Some Intolerable Actions-Beliefs of the Leftist Crowd

"Birthing person" is one of the many distracting bits of crap thrown on the table by the left- to veil the many true disasters they don't know how to deal with. The ship is sinking, they are arguing about the wording on the menus. Petty, irrelevant things like this continue to be the lefts focus- yet exploding crime, border crisis, massive inflation and sheer stupidity in governance (those ARE genuine crisis) is way down their list. It seems you fail to understand that having your priorities confused like that is a guarantee of disaster.

Your genuine crisis is- Republicans not agreeing with that? Seems so. That's worse than pitiful.

 

The border crisis is the same now as it was under Trump. The difference is Trump let Mexico do the dirty work. If you find that OK that just means your turning a blind eye to the problem. Crime might be "exploding" compared to last year because last year everyone was in some sort of lockdown so.....no surprise there. There is no massive inflation. There is inflation but it mild. "Stupidity in governance" is vague and I'll just pass that off as things not going the way they would if you were in charge....which really doesn't mean anything.
Republicans don't agree with anything and haven't for a decade and have no policies much less ideas on how to fix anything. You're the perfect example of that. You list complaints and offer no solutions. Hell, anyone can do that.

 

Border crisis no worse? Check the numbers, and that claim proves to be- hogwash. Even the presidents of other countries are laying the blame on Biden's changes.

No massive inflation?
A 2013 Toyota pickup truck I bought in 2014 is worth as much today as I paid for it.
A house valued at $200K to years ago is now valued at $441K. Another bought by a grandson for $100K less than two years is listed at $183K today.
OSB building sheet lumber is down to $41 from a high of $80 recently. 18 months ago it was $8. Cost of a roll of household wiring has increased 600% in two years.
There's a thousand examples. While government says inflation is 4.2%- Private financial institutions say 10-13%.
Fed interest, which is used to control inflation- sits at 0.25%. Home mortgage rates sub 3%. These are manipulations- massively out of balance BY STUPID GOVERNANCE.
These conditions will soon have a massive collision. When interest rises to 3-4%, all those mortgage lenders will be underwater.

When forbearance and subsidies end, foreclosures will explode- and the price of houses will prevent those people, as well as first time buyers- from buying again.
Thus investment giants like Blackrock are buying thousands of homes at above market prices right now- preparing for a huge rental market of people who can no longer qualify to own their own homes.

Christ, man- the huge red flags are everywhere. This is real world, not make-believe. Increases in crime have no precedent in history- and covid does not make people criminals. That's failure of values, of enforcement, of support for law and order- and that's governors and legislative bodies lacking the balls to do their job, and surrendering to anarchists; people who will attack anyone who opposes them.
Todays news includes a report from a North Korean defector, who's been here about 15 years now- very alarmed, telling us that the US is rapidly shifting and mirroring the policies of North Korea

It's going to get a lot worse. Bad as things are- it's going to hit the fan a lot more.

Stupid governance results from stupid voters buying BS promises and putting stupid people in political office. We have a president that is scared to answer a question that's offhand, and fears his handlers will be mad if he does- which they do because they know he can't speak openly without looking foolish. Why? Because that's the best he can do.


The handwriting is on the wall.

 

First, the border numbers are past tense. Second, even Trump had mass crossings when he took office. It's a cycle with administrations.
Inflation
Your truck is worth what someone will pay for it. If you think you can sell it for what you paid for it.....tip of the hat, but I'm safe that's not going to happen
Lumber prices are a glitch from the pandemic (but you knew that) and are going down.....as you pointed out.
Aren't houses supposed to go up in value and good for your grandson. Buy low, sell high....but nothing to do with inflation. Housing markets have been volatile for over a decade.
Fed interest rates plummeted at the start of the pandemic and have leveled off now so.....
Two of your examples are pandemic related and are turning around so your arguments are......mostly misleading to false.

 

Come back when you can discuss reality. So far- you have done nothing but dodge it. I'm not impresses with that skill. Nobody is.

 

I'm dodging. Interesting. You give examples, I give answers as to why you are wrong and you're counter argument is a childish (to use your word) dodge. A typical response to someone that doesn't have a counter argument. Sad.

 

You've given no examples, nor a damn thing that makes sense. What's to "counter" to babble?
You're not alone, a lot of the lefties do the same thing. Bitch about everything, fix nothing.
Come back when you can discuss real things.

 

Dodge.

 

Only to you
"Babble?" Did you ever proofread your posts. Much ado about nothing. All sound and fury signifying nothing.
I take that back. They aren't sound and fury.....more........self righteous nonsense.

 

Dodge: To avoid something by a quick movement or shift.
As in, pretend it's not so, didn't happen, was irrelevant.....

Not nonsense to the person who relies on it, of course.

 

That's the lefts explanation for most things that really matter these days. Actual discussion of genuine issue? They're not going there.

 

Nope. He tossed it out there and you ran right into it. Dodge fail on your part.
