“The rest of mankind who were not killed by these plagues still did not repent of the work of their hands; they did not stop worshiping demons, and idols of gold, silver, bronze, stone and wood–idols that cannot see or hear or walk. Nor did they repent of their murders, their magic arts, their sexual immorality or their thefts.” Revelation 9:20-2Heh, tax break, political “contribution” (bribe) - if it spends, it’s all good. That 180° flip flop he did on TikTok would have tipped off any sentient follower he might have had. But apparently sentience isn’t an attribute that can be found among the MAGAts.He's the guy that will suck up to any major corporation for a tax break at the drop of a hat.
The funds are being spent on a PUBLIC bridge for use by the PUBLIC. What part of "get that bridge back up ASAP" do you not understand?Or it might just be a slight difference in ideology. That I would rather seek out the facts first before running instantly for never ending federal funds at all our expense that Biden will use to enhance his political campaign.Yes. There is a very serious investigation already underway, into this bridge collapse. I read that one big problem with the bridges that were built decades ago, is that ships are getting larger and larger, making it more difficult for them to safely pass under some of these older bridges. That ship lost all of its power, making it impossible to steer it away from the bridge. I'm sure that will be thoroughly investigated.Take your pick of 50 states then. I live in Missouri and I don't think I should pay taxes to support a Maersk fuck up either.The fuck does that mean? That doesn't relate AT ALL to my response, it's just more noise.You mean like the Maersk employee who got fired for reporting safety violations to the Coast Guard getting swept under the rug?Wow, talk about noise
You said Idaho shouldn't be on the hook for anything, as if they aren't already on the dole.
I don't know if there will actually be an investigation into why this boat ran into a bridge. Maybe not if Brandon is going to have the whole country paying for it. But if you do actually see an investigation and Maersk is giving secret testimony under closed doors, thats a good clue what is really happening.
You're also not thinking about the fact that a huge amount of supplies depended on that bridge to transport them to places where they are sold, so many parts of the country need that bridge, not just Baltimore. The destruction of the bridge could increase inflation, due to the shortage of supplies that will result from the lack of a good route to get them where they are needed. Surely, you understand the basics of supply and demand! If not, I suggest you do some reading on basic economic principles. It's really not that hard.
Your views are very shortsighted. I don't think you understand how things like this work and how important bridges and other transportation routes are to the economy of the country.
Of course a sitting president will use "I got that bridge back up" in a campaign because it's a fucking accomplishment. So fucking what? You what? Want Baltimore to be suffering without that bridge to own the Dems or something?
