@AppleSupport super disappointed that I was quoted a price for a Neo and told, “my quote is good for 30 days” to find out he lied and apple support didn’t care either and didn’t want to honor the price either from 11 days ago.

Why do people believe that taxing billionaires more is suddenly going to fix all of our problems?
In 2025, the federal government spent $1.8 TRILLION more than they made in tax revenue. If we instituted a 100% wealth tax and confiscated all the stock holdings of Elon Musk, Larry Page, Jeff Bezos, Sergey Brin, Larry Ellison, and Mark Zuckerberg you would be able to balance the budget… for one year. What are you going to do the year after that?
Assuming a 5% wealth tax per year, taxing those 6 billionaires would raise $94 billion. That means the deficit would be $1.7 trillion instead of $1.8 trillion. Meanwhile all those guys lose control of their companies. What exactly does that solve?
We can’t tax our way out of this situation. Cracking down on waste, fraud, and abuse is essential.
Private equity is CASHING OUT as tax payers are being robbed.
Private equity started to buy up all the fire and ambulance truck manufacturers increasing the cost of not only essential equipment, but also property taxes.
Three big companies own the market- one is foreign owned. They are also buying up all the parts manufacturers giving an illusion of choice when you seek out a mom and pop supplier.
When will enough be enough?
Yesterday at church the Bible readings started on page 66-67 of the missal, and my 5-year-old went absolutely nuts repeating "six seven" like 10 times. And now I think we need to make this narrow exception to the first amendment and ban these numbers forever.
🚨 RFK Jr. Warned Us About BlackRock and the 50-Year Mortgage!
“BlackRock wants to be everybody's landlord and everybody's neighbor.”
“By 2030, these giant corporations are on track to own 60% of the single family homes in our country.”
“Monthly mortgage payments for homebuyers are up 20% just in the last year, and that's because interest rates have doubled. The cost of the average home has gone from $250,000 to $400,000 just since 2019.”
His plan to fix this?
Allow young Americans to COMPETE with BlackRock, not enslave them with debt for the rest of their lives:
Rising housing costs caused "51% of the total fertility rate decline between the 2000s and 2010s, and 7 percentage points fewer young families in the 2010s."
RFK Jr. October 2024: Novo Nordisk is “counting on selling Ozempic to Americans because we’re so stupid and so addicted to drugs”
RFK Jr. October 2025: With GLP-1 drugs, Americans will lose “125 million pounds by this time next year”
The U.S. should NOT use propaganda on our citizens, but that prohibition was lifted in 2013!
Thank you @RepGosar for cosponsoring HR 5704 to repeal the 2013 Smith-Mundt Modernization Act.
