Oh - and uh - if you ask the average person whats more important in their lives - the social safety nets or Apple's stock repurchase plan its pretty much a no-brainer....unless you were a co-signer of the recent tax law changes.


I don't own any Apple stock, thus have no interest in the social safely nets or any stock buyback.

Poor old DonDiego lives in Tennessee;  in this case, does Kevin Lewis believe he derives a direct benefit ?

 What has happened to Obiden is exactly what will happen to the DemocRats in November.

 thats an easily googled fact.   But thanks for stopping by!"

 

Actually those figures result because of the differences in Government-accounting and private accounting.

 

Specifically the total Government administrative costs are actually higher - but distributed among other agencies, so the Medicare-overhead is understated.

So you're forfeiting your Social Security and Medicare?  Thats big.   And BS.

 

Do you have an interest in the federal deficit?    If so I suggest paying for the government's spending instead of pretending it pays for itself.

Of course. What goes around actually does come around.

There is no candidate named Obiden. Is this another spelling error or a cognitive error?

 

I guess what Stalker is trying to say is that the Democrats will lose to Bernie Sanders in November...? Yep, it's cognitive decline.

For the record, I am quite fond of Biden. Unfortunately, it looks to me like he is physically out of gas at this point in his life. I suppose if he would place second in Nevada and then first in South Carolina, he could get his campaign back on track. What you folks that want a "centrist" candidate are missing is that there are too many of them in the race splitting up the centrist vote. If Warren drops out after Nevada, Bernie will be even stronger. Pete and Klobuchar don't even have a national ground operation set-up at this point. Biden and Bloomberg are the only centrists with a national ground operation. 

 

Oh, Bloomberg got some congressional black caucus endorsements today.

Anyone considering to or voting for Biden is not playing with a full deck. That lying, thieving moron is senile and in the first stages of dementia.

And Trump is a mentally impaired fascist and a criminal. Anybody that would vote for him wants a system government like Nazi Germany and Mussolini's Italy.
