Kaz, you want others to do the work. It seems you're only interested in trying to lure someone into saying something and then fabricating what they mean.
I'm better off because of what my wife and I are doing, not because the governments (Federal, State or local) have made my life better.
It never bothered you before to speak for others.
Perhaps if you spent more attention to what want from us we could be more applicable.
Is my life better. Absolutely. I’d choose old and decent to old and mean any day of the week. I am more at peace.
I wouldn’t trade lives with anyone I know. If you think you’re better than me,‘I could care less. My personal philosophy is that I am a good as you,’but I am not less then you. It does take a community. Some are bad actors and need to be weeded out. Others need a helping hand.
Some can’t help themselves,‘but they are not less than those that can. Being pro life means being for everyone, even someone like the Trumps.

Certainly was! It was dubbed the 'Black's Rd Ripper'.
Funny thing is that in the 18 years I've lived here I have yet to see a possum... well, a live one at any rate. There are plenty of possum pancakes on the roads of course.
Yes. And I'm looking to be still better off in the next six months. My employer made me apply for my supervisor license, which means I have to be promoted to a senior tech, which means an automatic 5% raise. And my investments are doing just fine, having reached that inflection point where the account balances grow more than I put in as contributions. I have a reliable car that sips gas. I finally had to fill up last week. It cost me a whole $25, which will last me about a month. My living conditions haven't changed. They are fine. I finally had a meltdown at work, and the result of that was some very much needed time off (paid), and a promise to start getting the legally mandated mid-shift break I haven't gotten since I took my current position about 4 years ago. Improvements at work and in my finances, no change in my overall health. I haven't gotten COVID, probably because I'm fully vaccinated (2 initial shots plus one booster). I need new shoes (too lazy to go shop for them) and new glasses (same thing). I don't have an SO, which is no change and totally a good thing. I don't want an SO. I already finished my christmas shopping. And I no longer have to worry about what idiot thing Trump and his cronies will get up to next.
November inflation at 6.8%, highest in nearly 4 decades.
If you got a 5% raise you're losing ground.
If you're getting the 5.9% Social Security raise you're still losing ground.
How much higher are gas prices where you are?
Take an economics course and study the causes of inflation, dumb ass.
I always think it's funny when Chuck uses an emoticon that points at himself when he resorts to insult. "Take an economics course and study the causes of inflation, dumb ass.", indeed.
The irony remains delicious.

Nice that it pleases your palate.
There’s a 24 month surge in demand a with a bottle necked supply chain. None of this is any political person’s fault.
