I don’t blame them. People can’t afford Bidenomics. I see people complaining all the time but elections have consequences.

I make a lot of money, so I am weathering it just fine. I am just not able to save as much as I would like.

As I said previously, I am not a fan of Trump but groceries were much cheaper under Trump. The cost of items was cheaper under Trump.

I can’t think of any way my life was worse under Trump.

    If you choose to live in a high tax state, that is your choice.

    If you choose to live in a state that receives a substantial portion of its operating funds from Federal grants, that’s your choice. It’s not my obligation to fund your lifestyle through double state taxation.

    I’d favor an end to SALT deductions if we also ended all Federal grants to states. Agree? Oh, but you probably live in Florida, a state funded largely by placing a burden on all other Americans.

    You don’t vote Republican.

    I do and have. But why would I continue to, when they raised my taxes and insist on lionizing incompetent losers like Trump? Joe Biden wins. Why wouldn’t I follow the winner?

      What state do you think operates primarily from grants? I am not aware of any.

      Oh, but you probably live in Florida

      Look at my name. I live in Oregon. It’s not that hard to figure out.

        Did I say “primarily”? You keep responding to points you’re imagining.

        I live in Oregon.

        I mean, I’m not actually a frog.

          then what did you mean by this statement? What do you call substantial ?

          I mean, I’m not actually a frog.

          The jury is still out on that.

            “More than insubstantial.” Does plain English just puzzle you, or something?
