Anyone know why the Air Force has shut down a four mile stretch of Highway 71 in Nebraska for the last four days? They say it is for a Humvee crash that was loaded with ammo, but residents report seeing helicopters flying in and out of the quarantine area 24/7 and tons of personnel.

Anyone live around that area?
Is that near Offut?
 
I’m really shocked no one has liked your post. I mean Republicans have gotten such a fair shake in the debates the past three cycles.

Are you serious? He's from South Africa. It's like reverse birtherism. They accuse a black American of being from Kenya, but want a white South African to be our president. Wonder why...
He’s an African American by definition so don’t be all raysis. I’m guessing the person who posted that wasn’t thinking about that.
 
What's your favorite Dem economic policy?

Have you taken a look at states with the worst debt?

Here are the 10 states with the highest debt per capita:

  1. Massachusetts ($11,130.02)
  2. Connecticut ($10,927.73)
  3. Rhode Island ($8,406.29)
  4. Alaska ($8,215.89)
  5. New Jersey ($7,426.04)
  6. New York ($7,243.07)
  7. Hawaii ($6,888.93)
  8. Vermont ($5,623.79)
  9. New Hampshire ($5,614.61)
  10. Illinois ($4,938.57)

I don't see a lot of red states on there. HOW COULD THIS BE? Dems are geniuses at everything! Everyone knows if something is bad under Dems it's someone else's fault.

This is stupid. Using this logic would be like looking at the US and saying they're one of the most poorly economic performing countries in the world when by GDP we're #1 by 4 trillion the last time I checked. Per capita, maybe top 10? The US has a per capita debt of 58,000 while Venezuela has one of 7,000, Egypt 2,000, Russia 2,000. Based on your logic you'd rather be in those countries.

Moderate debt is typically an indicator of a powerful economy. Look at the per capita incomes of U.S. states and the per capita GDP and you'll likely see those same states you listed above as well as maybe TX and FL.

Shoot, CA, NY, and TX, if countries, would be top 10 countries per GDP.

Even as an individual we take on debt for all sorts of things: car payments, mortgages, etc. Prices are typically higher in those states you listed compared to poorer states that are typically led by Republicans. On the other hand, the wealthiest states are typically Blue, and no I don't think D's do better than R's or R's do better than D's, the business cycle is cyclical so it's really the luck of the draw in terms of who is in charge.**

Markets recently have performed better under Dems but 30 years ago and prior it really wasn't the case. Even the economy did well under 45 until Covid messed things over.

**minus tax cuts because those have always led to market turmoil

Thank Goodness that the Democrats are going to kill it in ‘22. I bet they gain at least 100 seats.

I'm keeping an eye on this as well but the news seems hush-hush about it. The crazies on reddit think it could be something bigger than just a crashed humvee with ammo though.

killed is an understatement

Read that wrong, Dem's will be killed and killed again in 24. If they actually rigged the 2020 election they should've done so with House and Senate seats to actually pass meaningful legistlation. Instead, they didn't pass much of anything and will be slaughtered, both by the outpouring of R's voting but also because D's are pissed nothing has been accomplished.

Are Dems pissed that nothing has passed or that they’ve went too far left?

Billy Windows and Markie Funkberg will throw out the Dropbox Dollars. Got to have that because of the obvious awesomeness that Dems do for the economy. I think you are underestimating America. I think the Dem candidates get over 600 million votes each in ‘22

Your sarcasm is funny but to answer your first question it's the former. The Dems in power right now aren't as left as the media wants people to believe and in comparison with say Europe or Canada Dems might not even be left of center.
