage Foundation, I'm Tim Doescher and this is Heritage Explains. Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 is a federal law prohibiting sex based discrimination in any educational program that is federally funded, either directly or indirectly. It ensures there are safe and equal educational opportunities for girls and women. Of course, one of the hottest issues surrounding Title IX has to do with sports. Recently, President Biden has proposed changes to Title IX to redefine sex, to include gender ideology.Doescher: Now, at this point, we're all familiar with Lia Thomas, the biological man identifying as a woman who gained clearance from the NCAA to compete against biological women. While we want to acknowledge how sensitive this issue is for many, we wanted to focus on the impact this change would have on women and their right to be protected under Title IX. Here's just a contrast. First, here's Lia Thomas in an interview on SwimSwam. The host asked Lia about having pride in breaking records.

The Biden administration proposed Thursday a new federal rule change that would allow for schools to enforce some restrictions on transgender student athletes, but opposes policies that “categorically” ban those students from participating on sports teams consistent with their gender.“The proposed rule would establish that policies violate Title IX when they categorically ban transgender students from participating on sports teams consistent with their gender identity just because of who they are,” according to a public notice from the US Department of Education.

And the COWARD @maineman  , puts people that KICK HIS *** MASSIVELY on "ignore" as if that somehow, magically, makes his post totally relevant. Little does he know, it makes him look like the LEMMING POS he really and truly is.

AND it only shows how much he DESPISES TRUTH over POWER and his "power" is limited to how many times he can pimp out his wife and daughter!! That's his "supplemental income" to his gubbment check.
