Curious how many pure bloods we have on here.
 
Its hilarious you bring that up all the time and it does nothing for your point. Most Republican politicians are absolute garbage.
Yet you have no counter. Yes, it makes my point that he's preferred by garbage Senate Pubs - strongly.

So if most Pub politicians are garbage, which party do you support?
 
it is never as simple as cut spending. You have over a trillion dollars to make up just to break even. To tackle debt you have to have a surplus so you can pay down. right now that would mean like a 2 trillion cut to spending. That would be millions of jobs lost, states going bankrupt, seniors going bankrupt, and a massive stock market crash. Austerity can be much much worse than the debt your are trying to fight, ask Europe. A much healthier solution is freezing spending, growing the economy, increasing the revenue base, and gradually applying that to debt. But that takes 20 years of forward thinking and planning, something republicans are 1000% incapable of doing. A few Dems talk about doing stuff like that but i doubt any follow through.
 
This would have never happened in this country 10-15 years ago (or less)...especially in the Bible Belt DEEP SOUTH.

I think the Major should investigate to see if religion is a protected class and if the Department’s actions indicate it may not be able to be impartial as it deals with people who have religious beliefs that differ from the Major’s or that promoted by the Department. His own rationale places him, the Major, at risk of losing his job, if applied consistently.
 
Never got the Covid vaccine, never even thought about getting it. Hell I've never even got a flu shot in my life.
I unfortunately got the covid vax and I wish I didnt. I just hope for no serious side effects. I did have some minor side effects shortly after I got the vax but that's been it so far. Really wish there was a way to stick a needle in my arm that would suck the vax out. Oh well.
 
Wouldn't surprise me if she is running (knowing she will lose) but get a spot in Trumps WH assuming he won.

She was a pretty good UN ambassador...but I dont want her near the WH.
She's running to boost Desantis that is all. Ron can't debate so she's going to be his attack dog and likely VP if he got the nomination. Won't work.

Wonder if Lindsey is on the Trump Train so early in order to offset Haley. One...maybe he cares nothing for her, or two....he wants to be top dog Repub in the state?

My sister-in-law works in physical therapy...she had to get the shot because they are around so many patients, many of them older patients.

One of my nieces is in high school, what I really feel sad about is my sister-in-law told me that a year or two ago when the Covid madness was way worse than now, the high school gave the students a choice...if you get the vaccine you don't have to wear a mask all day, if you don't get it you do have to wear a mask all day. My niece hated the mask, as any normal person would, and got the shot.

Makes me mad cause all the real science says Covid is less harmful to kids and teens than the common flu. Hell I think at least 2 European countries saw more heart inflammation cases in teens then they had ever seen and quickly and honestly said the vaccine was of greater danger to them than Covid itself. We had no such honesty from our 'leading' medical people.

I'm glad I never got the shot but I guarantee you when I was in high school, if I was given the choice my niece was given...get the shot or wear a dumbass mask for 7 hours or so...I would have got the shot.
 
The SBA has a program targeted at immagrants to help them start their own or acquire existing businesses. Low interest and they can pass it to family members down the road. This is why you see so many Indian owned shops around.
Please tell us more because I'm unfamiliar with any SBA program for "immigrants". The main reason why Indians and east Asians own businesses is because they are hard working and entrepreneurial in nature. My FIL is from Korea and came here with nothing in the 70's. He ended up owning and running an Exxon station and several laundromats.

Unfortunately, most Americans are more used to working for someone else or getting government assistance than they are with the idea of starting their own business.

Here's a link to a relatively new ETF: ACVF

The American Conservative Values ETF (ACVF) is based on the conviction that politically active companies negatively impact their shareholder returns, as well as support issues and causes that conflict with conservative political ideals, beliefs and values.


The interesting part is the companies they exclude:

It’s called buyers remorse. I work with 4 guys which all got the shot after holding out. Three of the four wish they had not gotten it. All three are over 40 and have not had any problems. The one that doesn’t regret it is 29. The last three months he has developed several medical problems. Called in again today. Went to HR department and got FMLA. Last week.

Thank God the Supreme Court shot down Brandon on forcing employers to make their workers get the jab. Me and my wife would have walked away from our employer which both of us have over 30 years of service.
 
 
You just like arguing with people on here and thumping your chest about it. You don't even know what I said, what my position is, or who I am.

I don't care who you are. The logic and reason defines the debate, not the person.

Systemic racism can't be to blame for the plight of all people of color while also lauding the success of some minority groups due to their hard work and industrious behavior. Those two positions are inherently contradictory.

The truth is race has very little to do with anything. Your second position is the correct one: people if any race can and do often succeed when they are responsible and work hard.
 
So you can't Google "SBA loans for immigrants"?
I did but all I found was that SBA loans are generally reserved for naturalized citizens but immigrants here on visas or with green cards can also apply. I didn't see anything about a special SBA loan for immigrants.

They have 8a. ITs a certification that gives priorty access to a small subset of federal contracts and lots of free training and support. The SBA doesn't do the loans, they just guarantee them for people that meet their various programs. SBA loans take a very long time to get, mountains of paperwork. small buisness grants for minorities and immigrants are done at the state level.
