False; birthrates in the US have been on a slow decline for 70+ years.
No shit Sherlock, but the overall lack of "family values" picked up major steam during Biden's term.

Clueless. Absolutely clueless.
Talk to any kid of childbearing age in their 20s about why they aren't having kids.
It has literally ZERO to do with your idiotic, delusional opinion.
It has everything to do with the COST of healthcare, hospitalization(babies), daycare, homes, cars, food and education.
Throw in fears over climate change as well as gun related violence in general society and schools.... and there you have it.
This is a generation of kids who have grown up ducking/covering under desks in shooter drills. It scared the sh** out of them.
There have always been gays, lesbians and trans people and always will be.
You and your ignorant ilk are trying to push them back into the closet and it ain't happening.
More AR15s is the answer though. 🤡
Democrat created calamities are always due to factors out of their control. 🥸🤡
Looks like the very definition of a DEI hire.
Capt. Rebecca Lobach.ROTC at UNC Chapel Hill.28 so figure 6 years since graduation.Two years of flight schoolSo only 4 years flying after getting wings.She was PIC during flight that killed 67.She makes Captain in 4 years -- during which time she was 2x Platoon Leader and 1x Company XO. 450 hours of flight time -- but others here have noted that a helo pilot comes out of flight school with about 200 hours and those count towards total. So only 250 hours after flight school?? 4 years?Noted in the statement the family put out, she was a "certified" "SHARP" counselor -- that stands for "Sexual Harrassment/Assault Response and Prevention Program." Has no relationship to flight proficiency.She was also a White House Social Aid -- a voluntary program where she attended White House functions in full dress uniform as an Army Aviation representative. Again, has no relationship to flight proficiency.Her family scrubbed her social media, but some social media of friends seems to confirm she was a member of the LGBTQ community.She was on an "ANNUAL" proficiency check ride for a night time flight down the Potomac. Was this her FIRST nighttime "annual" checkride?Someone with a Army Aviation background please say this is "normal." Because it doesn't look very normal to me.
She might not have flown much at all the last 2 years. Wild.
I think 86% of Monticello receives some form of government assistance.
I consider myself belonging more with the island of misfit toys. What I want from government is a government that protects its most vulnerable, but doesn't stymie the most ambitious and those that are willing to take chances.
To answer your other thing about why "I" cannot help Monticello. That's a good question. Probably a lack of ambition on my end. There's potential there, but being so far away from the Interstate hurts.
Exactly. He'd make everyone poorer. Billionaires did so, by and large, by providing value to people commensurate that great wealth creation. They are/were responsible, directly and most importantly indirectly, for infinitely more wealth creation than they've consumed.I think you misinterpreted my sarcasm. Billionaires don't become billionaires without ambition and ingenuity in whatever field they achieve that status through. You want people to have ambition and ingenuity and drive, but not be able to profit handsomely off of it. If you stymie the opportunity for potential wealth achievement, you stymie the ambition. You want people to create and innovate then want to shit on them when they actually succeed.
Birth rates actually went down slightly more in Trump's first term than Biden's but keep up the good fight of that boogeyman. Do you ever actually look for facts before you make up sh!t?No shit Sherlock, but the overall lack of "family values" picked up major steam during Biden's term.
Certainly leftist females, especially the L version, tend to be uglier than a normal hot conservative female. You can argue that hot conservative females have "Attractive Privilege." I hear ya. Its tough to be fat and ugly....and too lazy to try to work at fixing it.To be fair I was just responding to this idiotic comment attempting to explain why birth rates have gone down. You jumped on his bandwagon and blamed something which has nothing to do with it : "women who try to be dudes, dudes who try to be women, increase of fat, ugly, lesbians, underage girls who were mutilated and can no longer have children, etc.
Who's a leech fool? Paid into my state and federal retirement my whole career just like everyone else.
Are you gonna donate your Social Security back to the government? If not, then keep sucking too leech boy.
BTW... Better hope those young immigrants are paying into your SS cause it's gonna run dry without them with a zero birthrate in the US. 😂
Canada produces a lot of heavy tar sand oil in Alberta. US refineries (mainly Midwest) are designed/set up to handle that stuff (because they expect it based on contracts) vs. thin TX oil which is more valuable because it can be refined easier by less sophisticated refineries that exist in a lot of places. We can also handle sour/high sulfur crude. For US refineries to switch to better crude would take design changes & time. Net, we need that cheaper thick oil. Helps to keep our gas prices down. Strange that we produce more oil than we use, but we're set up for the poorer quality stuff in part because we create much added value from refining it. So we export too.And they need our market access to sell it. They have the population the size of Cali. Without access to the other 49 too, they will be swimming in their own lumber and oil. They will be a good dog and come to heel.
Yes I missed the sarcasm, but should have picked up on that. A million dollars in a money market account last year, would have generated 50k dollars in passive income. Tens of millions of dollars can create financial stability for generations to come. Why does people need billions of dollars of assets? I rags to riches stories where folks create something and are able to live extremely well as a result, but why does the 11 richest people in the US deserve 1 trillion dollars? That's my major gripe with our form of capitalism. Change the rules and tax these billionaires whenever they take loans out on unrecognized stock gains and provide some safety nets for the bottom 50%.I think you misinterpreted my sarcasm.

Those billionaires wouldn't come close to the wealth acquired without big breaks from the US government. Yes, the Waltons and Bezos creates thousands of jobs, but how many of those employees need to work multiple jobs to make ends meet. In just 10 years, Bezos wealth has ballooned from 20 billion to 250 billion. That is just obscene considering how many employees need government assistance on top of their wages.Exactly. He'd make everyone poorer. Billionaires did so, by and large, by providing value to people commensurate that great wealth creation.

This is what people want. Funding and aid for Palestinian refugees? I can't think of a worse way to waste money, than giving anything to people who want to see the fall of the United States.

Not sure if posted, the several DOGE employees working day and night were doxxed with names, addresses, and threats I believe as well. Here they are called little boys and it says their moms need to come get them.
DOGE is doing God's work, pissing off all the right people:
If you don't think this sudden social shift among the younger generations towards the whole trans and gender confusion nonsense, where close to a quarter of Gen Z now identify as something on that spectrum of nonsense, doesn't play at least a part in birthrates going down, then you're lost.To be fair I was just responding to this idiotic comment attempting to explain why birth rates have gone down.

An added responsibility Marco hadn't forseen a week or two ago.Marco Rubio now in charge.
They've been the arm of the WEF trying to enact it's BS tyrannical agenda in the US.I would like to see Trump shut down the UN bldg and make the organization move to another country. Raze the bldg or clear all of the spyware out of it and use it for something to help people. The UN has been a joke for years.
Yawn.Mark this one so I can say I told you so again when giving Musk and 6 other guys with no security clearance access to classified and sensitive personal info turns out poorly.
Say it out loud. We’ve given access to classified/personal data for every single American to the richest guy in the world and 6 of his uncleared friends. What could possibly go wrong?!
Would the world even notice if the UN was gone?I would like to see Trump shut down the UN bldg and make the organization move to another country. Raze the bldg or clear all of the spyware out of it and use it for something to help people. The UN has been a joke for years.
You going to celebrate when this unequal system creates the first trillionaire?That's a red herring/straw man argument... as is always the case for you people.
