But has strong opinions on.Originally Posted by Jim Moscheck
LOL. That and and his comments in the video I posted about how tough he was going to be concerning classified documents. You know, the one that Greg didn’t watch and just like the indictment he didn’t read.

Do you always make a habit of arguing for two days straight about things you don't have strong opinions about?Originally Posted by Greg Shaffer
There you go with the assumptions too.... Yes I have an opinion, I wouldnt call it a strong one lol
Frankly I would not like to see Trump back in office because of the sheer divisiveness it would involve, but if the only alternative is Biden then bring him on.....
Nice To See, Trump Ignores MargiePosted By Brian McFarland |
I'm with Jim on this one. Trump walks by MJG and doesn't say anything to her and that's news? Not hardly. It's an interesting observation at best. Why anyone would care about this observation is a mystery to me. This is just a blogger trying to create something out of nothing. For what, more views?Originally Posted by Rod Kaufman
That's what's you got? A background behind the guy that you don't like? Are you just horsing around here?
Getting back to the story, do you think Trump just overlooked Marge in her flaming red dress?
The GOP Plan For Student Loan DebtPosted By Brian McFarland |
That sounds reasonable to me. I took out student loans to help get through college and I paid them back early. College students are adults, and adults are responsible for themselves.Originally Posted by Rod Kaufman"Senate Republicans are unveiling their own plan to tackle student debt as the Supreme Court is set to rule soon on Biden’s student debt relief program."

So, basically, the gist of the plan is that the colleges have to tell students that they're taking on serious debt and it's up to students to pay it back...

I agree with this 100%.Originally Posted by James Brown
Me too. Although I did not pay back early. I just paid them back on time, for the first 10 years of my career.
If I were king, I would do my best to make trade schools and many community college programs free. We need more skilled labor in the various trades, computer science, hospitality and so on. We do not need more graduates with all sorts of arts and humanities degrees. Especially advanced degrees. I think it is a reasonable exercise of governmental policy to have policies favoring schooling in fields with a huge need for workers vs. fields where no one can get a job.
By the way, I like music, the arts, and literature a lot. I do not think that only rich kids should have the opportunity to be musicians, writers, or have fulfilling careers in the arts. (I must know 1/2 dozen young, hopelessly unemployed musical theater majors, through my kids) The need for diverse representation in the arts can be addressed by talent-based scholarships in the arts and humanities for those who can demonstrate the talent required to make a career of it.

Assuming "you guys" includes me, why would you think that because I support the notion of full-grown adults paying off their debt obligations, means I support any other GOP plan?Originally Posted by Rod KaufmanWell, here's another GOP plan that I'm sure you guys will support:
"House GOP starts costly effort to save cuts for wealthy in Trump tax law":
"The House Ways and Means Committee this week progressed a bill to revive several expired corporate tax breaks in the 2017 Trump-GOP tax law. That law — which mostly benefited the rich — made certain components temporary to lower the cost of the package to fit congressional budget rules. These provisions were meant to partially pay for other handouts in the law, most prominently a 40 percent cut in the corporate tax rate. Now House Republicans want to keep the rate cut and reopen the loopholes as well."

The GOP Plan For Student Loan DebtPosted By Brian McFarland |
I know, I was joking about us getting our money back. I have no complaints, either. I worked while in school and received the G.I. Bill. Even though I lived on my own in my own apt, my loans were not that big. It was a lot of fun and a lot of work!Originally Posted by James Brown
The statute of limitations has run for us old codgers, Brian, and I have no complaints about my loan. Law school in Indiana in 1983 was quite affordable. I worked too, my loans were smallish. It was a fun time.
The kids who really get screwed today under the Biden plan are those that worked a job or two during school rather than taking the loans. Meaning the most responsible of all students, without exception.

I think I lost your point here.Originally Posted by Rod Kaufman
Because corporate America pays its fair share. The GOP says so and they wanna make it permanent. Who could argue with that?...

Thank made me laugh.
Naw, Richard is probably on maneuvers somewhere with a militia preparing to defend Trump from the dark state.
Darn, is that considered a name call? You know how he doesn't like that.
Oh darn, again, now Rich is in my head. Oh, woe is me. Greg will now call me out on it. Here's a LOL <snort> for Greg and afor Richard (as he so does love his emojis).
